Eric Weinstein sent me

[@walperstyle]

Went through the portal didn't you?

[@HotelierNYC]

I had the pleasure of working with this cat some 15 years ago. Not only a brilliant musician but a beautiful man.

[@jejekoma]

Will Smith's book led me here. Oh my! The passion and beauty of this genius and his music made me cry. Thank you.

[@jeremiahsimmons2118]

Me toooo 🙏🏽

[@gordongannon40]

Just watched Eric Weinstein interview also.. can't stop listening to him. This is true genius. Total respect and love for Elew..

[@velvetybutler7102]

Underrated and under-viewed

[@Noobs4020]

I don’t think I have ever heard a piano sound or feel like it’s being played as a guitar. Masterful!

[@glitchVer1]

This is what a brilliant idea sounds like.

[@nynoah]

Eric Weistein sent me. Please check out his podcast The Portal .

[@daviddean8312]

The Portal*

[@gabrielhofer3770]

yeah same

[@CharlieRealEstateMA]

Which episode

[@HarlemCulturalArchives]

He played with the Marcus Miller Quartet yesterday in Harlem and blew everyone's minds!

[@SimulationSeries]

This is how to use an entire instrument, WOW!!!!!!

[@ThePilot_USA]

If memory servers, in 2011 Elew was in his first audition on AGT; the day after, Josh Groban producers contacted him and invited him to tour with Groban and Elew dropped out of the show. Amazing pianist.

[@Michael_Dominic]

thank god causae those shows are fucking awful :D

[@trip2439]

This is probably the most amazing thing I have ever heard. And the song is one of my favorites. Life is a symphony. So many things happening at once. We should live in a manner that brings a melody about our lives. That melody blends into that of others to create a larger tune. And that blends into a harmony with all things. That is the aim in life. The reason I appreciate music so much is because it is a glimpse into the very harmony. Music is an example of pure existence. It is the voice of God.

[@danwest9900]

The audience was so reserved, in my opinion. Watching Eric play the piano like that, playing with all of his heart, it just makes you want to jump up, put your hands in the air, dance, and when he finishes people should be yelling, "bravo!!!" I guess I really enjoyed the performance! lol.

[@sebabruzzo401]

your opinion doesn matter to anyone , and its not a rock concert asshole

[@Omarodela]

I literally FEEL so much emotion in this. Amazing beautiful performance.

[@raytempus4212]

Certifiable Genius.

[@anna_surv]

He is amazing!!!🎹

[@atfchan]

Thank you to Eric and Eric. I feel like ELEW wants to convey much much more than he's able to on the piano. The limiting factor is the instrument itself. But what's he's able to convey with the piano is already much much more than what most people can do.

[@triggawoods6888]

Amazing would be an understatement. I was actually looking for the vid when Dave Matthews was watching him play..then BOOM here comes Elew on a TED platform...

[@jabello]

I saw him open for Sting last night on his 3.0 tour. He was really really good!

[@stefanconradsson]

Thanks goes out to Eric Weinstein for cluing me in.

[@AngieF8]

Yes thanks to Eric Weinstein for me too!

[@kootdirker2448]

This man belongs up there , he is unique

[@RS-dq1xl]

Masterpiece 💯%

[@gabrielhofer3770]

[@chrisg307]

Breathtaking!

[@OxybroCone]

So much soul in this

[@g-2019]

How does this only have 22k views

[@devonrea9497]

Heartbeats - The Knife also ELEW is the greatest

[@WerUnicorns]

He is my favorite pianist.

[@108nighthawk]

Another beautiful take on Heartbeats by fhe Knife.

[@shiroartboy9931]

I love this piece!

[@mukham9065]

This is phenomenal. Loving it. I feel something to be missing after 3:33 and before 3:59; 5:19-5:21 seemed a little weird too (maybe a different tune I was expecting?). But man...amaaazing.

[@thinwolf4516]

Eric Weinstein sent me as well - via Joe Rogan.

[@FcoAngelPD]

Ídem

[@Hanneniibread]

He is truly unreal.

[@antronchestertonian9465]

[@kingnolan1514]

Here after finding out he’s the pianist on IANAHB 1 intro. Legendary

[@Raw200BC]

Reading The book, Will, brought me here! Amazing

[@highseassailor]

Bravo ELEW!

[@jonathanoneill7351]

He makes me feel what he feels inside

[@joelvilleneuve7037]

Well that was jawclenchingly good

[@imhigh0013]

Eric Adams said to say hi 👋. Blast from the past.

[@kempj5273]

I found this while looking for pianist inspiration. Remarkable if I do say so myself

[@bellaluna423]

it feels like food

[@zThisPlay]

when you want guitar but parents give piano

[@joshmundt5900]

Palm muting a piano, yup, im all in on this

[@morningstarx5340]

This is ridiculous. Sounds like what it feels like to be floating on the breath of angels while warm colored laser beams are gently colliding across the sky

[@gamerpolice8235]

WHOS ERIC WEINSTEIN

[@awesomefish_69]

Honestly, I was just looking for the guy who went missing, but... Hey....

[@thomasreich2795]

Eric sent me too

[@Galdring]

If one of those strings snap, won't he lose his hand? 17-20 tons of tension... Pretty ballsy for a guy who makes a living with his fingers.

[@itchykami]

I would wear bracers too if I were putting my hands inside a piano. That lid scares me.

[@johnmcclane2401]

what are those dials hes controlling in the back

[@eveelliot4968]

Not dials, he's muting the piano strings

[@mattecho631]

It’s like watching a movie w my ears

[@FR-ty5vn]

Interesting - playing the piano like a guitar - reminds me of Stanley Jordan playing guitar like a piano. 🎹

[@kitanakid]

How tf

[@deen2000]

Will Smith’s book “Will” brought me here. GO READ NOW!!!!

[@tamaraderouselle7133]
