Psycho Theme on Piano with Knives

[@SidneyMosley]

Legend has it... That piano still has nightmares till this day that this man will come back and kill its keys some more. Edit: Two years and a heart later... He returned.

[@MartinSpitznagel]

I cannot believe this only has 12k hits. This is brilliant on every count: creativity, performance, production value. Tremendous.

@Cairo Landyn I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

[@phillipephraim1828]

@Cairo Landyn It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much, you saved my ass !

[@cairolandyn1611]

@Phillip Ephraim happy to help :)

[@ImMuzikmaven]

Gobsmacked! Extraordinary brilliance! Conception is everything and originality rare indeed--but this? Wow. I'm 72 years old and almost nothing moves me these days. Horsley has stopped me dead in my tracks and sent chill bumps of admiration to awaken me from my jaded slumber. Naturally, I subscribed instantly. Bravo!

[@greg1mcintosh844]

Love your review!

[@andrebourgeoiset2345]

Ce petit chef-d'oeuvre d'interprétation de la musique de Psycho, grinçant, angoissant à souhait, mais musical, mérite d'être salué pour son imagination et sa réalisation exemplaires.

[@JoachimHorsley]

+andré Bourgeoiset Je vous remercie, qui était très gentil de vous dire!

[@HuntmanC68]

damn you played the fuck out of that piano

[@Barry7777777]

The chromatic run that starts at 1:23 is my favorite part of the whole piece - thanks for moving your left hand back so I could see it as well as hear it. I'll be watching this video many, many times - thanks so much for sharing this fantastic version with us!

[@oktyanguyen151]

This vid is extremely underrated

[@kylelandry]

Can I just put this on repeat now?

[@MagentaPotion]

I watch this on repeat a lot! My favorite horror film score!

[@TimeandMonotony]

Oh my GOD this is incredible!

[@elliehales7052]

I keep coming back to this for idk how many years 😍

[@cedrikstudy8234]

1:23 gives the flight of the bumblebee vibes but jazz style

This is marvelously creative. Very well done, Jo!

[@JoachimHorsley]

Thanks!

[@RIOTedm]

This was awesome!

[@godalseif]

wow, this arrangement was incredible. and I absolutely love the jazz flare you added. bravo.

[@JoachimHorsley]

+godAlseif Thank you! I appreciate the comment.

This is the CONTENT and creativity that KZbin should promote.

[@ariue]

so cool

[@Jibegagosiptta]

Cannot believe the combination of knives and piano can make this cool music. I think it deserves at least 1milion views. Thanks for sharing

[@sage4nowty129]

Amazing rendition!! Bravissmo!! Encore!!

[@zacklim157]

That poor piano...

[@krystalharwood1807]

Love how he’s moving his head at 0:11 to the tune of the music.

[@helloimmisterj]

This made me goosebumps. Excellent work!

[@woolsoul219]

How does this not have more views? This is brilliant! Great job!!!

[@SebastianWolff]

So incredible!

[@markbrandus]

How fun! I will let the Norman Bates Memorial Soundtrack Show know about this - over a KFJC broadcasting in Foothill College, California (Robert Emmet DJ)

[@DooWopification]

Fantastic!

[@prateeksunny4145]

Wow such a beautiful music 🎶 I will learn this notes 💗

[@billoo13]

Truly an amazing and fantastic cover.

[@14885284]

The right music for Halloween, thanks.

[@isabel4077]

this video deserves way more recognition than it has

[@simonlacey487]

That was brilliant! Love the sounds you get from the knives on the strings... So inventive and yet faithful to Herrmann at the same time... Bravo!

[@firstsecond12648]

SOOOOO AMAZINGGGG!!

[@stegoface]

This is an absolutely incredible dedication to the film. Witty. Brilliantly done. Everyone wants to cringe over the knife on piano sound but what a friggin show.

[@chefelf]

Fantastic, as always, Mr. Horsley.

[@Soundole]

Loved the colour editing on this video, what a nice touch to a compelling arrangement!

[@andreemonjardin551]

I LOOOOVE THIIS SO SO MUUCH

[@the_narthex]

I wouldn't have thought this would sound good... until hearing it. Now I'm ashamed of ever doubting!

[@Nikishananimates]

Love it 💕💕

[@ravasolix]

By far the best version of that song

[@MomentoVivere]

Absolutely brilliant.

[@blastromlifyedah]

This cover makes it easier to picture “Psycho” as a silent film about Jack the Ripper.

[@calinakumula319]

Don't know where to begin.. AWESOME!!!

[@harrihiltunen1244]

all time best piano player....

Amazing! It reminded me Shostakovich somehow.

[@JoachimHorsley]

Thank you! I love Shostakovich, and he was definitely an influence on Herrmann.

[@petedeadintexas]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

[@eastonroy4891]

The cinematography on this video is outstanding i could watch the video on mute and still be impressed, your version is unlike any other I love when you use the knives gently on the strings!!!! Great job!!!

[@JoachimHorsley]

+Easton roy Thanks! It was shot by my good friend Michael Matzdorff. We are hoping to do more videos together soon. He also designed the look and color. Talented guy!

[@harrihiltunen1244]

amazing fine played theme..

[@medicina3panama279]

Genius my friend. Every aspect of this video is just so well done. I can see you have a passion for this.

[@Mastropierofafa]

Maestro.. !!!

[@tjlaviolette]

Beautiful! Absolutely brilliant! Thanks for sharing!

[@mohzaher2000]

Wow, loved how you dared to run knives on the expensive strings

[@annalisacozzolino2041]

Oh my God, that's just AMAZING!!!

[@Barry7777777]

WOW - absolutely jaw-dropping! I especially like the arpeggiation during the key change as it fills it in very nicely and doesn't lose momentum at that point in the absence of a string section. In my opinion, this is the best version of the song in history (except the film version of course, but this piano effort easily tops every other orchestral version I've heard). Okay, time for another listen!

[@SergioGonzalez-xg5oo]

uploaded over a year ago and I still come back to listen! you are a musical genius. I have never heard anyone else play that song as well as you did. almost movie accurate! you were able to duplicate the screeching horrific sounds yet play soothingly over it to make this tune fearful and suspenseful, just like Alfred Hitchcock intended the music to sound in his films. Mr. Hitchcock would've been proud.

[@JoachimHorsley]

+Sergio Gonzalez Thanks Sergio! I appreciate it!

[@adrianacannizzaro]

Wow the video work is incredible !! Outstanding performance

[@chiarafpe]

THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER THANK UU❤️

[@johnnynick6179]

Wow, captures the chilling effect perfectly!

[@MuzikJunky]

1:17-the Busta Rhymes version (“Gimme Some More”)? Peace.

[@JoachimHorsley]

Thank you! In 7 years, no one has mentioned this nod! I lost faith that anyone would notice. :)

[@MuzikJunky]

@@JoachimHorsley, I totally flipped and did a double take when I first heard that joint back in 1997. Peace.

[@BayronMalfoy]

Amazing cover , I love it !!!!!
