My grand piano is finally returning for my next video! The Nord Grand Stage Piano I have been using since January has served its purpose well and it's time for me to go back to my original instrument again! Moonlamp-chan has served its purpose well and she will be dearly missed...
Animenz talent and skills don't disappear or change whatever kind or brand of piano he plays but what a real joy this news is. It feels like a long journey, but I feel it's also worth it. Congratulations, animenz! Looking forward to your next recording on the Steinway grand! Moonlamp-san will definitely be missed. AND. Anime Movie Soundtrack theme is extended! Yay!!
Fabulous arrangement! That descending bassline in the chorus definitely stands out the most for me. I'm so happy that you arranged one of my favourite song from LiSA! No matter how many time I listen to this song, it always manages to motivate me. I really hope to be able to make a great arrangement for this song myself one day xD.
What a perfect way to send off Stage Piano-kun and Moonlamp-chan with a bang! (though part of me hangs onto the tease in the description of a potential future moonlamp return heh) I think this song really captures the essence of "Catching the Moment" - making the most of your Steinway Grand being delayed and instead turning this unfortunate situation into a different yet equally beautiful alternate setup with the same Animenz touch. I've always loved the energy of this song as a top J-Rock song in my books, and the following Animenz touches especially stood out to me, especially in the context of this farewell encore for Stage Piano-kun and Moonlamp-chan: - 1:19 and 2:37 - The descending bell tones in the LH of the chorus second half really invoke a feeling of marching out triumphantly after a job well done - 1:51 - The softness and elegance of the 3-hand intro to the second verse felt like a poignant bittersweet farewell and even invoked some feels and tears to my eyes It's been quite a ride the past several months! Thank you once again to Stage Piano-kun Moonlamp-chan for your dedicated services, and I look forward to the return of our old friend Steinway Grand :)
I know everyone knows how amazing animenz's arrangements are, but for anyone who ignores the descriptions, you're missing so much and I promise going through the description as you listen will make you enjoy and appreciate the music 10 times more. Just another detail that puts these arrangements above the rest
1:20 The little downladder movements of those left-hand submelodies are so good. The way you phrase every section (as a whole & transitions) still amazes me. P.S. Can't wait for Animenz 2021: The Return of The Steinway!
I know it's probably been said a million times, but I love reading the description in Animenz videos and seeing him explain the stuff he does in the arrangements.
I open RUclips, and what do I see on my recommended? A catch the moment cover! This literally made my entire day! With all its problems, sword art online holds a special place in my heart and I overall enjoyed ordinal scale! I wish this came out just a bit earlier so I could include it in my music project, but I’ll probably share this with my music teacher anyways lol. Thank you so much animenz, and I can’t wait for the grand to come back!!!
@@Animenzzz LiSA is so amazing, I feel bad for people who haven’t heard her! I cannot get over her voice, I would give up so much to see her live one day!
I was quite disturb when I heard a high note that was supposed to be low in the song. 0:08 I practically listen to this song everyday. Unlike the others who drags their finger to produce this 1:45 you did it differently. I've been waiting for this cover for years after I listened to This Game and Unravel cover. TY
My friend, you should never judge music by how the original song sounded like. Try to understand the beauty of music and the creativeness behind each note animenz plays.
You're an inspiration to me and so many others. You're thanking us for watching you through an instrument change, but we're the ones that should be thanking you for continuing to inspire people around the world. Can't wait to hear you play on the Steinway again!
There are many songs from LiSA(especially Kimetsu no Yaiba songs) but still, Catch the Moment is one of my most favorite song from her. I heard this song so many times and crying a lot(Dont ask me why I cried coz I dont know either XD). Left hand walking bassline like 0:54 or 1:20 was really awesome. Thanks for cover this song, I got healed by this cover. I hope I could cover full ver of this song one day. Also, so excited to watch your grand piano again!
Hey Animenz, you should finally set up that patreon page after you get your grand back! You’ve been providing us with the highest quality of piano covers for free for a decade, it’s time for us to support you now!
Congratulations on making 1.8! It has been a lovely 6 months of stage piano music and light performances. Thank you and your assistant(s) so much for the continued creative endeavors ~ With each passing week's piano work that you share, you make our lives more colorful. From 0:26-0:27 and 0:29-0:30 I'm guessing that we'd need to use the left pedal to play the dynamics...
Wow just look at that finger rolling so smoothly . Sometimes it's hard beleive that sir animenz ,he play it like a god , really amazing ,I am always impressed with your art
You’re the one who inspires me to continue piano. Though I’m a bit less advanced than I’m supposed to be, I never gave up cause one day, I want to be like you. I want to play music, I want to make people smile, I want to show everyone how music can be interpreted and how it can be beautiful. You are honestly the best pianist to me, and I really hope that someday; I can become someone like you.
Everytime i play Courage Op in my brain it always end up in the chorus part of Catch the moment and idk why. As always amazing arrangement it hit different compared to other cover i heard.
Wow! The descending left hand progression in the chorus segment caught me off guard! Didn't think it would fit in an upbeat song like this, but it fits like a glove! Amazing arrangement as always and, moonlight-chan will be missed...😭
I used to be a die-hard fan of SAO but I haven't touched the latest SAO novel I bought months ago bcuz of those catchy interesting vids on RUclips. Now you make me fall in love with SAO again! You are truely a legend!
The happiness that I get from hearing that Animenz is getting a new Steinway is like me getting a Steinway for myself. And the Spotify talks too omg T_T We'll miss Moon-chan too though 🥺
This song and SAO op 2 (Innocence) are what introduced me to anipiano and eventually you, so this was very sentimental to me. Thanks for covering it, and you nailed it 👍
Even though your arrangements didn't lose an ounce of quality during the "Nord Grand Stage era", I'm really looking forward to your next videos! I think this setup will leave a bit of nostalgia though haha...
Thank you for the consistent uploads of high quality music animenz! You have been a great inspiration and I'm forever grateful for the music that you blessed us with :)
Theishter also has a pretty good piano cover of this, but I personally prefer this one, but then again, I'm a sucker for Animenz's classical arrangement style. Haha.
@@Animenzzz I was confused with spotify as there's already 2 "verified artist" under your name who have posted some of your 2020 arrangement, and I can tell the audio is taken directly from your videos.
@@Tristan-mv6lc i know man, I had them on my playlist because I didn’t know, until I saw animenz news about Spotify library coming soon, then I decided to remove them all and wait till the official ones, irs really a shame that ppl do that, same happened to RuRu recently, I don’t want to support any of these ppl who take what’s not theirs 😤😤
Oh I really loved how this arrangement reminds me to old Animenz. I'm so so happy for you. Finally you are going to play again with grand piano! I can't wait for next upload. Thankyou so much for your amazing music. We will always be here, no matter how or where you play. And I really will miss the Moon-lamp jajajaja 💗😔
I'm so glad that you got your trusty Steinway back! Great to hear that you sorted that out. It actually does not matter on which piano you play, as you are great nonetheless! Viele Grüße aus Deutschland :)
amazing as always! can clearly hear the difference between your covers and others on youtube. hopefully one day, there will be a anisong cover on a pipe organ xD
Happy for you Animenz! Happy 1.8 Million Subs! Since i play piano on 2019 i always watched your unravel arrangement and other. I wish i can play your unravel some day! and also heart react XD. Thank you also animenz you're the inspiration through my Piano journey, now on my city i play piano church songs! Sometimes when i have time i practice some Anime and J-pop music! I can't wait for your next upload on Steinway Grand Piano! Again Congrats for your 1.8M subs! Have a good day!

I miss your happy hands on Steinway a lot!
it is just like sakuna got all his fingers back
Oh my god!!! I'm so happy for you. Finally you can play with grand piano 🎊🎊🎊🎊💗
Moonlamp-chan will be missed
Excited for the kick off masterpiece next week for the Steinway Grand. 😍
While Animenz is not defined by his Steinway, I simply can't wait to see it return next week!
Did he get his steinway back?
;)
cant wait for its return!
It's time to say goodbye to moon-chan 😢
Nice
Animenz - probably the only person more OP than Kirito
Animenz vs Anos voldigoad…🤣
@@s.bpiano _Finally! A worthy opponent!_
He was playing with yellow eyes
Wish I could dual wield pianos though
@@Animenzzz right hand grand piano, left hand nord keyboard next week? 😏
Animenz, your arrangements never disappoint, amazing job as usual
agreed my non mustache friend
hmmm only 6 likes
I swear,if I go to xxxxhub and you're there,Imma flip.
i concur
Agree. i wish i could be like him one day. I mean, im a pianist too and i love all this guys. Fonzi m, Halcyon, joe jenkins aminemz. They are amazing
Animenz talent and skills don't disappear or change whatever kind or brand of piano he plays but what a real joy this news is. It feels like a long journey, but I feel it's also worth it. Congratulations, animenz! Looking forward to your next recording on the Steinway grand! Moonlamp-san will definitely be missed. AND. Anime Movie Soundtrack theme is extended! Yay!!
Time to collect all the good Anime Movie Soundtracks in my Anime Piano Library!
Love the magic the left thumb brings at 1:20 - 1:30
Always so clean and complex and simple at the same time( makes no sense but I hope you get what I mean) .
I know exactly what you mean and that's literally the most difficult task for every piano arranger! "simple, yet satisfying"
@@Animenzzz by any chance Sir, your work will soon be available on Spotify?? 😭
@@adrianiii3125 it already is! : D or on Amazon Music if you prefer. He released a bit of his songs on there at the start of this year I believe.

SAME XD
;)
How come you’re not verified bro 😮 ?
same, that part was absolute fire🔥🔥🔥 but I loved equally the slow emotional parts too, this is such a fantastic arrangement!!!
This song would serve as a great encore in any LiSA live concerts, because it's simply too motivational
Goodbye Moonlamp-san you will never be forgotten
他のアレンジにはない力強い感じがめっちゃ好きです。ありがとうございます！！

I feel like I'm repeating myself every week but this is another amazing arrangement man! Love that left hand melody part, so delicate
"Another Amazing Arragement" (or short AAA) will be my second name from now on. (Glad you like them all!)
I open RUclips, and what do I see on my recommended? A catch the moment cover! This literally made my entire day!

素晴らしい！ アニメンズさんが、Steinwayで演奏されていないのが残念ですが、電子ピアノでも、すごい迫力のアレンジです。 私事ですが、アニメンズさんのこのピアノを聴き、SAOが懐かしく思い、SAOの映画を見返しました！
Thank u for ur great playing !!!!
Oh look another masterpiece by animenz
Are you a fan of Lisa?
Truly empowering depressed souls with music is a great strength
Hello tsukasa-chan thanks to you I have diabetes
The real question is: Who is NOT a fan of LiSA, hahaha
The energy in her voice is simply amazing, I absolutely love her music.
@@Animenzzz LiSA is so amazing, I feel bad for people who haven’t heard her! I cannot get over her voice, I would give up so much to see her live one day!
I was quite disturb when I heard a high note that was supposed to be low in the song. 0:08 I practically listen to this song everyday. Unlike the others who drags their finger to produce this 1:45 you did it differently. I've been waiting for this cover for years after I listened to This Game and Unravel cover. TY
Today, I learned that "glissando" can also be described as "drags their finger" - movement.
My friend, you should never judge music by how the original song sounded like. Try to understand the beauty of music and the creativeness behind each note animenz plays.
Catch the moments bro
LiSAのCatch the moment 待ってました！！原曲の元気な雰囲気が伝わってきて聴いてて楽しかったです！
そしてムーンランプちゃんがなくなってしまうの寂しいです😂
偶にでいいので、また出てきてくれたら嬉しいです！
Yesss another SAO song by the great Animenz himself. I can already hear Lisa singing and Kirito fighting with him playing in the background!!!
It's amazing!!
ピアノだけとは思えない壮大な響きと素晴らしいアレンジで大好きです！何度も聞きに来ます！新しい映画の主題歌も発表されたらぜひアレンジしてください！！
You're an inspiration to me and so many others. You're thanking us for watching you through an instrument change, but we're the ones that should be thanking you for continuing to inspire people around the world. Can't wait to hear you play on the Steinway again!
I think the lefthand part of 1:20 is way to satisfying, love it
Your pieces feel better than they were before... a matured, strengthened animenz has arrived to dominate the battlefield!
There are many songs from LiSA(especially Kimetsu no Yaiba songs) but still, Catch the Moment is one of my most favorite song from her. I heard this song so many times and crying a lot(Dont ask me why I cried coz I dont know either XD). Left hand walking bassline like 0:54 or 1:20 was really awesome.

ピアノの音色も凄く綺麗だけど
ムーンランプも凄く綺麗🌕✨
God songs by LiSA are just too good. And your arrangements captures its energy so well. Thank you for these masterpieces.
hell yeah. i love your sword art online arrangments man they are absolutely amazing
Hey Animenz, you should finally set up that patreon page after you get your grand back! You’ve been providing us with the highest quality of piano covers for free for a decade, it’s time for us to support you now!
You reuniting with your Steinway is like an anime protagonist reuniting with their legendary sword. Deliriously happy to read this news.
Congratulations on making 1.8!
It has been a lovely 6 months of stage piano music and light performances.
Thank you and your assistant(s) so much for the continued creative endeavors ~

Animenz + LiSa is a killer combination
Omg. 3:43 😢 so beautifully done. Your arrangement has surpassed all expectations as usual. Thank you 😘
This is still not "THERE IS A REASON" but I'll take it.
Also congrats on finally having your Steinway back for next week!
i hope so
THERE IS A REASON pleasse
He promised to add it to his list on one of his livestreams so we can hope for it someday.
I want it tooooooo
Plz :’)
How about THERE IS A REASON but on Steinway?
Yes
There is a reason why I haven't uploaded "there is a reason" yet. (lel)
It is reserved for the Steinway grand piano.
Wow just look at that finger rolling so smoothly . Sometimes it's hard beleive that sir animenz ,he play it like a god , really amazing ,I am always impressed with your art

Both have very similar vibes, I can totally understand your feeling, lol

Lisa : Catch That Moment
Animenz : let see
I see what you did there
Animenz recalls our moments❣
I used to be a die-hard fan of SAO but I haven't touched the latest SAO novel I bought months ago bcuz of those catchy interesting vids on RUclips. Now you make me fall in love with SAO again! You are truely a legend!
You're always have surprising melody , in this video at 1:51 , mannn such a detail melodyy , niceee!!
オーディナルスケールの曲久しぶりにきいたw映画みたくなった
The intro of the song is so good
Left hand is insane! Rapid chord changing and four hand technique at the same time!? Starburst streammmm~
btw, cannot wait for the Steinway!!!
more like ...
*S T A R B U R S T M E L O D Y Y Y Y~~!!!*
Right of the bat and the chills attacked me. That was beautiful
The happiness that I get from hearing that Animenz is getting a new Steinway is like me getting a Steinway for myself.
And the Spotify talks too omg T_T
We'll miss Moon-chan too though 🥺
The best Sword Art Online song by the best anime pianist ❤
Those countermelodies in the left hand during the chorus though! Amazing! It reminded me of the Silhouette arrangement! 😂
Hahaha same! Literally made the same comparison😁
I can only imagine the effort you have put on this !!!!
RESPECT !!
Absolutely Amazing! Can't wait for the Grand Piano to be back!
This song and SAO op 2 (Innocence) are what introduced me to anipiano and eventually you, so this was very sentimental to me. Thanks for covering it, and you nailed it 👍
Any SAO covers really hit me hard man
Can't wait to see Steinway senpai back in action! Thank you for bringing us legendary music from our favorite animes.
I think it's one of the best arrangement you have done for a while I absolutely love it, you are you'll always stay at the top!
Even though your arrangements didn't lose an ounce of quality during the "Nord Grand Stage era", I'm really looking forward to your next videos! I think this setup will leave a bit of nostalgia though haha...
One of my favorite songs. 😍😍 So happy you played it. 💖🥰
サビの左手のメロディー好き。grand pianoでの演奏も楽しみに待ってます。
you are the best player
Thank you for the consistent uploads of high quality music animenz! You have been a great inspiration and I'm forever grateful for the music that you blessed us with :)
FINALLY SOMEBODY MAKES A PIANO COVER OF THIS SONG AFTER YEARS 😭😭😭😭😭
Theishter also has a pretty good piano cover of this, but I personally prefer this one, but then again, I'm a sucker for Animenz's classical arrangement style. Haha.

I was certainly caught in the moment while watching the premier
