Hi!
I played this beautiful song from Anastasia many years ago, but the performance was a bit poor and the audio & video quality were horrible ( • Video ). Someone asked me to play this piece, and since it's december I thought it was the perfect time to relearn it and re-record it hehe
Playing this piece properly is much harder than it may look, I think I've played it much better this time but it's not perfect at all 😅 Sheet music had many pages so I recorded it in 3 separated videos that I put together (btw I'm sorry about sometimes blocking the camera view with my arm, I should have changed the camera angle a bit ;O)
🎼 I'm playing an official arrangement, its digital version is now available to purchase in musicnotes!: www.musicnotes...
I hope you like it and Merry Christmas! 💙

I'm Russian so this really hits deep and means alot to me that someone can play this masterpiece .
Ow thank you so much!
B M-Y its from a russian movie hence his comment
The real Anastasia's story is so sad. She and her sisters were the last princesses of Russia 💔
@B M-Y Anastasia Romanov had a whole legend behind her about how she escaped the communists of the Russian Revolution, which is the premise of the movie. Sadly we discovered her remains not too long ago which confirmed she was killed with the rest of the Romanovs.
song of my childhood T-T... beautiful melody
Me too
i remember this song when i was a little girl about 7 or 6 i fell in love with this song
Dancing bears, painted wings
Things I almost remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
Far away, long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
Far away, long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Things it yearns to remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
You are seriously the best, every note coming from your piano touched me in a very nostalgic and melancholic way (well, the song helps!). It is so intense. The ending is so perfect. Well done! Feliz Natal/Navidad :)
Aw, thank you so much Hugo ;w; Really appreciate it! It's a really intense but beautiful song, it's hard to find the right balance between the delicate side and the powerful side while playing it, I'm glad you've liked it!
When I am stressed beyond belief, I put on my beat headphones and just close my eyes and listen to this on full blast! Your playing is absolutely beautiful and I get so submerged in this amazing song! It always brings me back to a moment of sanity amidst all the chaos! You play so beautifully, thank you!
Aw thank you so much ;_; I'm so glad you like it and I'm so glad it helps you relax in some way, knowing it makes me feel really fullfilled!
Moisés Nieto as it should! You are very talented! I always wished I could have learned to play the piano! Buuuuut I am content hearing other people do it too! Again Gracias for such wonderful music!

Fantastic cover. Brings me back to my childhood in Iran.. watching the film on repeat and trying playing this melody (a very very simplified version) on piano at my grandma's.
Thanks! It's such a beautiful melody indeed ;_;
omg i have the vhs of this movie from my childhood! Good memories! Sounds nice on piano good work!
I have the VHS too, I loved the film! Thank you so much Shadow!
Same .
Как же это великолепно! Этот звук,ммм. Плавное переливание нот в одну, а затем в другую. Песни такого звучания заставляют задуматься и погрузиться в себя.Браво, отличное сыграно 👍❤️
Thank you so much!!
Very heartbreaking and beautiful 😭 and super masterful… please never stop touching the piano keys
This is now my favorite piece by you, it’s so magical and glorious. Your a blessing to this world and don’t ever forget it.
Wow thank you so much Amity!! O_O
@@MoisesNieto your so welcome!
Aww this is so lovely and gorgeous. The piano accompaniment really adds a lot of magic to the main melody. Vocal cover of this next? :P (Sorry, just miss your soothing voice gahaha xD). Happy holidays and a wonderful new year to come, filled with more of your music!
Thank you Yuxi!! The fact that you miss my voice makes me blush haha, glad you like my vocal covers
Essa música é muito profunda e nos faz mergulhar no mundo de Anastasia
Beautiful as always, Moises! Thank you ever so much for covering this song. One of my favourites as a kid; I'd watch it together with my mum.
Thanks to you Kain
Wow. Beautiful song, melody everything.
Thanks! Yeah it's a wonderful song, it never gets old!
I looooved this movie and this song when I was a kid 🥰 beautifully played!
Thank you so much!!
Since I am Russian I was very pleased to watch the cartoon "Anastasia". In the West, little is being filmed about Russia. Oddly enough, for the most part, foreigners perform songs from this cartoon. This is very nice.😘😘
Some how this gives my shivers and I start to cry it's just to beautiful
Aw ;w; It's such a beautiful song, thanks for your comment!
Moisés Nieto - HollowRiku you're welcome and Thanks for answering I really like your channel
You are truly amazing! I showed it to my piano teacher and she looooved it too!
Aww thank you so much!!
Спасибо
I finally saw this movie since my sister took the time to show it to me and I was quite impressed with the movie's animation and music this song in particular was a standout and the way you play it here is sublime it is nice to hear you played it so well
Thank you so much!! It's such an amazing movie indeed, I should rewatch it!
Soooo Beautiful 👏 Bravo
This is one of my most favorite! You play so gracefully 🎯
Thank you!!
¡Asombroso! 👏👏👏👏 Mi cabeza sigue intentando descifrar cómo tu mano derecha tocaba la melodía y el acompañamiento. Yo soy incapaz de hacer eso 😥 Me ha encantado, y encima Anastasia que le tengo un cariño 😍 ¡Bravo! 👏👏👏👏
Muchísimas gracias Sara :D Es la mayor dificultad de esta canción sin duda, he hecho lo posible por destacar la melodía por encima del acompañamiento, pero estoy seguro de que en muchas partes se podría mejorar!
This is a beautiful cover. I was singing along and was picturing Anastasia dancing in Circles with the paintings coming alive. ❤ You are one talented pianist. ☺
Aw Thanks for your beautiful comment Jos, glad you've liked it!
This song is so amazing it makes me cry
Excellent!! Bravo!!
Thank you!!

Aw ;; Thanks to you for watching it and commenting!
This is excellent.
Thank you KAt!!
I really enjoyed this arrangement of it, but it seems that the link for the music has been removed. Would you by any chance know the person who arranged this version? :)
@@potatoe494 Thank you very much! I really appreciate it :)
@@MrBlerg no problem! :>
Do you have sheets??I need them for september.
Yep, the only link I have is the one shown in the description box of the video, the image quality is quite bad but it's readable!
Amazing job wow!!! I'm in awe!!!
Thank you so much!!
I really like how you play the piano and this is a beautiful song too, every time i hear you play i get shivers of how good it sounds!
too bad the sheet is not avalieble anymore
Thanks ana!! I could send you the sheets via e-mail, I found a copy of it but the image quality is quite bad :c
A song with a touch of mystery, I love it, beautiful play, happy holidays!!
Thanks
Do you still have the sheet music? Thanks!
I have a low-res version of it, feel free to send me an e-mail! (Hollowriku @ gmail.com)
@@MoisesNieto awesome. thanks moises!
Looks like the scribd link was taken down. Does anyone know where I could find this sheet music? I have no problem paying, just want to find the right version!
Ow ;_; I would pay for it too, the arr. is official but I think it's like impossible to buy these days! An user called potatoe replied to Mr. Blerg's comment with a scan of the sheets: docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxteW5vdGVzZm9ycGlhbm98Z3g6MmRiMTU3MGU3ZTI4M2EwZQ
this is GORGEOUS
Thanks percy!!
Awesome song. Stunning 😍
Sooooo beautiful
Thanks!
You are so talented
Thank you!
I may be dumb, but can you tell me where to find the sheet notes? I am Russian, and because of this there may be mistakes in the sentence😅 Answer me please🙃
Sheet music belongs to the official Anastasia sheet music book, it can also be bought digitally here!: www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/mtd.asp?ppn=MN0157718
Whats the model of the piano? And also, 🤩 WOW this cover is amazing
Thank you Diego 😄 It's a Kawai GL10 baby grand piano!
Moisés Nieto Thanks!! And keep up the amazing work!!☺️
Wow
Its so beautiful
Thanks! c:
Simplemente linda :)
Gracias! c:
Beautiful cover!
Thank you!!
Is the actual key signature in C# minor? It sounded funny it started as D Major to C minor then E major with the ending chord as C# minor. What a beautiful piece and very well played! It sounds super close to Chim Chimney Chimree from Mary Poppins that's in C minor
Thank you! Yeah I think it starts in B minor and goes to C minor and then ends in C# minor c: It's such a classic, so glad you've liked this version!
This cover is awesome !
Thank you!!
The link for the sheet doesn’t work 😭😭😭
Yeah sorry :c I can send it to you via e-mail!
Moisés Nieto thank you so much my email is atoumanidi@gmail.com
Have a lovely Christmad ahead of you Riku! :)
Thank you so much, Merry Christmas! c:
Amazing 👏🏼
Thank you Julio!
Amazing piano I love it :)
Thank you!!
Me encantaaa! Y feliz Navidad guapu 💓
Aa para guapísimo tú, feliz navidad Elliot, disfruta las vacaciones
HollowRiku - Moisés Nieto Igualmente! ♡
Wow, it's so awesome. I love your work :"D
Thanks Anaru!
Deleite
Where do I get the sheets? Thank you!
I found them somewhere in the net, I can try and send it to you if you give me an e-mail (or send me one, mine is hollowriku@gmail.com )
Elena Smirnova in africa
Amazing! Do you know or there is a free sheet music of this?
Thanks! The sheet music for this is somewhere in the internet, I think I recently found it on Scribd!
the link to sheet music is broken :c
Yeah the link died T_T I've updated it with a different link, that's the arr. I played but it's on scribd though, I'm not sure if it can be downloaded with a free account!
Wow nice
Thank you!
Tutorial please 🥺🥺🥺🥺🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I don't do tutorials I'm sorry ;_;
WHERE DO I GET THE SHEETS PLS ❤️
The link is not working anymore ;; Send me an e-mail to hollowriku @ gmail.com and I'll send it to you (the picture quality is bad but it's readable!)
Can I also email to get sheets please? ❤️
Que hermoso
Gracias!!
Lovely❤
Thank you!
Simply amazing!
I would love listening to this song with you singing it (just like the "Wherever You Are" you made)
Please, consider it xD
Wow really? Thank you so much! My vocal covers are normally not that well received and are more controversial since not everyone likes my voice or the way I sing, the fact that you want me to sing it makes me happy haha~ I don't know if I'll do it but I'll think about it, maybe in the future!
HollowRiku - Moisés Nieto Yay! :D
is this one really hard to learn?
I never know how to answer these questions, it really depends on your level and your perception hehe, I'd say it's not that hard to learn! It has some tricky parts and highlithging the main melody can be a bit complicated, but overall the arrangement is nice and my hands felt comfortable playing it~
Im Speechless 😶😍
Thank you!
Can you please help me learn this it’s so hard doing it by myself can we skype omit or sum pleasee
I can't do that I'm so sorry :c Hopefully you can find a local teacher (or an online teacher) that can help you learn it!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you! c:
I was Russian to watch this while I Rasputin on my shoes :0

Mcofell wow this made me laugh i had to leave my house so i was Russian around telling my parents this lol your pun is better than mine but what ever
