I made a mod for Skyrim which allows you to put a piano in your house, and I have the player character sit down and play this. Thank you so much, this is amazing!
All this great music... I swear, the only thing that gets me out of bed every morning is this. I am so grateful there are people like you, and many others, that can give many of us such great joy from simply playing the piano. Great work on the piece!
This is by far the best Skyrim piano playback I've heard on RUclips. You nailed the song spot on. It will be my goal to eventually play this song, I've accepted the fact that it may take years before I get to this point. I tip my hat off to you my friend, you are very talented.
Hey man. I've been inspired by you to play the piano a bit more, and honestly, you've helped me so much. I've practised more, both grade work and casual pieces and passed my last 3 grades combined faster than my first one. What I need to tell you is that someone's stolen your work. The channel is called Piano Freedom and he's claiming that it's his. This has really made me angry because not only was he taking credit for such a beautifully composed piece, but because he's done it before to other pianists. To end my rant on a positive note, I'd like to say again that you are a massive inspiration to me and to never stop! Thanks :)
Thanks so much for your kind words, it means alot, I wish you all the best with your piano studies. Regarding that copycat pianist, I didn't know about that so thanks for telling me, unfortunately I can't do anything about it as I don't own the copyrights, he is just trying to look good and cheat subscribers and views, some people are this way inclined unfortunately, good luck to them.
Before I even press start to leave the title screen, I usually wait for this song to start playing! The sound track for Skyrim is 100% awesome, and most definitely worth the hard work and dedication that was put into it!
of course. I think the Skyrim soundtrack on the whole is outstanding, hence why I am doing a Skyrim piano suite next with 7 different tracks of the soundtrack.
divenire you mean? yes I recorded that a while ago, its on my channel, as well as primavera actually. It sounds similar to a passage in divenire yes I will admit.
Just keep in mind that not everyone can be Lee Shing Tsung (Tsung Tsung) or Shuan Hern Lee and there are people who've built their skills from much dedication and time. If you haven't seen the kids I've just mentioned, you should because it's a way to crush your dreams so you can re-evaluate yourself and be realistic so you don't quit half way. They're prodigies that will make you want to throw a hissy fit... I know it made me feel like destroying my piano. Patience and practice will get you to perform decently over time. It's been a year since I've learned to read notes and just been able to complete (very choppily after 3 months) "Vogel Im Kafig" played by tehishter on youtube. Some people learn faster than others and as far as I know, someone with 4 years of experience can learn that piece in less than a week -_-. Just keep at it, though the songs you want to play may or may not sound as you wished it would be, it will be an accomplishment that will make you feel great for learning it when you've gone past even a line. For me, it felt great to go through the first page of any song. Songs I've learned to play somewhat smoothly are "To Zanarkand", and "River flows in you". Songs I've gone past the first page but never finished are "The Entertainer", "Melodies of Life", "Fur Elise", "Moonlight Sonata 1st mvt". If you can't get past the first line of any of those songs after 2 weeks alone... you'll probably need a teacher if you want to continue to play piano. Be persistent and Good Luck.
there are many reasons I could pick up on, but unless you are a pianist yourself its much harder to see why some videos on youtube are rated so highly/have so many views, with the Taioo version, its a very simple version and nothing technical or impressive about it, but I would not realise that unless I have had 15 years experience of playing piano and knowing how it all works and how he does it, its like most skills in life I guess, sound wise can be subjective, but to me a small child can play
this is my own piano arrangement, I learnt it by ear from listening to the original piece by Jeremy Soul, full credit as ever goes to the composer of the original, I just have lots of amazing fun arranging the music and performing it :)
+TheIceDragon86 'better' is subjective, he's very good technically, but playing piano well is not just about that, maybe he hears something in this performance he does not in Kyle's. The are far greater pianists than either of us probably, but don't use youtube.
+Mark Fowler But of course, but i understood his comment as being from a technical standpoint, in which Kyle's arrangement is far superior to this one. I did not say that he can not enjoy this arrangement more, I was speaking strictly from a technical point of view, which this arrangement is not. I was also wondering how long you've been playing piano for and if you've studied at a conservator? Also do you simplify your arrangements intentionally?
+TheIceDragon86 maybe you should look at the sheets to my arrangement and tell me it's simplified. You shouldn't be concerned with the difficulty of music or how fancy it may look anyway, as many pieces are far easier than they look, if you add too much to a piece on piano it's normally because they're trying to prove something or show off. I don't add anymore than I have to, but to call this arrangement simplified is very strange indeed, and perhaps shows your limited knowledge of piano music. No offence intended either.
+I personally love your playing better than Kyles because it's my opinion, I've learned plenty of your covers and I've watched your videos for longer than I have Kyles, love your work man!!!!! Are you going to be posting anymore? You haven't for monthsMark Fowler
no, I have owned several over the years, but due to my picky and 'get bored of things quickly' nature I keep changing them, selling and buying new ones, currently I own yamaha p155 and roland hp507, the one in this video was a yamaha clp470 and I dont have it anymore lol
PunkDaft_13 Not all of them are the same, Arena-Redguard are different, well at least I couldn't hear any similarities, or I haven't listened to them in a while and I don't remember but I don't think they sound too similar.
FENOMENAL. With an F. For friggin'. Seriously. Dude!! The power and epicness that characterizes the theme, married with the sweet tranquility of the piano. Great job. 👍
Funny you mention that music, that was one of the very first scores I used to play by ear on my keyboard many many years ago. Howard shore LOTR composer of course ;-) there are some great themes and beautiful pieces in that soundtrack, perhaps overlooked by many this soundtrack it would seem. I saw willow at the cinema when it was first released :-D
A lot of person played this music but your's is the best.This is something different.Here is the your difference.Thank you for everything Mark ! I hope i can play like you.Maybe one day.
I am a pianist in training and this video really inspired me! It was truley amazing how you transformed this piece by Jeremy Soule into something even better. I love this video and if anyone dislikes this they don't understand that you put so much work into that..its just astonishing. Thank you for this video. :D
This is great! I've been looking for an arrangement that was an actual *piano* arrangement, not just a reproduction of the original soundtrack. And thank you so much for transcribing the sheet music and sharing it. I'm sure my own attempts will pale in comparison to your work, but I will have a lot of fun trying to figure it out. You're an amazing artist...Thank you!
Just for the ones who play the song themselves, there is a little rhythmic difference between what he plays and what the sheet says after the first "chorus", in the video at 1:29 , in the original song it is played as in the sheet but I prefer the way Mark Fowler plays it, just notice the difference and find your way to play

The best skyrim theme cover, i've ever heard. Amazing work !
I agree bout the skyrim cover
Peter pitscmans is better
@Alexander Stangeland yeayea. i justdidnt care to write his name right. you still the point tho
@@liamsmyth7707 this cover is a lot older and today’s standards for piano covers are a lot higher
but it’s still good
@@thefaze1096 tru and it's still a pretty good cover
I used to be be pianist too, but then I took a piano to the knee.
Skyrim joke, do you not play the game?
I used to be a pianist like you than I took a key to the knee

It's so effective how you've changed the voice of the piano. It looks like you're really enjoying while you play. That's good.
All this great music... I swear, the only thing that gets me out of bed every morning is this. I am so grateful there are people like you, and many others, that can give many of us such great joy from simply playing the piano.
Great work on the piece!

Adding the choir layer was pure genius. Totally made the cover even more awesome.
beautifull
Epic.

you've never played the piano, right ?

THAT'S FREAKIN AWESOME, DUDE!! I WAS CRYING WHEN I WATHCED THIS VIDEO, IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!
thats really nice of you, thanks a lot.
Game music an soundtracks from games are underestimated!
of course. I think the Skyrim soundtrack on the whole is outstanding, hence why I am doing a Skyrim piano suite next with 7 different tracks of the soundtrack.
Mark Fowler Thank you for doing just that :)
+Mark Fowler I used to be a Piano player like you but then I took an arrow to the knee.
do you have a simplified version of this on music sheets? i want to play this at my piano recital
its all over google and youtube.. i could help you if you know how to play from a music making program
not a pickup line, just trying to help

omg. this is THE MOST beautiful rendition ive EVER heard for the keys. Can you make a tutorial? So gorgeous. Thank you for making this video.
divenire you mean? yes I recorded that a while ago, its on my channel, as well as primavera actually. It sounds similar to a passage in divenire yes I will admit.

Awesome work bro, it is shit like this that makes me wanna stop playing video games and learn a badass piano skill, even though I can play drums well.
this would definitely be worth if you start and keep playing piano^^
Just keep in mind that not everyone can be Lee Shing Tsung (Tsung Tsung) or Shuan Hern Lee and there are people who've built their skills from much dedication and time.

I'm sorry but its true.. v.v
David Schroeder so do you think I would dislike this?
the way you use the tecnology really adds to this epic, it rocks man
In my honest opinion, this is the best version on youtube.
you can do league of legends entry music in piano
Nah, he'll do Smite though.

Swagneto Well the 3D modeled ones... Derp!
Can play this pretty well now. Such an empowering piece to play, hitting those keys hard and with the driving rhythm. Thanks for the arrangement! :)
Probably struggle most at the transition around 2:32, where it goes into the staccato.
FENOMENAL. With an F. For friggin'. Seriously. Dude!! The power and epicness that characterizes the theme, married with the sweet tranquility of the piano. Great job. 👍
After 10 years this remain my favourite piano cover!
best piano cover of Skyrim I heard so far
Funny you mention that music, that was one of the very first scores I used to play by ear on my keyboard many many years ago. Howard shore LOTR composer of course ;-) there are some great themes and beautiful pieces in that soundtrack, perhaps overlooked by many this soundtrack it would seem. I saw willow at the cinema when it was first released :-D
Great arrangement! I play it daily! Fun!/challenging! Thanks for arranging it for piano! God bless!
You are a genius. Best cover of any song I've ever heard.
Hands down.
I'm speechless right now... Most epic version of this theme I've ever heard...
Amazing! I really like when an artist can made his own arrange but not lose the music's spirit at all... Congratulations!
This will always be my favourite piece I've ever heard in piano
In this music you have capture the true essence of skyrim.... great job.
That's the absolutely gorgeous Yamaha Clavinova, and it's one hell of an instrument.
Одна з найкращих версій. Дякую.
seriously how can people dislike this piece of art?! what has become of society?! D:
Прекрасно, аж мурашки по коже. Отличная игра!!
You added Morrowind at the beginning! Friggin BRILLIANT!
A lot of person played this music but your's is the best.This is something different.Here is the your difference.Thank you for everything Mark ! I hope i can play like you.Maybe one day.
I play exactly what is written in the score... so I am not sure what you mean, it may look like I play it differently that is all.
I am a pianist in training and this video really inspired me! It was truley amazing how you transformed this piece by Jeremy Soule into something even better. I love this video and if anyone dislikes this they don't understand that you put so much work into that..its just astonishing. Thank you for this video. :D
Every single individual song you do is amazing
my god this gets better and better each time i listen to it
This has to be the best one. Absolutely amazing.
have you read the description? you put the midi into it....
(Hasn't played skyrim in ages)
*watches video*
Oh God, the nostalgia is overwhelming! :3
Must play it again!
This is great! I've been looking for an arrangement that was an actual *piano* arrangement, not just a reproduction of the original soundtrack. And thank you so much for transcribing the sheet music and sharing it. I'm sure my own attempts will pale in comparison to your work, but I will have a lot of fun trying to figure it out. You're an amazing artist...Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful. I'd be proud to be half as good as Mark is.
You are like clockworks.
Thumbs-up for your dedication and work, you deserve the best.
amazing me and my friend both love this song keep up the good work
This is excellent, whats even better is that you arranged it yourself. Superb job :).
You know, Mark, you did the best Dragonborn cover uploaded on youtube ever. Great job man, you're more than awesome!
After watching this....and after ive stopped playin piano for 2yrs now...i decided for this to be my comeback ^-^
