1Min, 10Min, 1Hour Challenge: Howl's Moving Castle | Kyle Landry

[@wavynocturne]

I'm absolutely thrilled you're taking on Kyle Landry's Version! it's definitely a piece I wanna play myself one day and I've been learning a bit of his stuff

[@lilCrown]

@@8kw7mx9 hard disagree

[@gabriel-ps6do]

@@8kw7mx9 So you're saying his version is a fail but he's a really good self tought pianist. Is anything not coming from a legend like Animenz a fail then ? Also, keep in mind this challenge is supposed to be somewhat doable, I'm not so sure she could learn Animenz's technique in an hour

[@ekasism]

@@8kw7mx9 personally, I dislike both. As I do with most of KL’s arrangements. They just get too complicated with too many added notes that take away from the feeling of the song and becomes a demonstration of skill. Edit: Even the girl in the video says that too much takes away from what the song is supposed to be.

[@erckupazo]

@@gabriel-ps6do this is more difficult than animenz

[@adrionsadler1834]

Her sight reading is so good. She sights read bass and treble clef at the same time fast.

[@heartofthekeys]

hi everyone! Hope you are all in Christmas Mood and ready for the holidays! Which Ghibli Movie is your favorite? Tell me in the comments:)

[@MusicalEssence]

I haven't actually watched any Ghibli films yet, but I absolutely adore their music. It's so beautifully composed and always manages to set the perfect mood.

[@gillyweed00]

Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, and Howl’s Moving Castle! (sorry i couldnt pick one 😔 theyre all so amazingly beautiful & impactful in their own ways!)

[@jobmeinders6034]

Nice challenge again today! Although nice, I would’ve loved to see a different arrangement…. This is, in my opinion, the best by far: kzbin.info/www/bejne/onOXgYWObJhqY5I But still a great job!

[@TheSunlex]

"Hotaru no haka" ("Die letzten Glühwürmchen") 😢

[@haidarahmad4062]

Bonyo 😊😊😊

[@kotsverslimme]

The strangeness of Howl's moving castle is what makes it the most spiritual and interesting Ghibli movie to me. And I absolutely love the music. Big thumbs up!

[@FRElHEIT]

My favorite is Spirited Away and Castle in the Sky

[@emilydoucet8474]

So happy that Kyle Landry is getting some love!

[@asianck]

He has so arrangements which enhances the original piece. They're so beautiful!

[@nhs.14]

Which version is the most popular? I love animenz version the most, but i wonder which version most people like

[@mattoucas869]

@@nhs.14 I like the first part of the Animenz version the most (when his right hand turns into a butterfly lol)

[@carolinm.3115]

Your 1min, 10min, 1h challenges are super interesting. I really enjoy watching them and every time I'm so amazed of how fast pieces can be learnt by sightreading if you're skilled and experienced enough. I hope to get there one day. I started playing and taking piano lessons 3 years ago and I'm still struggling with sightreading and especially rhythms often. Thanks for sharing these challenges, you're really inspiring. :) My favorite Ghibli movies are Spirited Away and Howls Moving Castle.

[@TheShortKin.g]

Well I've been having 8 years of piano lessons and I'm still struggling lol

[@KennyAMT]

Only professional pianists could do this... or an insanely gifted person with years of piano experience.

[@mitcherny6965]

Sight-reading is not THEE problem why people can't play the piano. You can memorise the whole piece and still not have the hands to play it well.

[@Anjoel]

Would love to see you do a full version of this - really interested in your interpretation and your sound is so clean!

[@thecarnegiedeli]

Kyle Landry arrangements have always terrified me too much to actually attempt them😂

[@jyll]

Same hahaha but I've attempted a few of his Disney arrangements, even if I can't play them 100%. His arrangements are very difficult.

[@izzyjamm4]

he sure loves his showy runs lol

[@angeloschellens]

Does anyone happen to have a link to said arrangement? Theyre a lil expensive

[@vincere13]

Kyle's arrangements have always been amazing. Good to see other music channels using the legend's work.

[@lilCrown]

This was so beautifully played! You need to upload a full version, I'm sure everybody would love that!!

[@algreen-nobubble]

Your channel is awesome. I had piano lessons as a child for 10+ years and was never really taught everything you talk about here, like how to actually REALLY study and learn a piece, how to improve different parts of your playing, the fingering and so on.. I could have learned so much more... also a big Studio Ghibli fan, I love Howl's moving castle ... strange, cool, crazy, thought provoking, fantastic...

[@flower_chain7098]

What…same! I’ve finished music school feeling like it hasn’t really taught me anything, and I only learned the pieces which I was assigned which was maybe 4 a year. I never knew how to properly learn or study a piece, and even after a year, my pieces sounded like they had no soul. Now, after finishing music school, I’m trying to learn piano ‘again’ - the right way

[@Lore_Piano]

Amazing work on that, love to see the Kyle Landry version of it. You impress me everytime on how fast you can learn a piece, and your playing is so good.. you bring always joy in my days. Thank you 🤍.

[@tibhamel]

I learned the beginning of this piece (exactly where you got to after 1 hour) years ago, and played it on and off since then. The first few notes have never sounded as crisp for me as they did for you on even your first go at it. And basically everything else was just so much better than anything I could have done. I got butterflies when you started playing after the 1 hour marks, because it was so amazingly beautiful, and that realising this kind of result was possible, maybe I should pick this piece back up and learn it properly sometimes.

[@let.itbleed]

Beautiful rendition of a beautiful song! I've seen and love all Ghibli films, but Howl's Moving Castle will always be my favorite.

[@cesaraquino4999]

I don't have any musical talent at all but I love how you bring life to music with your piano artistry. I hope you are a lot better by now.❤

[@Theantmang]

KYLE LANDRY AND YOU , ive watched kyle landry for over 12 years! Insane

[@Theantmang]

you should really check out kyle landry if you didnt! his improvisations are just amazing, some recs: improv - d-minor , also his approaching death - improv is just so emotional. amazing playing btw. So awesome ifound you on youtube, followe you on IG for awhile now

[@secondcut3138]

This piece is the reason I learned piano in the first place, it’s a masterpiece

[@wockyduck]

Ive been waiting for her to do this! This is my very first full piece I learned to play on piano. I am beyond happy!

[@Gandruin-Romer]

wtf you are so talented!! My first full piece was an small Tango about penguins xD

[@wockyduck]

@@Gandruin-Romer Thank you 🫶🏽

[@Juicyunior]

For me having problems with sight reading it really is motivating to see that it is absolutely ok to practice a piece. Until today I thought that skilled sightreading means that you can play a piece immediately 😁 but now I really feel good and motivated because I seem to be on the right way

[@shery9131]

this 1min 10min 1hour video was awesome especially when you make a mistake that's motivating seeing that everybody makes mistakes at every level and practice to get better

[@dustin.2498]

This girl always smiles. I LOVE THIS ENERGY!!!!!

[@haydengr6676]

you are such an inspiration i love watching your videos so much

[@AMARINS]

This video is so cute! I have to admit that your 1 min, 10 min, 1 hour challenge videos motivated me to make my own... and it's SO HARD!!! Good luck with your channel, seems like you're doing great! :D

[@Fav422]

As somebody whose favorite instrument to listen to is the piano although I cannot play it I love watching your 1m/10m/1h challenges. They're such a refreshing way to get to know the instrument and the pieces. 😊 My vote for a future challenge is: Maurice Ravel - Miroirs, No. 3 'Une Barque Sur L'océan'

[@frankthecat1671]

After a 4 year hiatus that is the piece that got me back into playing. Glad youre taking it on too :)

[@eduardotobia2576]

I've been a hole year to learn that song and now you come and play it better in a single hour. You are absolutely talented

[@mrpepero]

PLEASE RECORD AND MAKE A RENDITION BECAUSE IT SOUNDS SO MAJESTIC UR SO GOOD

[@harry_sii]

I was just watching Kyle's video on this for the thousandth time and thought to myself if you could try this! Then scrolled down and was pleasantly surprised.

[@Bitimi]

Kyle Landry version is a win. Such a great song in general!

[@eliezeraquinosilva9887]

wonderfull this video congratulacions

[@Clarionpiano]

Unsure if others have already made this comment, but RE: the weirdness that might be perceived in Howl's Moving Castle, some of that might be explained by the fact that Miyazaki didn't write the story; he adapted it from Diana Wynne Jones' book of the same name and while a lot of the central plot, themes, relationships, and characters remain the same, much of the backstory (specifically Howl's) has been modified and/or excised completely. That's not necessarily a bad thing--the movie allows for the viewer to plug in details and foster their own hypothesis on what may or may not be the backstory. But missing that kind of context can lead to quite a bit of questions and gaps in the worldbuilding, if not the overall logic that sustains the story. The movie remains my personal favourite, but I'd highly recommend picking up the book (and its sequel!) if you have the chance. ^_^

[@mimi-chan5636]

I dont know if it’s just me but I found your way of playing it rlly different from how I usually hear it from others its kinda cool lol Also love the totoros

[@Phymacss]

Same, it’s different but beautiful

[@terranbricklin]

Man I've been working on Merry Go Round on life for two months and you played it better than me in only an hour's worth of practice 😭😭😭 You are extremely skilled, jesus

[@Ermude10]

Love these challenges! It's a great system to learn anything really.

[@AyushKumar-gv1gb]

OMG i love this piece thanks for playing it!!

[@sihirdora3330]

Howl's moving castle is one of my booster why am playing piano, this piece is absolute masterpiece

[@ezmoka9334]

My god, your perfomance is just so beautful, I wish I could play like you. I think that your work is amazing and I'm glad I have discovered such a good artist :)

[@jamienguerrero]

ugggg when she rolls the Fm7 on the 47th bar right at the end. well done!!!

[@MakalaureKanafinwe]

Howl’s Moving Castle is one of my favourite Ghibli films, along with Castle in the Sky and Princess Mononoke.

[@cathrine4266]

Finally the wait is over! One of my fave ghibli music!

[@LawrenceSolon]

That was really interesting to see, and impressive how well you managed to play the first two and a half pages with just an hour of practise. I feel inspired to try the challenge myself!

[@goognamgoognw6637]

Hey i've never seen any Ghimli movies but i guess what it's like. This is very useful to observe how to learn music new score instead of listen to someone telling you what to do which is less effective. Especially i am always stunned by how huge your progress is from first reading to final performance like a different person, but that's inspire me to listen to you carefully.

[@onemanfran]

Howl's moving castle is my favourite. So romantic and whimsical. It lifts me up when I see it.

[@earnestlanguage4242]

so fascinating! especially interested in the harmonies part. i can see how that could help you hit the right bass notes, if you already recognize the patterns!

[@pablosoto5407]

Howls moving castle is the sum of ghibli's allegories about child vs mature and how they complement each other, its kind operatic, so if you introduce yourself about that scope of ghibli's philosophy and how miyazaki present that themes in his characters (with variations of the same, like gray hair shopie, child like drew ponyo and all her shape development back and forth eg.) ...that will act as an opera program given to you at the entry of ghibli's theater and opens your eyes to enjoy all what miyazaki wants to tell us....anyway I think that also the ages contribute with the enlightenment and understanding of miyazaki's allegories, by your life experiences related to simple be older and supposedly wiser ...like miyazaki.

[@wokengamer4891]

It's crazy how I searched this on your channel a couple of days ago and now you made it. Maybe i predicted the future. Great video

[@EnneagramAndEncaustic]

Although I love all the Miyazaki films, Howl might be my favorite. It's like a dream. And how we look vs how we feel is a profound theme. And Sophie's capacity to love inspires...

[@Barbara_TQT]

Kyle Landry version, yay! And… wait the minute… What a gorgeous t-shirt! Totoro-Batman 😁

[@rogiervk1]

Kyle landry's old video's motivated me to start playing the piano, he brings so much nostalgia to his music! Btw i love your challenges😂! Ps. I play sometimes on a Boston grand piano and must say they are so nice and easy to play.

[@IamJohn0808]

Such a beautiful piece though! Just loved the melody. Indeed beautiful one!

[@Achuchuli]

I have been waiting for a year for this 😭

[@tamikaze3751]

Great playing Annique! You are always an inspiration! Wunderbar gespielt!

[@DrQuizzler]

So this piece has a sort of pop (jazz) waltz theme, and that's outside your comfort zone. You handled it perfectly, harmonically analyzing the parts which threw you, and it worked wonders!! Shout-out to music theory!! A lot of symphony orchestras do pop pieces as encores, especially after hours of heavy stuff. Maybe you could incorporate some pop elements like this piece, or at least a showy "rhapsody" based on it, into your programs.

[@pjbpiano]

I don’t think it’s outside her comfort zone.

[@MlleAudree]

So awsome! It would be great to see more of these challenges with ghibli or more mainstream music too :)

[@vincentoh955]

My favorite version of my favorite song, this is gonna be a good one!

[@ratnamanimasanti]

Oh my God! Both of you are my favorite pianist🥰❤ very love it!

[@littlefurnace]

Brilliant job! Really glad you decided to go for it, i love this piece of music. Definitely agree with you that Howl's Moving Castle was a weird movie. I think it's because it's based on a book (Howl's Moving Castle by Dianna Wynne Jones) that has a very British feeling to it. So you're a German person, watching a Japanese interpretation of a British book. Probably a lot of stuff that gets lost in translation! XD By the way, if you see this; will you possibly do a Christmas live-stream like last year?

[@coleptera180]

Really loved it! Always appreciate the hard and time consuming work you put into every video!

Firstly, love the piano, the sound you make on it, and all the Ghibli movies and music I so really enjoyed hearing you play a little of it. Didn’t realise there was such a nice arrangement and now tempted to find a copy for myself ☺️ Thought you might also like to know that Ghibli is pronounced ‘jiburi’, with a soft j sound :)

[@WhoisBoogieSuave]

Great job Annique!

[@alpiano353]

Great piece, I love Owl's Moving Castle. I have made my own piano cover, not even close to yours, but still enjoyable. Thanks for this great video and the challenge!

[@oxoelfoxo]

i strongly suggest reading the book by Diana Wynne Jones. well, even the Howl's Moving Castle book is quite complicated. it's like mystery after mystery and the movie changed it quite a bit, too so it acquired an anti-war bent.
