You really did it justice. This must have been really tough to arrange. A militaristic march to straight piano. When it calms down halfway through and builds up again is when I think it really flourishes. The epic intro and early march is tough because it's so incredibly orchestrated. Matthew Craig with the skills!
Tremendous. Somehow this captures the power of the theme without the orchestra. I wasn't sure that was possible when I clicked, but this is quite an achievement.
One of my favourite themes, and I just watched The Batman so a lovely surprise seeing this in my RUclips subscriptions when I opened it right after. Amazing work as always. This looked especially hard to perform, your fingers were going so fast at points that the piano might’ve caught fire!
@@MattCraigPiano Basically, the show Thomas And Friends has a character named Henry The Green Engine, and in the first season of the show, in the episode titled The Sad Story Of Henry (titled “Come Out, Henry!” in the US) a sad variant of Henry’s theme plays at the end of the episode, this sad theme is known in the Thomas The Tank Engine fandom as Henry’s Sad Theme, and Henry’s Sad Theme sounds EXTREMELY similar to the Batman 1989 theme (The Sad Story Of Henry came first in 1984). Look up “Henry’s Sad Theme” on RUclips and have a listen, you’ll see that they sound very alike.

Nothing special my guy- I play the piano at a super bougie hotel in Park City Utah . I play whatever the hell I feel like, from themes to classical to jazz, and people seem to like to dig it. 😅
Finally! Someone had the guts to make an epic piano only of the best version of the Batman theme.
Haha thanks! (It was awkward to arrange tbh)
My guy- I play. And I play pretty well. I play movie themes in my one man show...but you literally take it to the next level. You're effing talented
Thanks! What's your one man show?
Excellent 👌
Thank you!
"Holy pianos, Batman! Matt Craig just played an epic cover of our theme!"
Thanks!
@@MattCraigPiano You're welcome!
One of my favourite movies of all time and you nailed the intro :)
thank you! Love your handle, btw
This was by far the best rendition I’ve ever heard of the theme in the piano! I’ve been looking for so long, and you also have the sheets!
Congrats!
Thank you!

Thanks, Adam! I did find it awkward to arrange, which is why it took me years to get around to it, but appreciate the comment

Thanks a third time!

@@MattCraigPianoWould you want to do any of the other scores?
@@TheHalloweenCollectorChannel which scores are you thinking?
@@MattCraigPiano Flowers, and Descent Into Mystery if you want to.
Now do Batdance! 💜
what's batdance?
@@MattCraigPiano what I wrote was mostly just a joke, but I referred to Prince’s classic #1 hit “Batdance” 😁
Love it!! Amazing!! Do you sell any of your sheet music? I’d be very interested in performing many of your arrangements.
Thank you! There's a link to my sheet music in the description
@@MattCraigPiano Thank you!
Henry’s Sad theme
Who's Henry?
