From an Empty Seat to a Captivated Crowd - Public Piano Performance

[@professorpopkiss]

That piano is so grateful, it will never forget this day. It was used for what it was made for.

[@reggienovenario2864]

That lady was there throughout the whole performance. She knew that was a free performance. 😊

[@DynasticDanny]

🙌

[@DeepestGrave1]

Crazy good bro! People here tend to forget the famous saying : Ludwig van Beethoven - 'To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable.'

[@DynasticDanny]

I looked into the quote regarding playing it fast, and couldn’t find anything on it. I might update that

[@niklaswirges9085]

But i cant hear any passion in this video. There are just the mistakes. And nothing else 😅

[@TimChampion1112]

wow, I love that! I wish my piano teaches years ago felt that way LOL

[@matt2sanders729]

Don't listen to the negative comments even though I'm sure you don't. The fact you pulled off these incredibly difficult pieces in front of an audience this size is beyond what most people can do. I can't believe you're sitting at 938 subscribers. I can almost guarantee the rude statements are from people who couldn't even do half as good as you just did. Bravo!!

[@kennyadgate]

as someone that played for years as a kid i never reached the this level of fluency absolutely flawless talent

[@medicropper]

I always have tons of respect for people playing on random pianos in public. I once played Rachmaninov prelude op. 23 no. 5 on a full size grand that was sitting in the center of the shopping mall, and my heart was pounding from nervousness.

[@DynasticDanny]

We can relate 💪 I want to learn more Rachmaninov

[@Ravioliyt]

no one mentions the amazing transitions between each song. you are playing very complicated, crowded songs. that must be hard for your hands just after one song, but you didn't even take a break. insanity! incredible skill.

[@DynasticDanny]

Appreciate your acknowledgement! Yes, that's an important aspect to address... As long as I stretch and warmup my hands/fingers for a few minutes before playing it should be alright. It's easy to become tense after a certain period of doing something as intricate such as the moonlight sonata 3rd movement. So I have to be aware of how it's feeling and to let it breathe. My practise sessions have been quite intense, where I do a plethora of repetitions. I get massages occasionally which helps significantly. Thank you

[@rodneymargera4977]

Passacaglia, one of my favourite pieces to listen. I wish there were more of it in one of these piano in public reactions. I easily listen to this piece for hours....

[@Doug.L]

Look up Yuki Piano, she also has several recordings of Passacaglia on public pianos.

[@DynasticDanny]

Oh 😭🙏

[@thebig12conference73]

To play a wrong note is understandable, to play without passion, is inexcusable, Beethoven. As an advanced classical pianist, I could relate he played with passion, well done. I can't believe there were idiots who would listen to this and just walk by, and not appreciate it. However, at least enough people did the guy is a classical MASTER. That is one of the toughest compositions to master, there are so many intricate details, it is easy to make an error.

[@jackietunberg5819]

Nothing like music to make the heart and spirit soar!

[@annanotheran2972]

Listened to this again. Superb Chopin Torrent at 6:00 - incredibly difficult to play with so many different techniques, very well done!

[@DynasticDanny]

🙌 Thank you so much! After lots of practise the eloquence makes a huge difference/impact

[@measnick8]

The number of jealous, whiny little shitheads making judgmental, pointless, negative comments is truly pathetic. Ignore the hating morons and keep on being amazing, man.

[@michael1704]

Awesome job being self taught, playing from memory and only 16 years/o. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Keep going!!! Question: how many years did it take you to become this good?

[@DynasticDanny]

Hi Micheal, great question and thanks for asking! My journey with the piano has been quite a rollercoaster ride. I’ve been casually playing since primary school - whenever I had a break, I’d sneak off to the piano rooms (I still do, haha) and mess around with a few pieces I picked up by ear and KZbin tutorials, like bits of Passacaglia and the first movement of Moonlight Sonata, as I have not yet acquired sheet music. The real learning began about four years ago, around 2020. I dove headfirst into the deep end by starting with Beethoven’s 3rd movement of Moonlight Sonata, a piece that’s notoriously difficult and a turmoil of sentiment. From there, eventually over time I worked on scales and technique. It’s been a lot of repetition, building routines, and staying consistent and disciplined. That’s how I’ve gotten to where I am now, and I’m still pushing to get better, almost every day.

[@michael1704]

@@DynasticDanny Thank you for your comprehensive answer. You should be very proud of your achievement. I’ve been thinking about teaching myself to play piano and that’s why I was curious about your journey. Best wishes for all your future endeavors.

[@joshuavitales-lanuza8319]

Bravissimo!

[@qbanlink25]

Beautifully played, well done, you're an inspiration.

[@gorinju]

I like your arrangement on the 3rd movement especially the ending !

[@DynasticDanny]

Thanks so much! It’s a truely powerful rendition… the ending is my original interpretation

[@chulk2764]

[@brucebenson5908]

Well done!

[@TheeJeffrocco]

Hopefully he is somewhere playing right now, and getting paid for his dedication.

[@eddyvideostar]

Dear TheeJeffrocco, Money is what it's all about. I pray for him and others. Some have applied KZbin and social media savvy to put the instrument "somewhere" -- even in the bathroom and dig up views and subscribers. --------------------- YT becomes the middleman. Place a camera and a mic, and one "becomes his own man" in the middle.

[@fennyofficial3621]

this guy should really be famous by now that was amazing on god

[@svoids]

Finally another public performance, awesome bro

[@DynasticDanny]

This time with a twist and even better articulation/eloquence! Thank you

[@AussieRoads]

Hey Danny Boy. Each time I watch I become more of a fan. Love your work and to think you are self-taught and at just 16, playing to that level just blows me away. I love seeing young people, especially through music, express themselves openly and kick goals. I just love it. Please keep it going young fella and don't forget to learn Danny Boy! I suggest anyone, who hasn't done so already, to subscribe to this channel, get Daniel up to at least 1,000 subs and start him on a new journey. I can only see this getting better. Catch up soon Danny Boy.

❤ 4 years self learning is possible. I recognized a young man who took 1 year to complete grade 8, and 1 more year to atcl. He also played this Beethoven Sonata 14- 3rd very well. Anyway you are a genius. ❤

[@DynasticDanny]

That’s beautiful to hear. I don’t often compare myself to my potential. There’s weeks when I don’t even practise. I could be so much higher. 🙌 Thank you

[@niklaswirges9085]

Actually, you can hear that hes still a beginner. Those pieces are not hard to play loud and dirty, but its very hard to play them beautiful.

Yikes at some these comments.. I really thought this was incredible and thought how cool it would be to see in person. Also made me realize it’s most respectable to stay till the end of performance if time allows, I can imagine the performer appreciates it. Great job.. hope you continue seizing public musical opportunities and posting them but please less zooming

[@maskinmannen]

Bro i get why you play those hard pieces nearing the end, it shows alot of skill. But in my opinion they don’t sound as good as the easier pieces you were playing more in the beginning. And to the audience who probably aren’t piano players will probably be more impressed by the slower popular songs like lalaland and golden hour. Although crazy playing!👏
