This was my auntie's favortie song, and when she passed away we played this song on her funeral, one day i wish i could play this song as perfect as u did, thank u for playing a such beautiful masterpiece.
❤
I would like it played at my funeral also as I have terminal cancer …
Easily one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard.
Made me cry everytime like a little boy this movie…
This was my childhood and it's such an emotional piece of music brings me to tears every time 😢
Same. I watched this over and over and over in the 80's
This is one of the most beautiful and emotional songs in the history of music. It puts a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye every time I hear it. I watched this movie a million times when I was a little kid in the 80's and it brings me back there each time I hear this song.
We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly
I'm holding very tight
I'm riding in the midnight blue
I'm finding I can fly so high above with you
Far across the world
The villages go by like trees
The rivers and the hills
The forest and the streams
Children gaze open mouth
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below believes their eyes
We're surfing in the air
We're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by
Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep
Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep
We're walking in the air
We're floating in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly, we're walking in the air, walking in the air
Such simple tune and harmony, yet so beautiful and memorable 😊
this was my childhood
This is my favourite song ...no words .just piano...iv collected snowman figurines over the years ..I just love him but its so sad 😞 it makes me want to cry 😢 but I still love ❤ it ❤
Ho-ly .... Goosebumps for 3:54 minutes straight. Amazing play!!
One of my favorite piano selections for Christmas music! Bravo!
Wow he is really good.He is a amazing pianoist.
Have you seen The Snowman? If so, what age were you? The Snowman is a beautiful, short animated Christmas film and Symphonic Poem based on Raymond Briggs' 1978 picture book The Snowman. It first aired on December 1982. As a child, I found the movie disturbing. A little boy makes a snowman that comes to life, they have adventures together, and then the snowman melts. “Walking in the Air” is originally sung by a boy soprano as the boy and snowman fly across the sky. The composer, Howard Blake, said he wrote the song when he was going through a difficult period in his life. The song became an instant success and was made famous by the boy soprano, Aled Jones. This solo piano arrangement is composed by Dave Peppiatt. Here is his original performance: ruclips.net/video/MbhvXKLmJJs/видео.html The sheet music is here: www.mediafire.com/file/tiecnvvpkykqddd/Walking_in_the_Air_-_The_Snowman_%2528Piano_Solo%2529.pdf/file
Omg I just clicked on the vid without reading the title and the wave of nostalgia that hit me as soon as that melody came in had the weight of a truck. I have such a vivid recollection of this film, so thanks for making me relive those memories of simpler times :)
Edit: I think I was around 5 or six shen I saw ot first, maybe even younger (I'm still only twenty now and I dont really know anyone else outside of close British family who has also seen the film) l also agree that the film is slightly disturbing in some ways, maybe because of the alien nature of the snowmen or the fact that nobody talks. Still a very sad story, I mostly remember the apprehension I felt from the scenes where the Snowman enters the house and emits pure chaos
@@jossecoupe446 haha! Comments like this are what I live for. YES! LOL.. alien nature of the snowman and pure chaos. I am not British, but my mother went to art school in London and brought back certain "traditions" with her (I guess that would be the word). I wasn't crazy about this movie as a kid because 1. there was no speaking, 2. it was sad and 3. it scared me! Alas, I recently listened to the music and fell on the floor balling my eyes out so I guess it must have left a lasting impression.
@@Eusebiuspiano True on all three points for me as well xD, the idea of being dragged off through the sky by a mute, magical snowman that you've only known for a day during a blizzard was always nervwracking to me (still kinda is). I just rewatched the first ten minutes and the music goes so well with everything and also increases apprehension significantly in stressful scenes, just nostalgia through and through though (also the artstyle can be super comfy)
The piano part needs to be added like this to itunes
Nice textures again! Never heard of this before. Sounds ambient and beautiful especially with the reverb!
Glad you like it!
The animated version of The Snowman is one my favorite pieces in all media--the animation and score are both beautiful. And it's short--only about 18 or so minutes? I highly recommend you give the full film a try.
The music in the cartoon the snowman is just beautiful but the actual cartoon itself, is a very sad story. I'm 35 years old and it still brings a tear to my eyes
Classic
Perfect piece! We all love this film. Lovely playing and also love the snowflake visualisations🎹👏🙏💜
Just watched the clip from the movie and it's just magical. No wonder it made a lasting impression. Both the music and art style are very captivating and sets the mood perfectly for an uncertain adventure 😃. Awesome song and great performance! Thank you for sharing 😁

omg I'm playing this on a Christmas concert
Awesome!!
One of the most beautiful songs 😍....I like your work ,that's why +Tina
I had never seen the film so just watched the original clip of this part on youtube to get a better understanding of the piece. There's such a sad yet beautiful mood to this. Very pretty visuals as well; they match perfectly! Great piece for winter (Which happens to be my favourite time of year). Too bad you didn't sing it as well lol! ;)
Aww! So glad you went and watched the original. It brings me to tears every time! Today was the first big snow ❄️ storm of this season for us! Has it snowed yet for you?
@@Eusebiuspiano It has snowed a few times, but not very much until today. It's snowing out very heavily as I am typing this! It's a bit of a childish thing I know but, whenever it snows I actually get really exited and I don't know why xD.
I also must say that the one clip of this movie that I watched reminded me of a childhood cartoon I watched "Die Sendung mit der Maus". Although this cartoon isn't nearly as effective in evoking emotions, it has that old cartoon look and has no talking. Gave me a hint of nostalgia.
@@pianospiel1770 interesting, I looked up the show, and I did not realize German law (at least at one point) prohibited television for children under 6 years of age!
@@Eusebiuspiano Ah yes, most likely one of the JuSchG laws.
Beautifully played! Thank you.
like the visuals! so LIT
I didn't know this piece but I know that I love your playing. Greets ✌
Very very cool😮😮
