Yann Tiersen: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

[@sarahbojangles1]

If I could pick one artist to listen to for the rest of my life, it'd be Yann Tiersen. I hope to see him at least once in my life!

[@titideshalles8814]

I saw him twice in Minneapolis and it was great.

[@Trawizz1]

I hope you have seen him by now. I saw him first time in Aarhus 2011 (Skyline tour). I was really dissapointed by that show, because he played nothing in the atmosphere of Amélie, and it was mostly noise rock. Though, I went to see him again in Copenhagen in 2016, on his EUSA- tour, which was totally what I wanted to hear. EUSA in full + 8 songs from his earliest albums (4 used in Amélie), and 2 from Tabarly. That was fantastic. He played everything from piano, violin, toy pianos, accordions. This is the Yann Tiersen I love.

[@sadclownn5587]

@@Trawizz1 yeah, shure, he MUST play only what YOU like & prefer, in the other way it'll be dissapointing...

[@blinkth3dog]

[@kykesoy]

I was thinking and trying to say something like that, you put the words

[@odeplugged]

Already Gone by Yann Tiersen is by far my favorite song ever. I've been listening to it since 2010 when I was in middle school and I can't explain how much it has helped me through hard and dark times. It's such a beautiful and lively song . Too bad they didn't play it during this session.

[@visqueraient]

I remember watching this when it was first posted up and now, 10 years later rewatching it brings a smile to my face. Thank you Tiersen and musicians for lighting up our lives. 😊🎶

[@TarariTuitui]

¿Por qué no tiene por lo menos 1 millón de vistas? Me rompe el corazón que algo tan hermoso no se conozca.

Yann Tiersen..You made my days...All of them..

[@amiramiri4517]

Beautiful! Yann tiersen is a great artist. Thank you so much for sharing🍀🙏

[@karisma721]

Yann Tiersen's music hits me the way Nujabes' (Japanese producer) music hits me. I love all of these songs and they are even better acoustic!! His orchestra and piano pieces are preferable in my eyes but none the less they're still great.

[@jpd908]

Tellement vrai,, tellement beau ❤

[@lauraandthestorm1]

Love this stripped down version of Monuments, being able to hear the lyrics likes this gives such a heavier emotional quality

[@HemmeligpersonXD]

yann tiersen is magic in a man

[@vinuisaacj]

Give it up for Kit Harrington, Richard Linklater and Dolph Lundgren everybody!!

[@AlexCastillioVelez]

This is so beautiful! Thank you NPR :)

Beautiful music made my day Yann tiersen my inspiration for music.

I can't wait to see him live. So amazing

[@treetrain]

Fantastic!! Thank you so much NPR!

[@pfonyt]

What an amazing concert!!! "Tiny" in length, but quite generous in its content. Thank you, thank you so much!!!

[@Teona.aka.Maria.Tureschi]

Very beautiful.

[@lilikramer64]

this is so beautiful - i hardly cry but this brought tears to my eyes

[@atlsk847]

Wow wow wow. Yann composer of magic

[@morganedidier6570]

Advice for everybody : You should all go listen to the soundtracks of the movie "Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain" almost or all (can't remember) the soundtracks are from Yann Tiersen and it's just brilliant!

[@8orbit]

+Morgane Didier He did the music for Goobye, Lenin! which was also wonderful!

[@morganedidier6570]

+Gordon Burgess Yeah ! I know :D

[@giiecubu]

Ici d'aullieurs album w/ Shannon Whright ...sublime!

[@hector7dxt]

You should listen ALL SONGS from Yann.

[@chrisark83]

Un artiste multi-instrumentiste de génie ! des bandes originales de films exceptionnelles... un. pur bonheur ! à écouter en boucle

[@daniel1382]

Just Perfect. I could feel the chords vibrations inside my nervous system

Is that a Neu! t-shirt Yann's wearing? He never fails to amaze me.

[@Yamixtoo]

Algunas de las mejores canciones de Yann Tiersen

[@MagusMirificus]

You won't be disappointed--I saw him last year, on the Skyline tour. The sound quality wasn't great, but that was just the venue. Otherwise, completely amazing. Wish I had known the songs better at that time, so I could sing along.

[@RespectedProfessional]

not first, yet still equally as important.

[@d0wt0ow]

Love it!

[@toi_techno]

I like that he's gone from this gallic whimsey to modular synth noise-core

[@rasputinsghost]

great!

[@Goshoonkeys]

just imagine you're on an transatlantic ferry with Yann Tiersen, a grand piano, some guitar, a violin and synth, fuel pumps fail, no other dangers, evacuation might last for a whiiiiile

[@danielmoen5943]

Nice music great sound

[@xxjerzyrecordsxx]

Dolph Lundgren to his ukelele, "I must break you."

[@JonTigert]

I'm surprised to see a PC on the desk. You would think with this much hipster and music involved, Mac would reign supreme. Incidently, I could totally get into Yann's sound. Its kinda cool.

[@ThomasKoezume]

Eleven years?? OMG!

[@torlundi2003]

I´m surprised, but I really love it!

Does anybody know what kind of keyboard this is? I think it's the one I've been looking for (without knowing it existed...)! Thanks in advance!

[@CrystalizedSound]

I think you'll find that's a Roland SH-101. Long discontinued but many still knocking around and still very popular :)

[@MasonIFTW]

Everyone check out Yann Tiersen on La Blogotheque!

[@5k33k]

Since I couldn't find em anywhere else, here's who is performing Yann Tiersen - Vocals/Keys Robin Allender - 6 string acoustic guitar Olavur Jakupsson - Violin/12 String Lionel Laquerrière - Ukulele/Keys Special thanks to Al from Yann's management team for the help!

YannTiersen es de mis artistas favoritos pero todo este repertorio no me suena a él :/

Adele?

[@Pjotrr84]

I got a lot actually but I don't really feel the need to show it on youtube. Plus I don't like some random stranger expressing some repressed nonsense without there being any real consequences for their actions... It's so contrary to everything one learns in actual social situations. But hey, that's just my opinion ;)

[@bonmom]

Yann wrote the sound track for Amelie.

[@IAmDanielJohann]

What? What relevance does this have to any part of the conversation/argument you've managed to strike up here in the comments section of a KZbin video you profess to be uninterested in. You aren't making yourself happy by trolling for no reason and inexplicably judging people by their KZbin video output. Not everyone has the desire to make and share videos. Hush child. Never use two exclamation points in a row, it makes you look stupid. Learn. Live. Stop trolling. Go away.

[@ForcesOfRandom]

first

No Amelie songs !!!! No way .

[@alanguedes7658]

Yann doesn't want to be recognised as "the amelie's songs composer".
