Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ~ Colgera Battle ~ Piano Solo

[@MarcPlaysPiano]

I saw the unmade bed and digital keyboard and thought, "oh this will be terrible." Then I started listening and my head nearly exploded with how amazing this video is.

[@TheSlowPianist]

Thanks! I had a peek at your channel too and you have great tone when you play (and a microphone that catches it).

[@MarcPlaysPiano]

@@TheSlowPianist Thanks, you are very kind. Years ago a teacher of mine used the Brahms Eb minor intermezzo to show me how weak my tone was...after some weeks of merciless badgering about weak tone, I got better, haha. I look forward to the day when you have a nice piano to record on and some decent mics!

[@Skibidicookies-s7i]

The piano covers with the messy rooms, and low quality cameras are always the BEST

[@Gonzila1998]

nah thats just an INTP's default bed

[@andrewtevis9902]

No no that's just the sign of an artist at work

[@didiyotu]

My man’s bed is undone since Ludwig the holy blade 3 years ago but his piano is crazy. Mom won’t convince me now to do mine

[@cchonkerson]

I saw the unmade bed and the weird recording angle and I already knew this one was going to be a banger.

[@DaDrakster]

So throughout my searches on KZbin to find this song via piano, I’ve watched a lot of the bigger KZbinrs, but they always have art, or digital piano keys in their videos. I prefer ones like these. Just a plain video, no extra with someone playing piano with all their emotion. Sir you have my #1 video I’ve found for this song and I hope you keep this style of video going forward.

[@GPXBrent]

Finally someone plays the entire theme instead of just phase 3. Love it!

[@xmavrekx8663]

I’m waiting for the comments of “Your posture is bad… your elbows are too low” while this dude hammers out this banger, no problem. Well done sir

[@_ss_]

How does this only have 1.7k views. This is legit best piano cover I've seen of any song all year

[@even250]

All of his videos need way more love. I have his Slay the Spire rendition on repeat. Just some incredible talent on display here.

[@Chrisletizi]

This video harpens back to the good old days of youtube. The days when i was a 12 year old kid watching zelda piano videos. It's the unmade bed, the camera quality, and the insane talent. Bravo !

[@y33tfactor]

dude... ...this is better than even Sheet Music Boss's rendition...

[@TheSlowPianist]

Oh I hadn't seen that one. He's done a good arrangement there - it's the one I'd play if I hadn't done my own!

[@DaDrakster]

Yup. Still an absolute banger.

[@TalhaMakakk]

Dude's just casually a good pianist.

[@dreadjoker10]

superbly clean, felt like the dynamic aspects were really brought out too. actually can't believe how clean some of those trills going down the keyboard were. it's really fantastic c:

[@TheSlowPianist]

Thank you! I do use some editing on my electric keyboard videos because the touch is difficult to translate well to the piano software I use. However I still aim for a performance-quality live take as my starting point, and I'm pretty sure the trills went well in the original too, so I'll take it!

[@KG-eo1mg]

@@TheSlowPianist sounds like acoustic grand piano actuallly

[@soapy247]

Yes! It’s not just phase 3! Most people only play phase 3 of Colgera but the entire track is so good but I don’t see it covered often. Definitely one of the best covers I’ve heard

[@sydneykjerstad]

Underrated. One of the best arrangements I've heard of Zelda music on the piano.

[@olisho]

this is the most impressive thing ive ever seen anyone do, like just in general wow

[@megaturtle23]

3:07 is too good dude. Incredible.

[@high.level.noob.]

Bro is just chilling perfecting piano to a godly level.

[@MoisesNieto]

Amazing arr. and performance!! 👏👏👏

[@ProbablyAdson]

you are without a doubt the most underrated piano channel on youtube. the passion and creativity oozing from your covers are unlike anything ive found on this website. keep it up :)

[@bricecotte5225]

i am speechless what did I just watch holyyyyyy

[@DaDrakster]

Hey, just wanted to tell you this vid was my #2 song on my KZbin music rewind. Out of 2000 ish minutes. Again. It’s a great piece of music you did perfectly.

[@TheSlowPianist]

That's an honour! Thank you for coming back.

[@emiliozpunkt1232]

Bruv just annihilated every big piano youtuber there is... tf is going on😭 Saw the bed and the weird angle and i knew shit is about to go down but bro exploded my expectations

[@Zuldita]

Man, wt.....? YOU ARE JUST AN AMAZING PIANIST. Why do you have so few likes? I'm lucky to hear this.

[@ShadowWizard224]

Never seen someone so focused 👌 Colgera Battle is also a top 10 Zelda song of all time 🔥

[@emmamiller.]

This is really underrated!!! Chills.

[@ginxgvt]

I come back to this video at least once a week and it still gives me goosebumps, you’re crazy talented and this is the best version ive heard this theme on the piano. I hope you know you’re inspiring a 15 yr old kid to keep pursuing music. If you ever make more zelda content im here for it !!

[@eliasc999]

some of the most expressive playing i've seen, my goosebumps got goosebumps, excited for your future uploads 😁❤

[@Kasai-Shibata]

HOW, I have shivers

[@saikarahigurashi5331]

Sir just made the best arrangement in his bedroom. I have goosebumps like every 10-20 second. I rarely made any comments on KZbin, but this one, I definitely has to put my hand on typing to say how I'm so admire you now because I'm an introverted classical pianist. My wish is also to contribute something to the fandom that I'm into in the future.

[@kmadsmusic]

This is EXCELLENT. I love how you manage to stay faithful to the original piece while still making your arrangement so unique and fitting for the piano. The intensity is off the charts, and it sounds so full and suspenseful throughout. Then so heroic in part 3, I got chills. Great job, this is the best rendition of this piece I've heard!

[@ashyoung6134]

You're a formidable pianist, really incredible.

[@peco8120]

No joke my favorite piano video of all time. I love listening and watching people play especially Zelda music. The way you play so passionately and beautifully inspired me to play the piano again. It's truly amazing how you play and keep it up!

[@domr508]

This was so epic. Would love to experience this fight for the first time again, unfortunately it's impossible but listening to this is honestly the closest I've been

[@roxymidna1567]

This deserves sooooo many more likes and views, you played this absolutely perfectly

[@velleity5369]

this is ludicrously good

[@wiwwin]

This is mind blowing

[@ElmaXC]

TheSlowPianist? More like TheBESTPianist! You’re incredibly talented!

[@BananaMan3113]

I love this to death. I love how you did the entire song and not just phase three, it was becoming a phase with a lot of piano covers I saw for this song. Your in inspiration man. take care and keep doing what you love!

[@kedrednael]

I cannot remember the last time I gasped out loud because of a piano performance. But I did with this one.

[@jasonzervos]

Colgera's theme is my favorite piceof music from TOTK and this piano version is one of the best versions I've watched/listened! I just stood still the hole time in front of the screen. Your arrangement is FIRE, using everything a piano can give! It's also so cool that you've played Wind Waker before and this boss theme references rooster island's theme

[@lizardlink5130]

this is excellent. the skill and dedication required to perform this whole piece so well for the full 5 minutes is truly incredible

[@flyingfoetus2933]

This is the best arrangement I've heard on KZbin, capturing all the phases, I relived the emotions of the Colgera boss battle. Thank you, I love it ❤

[@bee4590]

1. absolutely unreal playing, instantly subbed 2. handsome :)

[@mr.mephitis2492]

Dang, that's good.

[@AudreyGalaxy]

full body goosebumps at the start of phase 3. fantastic work

[@OEF_Vet_0331]

This is DAMN PERFECT!!

[@Rudo1984]

Wonderful cover.

[@piano.embrujao]

Man I really hope I can play like you one day, that was breathtaking

[@Foxyrh]

We hope to see you back!

[@J.P.Nery.N.]

This is insane!

[@ryannn3028]

3:17 is the part we all felt it in our souls 💯

[@samuelbeto7900]

muito foda, queria ter dedicação pra um dia conseguir tocar assim 🎉🎉

[@tigorsf]

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@russkayas_]

WOW. This is stunning

[@yazanshareef7756]

Man, I used to watch your videos ever since I was just a kid! Let me tell you how awesome it is to see you are still active and dropping bangers like this. Incredible job!

[@biblical_figure]

Nothing short of incredible

[@antjamnow1286]

Hey, it's Anthony from discord. This was an awesome piano arrangement. It's intricate and well-spoken from your playing. I haven't heard TOTK music yet, nor have I played it yet.

[@Josephferrari7]

You're incredible sir 🫡

[@percrazie]

This made my day sir. I am extremly impressed. Your Performance was increadible and very enjoyable. Thanks a lot!

[@gamsougher3574]

oh my god. dude. this is incredible

[@Red_Aura.]

This is the absolute best cover and edition of Colgera's soundtrack ever. As a fellow Pianist, amazing skills and coordination. And as a fellow Arranger/Composer, excellent job.

[@Cookiesisyummy991]

This is so good:3

[@Duhemsounds]

You have a good piano playing, great cover

[@jaimegarzi2029]

I've seen a lot of videos about this song that I love, and you are the best by far. I know this song takes a lot of time to learn and the effort that you surely put on it deserves a lot. Thank you so much for giving us this amazing performance ❤

[@MorrowindNCP]

Pardon my french but that was fucking incredible

[@Catlady29]

Actually the best I've seen/heard. Crazy good.

[@ghostboy4115]

Ik this isn’t the most important, but man the efficiency at which you flip pages is wild to me, back when I regularly played music it would take my fingers a whole two seconds to fumble to the next page or even worse turn to the wrong one. I never understood how everyone else could just like- do it right. Lol anyways Beautiful playing, it sounds awesome!

[@TheSlowPianist]

@@ghostboy4115 I fold up the corner of the page so it's easy to grab. Also picking the moment and rehearsing it is important.

[@airjohnpro]

Beautiful

[@beautyandageek4059]

This was absolutely phenomenal! 🔥

[@ハゲたか-g6g]

上手過ぎる！！ カッコいい！！ ヤバすぎぃ！

[@jordanbpiano]

Incredible arrangement and performance! I love that you kept the melody line in the section with the chromatic scales. I haven't seen that in other arrangements. Subscribed and will definitely buy the sheet music if I am motivated enough to commit to learning the whole thing. Edit: The hand shake after the gliss at 3:25 is so relatable :')

[@TheSlowPianist]

Much appreciated! Please bear in mind that I mainly arrange for myself and as such do use tenths in my arrangements - people with smaller hands may have to refigure or roll some chords or find solutions etc. Just a heads-up!

[@jordanbpiano]

Thanks for the heads up! I can definitely modify as needed.

[@vboost]

Intense work!

[@allytheninjaVODs]

Miss your uploads, dude. Hope you're doing well! ❤

[@TheSlowPianist]

Yes, thank you. It's because I'm working on a large project, so it'll hopefully be worth the wait.

i'm slightly less late on this one but you still fucking killed it

and those TRILLS OH MY LORD

[@TheMariaProject]

Nice!

[@szymerikg4039]

Epic

[@NickKarm]

Tears of the Kingdom has a fantastic soundtrack and you really do it justice here. This track reminds me somewhat of Shadow of the Colossus.

[@yOoYOoyOyO-l1v]

cooooool

[@silentpoem]

IT S PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!

[@laszayar]

I started learning guitar a couple months ago, and my ultimate goal is to be able to play LucasGitanoFamily's version of Gerudo Valley. Your cover was so awesome I will actually start to learn the piano, with the goal of getting to learn this song in a couple years when I get good. That was amazing!

[@MeganAltenritter]

Not even lying I thought it was Pointcrow playing this and I did not have high hopes but he isn't Pointcrow and can play that very well

[@Freddoou]

your playing is incredible. Can I ask you what model of digital piano do you use?

[@TheSlowPianist]

@@Freddoou It's a Yamaha P-series being put through a computer which has a better piano patch on it.

[@Freddoou]

@@TheSlowPianist thank you very much

[@allytheninja]

Hello, friend! I wasn't sure where else to reach you, however I was hoping to get permission to use some of your videos on my break screens during some of my streams! I would of course credit your channel, I just wanted to make sure you were okay with me using your videos! I'm a much smaller channel averaging around 20-40 viewers per stream, but would love to showcase your performances during my streams wherever possible, since most of my viewers are fans of the games you transpose music from! I hope you are well, and I miss your uploads! Please be well! 💛

[@TheSlowPianist]

You'd be very welcome, and I'm happy that you'd choose my videos. I am well - I spent most of the past year working on a large project, so I hope it's worth the wait (not directly connected to this channel but connected to game music).

[@allytheninja]

@@TheSlowPianist Thank you for the permission! And I'm happy to hear you are well. I look forward to anything you decide to share with us here on your channel, but am also thrilled you are working on projects in general! Keep being amazing!
