It's actually good. I sometimes like watching painist play like this because it seems live! But sadly most people don't get how hard a piece is without synthesia :(
Honestly if you are experiencing wrist pain playing this piece, or really just anything, there is something wrong with your technique. You need to stop and ask a teacher for help
Lyrics translated to English: Who rides, so late, through night and wind? It is the father with his child. He has the boy well in his arm He holds him safely, he keeps him warm. "My son, why do you hide your face in fear?" "Father, do you not see the Elfking? The Elfking with crown and cape?" "My son, it's a streak of fog." "You dear child, come, go with me! (Very) beautiful games I play with you; many a colourful flower is on the beach, My mother has many a golden robe." "My father, my father, and heareth you not, What the Elfking quietly promises me?" "Be calm, stay calm, my child; Through scrawny leaves the wind is sighing." "Do you, fine boy, want to go with me? My daughters shall wait on you finely; My daughters lead the nightly dance, And rock and dance and sing to bring you in. "My father, my father, and don't you see there The Elfking's daughters in the gloomy place?" "My son, my son, I see it clearly: There shimmer the old willows so grey." "I love you, your beautiful form entices me; And if you're not willing, then I will use force." "My father, my father, he's touching me now! The Elfking has done me harm!" It horrifies the father; he swiftly rides on, He holds the moaning child in his arms, Reaches the farm with great difficulty; In his arms, the child was dead.
This translation is better: Who rides so late through the night and wind? It is the father with his child. He has the boy in his arms; he holds him safely, he keeps him warm. ‘My son, why do you hide your face in fear?’ ‘Father, can you not see the Erlking? The Erlking with his crown and tail?’ ‘My son, it is a streak of mist.’ ‘Sweet child, come with me. I’ll play wonderful games with you. Many a pretty flower grows on the shore; my mother has many a golden robe.’ ‘Father, father, do you not hear what the Erlking softly promises me?’ ‘Calm, be calm, my child: the wind is rustling in the withered leaves.’ ‘Won’t you come with me, my fine lad? My daughters shall wait upon you; my daughters lead the nightly dance, and will rock you, and dance, and sing you to sleep.’ ‘Father, father, can you not see Erlking’s daughters there in the darkness?’ ‘My son, my son, I can see clearly: it is the old grey willows gleaming.’ ‘I love you, your fair form allures me, and if you don’t come willingly, I’ll use force.’ ‘Father, father, now he’s seizing me! The Erlking has hurt me!’ The father shudders, he rides swiftly, he holds the moaning child in his arms; with one last effort he reaches home; the child lay dead in his arms. (Translation by Richard Wigmore First published by Gollancz and reprinted in the Hyperion Schubert Song Edition)
Liszt does such a good job at making the elf king seem so mystical and creepy, the ornamentation when he plays is perfect, not to mention the sheer panic heard from the son
The father and the son rides on the horse. The winter wind drowns out the sound of the horse's hoofs against the cold ground. The winds seem to whisper words to the boy's ear. "Come play with me," the wind whispered. "Come play with me and my children, we have many toys waiting for you." The boy held tighter to the father, "father, did you hear that?" "Hear what?" the father said. "The voices calling to me." "There are no voices." The winds grow stronger, and a silhouette forms. A man wearing a crown. "I am the king of elves, come join me, my beautiful daughters will wait on you." the silhouette whirled around the boy, and shadows begin to form around him, taking the form of beautiful girls, with enchanting smiles, dancing through the air. "My father, did you see that? Do you not see the elf King and her daughters?" The father's eyes widened. He had heard of the stories his mother told him. The stories of the elf King who would lure children into the forest, where they are never to be seen again. "I do not see them, son. Hold on tighter to me if you're scared, son. I'll protect you." the father grasped the reins of the horse tighter, and hastened to find his way back to town. "Boy, you are trying my patience, if you are not willing to come, I'll take you by force!" The boy screamed, and his father saw the town's lights. A gleam of hope flashed in his eyes. "Hold on, son. We're almost there!" The shadows around him circled around the boy. Each of them slowly forming faces and taking on the form of elves. Their cold hands grabbed the boy, with their sharp claws digging into his flesh. The boy let out a scream. "Hold on, son. We're almost there!" The father can feel the warmth of the town, and they were mere footsteps away from the safety of the town. "We made it!" The father exclaimed. Silence. "Son?" the father turned around, and saw his son's body. His face lifeless, with his eyes gouged out. His mouth still wide open. "Son!" the father exclaimed, holding him close to his chest. "I've failed you." the father let out a shriek of his own, wailing. The elf king watched from the forest, holding to boy's soul close to him.

Hey Traum. I absolutely love your videos. U just made my day :) if I’m doing homework I’m listening to your vids, if I’m just doing nothing, I’m listening to your vids. Just all the time. Thank you for uploading this videos. You play pieces, I didn’t knew before. And they inspire me. I’m composing myself and stuff. For example Mephisto Walz inspired me a lot. You played it absolutely amazing. Just wow. Of course Rosseau and kassia are Good As well but I’m a true Traum fan!! You’re just different and that makes you amazing! :)
I was skeptical at first especially because of your hand gestures. But lately your musical choices and your technical abilities made you, with Kassia, my favorite youtuber pianist, you're amazing and you are a good source of motivation to keep training :D
I honestly don't think piano repertoire is easy even without liszt's transcriptions. The concertos from other composers themselves are difficult. You also have etudes from chopin already. (I got the joke, but really it isn't that easy.)
@@renascitur7051 I know, just wanted to make a joke, but piano is the instrument with the largest repertoire, that also means that there are a lot of difficult pieces, like Rachmaninoff concertos, chopin etudes and ballades, Beethoven sonatas, etc. But I was just talking about this piece, specifically
I learned this song for singing when I was 15. Took a year to even get the basics of the 4 voices downpacked. But to get it perfect, I litterally spent 3 years studying it (my singing teacher even made me write a 9000 word essay on it when I was 16). Such a terrifying song when you study in depth into it.
YES! This is one of my favorite Schubert pieces! I was waiting for when you would post the Liszt arrangement. You just made my day! Keep up the amazing work!
Holy Moly! It´s such an intense piece and awesome interpretation! I think I would have preferred the synthesia especially for this piece since it would have brought the craziness of this piece even more.. But anyhow love it!
We are just 6800 to go for 100,000 sub celebration production, will you help by spreading the word about Traum's channel, so we can have a double celebration? A time for us to say THANK YOU for his continuously GIVING the beautiful music.

That's really amazing. BTW, if you don't mind, here are some suggestions: 1) Chopin's Nocturne in F minor (Op. 55 No. 1) 2) Chopin's Prelude in B-Flat minor, No. 16, I know this one is hard but I'd really be interested in hearing your interpretation of the piece.
Sir, I might make a character in my novel based on you... an absolutely amazingly gifted virtuoso who is just unbelievable, and just acts humble about everything.
Absolutely beautiful. This is the first time I've heard this piece but I recognized the melody instantly. It was used in a song called This Machine Kills Ravers by Dada Life.
If you upload without synthesia please do it like you’re doing on Traumian. I’m really enjoying those video’s! I hope we can see live performances from you again soon!😉😃

You’re incorrect, he was slowly summoning the Devil, as you can see at the end.

@Corbin Lovett too terrifying tbh 😢
Whats the name of the poem ??
The wrist pain from this piece is more terrifying than the music itself

Traum just keeps pumping out these difficult pieces like it's nothing
Imagine if he would upload "el contrabandista" from liszt next...
I will tell you the story of this piece, it’s about a child being killed in the woods by erkornig
Franz Liszt I already know it
Not like it's nothing, he obviously practices a lot.
Right. Like the Liszt did
Why is nobody talking about how clean this playing was? Truly impressive.
Agreed
Yes

Lyrics translated to English:
Who rides, so late, through night and wind?
It is the father with his child.
He has the boy well in his arm
He holds him safely, he keeps him warm.
"My son, why do you hide your face in fear?"
"Father, do you not see the Elfking?
The Elfking with crown and cape?"
"My son, it's a streak of fog."
"You dear child, come, go with me!
(Very) beautiful games I play with you;
many a colourful flower is on the beach,
My mother has many a golden robe."
"My father, my father, and heareth you not,
What the Elfking quietly promises me?"
"Be calm, stay calm, my child;
Through scrawny leaves the wind is sighing."
"Do you, fine boy, want to go with me?
My daughters shall wait on you finely;
My daughters lead the nightly dance,
And rock and dance and sing to bring you in.
"My father, my father, and don't you see there
The Elfking's daughters in the gloomy place?"
"My son, my son, I see it clearly:
There shimmer the old willows so grey."
"I love you, your beautiful form entices me;
And if you're not willing, then I will use force."
"My father, my father, he's touching me now!
The Elfking has done me harm!"
It horrifies the father; he swiftly rides on,
He holds the moaning child in his arms,
Reaches the farm with great difficulty;
In his arms, the child was dead.
This translation is better:

‘My son, why do you hide your face in fear?’

‘Father, father, can you not see

‘My son, my son, I can see clearly:

‘I love you, your fair form allures me,
and if you don’t come willingly, I’ll use force.’

Yes it does 😃
“We all have two lives. The second one starts when we realize that we only have one.”
And the third one when we realize we are dying...
I ALWAYS get goosebumps as hell when hearing that piece. Probably one of my favourite pieces of all time.
The left hand is just mesmerizing
@@Traumfanblueheron and the right hand is just painful to watch

You mean the the technical challenge or do you mean Traum's interpretation?
@@Traumfanblueheron it is not traum's interpretation , i am saying the wrist motion

Thanks for the clarification.
I love Traum and think he is an exceptional pianist and the most humbled and kind person.
The piano smoking from the intense playing. Wow! The repeated octaves/chords are also very tiring, how do you handle it?

Haven’t heard this piece in awhile thank you traum
What a great performance worthy of a world class pianist.
Totally true, loved it as well!
Wow! Outstanding performance as always, you always cease to amaze me with your virtuosity:)
Just amazing !! Woaw ! Those octaves are way scarier than the piece in itself. And those jumps too ! Congratulations like really
I listened this yesterday more than 10 times :D what a coincidence ha 😁 glad to listen this fascinating piece from you
I’m just learning this piece, and wow!

Ahhh I just played this crazy piece one week ago (while I sang the ballade too🤓) and now you playing it too

1) Chopin's Nocturne in F minor
(Op. 55 No. 1)
2) Chopin's Prelude in B-Flat minor, No. 16, I know this one is hard but I'd really be interested in hearing your interpretation of the piece.
I am the first to see the video, you are the best in the universe, my friend, I congratulate you.❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪💪
What an amazing interpretation... Goosebumps!
Bravo
Ive always wanted to hear a good performance of this on piano! You are the best.
3:14 real fire begins 🔥🔥
I expected to see floating notes, but still cool!
And yes, the smoking effect is mesmerizing!
Oooh I love this piece!!! The smoke is cool cool.
Sir, I might make a character in my novel based on you... an absolutely amazingly gifted virtuoso who is just unbelievable, and just acts humble about everything.
Just finished practicing, watched this vid, and I swear I have more hand cramps now than before...
Traum, how is it that you manage to be the most clickbaity yet also the most legitimate synthesia/overhead pianist on youtube.
I have been waiting for this piece. It’s so beautiful and powerful.
Wow traum , very good 👍👍❤️❤️
Thanks!!

Can you play nocturne op 55 no 1?
I personally perfect it with the synthesia. Beautiful playing thank you
Love it! Please go on spotify
Wow Spectacular performance 🎹 Bravoooo 🎹👏
Wow insane performance, also I really love the new intro animation looks great, welcome back traum😊
Absolutely beautiful. This is the first time I've heard this piece but I recognized the melody instantly. It was used in a song called This Machine Kills Ravers by Dada Life.
If you upload without synthesia please do it like you’re doing on Traumian. I’m really enjoying those video’s! I hope we can see live performances from you again soon!😉😃
Oh I love this piece
