Loved the perspective on this shot, its like seeing the piano's soul

That's such a beautiful way of putting it

@@moccacine i've been pushing my gf to watch the movie for a couple of years, but she won't for some reason. We watched it last night with me, and she was bawling by the end. It's just perfection

[@mwmedia1051]

Damn, the way that he does the pedal is tooooo good. Honestly after playing the piano for 15 years, the pedal is definitely one of the hardest things to master

The sustain pedal?

@@roryduffy5013 there can be more than the sustain pedal on a piano though, and if they're a beginner it might've not been obvious what they meant, so you're kinda mean ngl

[@ncrisz351]

One thing I love about this arrangement Is how you're not excessive with the arpeggios, the improvisation and all that stuff! It's perfect.

[@abyssusnox]

Yeah agreed, as too much arpeggios can make it feel a little overwhelming. The song is supposed to be a light bittersweet song with hints of sorrow. Jacob Koller _never_ disappoints

[@JacobKollerMusic]

Again I apologize to everyone for the delay with the sheet music. I am awaiting on approval from the publisher which normally doesn't take this long. Thanks for your patience.

[@jueviolegrace7265]

The Mad Arranger / Jacob Koller You're awesome dude.

[@liamlyons1766]

Arrange the 3/4 "Thaxted" portion of Holst's Jupiter!

[@DavidTorresPiano]

Great Jacob, greetings !!!

[@jarehelt]

Jacob Koller / The Mad Arranger Still no sheet music?

[@minimonkey252]

Hey, do you include transcriptions of your improvisations in your sheet music? This was elegant

[@pianoroom958]

This music and a glass of wine...perfect night!

[@xaavo.]

Perfect arrengement, perfect solos, perfect tone

[@Petestratoguitar]

Wow.. in this 3-4 day I found you.. listened your videos and i think that you are my favourite jazz piano player right now

[@harleymad7974]

Pietro Di Leo If u like Jazzy Piano Music Check out "Jonny May" hes one of the best on youtube

[@Petestratoguitar]

Harley Ma D thanks ;)

[@harleymad7974]

Pietro Di Leo Welcome :)

[@Aisluin]

Obviously a late time to be asking, but are there any other jazz pianists on youtube you guys reccomend?

[@biancabai1429]

The improvised part is excellent !

[@samysmusicbox7084]

2:02 I'll play like this one day I swear!

[@Jojo27.2]

It's been 10 months, so have you played it yet?

[@jeyjeyp2k]

Have you already? xD

[@romanatashyan76]

Well, have been about a year. Any news?

[@LFK7O7]

I believe in u

[@Sham-pz5sr]

You can do it

[@jaben5489]

The way your fingers glide so effortlessly across the keys is simply mesmerizing. The positioning, the accuracy, the emotions, it’s beautiful. And being able to see the inners of the piano adds a nice touch. Best rendition I’ve heard of this piece. I wish I would’ve found it sooner. Thank you for sharing. You’ve earned a new sub

[@zamantha744]

people really out here being this talented

[@SignTheta]

2:06 is where it hits me! *Goosebumps* Awesome job on the improvs!

[@pixalmasterstudios2485]

Wow. Just WOW. This is very close to becoming my favorite movie of all time, and this gave me goosebumps. You are a true master of the piano

[@MelwinGeez]

YES, my dream/ request became true! _And it sounds absolutely beautiful..._

[@dunewolf7455]

It’s been years I listen to this play. Pops up randomly in my mind once every month or so. And I don’t listen so much piano solos but this is sur a piece of art. Please never take it down from the internet !!!

[@schukinator]

alright, piano man, tickle those ivories

[@jjpmn]

The touch you give the piano is unique. Because even the same piece shows that you put your thing. Its beautiful.

[@iAlexMat]

can’t stop to listen this again and again. This dynamic, emotion, voice of the soul...amazing...no words

[@CarlosPerez-ru6tb]

This is the most beautiful thing i’ve ever heard in my entire life

[@TheUnorthodoxGears]

Oh god, that altered bit :o amazing

[@hightreason]

[@cow2718]

it’s so glued in his mind that it doesn’t even look like he is playing because of the endless about of practice he’s put into just this one piece and that is why he has my respect because he practiced enough to have this played so effortlessly

[@YoussefHassan]

Your improvisation took it to another level - mad skills 👍

[@JacobKollerMusic]

Youssef Hassan thank you so much!

[@kondoor_]

I’m checking this video every year, and every time I get goosebumps! Hope that one day I’ll be able to play this masterpiece

[@neilsynth]

One of the best jazz improvs. Ive ever heard in my life.

[@jacintagonzalez7389]

Your hands move so effortlessly over the keys, it's honestly amazing!

[@bethanw7729]

It took forever but this is just my favourite song to play and I’m so glad I found your beautiful arrangement

[@gambardella1209]

The beauty of this literally made me smile!

[@gabriellaross4890]

Honestly that was so beautiful! I'm speechless!

[@Jonathan-si3bc]

And this is how you turn an already wonderful song, into something remarkably satisfying, just wow... it striked me at 2.06, goosebumps all over!!

[@lydiboo464]

So beautiful! By far my favorite arrangement of this song. I have been watching this over and over. Wonderful!

[@MayseeRenae]

I don't understand how anyone can not like this, this is pure art and I'm absolutely in love with it

[@sdygks303]

At the first moment I put a play this on youtube, I knew this was what I wanted. Best City of Stars in a piano. Keep going on other music, you Mr. magic!

[@kamsan1722]

Burning question: Do you always practice all the different major minor classical scales and jazz scales crazily to nail those running passages flawlessly?

[@JacobKollerMusic]

Honestly I haven't practiced scales for many years. As a kid my teacher made me practice scales a lot which was very beneficial but now I only practice the things I write or arrange for myself to play.

[@jeanne458]

Just GREAT. I love Jazz, and I love La La Land, so this seems just perfect to me. Thanks

[@jillianmartin7664]

I fell in love with the way your fingers danced across every note without hesitation.

[@kenny142726]

I'm star struck! 😵 Do you think you could also arrange Another Day of Sun? Or Someone in the Crowd? Those songs are my favorite two😍

[@thisisnotaaliyah]

YES! I agree

Another Day of Sun is coming very soon.....

I'm glad you made this one simpler. It's sounds great

[@jjane2960]

so incredibly beautiful, especially the second half of the song! you made the piano sing, and I can’t imagine how magical it would be to hear this live

[@Sim_Pole]

City of stars Are you shining just for me? City of stars There's so much that I can't see Who knows? I felt it from the first embrace I shared with you That now our dreams They've finally come true City of stars Just one thing everybody wants There in the bars And through the smokescreen of the crowded restaurants It's love Yes, all we're looking for is love from someone else A rush A glance A touch A dance A look in somebody's eyes To light up the skies To open the world and send it reeling A voice that says, I'll be here And you'll be alright I don't care if I know Just where I will go 'Cause all that I need is this crazy feeling A rat-tat-tat on my heart Think I want it to stay City of stars Are you shining just for me? City of stars You never shined so brightly

Wow another amazing piece of art... It's so delicate and delightful!!

[@AshrafRezkmusic]

Jazz Skeptics like me should skip to 2:16 finding jazz standard phrasing and generic beautiful bebop approaches. That's if we ignore the walking bass lines of parallel thirds 8va that are conventionally used in Jazz

[@magda1enaclark]

This is the most beautiful version ive ever heard

[@aylan5528]

Too beautiful. Can't stop listening to it. And certainly can't wait for the sheet music to be uploaded!

Jazz is my fav, I'm a musician in training (still in highschool) at the moment but when I saw La La Land and heard Ryan goseling's characters dream I was like hella to the F yea thats my dream too. I hope to one day be a jazz pianist and this piece that youve arranged is just simply the best honestly its something that I'd play at any smooth groovin bar haha keep up the wonderful work mate best wishes

[@TheSunshine865]

I got to 2:00 and was going to hit like button but turns out i already had💔 I didnt remember i had watched this video before and already liked it. Apparently your playing never fails to impress me

[@margo5333]

This movie is so elegant and beautiful already but the sound track is just the cherry on top for me.

[@nickk8416]

Really good Jacob! Such tasteful playing. You honor the composer with your rendition. I think he'd love it too.

I didn't appreciate the amount of stretching required for the left hand in 1:25 until I reached that part of playing it myself... sheesshhh!!

[@KizzFaithHurdon]

I know right! I had to resort to changing it, I physically can’t do it with any degree of accuracy...

[@dmd2803]

Jacob Koller / The Mad Arranger you're welcome!! Btw you are incredibly talented! ヾ(｡>﹏

[@XricheeX]

I just started learning to play the piano, i cant imagine how amazing it must feel to be able to play songs like this

[@kristianl7117]

The longer you play the piano the more rewarding, but also the more daunting it gets. I remember seeing pieces similar to this in difficulty when i started playing and thinking "if only i could ever play music like that". And while i'm not as good a pianist as Jacob, i can play pieces like this now. The wonderful but also annoying thing about piano though is that there is ALWAYS something unachievably difficult waiting for you. When you reach what you thought of as the top you realise there is so, so, so much more to learn. That being said i hope you derive as much joy and pleasure from finding out just how much there is to learn as i did:) Good luck on your practicing!

[@XricheeX]

Kristian l thankyou so much :)

[@lashakhmaladze2703]

I love it! Will try to play myself,can't afford the sheet of this beautiful music but maybe I can learn by watching the video and pausing at moments :)
