Rush E 2 | Pianist Reacts
Музыка
In this video I react to Rush E 2 by Sheet Music Boss. The original Rush E came out about 4 years ago and created a big internet storm of people trying to play it, since then Sheet Music Boss has created lots of different variations of similar pieces based around different keys. Now he has created a Rush E 2! As a pianist; I wanted to react and share my frustration for only having 10 fingers!
Looking for some help with the piano?

Yeah, I figured you would do it again, since the wild Sheet Music Boss returned and made a second, even more impossible version of the infamous Rush E song. It's just not happening for any human to play it, professional or not. But, I do hope Mark Rober brings that TAS robot piano to play this one...yeah, it can't happen either, because in the end, it showed more notes. Lol

You'd need 9 pianosts to play the impossible version, that's because the piano has 88 keys, so each one gets 10 keys, except one who gets 8 only. For rush E 2 though, I don't know because at the end they arded some more octaves to the piano.

as an amateur composer i was a little worried Rush E 2 would be a repetition of the original melody (just harder and faster). i felt those fears were confirmed in the first stages of the piece but was pleasantly surprised when the melody changed keys and evolved. the added touch of meme culture was also greatly appreciated

I went through the hardest parts of the original RUSH E in an attempt to figure out how many grand pianos/pianists would be needed to play the FULL version of the tune. Turns out, you can do it with only 11 grand pianos and 21 pianists (although one of the pianists will require 2 engines), as follows: The first four pianists all share one grand piano. With eight hands, they are able to play the whole of the melody - these obviously would need to be your 4 best pianists including your lead pianist, and they cant be physically too fat as they all need to share one piano. Of course you CAN add extra pianos to make it easier, but this is the LEAST pianos needed. Then the second grand piano... you have to fit EIGHT pianists around it! They mostly dont need to be able to play a complicated tune though so they can stand to the side, lie on the lid of the piano, etc. They have 2 jobs - firstly to play the repeated notes in the final movement (there are 16 notes, so each pianist has one note per hand to play repeatedly. The second job is to play the 'RUSH E' letters in the sections when they appear. Now the next 8 grand pianos only have one pianist each on them (a relief for claustrophobic pianists!). Again they are mainly purely for the final movement. These pianists play the parts where you constantly go all the way up and down the piano repeatedly - there are in the end 8 of these lines, hence you need 8 pianists and 8 pianos. And finally the last grand piano, again tended by only one pianist. This pianist is the one that requires a couple of engines to play his parts though, one engine being a block of wood or metal that lets him play 9 keys at once, the second engine being a block of wood/metal shaped so he can strike all the keys on the piano at once. The part this pianist plays is obvious. So thats what is needed. 21 pianists, a minimum of 11 grand pianos, and 2 engines.

What I find most amazing about rush E is that even though it is a hot mess it still kinda slaps.
it seams as though the start of the song is like a reaction to how easily others played the song so it becomes deranged and erratic which really gives it some story cause its like its mentally progressing
