EPCOT Piano Medley Part 3 - Walt Disney World (Gijs Van Winkelhof)

[@gijspiano]

Hoi everybody! Thank you all so much for watching EPCOT Piano Medley Part 3! What is your all time favorite attraction at EPCOT?

[@EpcotCenter1982]

Favorite attraction is Soarin followed by Spaceship Earth. Must do’s every visit!

[@steveblazetich4427]

Horizons!!

[@maddiguilinger6328]

Soarin, or Test Track. Those have always been my favorite rides at Epcot 😊

[@liampetersen9062]

Spaceship Earth! Your medley was amazing!

[@mersghost]

Spaceship Earth, such a classic!

[@tremontidood]

Nostalgia overload! That Papillon track from Innoventions just takes me back

[@dlrpmagic]

Good job again Gijs. Even songs that I don't know or don't recognize here.

[@BASykes1701]

Yup. The American Adventure pieces got me. Amazing work!

[@TripAway2Day]

I was laid off because of Covid in 2020 for working at WDW. Epcot Guest Relations was a big part of my life. You made me CRY!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much for your comment! I’m so sorry you were laid off. I was at WDW in March 2020, and I saw so many cast members cry. I’m happy this medley brought back happy memories^^

[@acesenpai98]

Thank you for this, brought me right back to my childhood. Great memories

[@BismoBeerbelly]

Thanks! I've enjoyed all of these so much!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much for your tip!! I appreciate it very much. I’m very happy you enjoy my videos.

[@TheMrDisneyboy]

So good! I've loved each of the three EPCOT medley parts you've made--thank you for the beautiful music!

[@CameronTyndall]

10:23 Yesssss! 😎

[@andrewkarklins]

Amazing! Beautiful as always, thank you Gijs for putting this together!! 🎉

[@Sam4G0d]

Beautiful!

[@orlando_en_glenn]

Epcot is our favorite park in the world; this Piano Medley is so beautiful! Thanks Gijs!

[@Jite77]

You’re amazing!! 😍😍 This was so beautiful!! Thank you 🤗🤗

[@PipesAndMonocles]

THE COMPUTER SONG YAAAAAAY!!!! Awesome medley!!!

[@gijspiano]

This comment makes me so happy😃! The song is written by the Sherman Brothers and it’s so fun! It deserves to be in the spotlight 😊

[@handmadeheartears]

Such an amazing medley, you do such a great job Gijs! So talented 🙌🏻💖

[@johnwisniewski8712]

This was fantastic!!

[@s_tohno]

Love! Your T-shirt is also great🍊

[@bobcheapek4334]

Thanks to the beacons of magic, Spaceship Earth solidifies its dominance as the prettiest girl in school. Nice to see a lesser-known attraction listed here like the Astuter Computer Revue. I mean it even got its own Sherman Brothers song. Shame it ended up getting the distinction of the shortest-lived attraction as it ended up closing just a little over a year later.

[@blueeyedgirl1865]

You included such rare Epcot classics! I loved it all and will have this on repeat for sure.

[@ingeborgdonk]

Amazing as always! Thanks for sharing your talent with the world🌐

[@JakeCoasters]

Yep, I got emotional

[@Tallguy020]

It absolutely baffles me that almost all of these absolutely STUNNING musical masterpieces have now disappeared from Epcot forever... ☹️ Even the old area music loops have now all be replaced with new generic musical cues ones 😢. Thank god for youtube and specifically you Gijs for keeping this great music alive ! Absolutely fanatastic medley as always ! ❤❤❤

[@steveblazetich4427]

Another beautiful medley of great EPCOT music, most will be forgotten as attractions no longer exist. Thanks for playing these and other historic pieces!!!

[@GeorgeD3]

It's so great thag you keep this important music alive. Thank you. Sounds beautiful as always. Behind the Waterfall sounded so good!

[@brianlafrazia8237]

Awesome! My favorite music from my favorite park! Thanks for this!

[@Kirbyfan87827]

I've been waiting for a Part 3 since I first stumbled onto your channel and noticed a distinct lack of World of Motion themes. I thought perhaps you might deliver on the day of the 40th anniversary, but MartinsVids had that covered. Regardless, you did not disappoint! I didn't even know Journey Into Imagination HAD an unused song!

[@AmusementVision]

This is absolutely beautiful! It's really nice to hear the lesser known songs played on piano.

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much for your compliment! I love playing these lesser known songs, they deserve more attention.😃

[@vivianjohnson4039]

🎉

[@mkbiesiada]

tremendous!

[@TessaPayer]

Absolutely loved this medley!! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much Tessa! 😄🌐🎹

[@lawlee667]

The Beacons of Magic music is my favorite sound to come out of Disney.

[@maddiguilinger6328]

Wow phenomenal job Gijs. This brought happy tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for making me smile everyday. I really appreciate it. It helps me through those tough days. And as I always say. Thank you Thank you Thank youuuuu!!! 😂😂. Thank you so much. You are the best.

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much Maddi!! I’m happy you enjoyed it. 😃

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Thank you for including Behind the Waterfall from the Wonders of Life music loop! That and Wild Kids are my favorites from that loop. When it comes to Disney music to study to, the Wonders of Life loop is my go-to. And while I get HarmonioUS got hate because of the barges, I absolutely enjoyed it because of not only the inclusion of so many languages, but also because it ended with Someday from the Hunchback of Notre Dame credits. Someday is such an underrated, beautiful and inspiring song and if you listen to the Spanish version, it's even better.

[@rebeccapayer5540]

WOW!! Bravo Gijs! So beautiful! So many songs. Some I’d never heard before. The transition from one song to another was so smooth. From Harmonious to the end, I was crying. What an amazing medley! Loved it! So special! Thank you for sharing with us! ❤

[@KeepingtheMagicAlive]

Another masterpiece. I enjoyed this so much! As for my all-time favorite EPCOT attraction... I loved World of Motion, Horizons, and the original Journey Into Imagination, but I still love Spaceship Earth so much. Also love the American Adventure. I'm not good at choosing just one. :)

[@kellysymons6459]

omg On the Wings of the Butterfly is one of my faves

[@gijspiano]

I love it too! I saved the song for Medley 3!

[@CindyGage-x7z]

By Composer David Arkenstone and can be found on his 1994 Grammy-nominated album In The Wake of the Wind.

[@vivianjohnson4039]

The most amazing composition of Disney music and views ever! Others play it, you feel and convey it 👏🏻🤩💯💕

[@tango1k]

Yoooo part 3??? Thanks so much for this Gijs!

[@gijspiano]

Thank YOU for watching

[@denisetemplin4793]

What a wonderful medley of songs from Epcot! I love hearing songs from the past as well as the newer songs. Thank you for keeping the memories alive since we've been unable to make it to WDW since 2015 and we miss it!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much for your compliments, Denise! I'm happy it brought back beautiful memories! Hopefully you guys can go back soon!

[@vivianjohnson4039]

Just heard the first song. You play so beautifully. You add so much. 🥹👏🏻💕

[@gijspiano]

Thank you very much! I hope you'll enjoy the other songs too!

[@The-epcot-nerd]

You have summoned me? (3:56 good job on this ,I love this song)

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it! I have three Epcot medleys in total by the way 🎶

[@EpcotCenter1982]

What an honor it was to listen to that. I especially love the music of Future World and this absolutely hit the spot! Bravo!!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much Janet! It was so much fun to work on this medley, I'm passionate about all these themes.

[@disneyscott98]

Definitely favorite installment of this! Love the songs chosen and it definitely makes you miss the EPCOT of old. Even to people like me, who never got to experience the original 80s version of the park.

[@gijspiano]

Thank you Scott! I never got to experience the 80s version of the park, but I’m passionate about it and the music themes. It was so much fun to learn all these songs and to make one arrangement of them all.

[@martym61]

Spectacular! There were some songs in here that I'd never heard before. Such beautiful music was composed for Epcot. This medley has to be one of your best ever. I was blown away. So glad to hear music from Horizons (my favorite).The background was beautiful too. Thank you for all your hard work on this. I will listen to this frequently.😊❤

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much Marty! Horizons had such a spectacular soundtrack, I just had to include more of it in this medley.

[@ClouDancer99]

I think my favorite continues to be the innovations Plaza music… Papillon ❤

[@gijspiano]

I love it too! It makes me happy instantly.

[@CindyGage-x7z]

Papillon was composed by David Arkenstone and can be found on his 1994 Grammy-nominated album In the Wake of the Wind.

[@rubenl2518]

No one can pay a better musical tribute to EPCOT than you. You delight your viewers again. Amazing how all these melodies just flow so smoothly and how you've been able to memorize them all. Bravo, Maestro! Thank you.

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much Ruben! It such a fun project to dive into all these beautiful melodies, old and new!

[@grotekunst]

Great job, Gijs! I’m impressed by your medley! Spectacular!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you Papa Piet! :D

[@michele.the.quilter6174]

What a wonderful medley……thank you for your hard work. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 PROMISE is our favorite song from when we used to walk out of the park after IllumiNations! Our favorite country is Italy because of the shops & beautiful scenery. But we love all of EPCOT, esp. Spaceship Earth. I will watch this often and enjoy it. The photos were great too.

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much Michele! I love “Promise” too, it’s such a special song!

[@indeefteling]

Wow, super mooi Gijs! Top 👍🎹🎶

[@SoCalDork]

Yet another absolutely beautiful arrangement of some of the best Disney music!

[@gijspiano]

Thank you so much!! 😄🎹🌐

[@hayzerqb11]

Gijs! This is SO GOOD. Here's to another 40 years of EPCOT so you can do a part 4 😉

[@gijspiano]

Thanks Justin! Yes I hope there will be a lot of beautiful new songs in the future!

[@Starr888]

Thank you for taking us into the heart of EPCOT, and musically bringing its beauty & wonder to life! Awww, "Two Brothers", you played it so beautifully! So cool to hear "The Computer Song"!! What a gem, the unused "Journey Into Imagination" song is, it made me smile! Loved hearing Innoventions Plaza music, it evokes so many feelings from leaving the park at the end of fun EPCOT days, & walking over cement squares that were sparkling! Awesome, how you played World Of Motion Music, Followed by Test Track! "It's Fun To Be Free" was so good from World Of Motion, and I just wanted to jump into the ride, when I saw the photographs! Exquisite photography! What a beautiful finale, with dear Walt's photo while you played "One Little Spark" awwww! Great Horizons shirt! Thank you for sharing with us your love for EPCOT, in this incredible work of art that you have created for us, in this, your conclusion of your 3 part EPCOT on Piano musical journey. Thank you for preserving the music of EPCOT for us all to learn from and enjoy!

Is there any chance you could release sheet music, or a midi, or even just a video of what keys you press for the current spaceship earth theme? I have looked all over the internet and even tried to transcribe it myself, but have been unsuccessful.
