=====(The Details/Performer's Notes)=====
One probably could just play these all in minor and call it a day but that's no fun. So here's a brief breakdown of what I did to each tune.
Mary Had a Little Lamb: I kept the melody in C major and displaced the root down a third to the relative minor. Then I shift it up a half step to create that unsettling dissonance. Put both hands in the extreme registers of the piano, slather it in pedal and you're done.
Twinkle Twinkle: The melody is intact here again, but I added an augmented chord accompaniment that sweeps across the piano as a backdrop to the ringing 'bell' like melody notes plucked out by the left hand. Easily the trickiest technique-wise of the bunch. Fun Fact: this shares the same melody as the "Alphabet Song" and "Baa Baa Black Sheep"
Row Row Row: This one is just straight up in minor (I allowed myself one!). I changed some of the harmonies around and ham it up a bit for the final cadence.
Jingle Bells: This one revolves around the C Minor-Major Chord. Kind of making the melody start out in G major-ish and then transition to C minor for the close. It almost has a weird bi-tonal thing going on but never really commits to it. Very fun to play.
I had a lot of fun coming up with different ways to spookify these classic tunes. I hope you enjoy!
Your Pianist,
Erik C.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Piranha Plants on Parade Wonder Effect Song (Piano)
zhlédnutí 51KPřed 10 měsíci
One of the catchiest new tunes to come out of the recently release Super Mario Bros. Wonder also happens to coincide with one of the first wonder flowers in the game.

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet - Nemona Battle Theme (Piano)
zhlédnutí 32KPřed rokem
Here's my piano version of Nemona's Regular Battle theme, just ahead of the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet DLC: The Teal Mask drop. Unpopular opinion: her regular battle theme is better than her Champion Battle theme. Whereas the last couple of generations have had weak/forgettable champions, Scarlet and Violet finally gave us one with some actual character development/personality. And her battle t...
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Tulin Sage of Wind (Piano)
zhlédnutí 38KPřed rokem
This is probably most people's first Sage and dungeon in Tears of the Kingdom. The game seems to push you to go there first. Probably the best buildup and boss battle out of all the Temples imho. This is one of the more overtly hopeful out of all the TOTK tracks. Enjoy! Sheets: to be announced. These will take a bit longer as the free nature of this track makes it less straightforward to transc...
Zelda (TOTK) Riju Sage of Lightning Theme Piano
zhlédnutí 37KPřed rokem
Another strong theme, reminiscent of Urbosa'a from Botw but with more energy/flair. This version of the theme is the slightly extended one used in the cutscene after you beat the Scourge of the Lightening Temple. Which order did you do the temples/Sages (3rd for me). Sheets: www.musicnotes.com/l/K54Nq The sheets have a few slight differences from this video. Think of this performance as more of...
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Yunobo Sage of Fire Theme (Piano)
zhlédnutí 39KPřed rokem
Sheets: www.musicnotes.com/l/fqBhP TOTK is here and we are starting with Yunobo's, The Sage of Fire's theme. This one really caught my ear in the cutscene after clearing the Fire Temple so I knew I had to cover it. I'll eventually do all the Sage's themes and a medley, but I have to beat the game first! So much to explore. Note: there is a wrong note in the melody (supposed to be a g-flat not g...
Zelda Breath of the Wild Medley - The Four Champions
zhlédnutí 174KPřed rokem
To celebrate the release of Tears of the Kingdom, and to mark the passing of an age, here is a medley highlighting each of the 4 champion themes. Let me know which is your favorite in the comments below. 0:00 Kass's Theme 1:03 Revali's Theme 2:10 Daruk's Theme 2:57 Mipha's Theme 4:30 Urbosa's Theme 6:03 Kass's Theme (Reprise) 6:36 Finale/Main Theme Piano Man's Discord (Ages 13 ): discord.gg/Qj6...
Urbosa's Theme - Zelda Breath of the Wild Piano (Triumphant Version)
zhlédnutí 28KPřed rokem
Sheets: www.musicnotes.com/l/ZcDhW This version of Urbosa's theme starts out fairly standard, but then builds in intensity towards the final climactic cadence, in the second half. Tremolos abound so players be warned. I'd like to think this more triumphant version is what her theme would have been if she were not defeated those 100 or so years ago.

Lance/Champion Red Battle Theme Extended (Piano)
zhlédnutí 84KPřed rokem
The battle theme for the OG protagonist from Green/Red/Blue in Gold/Silver/Crystal. Also infamously used for Lance's Championship battle. Amazing what Junichi Masuda was able to do with 3 lines and a rhythm track in those 8-bit chiptunes back in the day. This was originally supposed to be a round of VERSUS, but I delayed so much that my opponent had to upload. Sorry Ryan! Check out my opponent'...
Volo Theme (Piano Etude) Pokémon
zhlédnutí 364KPřed rokem
The infamous Volo Theme from Pokémon Legends Arceus. Probably one of the hardest Boss fights in the series so far (here's looking at you Pokémon Scarlett and Violet). This one took a bunch of practice to play on this digital keyboard. Sheets: www.musicnotes.com/l/H2Kh4 Edit: I can't believe it but after listening to the original I unintentionally missed a chord change. First time I think. Bonus...

J.S. Bach Invention no. 13 in A minor (Piano)
zhlédnutí 32KPřed 2 lety
This is the first 2-part invention I ever learned back in my childhood. These 2-part inventions pit 2 different melodic lines against each other in glorious counterpoint. These set of 15 inventions are a wonderful introduction to Bach's style.

5 Levels of Ganon's Tower/Ganondorf Theme (Piano Etude)

Here's a Classic video game tune from one of the most iconic villains of all time: Ganondorf. This one emulates the strain of climbing his tower in Ocarina of Time, getting progressively more and more passionate/difficult as the track unfolds. This is a VERSUS round against my colleague Ryan Z 'Piano Guy'. Check out his version of the theme here and VOTE in the comments who you think 'won' this...
