Even at 94 - his rhythm is like that of a metronome. Precise and on time. Absolutely amazing for a brain of that age. I enjoyed every second of his performance and I am a person who feels music as well as hearing it. The emotions are intense in parts and then more relaxed and soothing in others.

He is drawing such powerful sounds from the depths of his 94 years of accumulated experience. There is a nuanced intensity to his well balanced ebb and flow. Stunning, may God bless him

@Ben Birchman a cover is really an imitation or near interpretation of an original performance. The idea is that it mimics the style of the original performers. Hence, “cover bands.” More recently it is used to refer to any performance of a popular song by someone other than the original performer, but that’s not really correct unless it’s at least somewhat of an imitation.

It's true. This piece can't be done properly without feeling your way through all of it, from beginning to end. If it doesn't capture your soul as you play it, something is wrong. It's one of the greatest compositions in all of music. That said, this is the 1st movement. The other two movements really make it complete, but like his 5th symphony, we all too often get just the 1st movement. Not knocking it at all, though; he does a great job of it here.

The only thing I don’t like is the Tempo (a little too fast for me) and sometimes the grace notes are too accentuated (long) for my taste. Listen do Valentina Lisitsas Version

I've literally performed this at a recital, I know every single note and yet this made me weep, no lie

Какое-то очень правильное исполнение этого произведения... Словно в лунном свете.. Благодарю Вас, добрый человек! Это было бесподобно...

Pan jest wielkim człowiekiem. Gdyby takich ludzi było więcej nie było by wojen. Ludzie żyli by w pokoju, jeden do drugiego był by bratem. Muzyka to potrafi.

Beethoven himself would salute your passion.

And now he's 95 years old and I pray he can still play because I'm sure he'd be sad if he couldn't. This is just beautiful. 🎼🖤 Thank you for sharing this video with us.

Wow, I thought this was just some random dude but it turns out he is a legit composer, according to wikipedia he is still alive and currently 97.

Потрясающее исполнение. Одна из любимых мною вещей. Спасибо. Очень одухотворенно и проникновенно. До слез....

Then he'll be 104 and will go on to remember this piece by heart

This performance is more impressive than many active professional pianists. His spirit of dedication to this performance is what gives it its quality.

This melts my heart, so many memories he must have, while playing beautiful music.😊

94 year old composer Philip Springer playing the Moonlight Sonata ❤ ✡️ 🙏 ❤ ✡️ 🙏. I have never seen anything more beautiful musically in life. My tears are naturally running down my face everytime I see and listen to this gentleman playing his piano and especially how he plays it and express his entire love for this music. This beautiful and timeless classic masterpiece - Moonlight Sonata - was composed between 1801 and 1802 and is one of Beethoven's best known and most popular piano works. Philip Springer’s incredibly soulful, loving, romantic and completely intimate way of expressing and playing this classical and legendary piece of music with his beautiful hands, his entire face and body tells a unique life story of the highest professional, musical genius and a true mensch by definition with unlimited amount of life experiences. I wish each and everyone of you a very nice, loving and peaceful Shabbat shalom and Yawm al-Jum'a and everyone else a very enjoyable and relaxing weekend 💐 ❤️ 😊 🙏

Moved to tears by the beauty and depth of feeling in his playing. Though his body is 94 years old, his soul and talent will be young forever and ever. Thank you!!💕

To my eyes, he looks a six-year-old brilliant boy who loves art and fashion.

Really applaud this gentleman. At his age to play this beautiful piece so perfectly. Enjoyed watching him play.

Played it perfect for the tempo he was playing at. The emotion came from that and his consistency in maintaining it through out.

Beautiful, beautiful. The dislikers are ignorant beyond measure. Such a joy to watch! 🥳 thank you for sharing x

Superb performance. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

wonderful

He truly played this song from the depths of his soul

You can probably learn to play this in a week or two but to play it like him takes decades. You can hear the character in it. Better than most professional recordings I've heard.

And just like that, he was 40 years again! 💥

This is the most beautiful and passionate version I have ever heard. WOW!

This is exactly how Beethoven wanted it played. Beautiful tempo, expression, touch, great pedalling and feeling. Bravo Sir!

It reminds me of the passage in romans 11 that says “For the gifts and call of God are irrevocable.” You can see even dementia patients still able to play incredible pieces impeccably! And this is absolutely no exception.

Nobody deserves the pain of living forever. A decently long life yes but living forever is a curse. You continue to exist while everyone around you dies and you see the world change for the worse even if somethings get better. On top of that you also deal with medical conditions. I agree tho, this man deserves to live forever in the memories of those who view this amazing masterpiece. 👏
