Hamelin plays Chopin - "Minute Waltz"

[@WBensburg]

There are a least 2 copies of this on KZbin, and no one has yet commented on the brilliant pun Hamelin creates with his version. I wonder how many miss it.

[@WhatTheHelicopter98]

WBensburg I kinda smelled a pun, but i can't recognize it. Please enlighten me

[@WhatTheHelicopter98]

WBensburg Oh! Its probably something to do with the dogs! right?

[@WBensburg]

What The Helicopter (大和美琴) It is indeed a pun. This is the famous "Minute Waltz", and his variation at the end is played in "seconds": which is a musical interval (think notes that are right next to each other). Minutes and Seconds, just brilliant!

There is also the wonderful brief excerpt from Blue Danube in the left hand.

[@ClaramayNivetta]

I guess you could say he transitioned into the Second Waltz in the middle of his performance then

[@gznubouit]

He really Hamelinized this Chopin minute waltz!!!! What a Genius...!!!!!!!

[@Daniel_Zalman]

He makes it look so incredibly easy. Marvelous!

[@dayellowguy]

Love it!

I always find it interesting how people start to leave before they know the concert is over. chances are you had to pay for the seat, and you probably went there because you wanted to hear the performer or music, so why leave when there could be more to come?

We heard the same wonderful, playful performance yesterday in Chicago.

[@Sijaification]

Marvelous

[@db7sib7m]

'Till 1:33 I was thinking "oh hamelin is just playing the normal version of the waltz". Then I realised I was wrong :D

[@MScosta6]
