HENRI'S BOOGIE - FULL HD

- Due to several comments asking for a decent quality version of this clip, I'm pleased to offer the full HD version of Henri Herbert's performance on the public piano at St Pancras International railway station for your viewing pleasure.
I uploaded the original as a low bit rate, low resolution quickie, due to having a lousy internet connection where I was at the time. A big regret now, given that the clip went crazy viral - but how was I to know??
So here it is, Boogie Woogie sensation Henri Herbert in full HD 1080p glory, along with a slightly remixed audio - a little more of the ambient camera sound, because the disbelievers out there are convinced this was over-dubbed, somehow. As well as the camera built in (rubbish) audio, I placed a Zoom H4n stereo recorder just behind the piano to record good quality sound with less of the background noise audible, to later synch in post production. This resulted in also picking up the sound of broken strings inside the piano, which many people are convinced is the sound of a hidden percussionist somewhere, playing a hi-hat, and therefore it must be an overdub fake studio recording setup or something!
It's shaky here and there, because I had planned to intercut my shots with those of a colleague filming on his phone (he can be seen in some shots), and therefore moved around for some different angles in the 'crowd'. However, he didn't film the whole performance and I ended up simply whacking the whole thing up on youtube as I'd filmed it. Sure, it's not the best advert for my camera operating skills, but apart from one or two haters, some 30 million people don't seem to mind too much.

This has to be in England. Nowhere else would you get such a non-reaction to such a ridiculous display of talent.
Of course it is, and not just any part of England, but London! haha.
😂
Try new York.
1 year late but yea it’s London’s Kings Cross station lol.
Yea wasn't even sure if it was England.barely any English people even there how can you tell...
I’ve watched this probably 15 times and don’t get tired of how talented he is. Wish people near him would say something or at least clap in response for completely entertaining them at such a high level!! Wow!!
ZOW!!
So sad for Sabine Giannamore for not arriving in time to hear to this masterpiece
😂😂😂
😂😂😂

How could you just walk by someone playing like this. I would have missed my plane.
I would have been dancing and shouting the whole I missed my flight and be happy with it
They're probably embarrassed.
Me too.
You definitely would have missed your plane, it's a train station!?!
…mind-blowingly full bodied boogie woogie ….all that deadwood around can’t even clap when they hear a once in a lifetime live performance by a true virtuoso..! This incredible pianist plays regularly somewhere….I’d-like to see him live!
All that deadwood perfect description I can't believe the fella never takes his ear phones out what was he listening to !
I'm 84, I remember jiving all night to stuff like this, no doubt about it the mans magic
Keith White you lived through the best eras man... you are so lucky! 💕
you look so young for your age, you may easy live another 80 years.
@@captainireland1375 no
Rock on young man 👍🌷😎😁
I wish I could have lived it but I wasn’t allowed in the building 🤷🏾♂️
I love these guys. They build a super backbeat very much like the 50s and 60s rock and roll. I'm 74 years old and this music makes me feel young again. I bought a Bose Blutooth speaker just so I could pair my phone with it and I can listen to The Refreshments all day inside or outside... I love it!
how the hell could you not give that kind of talent 100% attention?????
its UK classic
Signs of a broken society - when artistic talent goes almost unnoticed. Barely an emotional reaction.
it's normal in London mate
Legends say that man is still waiting for Sabine Giannamore
😂😂😂😂
She got unintentionally immortal thanks to Henri🎹🎶
😂😂still is😀😀
hahah thats funny ^5 !!1
3:05 he found her
Had the great pleasure of seeing Henri perform at the "100 Club" in Oxford Street, London yesterday - Oct 26th '23. Massive eneregy, enthusiasm , and brilliance all round. Can't wait until he plays here again in London - probably not until a year's time though :(
Foockin' shredding! He cut this piano into confetti.
I’m 88 . And my old feet could not stop moving. God love him.
How can people not stop and turn around and look and listen to this ? Amazing playing. I would stop in my tracks and soak it in. This man is simply awesome ! He has a new fan in me.
How many people does it take to ignore a genius musician?
Nevěřím , že ty spousty flegmatiků v blízkosti tohoto fenomiálního hráče nejsou pouhou nahranou fikcí .....ten výkon nemůže nechat chladným nikoho z normálních lidí ......? Nebo se mýlím ? 🎶🎶☀️
Amazing...that those people ignore such fantastic playing, they must be devoid of soul!!
Your right they have no soul 😢
My god, I wish I had half the talent this man possesses in one finger. Bloody brilliant
Astonished how many people dont realise the talent and skill it takes to do that. I would do anything to experience that!
Each hand is playing a separate tune. I find this astounding !
This guy is freaking awesome! Do these people not realize how talented he is!?
Here I sit in my wheelchair at 3:50am (10-27-2019) in the morning in a nursing home I stay at. I live in Chicago, Illinois. I am watching and listening to Henri H jam on the piano. His playing is giving me goosebumps. Despite my name, If we didn't have the BOOGIE WOOGIE first, we sure in the heck would not have any Metal. Go Man Go! Love all of his boogie-woogie videos. Can't get enough!
kingofmetal1961 I could listen to this all day!
I’m in a chair, too. But right now, I am dancing in my soul.
Good Luck, My Friend...
Thank you for you kind words!
How can people just stand there and not be blown away??? Well done Henri!!!!!
isso é em um metrô mano

This is my favorite piano performance of all time. It makes me so happy every time I see and hear it.
Video's 6 years old and I still come back to it every month or so, absolutely love it. Reminds me of Rick Wakeman from Yes.
Actually, the first version has been up since 2013 - 11 years.
I see It once a day...am i normal? 😮
I've watched this video over a hundred times, over the years and the one thing that always gets me is how all these people stand around and don't respond to the music! I can't stop moving my feet and head every time I listen! I'm bopping in my seat! I don't get it!
Lots of potted plants in the world and many people just look at their phones. It's a pity that listening to music has become such a minority avocation.
It still blows me away that there are people like this! Unmoved and unresponsive.
Most likely have earbuds and are listening to music, while on a phone call, during this concert🤣.
And they missed the beauty of the forest for all of the trees in their way.
They stoic people personify the term boring.
That’s exactly what happened to me! Can’t stop moving my feet, the whole body is in motion and if I had been there, I‘m sure I would have danced the whole time and, at least, give this fabulous artist a big applause! And the people are standing around like a company of deadmen.🤔🤔
This video never gets old! I've watched it countless times and love it every single time!
Ditto 😍
Double ditto. Dozens of times!
agreed! 😂and same, probably thousands of times, how honestly inspiring is it! for me, the first segment 0:53 - 1:21 that lasts just under 30seconds, is pure excellence.
Yep, every time still is amazing!
I know nothing about music, but I stumble onto this video every few months and end up laughing while crying, in total amazement and inspiration. Just blows my mind. I love it that this guy (Henri Herbert) didn't waste his incredible talent. Think about the brain it would take, and dexterity, and resolve, and dedication to get to this Jedi-level of ANYTHING. Thank you to Henri, thank you to the good people who filmed, and posted, and the reposted in HD. This just makes my whole week, every few months- honestly: THANK YOU
I feel exactly the same.
"Jedi-Level.." AMAZING descriptor Mr Smith!!! And right on Point!
The lady standing off the left end of the piano with a large gray purse is really enjoying Henri’s playing and his ability and the person just behind her left shoulder really gives a big smile when Henri changes keys! I have listened to this a bunch myself. Great playing Henri!
I come back and listen every now and then.....Must be about 120 times now.....
Me to. Just hope the pricks standing around chewing gum were paid to do that. !!
I think I just watched this video for the 100th time, and now like it even more than the 99th! Excellent!!
Words can't describe the talent this man has! Incredible!
Mother of god, I am missing my train, bus, flight, everything, what an absolute beautiful moment that must have been!
An absolute, positive sound that makes me move while sitting in my chair. What a gifted talent!
I am just blown away.. how can anyone who enjoys music of any nature give this a thumbs down. And to see 21 of them makes you loose faith in humanity. This is amazing playing
Me too...probably 1 direction fans...I heard this guy on JAZZ FM...that's what led me here...
Why do people watch such a talent and leave a dislike?! Cant understand
They could be disliking the video, not necessarily the piano player which was terrific but pretty much ignored by the public around him.
Perhaps it's because they are troglodytes.
I've been watching him for several years now and he's great showman, very impressive. 😊
I would love to play a piano like that. Just awesome 👌.
Well done you!!!!
This guy playing like a BOSS and few even acknowledge it.
I hope the asian guy found Sabine
Ayoye😂🤭
Джеки был чем то занят да и вообще не обращал внимания на шум😂
LMAO.. Sabine was standing next to him the whole time... Enjoying the music
Lmao
I’m English and if I’d been there, I would have had a smile from ear to ear and crying my eyes out with joy and admiration!
This gentleman’s skills are beyond awesome.
I've lost count of how many times I watch this video! I've got to be near a thousand times already!
Same
Exactly my words..
HENRI HERBERT. . ONE "MONSTEROUSLY" TALENTED GUY. . . NEVER GET TIRED OF THIS VIDEO. . . . .
The bystanders are very lost! These poor folks are on the wrong side of the pond for good music.
What a brilliant audience it's like there was no out of this world piano player there!
can't believe how many people just walk past and ignore what fantastic talent is performing for them !
Henri is no joke...blasting the ivory....good on him.....you can practice all you want but some people have god givin talent..here's one of em....
I’m from the uk , but watch you play every day or two!!! Boy, have you got Rhythm and blues in those fingers, You are THE BEST, JUST LOVE EVERYTHING YOU PLAY, 😍👍👍
I'm amazed how people can stand so still like that - the urge to move would overwhelm me! Really good!
Super fast fingers and flawless tempo😁. A clearly genius at improvised playing, so smooth and easy!!!!
Good lord, that crowd. I guess people who are determined to be unhappy will always find a way.
😂😂😂😂 Miserable lot!
Brings a smile to my face every time I hear this!
this video is addicting, i come here probably atleast 4-5 times every month
Nearly three million views , I’d hate to think how many times I’ve watched it ..you can’t teach someone to play like this , it’s a gift .amazing ..
People like this know how to play before they were even born
You can't teach someone to play like this? Lmao. You've clearly never played an instrument.
Great to see someone playing without interuption from Brendan Kavanagh.
Brendan is great but who would you pay money to see? Henri, for me!
It's sad sad how this world had gone a man of sheer mind blowing talent an zilch recognition.The crowd don't realize he's doing it FOR THEM.
This man slamming on a piano would make me late for wherever I was going. It's intoxicating how both hands perform to perfection at that speed for so long.
The way those fingers crawling all over the keys like a spider at such speed it's as if he connected his brain to the piano
Frankly, I think it’s brilliant. Low res or high doesn’t matter to me, it’s the spirit of the music that carries through. Thanks for capturing this magical moment.
Amazing piano player , you deserve World fame. Gretings from serbia.
Greetings
You know what's crazy about this? When he first sits down he plays around a little on the keys and notices that there's a busted key that's rattling. He picks a key center that will let him play that key and uses it as a makeshift drum accompaniment. Unreal.
How can these people not be dancin or at least swayin to this? Damn, this guy's good.
All those people just standing there...how can you do that....music is all we have left
This is like finding a diamond 💎 in the middle of acres of grass and not being able to experience the pure delight with anybody. Absolutely a pure genius. Thank you for sharing ❤
what an awesome talent and sound. I am amazed at how many people walk by like nothing at all is going on, everyone should stop and admire that skill
Same thought. De-sensibilized human species nowadays
I was teaching myself to play on an upright just like this that I inherited from my grandma a few months ago.
And then I watched this video.
Now I'll have some extra firewood come winter.
King Bastard lol yeah I’ve said the same about my guitars
Henri, thank you for such beautiful Boogie!! You are genius.
Fantastic. An absolute star. We mere mortals are unworthy.
I wonder how many key strokes there were in that? 10/sec for 5 mins is 3000. Wow
If your listening to this December 31st 2021 then your a legend for great taste, Love you all ❤
That piano is probably going to need a cigarette after he's done with it.
😂😂😂
Hahahahahahaha I just burst out laughing out loud at that 😂😂😂😂😂🚬
Рот закрой, фуфел
And a nice sake
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
A great video to the greatest rock and roll song ever. Loved it thank you for sharing.👍
I saw this guy like 6 months ago in a local bar in Austin. He was the very first person to play for the night, no one was paying attention to him but me and like 2 other people, and the bar manager asked him if he could turn down his keyboard because it was too loud. Whatever, didn't matter, it was obvious to me this guy could tear up the keys and it was a great set.
I can't believe no one called the fire department! That piano was on the cusp of bursting into flames!
I play piano, but watching this guy has inspired me to get better! Awesome!
I need your mentality lol I was classically trained for 8 years and these videos make me wonder why I try.. but maybe I'll get on my keys later tonight! Thanks kind internet stranger 😊
Just so incredible. You’re awesome Henri 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
No one is clapping, or stomping with their feet; or dancing.
Does the audience have a pulse.
Henri; you are the greatest boogie woogie, rock and roll piano player. 🎤 drop.
What do you expect? It’s a subway, people have places to be.
@@parallax7789not really
@@knives5964 what do you mean not really?
HOW, tell me HOW, can anybody with a heart, a soul and a bit of humanity just pass without even look ONCE to this pianist. I dont understand it
Jordan's Ragtime Bar because they have places to be. It’s a train station.
Maybe they just don’t have a soul? That could be it.

Absolutely masterful! Love it when you grab a good breath at 4:24 and then take it to another level and proceed to melt the keyboard down... Boogie on, Henri!!!
I just found Henri moments ago and I love the music. Just a bit earlier than that I found another great pianist Terry Miles. There is a video titled THEY TRY TO BAN THE MUSIC.. SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT by the channel Terry Miles Oct 13, 2018. After it I watched a video titled THE ROCK AND ROLL PIANO POLICE by the channel Brendan Kavanagh November 4, 2017. This video was great too.
Look how everyone has no problem getting real close to each other, standing still, not doing anything and just smiling. Music performances like this are quite powerful.
Thanks for the smile my guy, needed it today
😪
Crap, it's midnight and I'm stuck in the boogie woogie videos and can't stop. First Dr. K, then Terry Miles and now you........holy crap this is some crazy good playing!!
Damn, you probably slept well tho
He is best
Holy crap! Amazing playing. You deserved a better audience than those people that's for sure.
What's wrong with those people all around not responding to this great playing?!
Stuck in the matrix bro , NPCs everywhere
Such an outpouring of appreciation…you’d think it was a funeral looking at the off-lookers.
Such a shame so many people walk around blindly without even taking a double look at the genius that's going on around them. I personally would have loved to have seen this
I think the same way! Sadly they don't realize the art and the genius right in front of them! What a performance!
I hate to generalize people but adults are like this in general. They are always so "busy" and stressed out. That's why kids are amazing; they would actually listen to this master and enjoy it
I come back and watch this at least once a week
I watched about 15 times already... lol..
Everytime I get a notification of someone commenting on this I watch it again
What a great talent! What a joyful music! The absolutely 🚀best player I ever heard!😳 Boah!!!! 🤩🎹 Thank you so much! 🎶🙏🙏🙏
Henri your skills in playing boogie woogie is unbelievable! I enjoyed your playing a lot. Thank you very much, God bless you ! Keep cheering up the world with your fantastic BOOGIE WOOGIE!
My God I can't get enough of him. That Energy!!! This is the 3rd time in a row, and I'm going for more. And nobody's dancing. Bull Shit loosen Up people. 💖🙃💖🌈
What a gift! To be able to sit at the piano and let your fingers run amok!
Fucking greatness… 95% of the clowns walking around didn’t even realize the free concert they just received from a master
Man, that almost made me stand up and dance in my room. Put a smile on my face tell you that. 🙂👏
One of the best, if not the best!
I love how the broken strings are kind of creating their own syncopate drumming.
Can't understand why everyone isn't dancing 3 mins into this
🔥 ❤ 🎶 ❤ 🔥
"i see you guys aren't ready for this kind of stuff, but your kids will love it"
Yes!!! Yes!!! You are right! 😀
Insanely talented musician. That would stop me right in my tracks....
I used to play the piano, but my god this is sick, what a hidden talent
Totally amazing and how people can ignore his talent I am lost!
Where the hell do you learn how to play like that ?!! This is beyond astonishing.
That piano wanted a cigarette after that performance!
You broke the internet with that one 😂
