How are these videos don't get millions of views is beyond me? Fantastic camera work and Sonya's interpretation of the song is spot on. Well done guys!
Sonya Belousova is a professional composer and pianist, you can find more info about her on wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonya_Belousova Sonya writes and produces every arrangement.
All my fellow employees thought I had flipped my lid when they saw me with my ear buds on, standing, and wildly clapping in front of my computer after having listened to your outstanding interpretation of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Both you and Tom are the NEW Dynamic Duo. Keep up the great work!
I like how you don't do what most RUclipsrs do and make an as close as possible rendition. You appropriate the song to make it fit better on the piano.
I love the whole performance including the costume design! Freddie's red and golden stripes on silky white, bright yellow color (which is shown on her shoes), and a jacket. Bravo!
Shout out to Tom Grey for his great direction to all the vids on this channel. The videos are as aesthetically pleasing to watch as they are to listen to.
Amazing work! I have never heard an arrangement so well crafted and well performed as this one. You guys put in the work and the results are astounding! Keep it up!
This song is the reason my whole class knows the lyrics, word by word. My two friends and I both sing it at lunch and occasionally at recess. Sometimes, we go the extra step to text each other line by line. It's amazing to hear it from a talented pianist.
I loved everything about this! Speechless! What a compliment to Freddie Mercury & Queen. Surely, Freddie would appreciate her classical skills and perfectly placed passionate nuances. The piano color is for the pressing of the limited album vinyl coloring. Her costume is the memory of the things Freddie liked to wear and the yellow heels, his favorite color. I had goosebumps and tears! W O W ! Thanks for sharing Bobbi
Most poeple just hear a song and try to play exactly what they hear but Sonya transforms the piece to suit the piano. That takes more talent and makes it waaay more interesting to listen to.
So awesome that I loved to listen Bohemian Rhapsody in piano played in an amazing way like Miss Sonya Belousova, and I singed along with the rhythm, too!
TOP !! I have played the piano since I was 5, I used to play a lot of Chopin, Liszt and some Rachma so I can tell how talented she is. She is smart enough to play the most famous pieces and she is beautiful ! Became one of my favorite pianist. I can imagine her playing the second concerto of Rachma
Fantastic and well worth the wait. You are truly a genius and what a brave and brilliant choice of a first song, so glad I backed you guys , first campaign I've ever backed and I have no regrets!
Very well done!! Great homage to Freddie with the cloths he was a very talented man and is greatly missed. The only thing that would make this better would be for Freddie to sing along. Once again great work.
Although I ofcourse know that this is a piece of Freddy Mercury, seeing this video I couldn't help myself thinking of a piece of George Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue. Not only because of the blue piano, it's also the way of playing it in this video.. Sonya, please continue with these video's... I just love it. :)
I love your interpretation and your arrangement. Well articulated and excellent performance. Such a beautiful woman and what an outstanding talent. Flabbergasted.
Oh my god. This is the best performance on the entire internet. Possibly ever played. So nice, smoothly played. Thanks! (I not going to bother playing the piano anymore haha).
Not piano, I'm a very amateur guitarist and bassist. By that I mean I own a cheapo guitar and bass and I look up video game tabs and learn simple tunes like that. This stuff is absolutely inspiring though, I love musical youtubers, I always get that "I'm gonna go play my guitar" feeling, then I realise I'm nowhere near as good as them and put the guitar back.
...stunned into silence... I've been playing piano for twelve years, and now I suddenly feel like a beginner again...absolutely incredible...brilliantastic...words cannot describe this! Do you give piano lessons?
I love the re-arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody by all means!! Something doesn't add up though. That piano is a 4'11 and sounds like a 7' - 9' grand, what gives?
+PlayerPiano I'm sure you have your own people but we should collaborate sometime with some orchestra. Have your people contact my people. lol ....No But seriously....
+PlayerPiano I was actually singing the song along with the music, I got lost a few times tho. I made my own set off this video, It sounds different in my version, I may start recording stuff like this, but im more of a gamer. Maybe ill have your music playing in the back round, If your ok with that. But could you try and find some music to play from minecraft like the main theme at the Menu screen. Its pretty easy. No need to if you don't want, either way, You awesome!!!
Very good ear, and close on length. It's recorded on a Bosendorfer 225, 74" long, at Firehouse Studio. That piano is far better than the one used in the video shot. ;)
This is superb! I'm always a little bit worried that the piano arrangements might turn too simple in this project, but obviously it's not the case. I love those little Russian contemporary touches that Sonya adds. Those subtle flashes of Rachmaninoff-ness and Szymanowski-ness are so beautiful!
How are these videos don't get millions of views is beyond me? Fantastic camera work and Sonya's interpretation of the song is spot on. Well done guys!
Can't believe this is the first time I've come across Sonya Belousova, what an incredible pianist! Does she also write these arrangements?
Agreed
Hi there Lucas, I love your work ^.^
Idk maybe she finds a version of the song and modifies it to sound better idk just my thought
Sonya has some mad credentials. From what I've seen, it seems she listens to songs and makes up compositions by ear.
Sonya Belousova is a professional composer and pianist, you can find more info about her on wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonya_Belousova Sonya writes and produces every arrangement.
Sonya plays with such a passion, it never ceases to amaze! Nearly sent the original song running for its money!
The arrangement and the cinematography in this are incredible... I wish I could do something like that!
Honestly, it's amazing. I really do like your arrangement. It's terrifically imaginative.
Luke your version is great too..
Thanks, A J447 but I think Sonya's is much more interesting.
it is
All my fellow employees thought I had flipped my lid when they saw me with my ear buds on, standing, and wildly clapping in front of my computer after having listened to your outstanding interpretation of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Both you and Tom are the NEW Dynamic Duo. Keep up the great work!
Raymond McKee hahahaha! Huzzah!
I like how you don't do what most RUclipsrs do and make an as close as possible rendition. You appropriate the song to make it fit better on the piano.
***** :-)
Kayle Lang Well, now it’s what most of RUclipsrs are playing. 4 years later...
Because she is an actual composer
No doubt she’s a complete master. What do you mean better fit on piano though? The song was made on a piano.
Sonya you the most talented person I've ever seen
Sonya Belousova is so elegant to watch. She has wonderful technique and makes it look easy!
I love the whole performance including the costume design! Freddie's red and golden stripes on silky white, bright yellow color (which is shown on her shoes), and a jacket. Bravo!
Oh wow beautiful!!! And nice "freddie mercury" dress!!!
Pierre-Michel Belzile Right!? That dress is awesome
this is perfect!!!
Lovely mini skirt also
Shout out to Tom Grey for his great direction to all the vids on this channel. The videos are as aesthetically pleasing to watch as they are to listen to.
No drunken night of karaoke with your friends is complete until Bohemian Rhapsody is sung
Christopher Willis Hahaha! I totally agree with that. Though it's a little bit old.
I wasn't sure if she was going to nail it, but she NAILED IT! Good job!
Amazing work! I have never heard an arrangement so well crafted and well performed as this one. You guys put in the work and the results are astounding! Keep it up!
washburnwolf Thanks for watching!

Great production! The camera work was right on!
The amount of emotion in that performance... Unbelievable
The most beautiful song ever written.
Most poeple just hear a song and try to play exactly what they hear but Sonya transforms the piece to suit the piano. That takes more talent and makes it waaay more interesting to listen to.
Shari Barboza I agree.
The costume was a nice touch. The piano playing is absolutely beautiful, a wonderfully unique take on this timeless classic.
The best bohemian rhapsody i've heard so far! Inspire me a lot! Wish can be as great as her!
have you seen jarrod radnichs arrangement? its quite different but still amazing. personally, i find it even a little better.
..some people really has talent.. real talent like she has...GREAT PLAYING!!!..
absolutely incredible cover of such a beautiful song played on an absolutely stunning piano.
this is so underrated
This is one of these songs, where the music gets better and better, the more often you listen to it! (proud to be a backer!)
nedted Huzzah!
she is so talented, she makes me cry
Have no word to describe this kind of beauty. It’s soooooo, I don’t know what to say.
this is so beautiful, i teared up
As a fellow pianist, I say bravo! One of my favorite songs played beautifully without error. You are truly talented :)
So awesome that I loved to listen Bohemian Rhapsody in piano played in an amazing way like Miss Sonya Belousova, and I singed along with the rhythm, too!
my question is HOW THE HELL IS SHE SO DAMN GOOD?!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonya_Belousova ;-)
WISE SNIPER it's called practise.
Milo The Cat She is actually a child prodigy.
Jared Wullschleger can't be a "child prodigy" if she is an adult
Milo The Cat it's an old saying you get to Carnegie Hall by practice practice practice
this is the 5th video that has brought me to tears you are amazing sonya
The technic of recording use in this video, make this song...... so F***ing great.
I'm really emotional today. It's the third time in an hour I cry to a song.
Oh my. My all time favorite rock song, beautifully done. I'm still having goosebumps.
LOVE this! It's like if Debussy had written Bohemian Rhapsody. Definitely subscribing!
Shane Killian i like how you think Debussy is writing this...it really does give off that Debussy feeling to it :)
+Shane Killian As soon as I read this, I felt like it was completely obvious!
A lovely performance.
These videos are absolutely my favorites lately
Don’t why I’m 😢 right now! Just beautiful! Awesome!
very nice arrangement. I belive, Freddy smiles at this, because it uses a lot of styles to play one masterpiece of music on piano. well done sonya!
I have missed this channel. I wish there would be more.
Wow so Good arrangement, Sonya you are phenomenaly fantastic piano player and Tom is great operator!!
Thank you guys for emotions!
I hate to be that guy, but her beauty and talent is so mesmeric. I could listen to her play for hours.
TOP !! I have played the piano since I was 5, I used to play a lot of Chopin, Liszt and some Rachma so I can tell how talented she is. She is smart enough to play the most famous pieces and she is beautiful ! Became one of my favorite pianist. I can imagine her playing the second concerto of Rachma
Brings a tear to my eye. Some songs are just timeless. Thank you!
Fantastic and well worth the wait. You are truly a genius and what a brave and brilliant choice of a first song, so glad I backed you guys , first campaign I've ever backed and I have no regrets!
141096me Huzzah! We have some really cool stuff coming up. Plus the live stream for our Indiegogo supporters....more on that soon.
Love the arrangement, it has almost a Gershwin Bohemian in Blue feel to it!
Oh my... that’s just....´Don’t have breath anymore... that’s gorgeous !! Congratulations from a little French !
прекрасно играете на пианино
Just gets better and better!
Please do a video of all the collections of pianos you guys built all these time that would be epic to compile all of them !
Very well done!! Great homage to Freddie with the cloths he was a very talented man and is greatly missed. The only thing that would make this better would be for Freddie to sing along. Once again great work.
I like this version of playing. Very talented played beautifully 👍
Amazing, so glad I discovered this channel on accident.
Also, I recognise that shade of blue anywhere.
DJ Films ;-)
You have made me cry... thank you
Although I ofcourse know that this is a piece of Freddy Mercury, seeing this video I couldn't help myself thinking of a piece of George Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue. Not only because of the blue piano, it's also the way of playing it in this video..
Sonya, please continue with these video's... I just love it. :)
+Marcel Roeffen Yeah, there were a lot of rich jazz chords in the first/ballad section - which I absolutely loved!
Love it! Just the thing to come home to after a long boring day at work.
A very beautiful version of that song!
So great. It is a wonderful interpretation of Bohemian Rhapsody.
This is so awesome and also beautiful arrangement!
Also, I really like the passion of Sonya when she's playing it :)
I was captivated. That was masterful
ZOMG! Loved this arrangement so much! An amazing job as always to the both of you!
I love your interpretation and your arrangement. Well articulated and excellent performance. Such a beautiful woman and what an outstanding talent.
Flabbergasted.
I love this channel, it truly pushed me into playing again after a 4 year break :)
+Yannis15xproduction Wonderful!
This was truly beautiful and skillfully done.
Wish this channel continued making more of these videos.
I love this interpretation of the piece. Truly a master pianist
One word... wauw :-D A song I can play a little on the Piano, but not in a land slide as good as this... Great work Sonya!! -x-....
Oh my god. This is the best performance on the entire internet. Possibly ever played. So nice, smoothly played. Thanks! (I not going to bother playing the piano anymore haha).
blahmeh242 Hahaha....keep playing :-)
Im so glad i backed your kickstater. Super Arrangement and lovely video production and location. Good luck for the future!
Well, excuse me but this was oddly enjoyable, despite the chaotic arrangements such piano ones are. I can finally appreciate the beauty.
You guys never fail to amaze me. This is utterly fantastic!
i agree. absolutely incredible. do you play?
Not piano, I'm a very amateur guitarist and bassist. By that I mean I own a cheapo guitar and bass and I look up video game tabs and learn simple tunes like that. This stuff is absolutely inspiring though, I love musical youtubers, I always get that "I'm gonna go play my guitar" feeling, then I realise I'm nowhere near as good as them and put the guitar back.
Mike Cunningham :-)
This was excellent. I love this song, and your rendition of it was beautiful. Thank you for this
love this interpretation of a classic
love the outfit, freddie mercury's style
Great performance.....great video. Awesome!
just beautiful, this is about as good as a cover gets
That was most excellent! Thank you for that!
So beautiful. You really capture emotion of the words in your interpretation.
...stunned into silence...
I've been playing piano for twelve years, and now I suddenly feel like a beginner again...absolutely incredible...brilliantastic...words cannot describe this!
Do you give piano lessons?
AMAZING just amazing
FANTASTIC i just love the dress was that freddie inspired
Love the blue piano!
I love the re-arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody by all means!! Something doesn't add up though. That piano is a 4'11 and sounds like a 7' - 9' grand, what gives?
+ADENS SKY We do a sound mix on the video :-)

TARDIS blue. It’s bigger on the inside!
amazing cover! it's like you master the piano! it seems like you can play any pieces you want to without even thinking about it
A Vegas quality performance, keep up the impressive work.
"FORGET THE BOTTLE - LET YOUR CHAOS EXPLODE." Except Yennefer is Sonya and the chaos is Sonya playing the piano. BRO NO WONDER YOU GOT THE JOB.
Well done! I was scrolling through your videos and I had no idea you did this. Let's just say I was pleasantly surprised.
Just amazing! Really well done!!! Thank you!!
What a piece I love it
Wow, this just made my day. I had a stupid grin on my face the whole time. Beautiful playing ^~^
WOW The piano is stunning!! Nice filming location and the arrangement was pure awesomeness :)
Mighty Wanitprapha Yes, those were some pretty insane directing skills.
This is superb! I'm always a little bit worried that the piano arrangements might turn too simple in this project, but obviously it's not the case. I love those little Russian contemporary touches that Sonya adds. Those subtle flashes of Rachmaninoff-ness and Szymanowski-ness are so beautiful!
Alex CHAN I know. They are beautiful.
stunningly beautiful
Got shivers down my spine while listening to your perfect cover, especially during the Scaramouche part =)
Good job guys! Another video well done! So glad I donated too ya's. Keep up the good work!
Honestly- this is awesome.
Thank you for that beautiful music.
Beautiful arrangement!
