And this is why sopranos always get melodies and baritone basses are screwed

Relate, so hard to this as an alto that went to a tenor. As an alto in choir I always had either the melody or harmony. Tenor it's like, 1 note or a less noticable harmony.

Eh, Für Elise just sounds strange due to the harmonic+melodic support notes being the higher ones.

All right, there is a certain part in the Hungarian rhapsody where you're supposed to play with hands crossed. So I wonder what will happen if you just don't...

If you're playing it properly/normally, you physically can't "just not cross hands" for the parts you're referring to. The only alternative would be to bring the left hand up to seamlessly take the right hand part and move the right hand up to play the crossed over left hand part above, then seamlessly bring them back down to their original places for the next notes. I... Suppose this is probably mechanically doable, actually, but it would be extremely difficult to pull off while still sounding musical and seamless and such. And that's just for the crossing parts in the slow first section, the Lassan. If you're talking about the crossing during the Friska, the same is technically true but it would be an order of magnitude more awkward to pull off. The best thing about crossed hand technique is that most serious composers only call for it when it serves the musical setting and adds to the overall sound, rather than using it as a showy gimmick for crowd pleasing, which it is often viewed as today. The simple truth is that playing with hands crossed is not really any more or less difficult than doing anything else on the piano; it requires the samd attention to detail and finesse of technique as anything else and is likewise made more or less difficult by the difficulty of the music the composer wrote.

A haunting jauntiness to familiar tunes is always refreshing to my senses. Thank you!

Fur Elise sounded so cool!!! Need a full cover

These deserve to be their own covers especially that fur Elise one and the first one

every piano player has tried this at least once

literally story of my life as a self taught pianist lol I minored in music in college and last minute decided to take a piano course that was like for beginner pianists but intermediate/advanced musicians and I thought it was gonna be chill and I was gonna have 0 problems until I realized that my technique was off for every single assignment

We need a full version of fur Elise hands swapped.

This is so blessed but cursed at the same time... HOW!

Crossing your hands makes things really difficult for coordinating And you made it seem easy

Now I want to hear fur Elise swapped in its entirety

This looks like a fun idea! I'm going to go try it now

You sir, got my sub. I want to try playing Moonlight Sonata like this now

The maple leaf rag sounded absolutely incredible imo

This sounds seriously great!! 🤩🤩

ohhh sounds so cool, I'd definitely want to see more of this

Amazing as always!!

when you're this talented anything sounds good

i needed this.

I am just amazed at your talent

So inverting them makes them sound more ominous. Got it!

Man’s got them buff arms

The last one, maple leaf rag if I'm not mistaken, became like the whole new piece

Its like typing with only your pointer fingers but still managing to be fast

😂😂😂 I love your videos 👏👏

ive never thought of doing this

I REMMEBWR doing this all the time with songs when I was bored

That’s really impressive bro

Fur Elise I’ve heard it sooo many times even I have to learn and play my friend do for her piano exam

oliver’s back, delivering again another masterpiece

Could you do full version of Elise's Lettre but switched? It sound so cool !

I love this channel. Always so random

The guy created a new piece

Beautiful!

this is so impressive

every cross hand moments make it more like horror music

Impressive... Congratulations....

that version of für elise sounds like a villain's theme and i can't explain why

Fur Elise sounded awesome

Lol I always wanted to try that. the cross hand thing

✨chord inversions✨

lol I try this all the time at home Great vid

It went from Oliver Street playing the piano to M.C. Escher playing the piano.

No one talking bout how angelic his hands and arms look

Its really nice and love the KAWAI piano 😊

the end is very good : )

Fur Elise was hilarious :D

With songs that have a good harmony you can do that

awesome talent. this is brain twister

I got a simply piano ad before this😂

i played some jazz standards like this. right hand to the left.

That Maple Leaf Rag one was very interesting

he just flips the bass cleft and treble cleft places

maple leaf rag was insane

the maple leaf rag one actually sounds really interesting

this sounds like some boss battle i dont know why

i don't even hold my hands in the correct position and i fine

I play maple leaf rag, that’s impossible to flip, yet here we are

Fur Elise swapped sounds like cry me a river 😂

this is going to be so relatable to me when i learn piano, i have 8 digits on my hands, so i'm going to have to do some unusual things to make it work

I’m gonna try the Fur Elise one, it’s the only song I know how to play out of those 😂

It's not that hard I mean the hands are not really switching up, right hand is still doing the same but 2 octaves lower and the left hand is also doing the same as before but 2 octaves higher. Still good video, good job

@aerohydra3849

That's right, it looks very impressive but in reality it's easier than it looks. The overall fingering is the same, it's literally just a change in hand position- doing it without the hands crossed and instead making the left hand play the right hand part and vice versa would be a lot more challenging.

I guarantee this is what music will evolve to. The backing tracks being in the fore front.

Me when I learn the hand cross on bohemian rhapsody and I apply it to every song

drum players playing piano:

i love how ur piano says kawai on it

I thought it would end with him playing bohemian rhapsody without the crossing.

I would totally love to see you play some Kirby 64 piano pieces.

personally, i like the one that goes "da na da na da na da na" best

woah maple leaf rag was so good !

Last one sounded like a new song with switched hands

Talented

I think the last one was my favourite

Fur elise sound like the 'villain' version

I like to play moonlight sonata with hands swapped - but not crossing over, just playing the lh with my rh and vice versa

good playing

Dude that’s awesome

Thats wonderful

Is amazing!!..

Bro got the secret achievement 💀😅

Für Elise sounded amazing actually wtf
