    This piece has a very special meaning to me. When my wonderfull and special-needs niece died, 15 years ago, she was only 18 years old.
    I was so sad after her death, that I wrote and recorded a song in her memory. I had been deeply involved in her life since birth, and often stayed at their house or in hospital with her to let my brother and sister in law get some time to themself and rest. Special-needs children needs 24/7 care. But having one in your life is something so special. They make your heart feel like crushed velvet. Crushed in the sence that you are sad and devastated that they have to suffer through so many hardships. And like velvet, because the love and care you give them is rewarded ten-fold. Those of you who know someone, or is in a situation like that knows exactly what I am saying.
    So when she died I became a bit...empty. I needed to honor her in some way. So I wrote special lyrics to Comptine d'un autre été and used Audacity to record the song. I still have the file on my computer, and it is obvious that I was a mix of sad and happy when I performed it. Sad that her life ended so early, but happy that I could make a special song for her, celebrating her life - knowing we had given her all the love she deserved throughout her life - however short it was.
    I hope one day I can play it to my sister in law, but she is not strong enough to hear it yet unfortunately. She has been very affected by this as it was a situation that went on for so many years. But when she is ready to hear it, I will sit down with her, hold her hand and let her hear the song of her precious daughters life.
    I hope that day will come soon....

    "Comptine d’un autre été: L’après-midi" translating to "Nursery rhyme of another summer: The afternoon.", from the film Amelie, contains arguably the most well known left-hand ostinato in the entire piano repertoire. It's hard not to feel relaxed when listening to this piece, and in this particularly stressful time, is a nice welcome change.

    Tip: if you try to study this, first learn rh and lh separately. It's easier to learn the piece if you don't combine the hand positions in your head, but play them as two separate pieces (because of the different tempo).
    Bonus tip: Don't think too much when you play the hands. Just play them. Don't think at all, actually. Lh is just repeating the same measure again and again.

    This is called real music. Nothing in the world releases and catches you the way like music does. Feelings occur out of nowhere. You could be the happiest person on earth, but the next moment you're sad and depressed. This is what makes music great. Sharing a story without even saying words. You can't describe it but you feel it

    to me, it sounds like the perfect blend of wistful sorrow. it's the feeling of yearning for something you may never have or will have again. whether that is an impossible fantastical reality you've dreamed up for yourself, or something you once had in the past. it could be a former lover, a person who has long passed on, a treasured possession, or the feeling of never experiencing something again. absolutely beautiful cover ❤️

    I am so happy.... you have no idea. I stopped learning in grade 3 conservatory at the age of 8 because my parents couldn't afford to get me a full size keyboard at the time. I heard this song over 5 years ago for the first time and almost cried at the fact that I would never be able to play. For me, learning sheet music is very difficult and not intuitive.
    I literally got my first keyboard, full size with weighted keys in 2019. I barely play. I picked this up last year and learned the left hand and gave up thinking it was beyond my skills.
    Yesterday after a very stressful week, I somehow went to the keyboard and started playing some notes from memory, opened this video, and now today I know the whole song!!!
    This is a big deal for me, thank you so much. I have a lot of practice to make it sound good, but I can play it!!

I absolutely loved Ballade No, 1 much more than any other Ballade, then after listening to Balade No, 4 I still thought Ballade No, 1 was better, but then the more I listened to Ballade No, 4 the more it grew on me, and now it's about equal for me, I guess some pieces you love the more you listen to it, like La Campenella for me, at first I only liked the ending but now I love the beginning, and Op, 25 No, 5, Chopin Etude "Wrong Note" at first I didn't like the beginning but I loved the middle section and I listened to it for that, but, now I absolutely love the beginning even more then the beautiful middle, if anything, it's amazing how a classical piece can grow on you.

    Few years ago i was listening to this song with my mom on the car. It was when i had just started practicing the piano and i was a little a kid. I remember her turning around smiling while she was driving and saying "do you think you'll be able to play as beautiful as that one day?" And i answered that if ill be able to play this one day it'll be the best day of my life. Playing this now brings back so many emotions...

      Good idea.. I bought a hella cheap one just to start because I was extremely motivated to just get started. I've been playing for 2 years now and I wanna switch it already but just never find enough money to get a better one. Tldr, get a good piano to start with

    I dont know if Ive ever come across film music that so perfectly catches the essence of the main character as Tiersen's music. Romantic dreaming, longing, sadness, melancholia, beauty, gentleness. But also hope and curiosity about life.

    Most others I've heard play it much faster and much louder, and it just fails to capture the same emotions from me.
