Idk how I sometimes forget that Alicia Keys isn’t just a singer but a musical powerhouse
"Amazing"???
Respect the work of the ingenious composer! The vulgarity that we see and hear here has no right to exist! This is shame, this is shame!
Do ur homework
@@funkutoo5305 here's some homework for you
Translate this:
Geh fik dich selbst
@@kirsche370 ach die schöne deutsche Sprache hahaha
She is 🔥
Kobe learned to play this for Vanessa in one week as a romantic surprise for her. No words.
Are you saying Kobe learned to play this on piano???
@@sonofprince4124 I doubted this so did a search and low and behold he did do it, if you type "Kobe Bryant plays Moonlight Sonata" into the RUclips channel, it will come up. I can't put the direct link in, don't think it's allowed.
Yeah Kobe learned how to play this for Gianna and then Keys did it to honor how much Gigi meant to Kobe.
@@jayceec3178 Wow!
@@WiltedSalads Amazing! That some talent!
Music by Beethoven, 200 years old, still soothes the soul today.
And he continued to give us great music even though he was considerably deaf at this point.
@@cutazabutton Yessss!!!
That is what counts. The foodprints that you leave behind 🤗
like the math 1plus 1 is still 2 after 1000 years
@@chinatota that's not math that's counting.
the look on Vanessa’s face is so heart breaking, to this day i still can’t believe they’re gone.
That part always makes me cry I can feel her pain thru the screen.
@Alissa And to have to deal with it all so publicly. She’s an incredibly brave woman! I hope all of the families impacted have been granted the serenity to accept what cannot be changed.
Yea when she bows her head 😔
Powerful music without saying a word.
This made me feel all sorts of ways. I love Alicia Keys now I never knew how talented she was with the pino.
Real music!!
she is talented
true that
Better than rap with disturbing lyrics
That's a hard piece of music to play & she did a wonderful job honoring Kobe & Gigi.
Love that she's classically trained & was able to nail it on the big stage. You can see how moved Vanessa was.
Stilez it’s actually pretty easy but moving nevertheless
@@adrianleiva13 was gonna say that
@@adrianleiva13 always one just couldn't let it be could you..smh
It is beginner level piano for any classical trained pianist.
This is not hard at all to play. But she played it beautifully.
Can only imagine all the memories that came to Vanessas mind as Alicia keys was playing this beautiful piece😭😭😭my heart!!
Eunice Orellana same!!!! She was looking up at all the pictures of them two just balling. Literally painful to watch!!!!
Kobe was studying how to play this for her before he passed 😕
That had to be hard...
What were the gestures Alicia did at the end?
Alicia keys is in a musical league of her own.
Yes
AND NOW; THE HAMMER; WHO KNEW THAT BEETHOVEN WAS A BLACK MAN! I GOT THE ORIGINAL!
I been saying this for years
I disagree. She is way too overrated, plus she is playing lifelessly, without putting her soul into it. I know people with 2 years of piano experience - they play the Moonlight Sonata better than she does :/
Tyrell Lewis uhhh... that’s not how music works, she’ll play better if she lets it out
1:52 when Venessa hung her head down I LOST IT....Howwwww can someone one carry that much pain... My heart is breaking for her
You could see the emotion in her face while playing.
Sarcasm and thirst for money?
@@ajolawiweyo653 you need to talk anything out man?
AJ Olawiweyo must be one of them russian hackers
@@funkyforager3897 I do. I, like all the non-biased watchers, am tired of Alicia's fake, mercantile behaviour. She claims to be for women empowerment, yet sleeps with a married man. She claims to be a musical genius, yet copies "girl on fire". She claims to have written and produced "Songs in a minor" all by herself, when there's like 50+ credits on that album... Lies everywhere
@@Kay.D xD
Your irrelevant allegations will not hide the fact, that AK is nothing.
You can see the hurt in Alicia face! 😭😭😭
She's happy to play
I was thinking that. She did an awesome job at such a solemn occasion. The energy and emotion there was so intense. Many would’ve buckled under pressure.
Well what i actually think..the same condition as vanessa..may be less is like that woman whose home is broken by alicia..same pain..
Amanda Drummond sad😞
TCB * she’s happy to play, but the hurt in her eyes! She was playing that song in pain! She did a beautiful job!
“To play a wrong note is insignificant, to play without passion is inexcusable.” - Beethoven. This is a performance for a great man who sadly passed away in a tragic accident. Play this piece like its the last time you may ever perform for Kobe Bryant.
Anyhow
1:50-2:00 That note, and then the camera cuts to Vanessa. The most heartbreaking 10 seconds ever.
Uuugh...I can't! Tears me up 😭😭😭
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that felt this way 😭😭😭😭😭💜💛🕊
💔💔💔💔
I just teared up watching this.
I just *CAN NOT* understand why someone would dislike this.
I NOW RIGHT
carlos Montenegro I think it’s the same people going from awesome video to video gettin their dislike on. Pray for them
Me either. Heartless people
Ms. Keys played the song beautifully, she is highly talented and a great pianist. With no reflection on her talent or ability, the occasion is so solemn and filled with grief, that even the piano sounds sad and angry.
I wouldn't say so. To me - the piano has NO emotions what so ever. Alicia is not feeling any remorse - jsut doing it for the money
Eh, the dynamics weren’t exactly there. And the string quartet made the whole thing worse. I would’ve enjoyed seeing her play all 3 movements.
Ryan Guerra she is not as talented as you think she is...
AJ Olawiweyo wow wow you something else just doing it for the money how much money she have
@@ryanguerra2024 Yeah, let's perform all three movements and lose the audience's attention for 15 minutes. And yeah, let's play the third movement that is so appropriate for a memorial. Tf?
This performance gave me the chills, she is so talented, a true gift to music. Rip, to everyone that passed.
Her sense of timing and accentuation is as flawless as I could imagine. She understands the words spoken in each of those notes. The longing pleas of love that envelop and develop. True art.
Alicia outdid herself. Bravo to real musicians
Indeed. I'm so proud of her. Not even close to being an easy piece. ❤
It's actually one of the easiest classical movements to play, and on top of that she actually butchered it to be honest with horrible fee. A for effort though
Lying Dog Faced Pony Soldier lmao, but is she a classically trained pianist? The answer is no. Stfu and take your negativity elsewhere. Thanks.
Lying Dog Faced Pony Soldier you are prasing beyawnce beyawnce is ugly and fake and slept to get to the top after beyawnce used the woman in Destiny child got with jay z alicia didnt need a shyt wanna be tlc girl group to make her become famous like dirty ugly beyawnce alicia is beautiful and talented and let her talent speak for her unlike beyawnce and alicia doesnt have to take her clothes off like that idiot
Thank you Robin! ❤️🎻🏀
Blessed to have Alicia Keys in the world today with that talent. The world needs the sound of music more than ever before. 🙏
She plays lifelessly, copies music and sleeps with married men. Why do we need her?
She is just wonderful,I don’t care whatever bad things they say about her..we are blessed to her in our generation.
@@ajolawiweyo653 You on Jahna Sebastian's payroll, goon? Trolling for Swizz child support coins, lmao sad. Or is it Jahna's punani you're after?
AJ Olawiweyo are you getting paid to spread hate comments or what? Just move on with your life. It's not like you could have done it better.
man come on with the come on
Vanessa tore my heart up during this part... I've never cried this much over any celebrity.. Alicia Keys red(read) the hell out of those notes on that paper.. Absolutely beautiful.... Not an easy piece to play... Pure talent..
Vel Boone ...And Kobe Kieran it then played it for Vanessa he was such a prize
I really would not say that... Alicia is far from being a musical talent
AJ Olawiweyo ...You’re so wrong Mr.
@@ajolawiweyo653 please put the crackpipe down
@@ajolawiweyo653 ok I've seen you in every comment saying literally the same thing so do you need help, you must be hurting to hate so much. someone with no talent can't just go out play (Imo) one of the best classical piano pieces.
Amazing. Who else came here to watch it one more time?
20
amazing
Dude the conductor made me emotional. What an amazing performance and tribute to Vanessa and Kobe's love.
Alicia crying thru the music. Touching and well performed
... 😢.
She’s convinced me that she’s one of my favorite female artists. Can sing, play complex songs on the piano, and has been saying no to makeup
Little Peperoni key word: CAN
You see Vanessa 🥺 bro I cannot even speak on her pain! I know she wishes she can be with Kobe N Gigi but she has 3 other daughters she has to live for that pain of losing a husband and ur own child is a pain that can NEVER be healed nor forgotten this women will always be hurt. 💜
exactly..a pain that will NEVER be healed..she will forever be a changed woman because of this tragedy 💔💔💔😔😔😔
Not only is kobe and his daughter rejoicing to this, but hopefully to all those who lost their lives in the crash. I bet Beethoven being the German moor he was is too smiling with the graciousness of the human spirit. Alicia played that very beautiful, I'm thankful that melan, that discoloration in our skin allows us to be something far greater than perceived ! 🙏 this piece is indeed one for our eon. Rest easy to all champions and young souls. Your stories will forever live on. Jah blessed it.
But she's a witch
Jah as in xxx? Or what lmao better not mention xxtrntacion in the same light as kobe
There was no reference to xxx. And not all witches are bad !
Antonio Boyd beethoven a German moor??
Melanin*
So much expression and beauty coming from an artist without singing a note! What a tribute!
Whenever I play this song, I will always think of Kobe and Gianna.
I admire Vanessa Bryant's strength being able to sit through a piece which was once dedicated to her as a sign of her husband Kobe's love for her and is now being played at his memorial is utterly utterly devastating. Prayers with you Vanessa and all the families who lost their loved ones in this tragedy xxx
Uggh this had me so moved that I couldn't stop crying once the tears began. This song reminded me of when I lost my mother. I felt Vanessa's pain right in this moment. This performance was so moving and a great tribute. To Alicia and to the wonderful orchestra thank you for this! 🙏😢
🙏🙏🙏❤️😥
My mother played this as well. Tears flowing.
That's exactly how I felt as well. Alicia played that so beautifully and I started crying thinking of when I lost my mom also. You can feel the pain from vanessa. Very sad.
I can relate when lost My Mother was the Hardest Day Of My Life.!
I Didn’t Think I Could Make It Through But God Has Been There For Me To Help Me Make It Through For Myself And My Son which is The Most Important Person In My Life.
It’s Been Since 2007 Then A Very Close And Dear Friend was Murder The Next Years By Her Man Her Children’s Father They Had 2 Boys Then He Killed Himself as well Right After Taking Hers.
So for me It was So Much To Deal With Back To Back it was A Very Hard Time And TIL This Day l Still Hurt Sooo Much Being Without My Mother..
Amen 💔🕊🌹
@@lisaayars7263 oh my gosh, that's horrible. I'm so sorry you dealt with all that loss. Yes when I lost my mom it was definitely the worst day of my life as well. I have a son too and all three of us were so close. I can't even explain how close me and my were and how close my son and she were. It was horrific having to tell my son grandma was gone. Worst day of my life for sure. And it was three days before Christmas in 2015. Christmas isn't the same anymore to any of us. I understand your pain. We're not alone though.
The Moonlight Sonata, is one of my favorite pieces, too. My late Grandmother, June, played it for my family for many years and since we lost her in 1999, nothing was ever the same without her magical fingers playing that song on her piano. Just by listening to this, today, in honor of Kobe and Gianna, themselves, it makes me miss those three together. I will forever cherish those moments that they all shared, when they were alive in this world. Rest in Peace, Love, and Harmony, Kobe, Gianna, June, and the remaining that were on board the helicopter.
I loved seeing the all black ensemble. The representation was great for classical music. Beautiful performance too. 💜💛
Why does having an all black ensemble have to do with anything, it's people and comments like what you just said is why America is so devided, you racist idiot, what if a white person was to say the exact same thing, everyone would be crying racism, maybe you should think the next time you say something
If a white person said that you'd call it racism!
Jeff Hill lmao, not even. Remember that blacks are part of the minority meaning there’s less of us. Usually, it’s never all black ensembles and because it’s black history month, that had a huge hand in this. Stop making this larger than it is.
Liam Daley you need to heed that advice as well.
@@travisspaulding9540 accept their criticism that you saw fit to race divide at a memorial. Then you played the victim card. Grow up.
The moonlight sonata is so powerful😔 its Pain, its Anger, it's Sorrow and every other emotions you have losing someone you loved. No words just pure music coz no words can describe this pain..
I would be crying so hard if my man just learned how to play this to show me love and now at his funeral so many memories of us I would have lost it..
My inspiration... I love this woman. She’s talent and beautiful.
That's not true - Alicia copies music and pretends to be something that she is not. Stop worshipping her.
@Gwendolyn Green He is in everybody comments, ignore him. He's obsessed.
@Gwendolyn Green ❤
Shanta G I was just gonna say that! Everyone that has a positive image or compliment to pay Alicia he’s right there to try and shut it down🙄. SMH, some people are just very sad
@@teashuh2449 Yes, it's sad and pathethic.
That was incredible. Chills the whole time. Kobe was studying how to play this piece for Vanessa before he died.
She uses every inch of her body when she performs..not just her fingers on the piano..and not just her voice when she's singing. I absolutely love watching her perform. What a talented woman!
I use to listen to this song when I couldn’t go to sleep but now knowing that this was one of Kobe’s favorites I just heard this with a heavy heart man 😔
I was there watching it and this was speechless.
Wowza
So was I. I tuned the piano!
Mike Olson kudos to you my bro and that epic piano
I’m always in utter disbelief and amazement when I witness someone playing any instrument with such beauty and grace. It takes such mental and physical strength and talent. She did an amazing job and my heart goes out to Vanessa and everyone currently mourning the loss of those innocent souls.
1:50..hard to watch seeing Vanessa like that :(
Heartbreaking
I Cried 😥
She love kobe so much,its hard to see her grief
So sad 😥😥 her heart is broken
@@ryanf3599 😪
This woman was on FIRE.
She did not have to scream and holla to get her magic out.
Beautifully done by A.K. Hope the family can find some peace!!
Such a hauntingly beautiful composition... Beautifully played. R.I.P Kobe & Gianna Bryant
that focus on Vanessa 💔💔💔 it broke my heart. this pain that she's feeling, sadly, will never go away, there's a permanent emptiness in her life, in her heart, her soul..that only Kobe and Gigi could fill..😭😭😭
And she played with her heart ❤️.
I can't understand why anyone would dislike these videos. Don't matter whether you were a Lakers fan or not or if you liked Kobe or you didn't, disliking these videos in which Kobe and Gianna's lives are celebrated is just cruel
Beautifully played and yet utterly heart wrenching. Especially, when we see Mrs. Bryant. Prayers to all of the families.
What a Powerful, Lovely, and Mournful Interepetation.
That was SOOOOO BEAUTIFULLY DONE!!!😫❤️
This is so touching without words.💔😭
Classical music will always be everything 😪❤️
Amazing and very heart moving. My heart is still broken.💔
So moving, well done by all. 👏🏾👏🏾
Wow amazing so touching God bless you through this hard time. 😢🙏
No words just Beautiful!!!!
I know it's been a quitte some time since the crash but to this day, but watching this today, still makes me cry.
Now i think this is mostly because of the combination of Alicia playing this song so beautifully and seeing Vanessa like that.
It breaks my heart seeing her like that. Because not only did she lose her husband but also her babygirl.
R.I.P. Kobe.
You will always be a legend to me and
You may be gone but you won't be forgotten
So much emotion, brought me to tears. Music is such a powerful and amazing gift from God
Incredibly touching, and a respectful tribute.
Literal chills! This piece has always been and still is beautiful
Beautiful !!!! Just wow! And so sad at the same time. So melancholic..... I cried the whole time. I been crying my eyes out.
Beautifully done.
No words needed ...
1:52 omg she makes me cry
black excellence up on that stage!!
not too often you get to see black people play classical music
Maybe you should join a classical music group then or start a parade
Liam Daley you know..i’d take offense to this but you’re actually hilarious 😭😭😭
Not even gonna front like that wasn’t type funny😆
They can't read.
@@enyahreed03 name 2 pieces of Bach out of your head right now.
Touching, beautiful...speechless.
After 8 months later,I'm still crying for this....MIss you Kobe
This was so touching and very heart breaking & beautiful she did that ❤
This was so beautiful!
I kept playing this over and over for me this was the best performance of the day💙
It's a good feeling to know you're a great person and to know great people believe in you is even better♥️
Today is August 16 2020, I am listening to this and I am still crying. KOBE !!!
My!Alicia Keys! that was phenomenal. Everything within her played as she stringed that classic song piece without words...her expressions from beginning to the end was pure and true. I love this lady @Alicia Keys
Love this piece played by a Queen forever missed Kobe Bryant and so beautiful Vanessa Bryant.
Omg this just made me stay still and think about life. So powerful. Lakers 4 Life and Gigi and Kobe live in every one of us
ohh my tears oufffff so beautiful R.I.P. Kobe & Gianna
Perfect Tempo. Thank You.
A slow song is extremely tough to play especially in front of millions. Beautiful
Go Alicia!!!! Piano is definitely a voice all in it's own. You played that..❤️
No Words, pain ,and more than we can feel. Rip Kobe and Gigi
Beautiful and haunting at the same time. RIP mamba
BEAUTIFUL....WHAT A STRONG LADY VANESSA BRYANT
RIH/RIP KOBE AND GIANNA.
GOD ONLY TAKES THE BEST.
Omg my favorite song I was not ready for this I sobbed so hard whew I loved this performance wowwwww
No words its enough to express this terrible loss not only for the Bryans familly but for all their friends whi lost their life. God may them rest easy and lots of confort for all the famillies envolved in this terrible tragedy. Amen😢🙌🙌💔💔
Processing the pain is good for the soul....proud of you Queen🖤 Rest in Power to all we loss that day✊🏽
Not even a single word, but got me into tears
what amazing performance
Very talented artist.
I love how her expressions match what she is playing.
She truly does all of her performances from the heart.
Tnx Alicia, so amazing, RIP Kobe and others.
Beautiful! Just beautiful. Tears.
This is so moving! Probably my favourite classical composer! Alicia is divine! The memorial the Legend really deserved!
Wow. Absolutely beautiful. Still one of my favorite classical pieces of all time.
😢 touches so deep
Alicia you moved the world as you spoke with such healing and soul while honoring love and life of Kobe and Gianna and his beautiful family and soooo many who love him!!! THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so refreshing to watch from a newer artist such as Alicia. Multitalented!!!
She been is music industry for like 20 years. What do you mean
Harrison Benjamin Rusasa that’s recent compared to the likes of Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind and Fire, the beetles, Run DMC and many others. I was well into my late 20’s when she came out. 20 years is still considered a more “newer” artist in my book.
@@Twizzledoc187 new? She's not new at all. She's been doing this long enough. 20 years is a long time, most artists don't even last that long Nowdays, Career wise
Cody Walsh they said Newer. Emphasis on the last 2 letters.
@@travisspaulding9540 yes I know what they said and 20 years still isn't "newER" 🤦♀️
Sem palavras pra tamanho talento ❤️🙌🏾
I love this piece!❤
This is sooo beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time, well done Alicia for such a beautiful performance to honour Kobe and his beautiful little daughter.x
Extraordinarily beautiful gift and tribute. So much heart.💜💛
Two words.. just beautiful
How To express Better the Pain, the lost, the Love and the Memory. Good job and thanks for this emotional dedication of respect🙏
The talent is astounding, this is real music god bless 🖤
