Musical Tribute to Claire Wineland

[@sakuram4908]

thank you. Claire meant so much to me and i think of her everyday and her message truly stays with me. This was a beautiful piece and represents her so well. Im sure she would have loved this. Claire really was the brightest spark there ever was and this captures her beauty and hardships and complexities. so thank you once again

A beautiful piece, and excellent playing! Claire was a philosopher in the making, and a natural one. As for you, I have found her thoughts striking. The question about how we should live our lives, and why we should do one thing instead of another, and wondering about life and death, has been a major question since Socrates, Plato, Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius and beyond. This type of enquiry has even a name in philosophy, i.e. ethics. The first things that Claire can teach us, I think, is that life is really very short, that nothing is guaranteed, that we all end up in the same place, regardless of the "country" we "came" from, and all that nonsense....thank you for your performance 👏

I stumbled upon this video.. I’m psychic.. and I had a vision of her.. I kept hearing “Claire” until I addressed her in my vision.... when I focused on her i knew she was pasted away... I said to her “are you okay? Are you alive?”.... she laughed in joy and didn’t say anything back but I understood.. I felt her energy cling with me and I’ve felt it ever since (this has never happened to me before). What she told me telepathically and energetically (no words just energy) was that she was happy, in bliss, and where she wants to be. She is in everything and everyone she’s Devine energy... she showed me shes a Devine soul, and Devine souls like this, reincarnate back into this world.. her soul is what I like to call an infinity soul. A soul energy that has lived a very long long looonng time. Like hundreds maybe even a thousands of years old. I needed to share this with everyone... because she wants me to. Bless you all from Claire 🧡💛

Thank you so much for sharing that, it validates what I sense about her as well.

Absolutely wonderful. Just discovered Claire 11 days ago and she has had an inconceivable impact on my life. Only the greatest of people have the ability to influence in such a manner after their passing. Great musical piece. Rest easy Claire.

I wish I was one of those people who could write sophisticated and eloquent reviews. I've read reviews about books before that were better than the book they were so well written. I wish I had the adjectives so that I could weave them together in the proper way. I know very little about music and music composition. I wouldn't know the difference between an in tune or out of tune a piano. What I do know is when I closed my eyes and just listened I felt something. I thought of Claire and her complexities and simplicities. She was light-hearted about very heavy hearted subjects. She was beautiful and serene and always made me think. Your song is all that, it's heavy and yet it's light. It's complex and ethereal at times. It flowed and ebbed in a way that connected me to it. It's simply beautiful and haunting. I'll be back to listen again. Keep writing.

It was about 2 weeks ago when a video showed up on my feed called "what's like being in a coma" featuring a young girl with a breathing tube. I don't really watch these types of videos because they're usually too "over the top" to attract likes and views, but that day was an exception, so i clicked. Never in a million years would i have imagined, that i'd dive into a pool of emotions that i've never experienced before! For the next 10 days or so i'd wake up with a heavy chest, thinking about her story most of the time. I don't know how or why that particular story had me that good, but i'm glad it did. So i guess i was just in the same boat as you were, but 3 years later! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on her story and for writing this beautiful song. I hope i have 1/10th of the courage she had one day...

[@StevenMassicotte]

Thanks for sharing, I think a lot of us felt that way when we discovered Claire. It’s funny how time becomes irrelevant in these situations.

[@AIMORROIDAS1990]

@@StevenMassicotte Hey! I actually didn't expect you to see my comment☺️. Its really nice to see that you can relate to "strangers" from all over the globe. This story deffinately affected me, and that hardly ever happens... Keep up your good work, enjoy life and be aware because who knows... Maybe the next "Claire" (male or female) can be right next to us and we don't even notice... Peace! 💪

[@Goshawaf]

This is so wonderful, listened to it several times in a row!

[@gfdthree1]

Nice tribute.

[@cry2love]

Love it, thank you, sire. Claire was, is and will be a big inspiration for life for me :)

[@lifewithrileybook]

Awesome for you ... and for us .. that you wrote this and are inspired to the degree you are. This is so beautiful!!! I, too, discovered Claire within the last few weeks. She gave me a vision for how/where I can up my game and upping my game is something I focus on and write about all the time! I'm blessed to have found her and now to have found you. Keep doing what you do!!

This is my first comment on KZbin and believe me it takes more than few minutes for me to decide to leave a comment as I am a very introvert person and do not like to post comments, etc... I have been watching your piano tutorials and Q&A sessions as I am just a beginner in piano, I am learning a lot from you. I actually thought you were just a very brilliant performer till this moment. Not an expert of anything really; but I could not resist to leave a good comment after listening to your composition and performance. I loved it! Looking forward to hear your new compositions... Best wishes from Turkey...

[@StevenMassicotte]

Thank you for taking the time to write, your comment is really appreciated!

A really beautiful tribute! Well done. Are the sheets available online at all? I'd love to be able to play this.

Hi Sophie, I have reworked this piece since the last two years, you can find a more recent version on the channel. I just need to copyright it and then I will make it available, thanks for reminding me!
