I must say, musically this is probably one of the better renditions I've heard thus far...Although, that look you give at the end is pretty creepy. Keep up the good work!
Excuse me while I cry at your perfection ;_; My friend is having a Downton Abbey-themed golf cart for her being in homecoming court this week (I don't think schools usually do golf carts... do they?) and we get to play this song in band for her. It's going to be awesome. And you're awesome. And now I'll continue crying in sheer joy.
AJ....Wow..what a fantastic job you've done..I really hope you're planning on making a career out of what comes so naturally to you. you're a genius!!!! I hope the producers of this show have heard this...you are going to go far!
Thanks, everyone! I appreciate all the nice comments. I just got back to college, so I may have some time to make a tutorial. Any ideas on how to do this? Thanks, AJ.
Best cover on RUclips I've seen. It sounds wrong on everybody else's at around 0:23. Probably doesn't translate perfectly to pure piano but this is great.
AJ-thanks so much for providing this. In checking other versions of this, I find that yours is easily the best. Watching you play, you remind me of myself playing the piano at your age. :-) Have a spectacular new year! Grant
Absolutely amazing arrangement and playing! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and music! This is a beautiful piano arrangement of the theme, definitely the best I have heard so far. Keep playing and composing!
This is probably the best version I have heard of my favourite theme song! thank you finally! I went and listened to some of your original music sounds amazing!! you are really talented! keep up the amazing work!
Thank you for posting this! Although I can't play by ear (sadly), it helps to hear it and have the notes too. I think I'm going to play this at my spring piano recital :)
Thank you for the wonderful comment! I really love composing. It's such a great feeling to create something from scratch. I really hope it turns out to be something I can pursue professionally and successfully. However, if I end up doing anything else, I know that I will always compose for fun (like you!). Best of luck with the piece! AJ
You're welcome! It took me a couple of days to practice the arrangement and then about an hour to record it (I made a few mistakes). I transcribed it after I had played it out. Good luck!
It's beautiful! I just watched the first episode of Downton Abbey, and the main thing I got from the show was the theme song! You've done an amazing job!
It helped me to practice the left hand thinking 123-123 instead of 12-12-12. The song switches between those rhythmic emphases a few times. If you get comfortable both ways with one hand, it's easier to detangle using both hands.
absolutely beautiful. Watching/hearing this video makes me want to practice and learn this piece! I got the sheet music from your site. Thank you! You make it sound so perfect!
Downton Abbey has such beautiful music. I could listen to it over and over. You need to put "Such Good Luck" on here, too. It's Matthew and Mary's song and since Matthew's gone need to hear it more. :)
lol the look he gives the camera at the end though
I must say, musically this is probably one of the better renditions I've heard thus far...Although, that look you give at the end is pretty creepy. Keep up the good work!
this is nearly flawless. I've been learning it the past few days and it's so difficult to make it sound like this. amazing!
How's it coming along?
Thanks for the nice comment :)
that's the best piece in piano i have ever heard
Nothing like a young mind playing a hauntingly beautiful piece, very well done!
I love this song!! The right hand I've got down but the left hand is proving to be more difficult.
Unreal. You are simply the best.
Simply brilliant! 👏👏👏🎹🎹🎹 Straight to the heart. Well done.
Beautifully played. Bravo! Truly, this song is so melodically pleasing.
You are so talented, young man. Thank you for sharing your music with us. The music is great, who wrote this song must be a genius.
Wow! This is by far the best cover I've heard of this lovely piece.
If the Downton Abbey theme didn't have the violin part, this is what it'll sound like. Nice piece! :)
Thanks!!
This is absolutely phenomenal, by far the best cover of the theme that I've heard! Thank you for posting it!
Thank you very much!
Oh my God... This is so incredibly beautiful!.. You play it perfectly! I'm truly amazed. Bravo!
Excuse me while I cry at your perfection ;_;

That sleight of hand at 2:28 tho.
Thank you - I'm inspired to get back to playing piano thanks to your sheet music.

You are phenomenal, I'm not surprised if they would ask you to play it live for them! Really well done!
The best thing I've heard in a long time...I listen to this everyday :D
I thought Edward the Vampire was staring at me the end there!! Scary! Nice playing Eddie!!
Really well done! The look back at the end was hilarious.
Amazing!, keep up the good work AJ Churchill!
I understand! You're definitely right about the tempo... I am not sure why I played it so fast. Thanks for the feedback!
Absolutely amazing arrangement and playing! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and music! This is a beautiful piano arrangement of the theme, definitely the best I have heard so far. Keep playing and composing!

Tks a lot!!! I've been practicing this and think it's almost goog. Thank you very much🎉
I wish I could play as well; I can't quite play this at the right tempo. Thanks for sharing your talent!
This is a great adaptation - I'm snagging the sheet music. Thanks for sharing your talent!

This is probably the best version I have heard of my favourite theme song! thank you finally! I went and listened to some of your original music sounds amazing!! you are really talented! keep up the amazing work!
This is awesome! Sheet music was so helpful. It took me a whole day to learn but it was worth it :)
Thank you for posting this! Although I can't play by ear (sadly), it helps to hear it and have the notes too. I think I'm going to play this at my spring piano recital :)

I agree, some of the versions online aren't that great, so I arranged my own. Glad you like it!
You're welcome! It took me a couple of days to practice the arrangement and then about an hour to record it (I made a few mistakes). I transcribed it after I had played it out. Good luck!
this is fantastic- i am a violinist and a pianist so i will be learning both parts- shouldn't take long but will be fun! thanks!
It's beautiful! I just watched the first episode of Downton Abbey, and the main thing I got from the show was the theme song! You've done an amazing job!
WOW!!! that is nothing but excellent!!! I love it....well done!!!!!!
still love it!!!!
best piano version on youtube! And thx for the piano sheets..
this is amazing! it sounds so beautiful.
Excellent job. I wish I could play like you
Really good job! Congratulations, very well played.
It helped me to practice the left hand thinking 123-123 instead of 12-12-12. The song switches between those rhythmic emphases a few times. If you get comfortable both ways with one hand, it's easier to detangle using both hands.
Beautiful playing, thank you!!!
Thanks for the sheet music, love it!
beautiful!!! This is THE BEST version on youtube! thanks for the sheet music...I'm attempting to learn this song :)
thank you so much for the sheet music! i've been looking for it everywhere! :D
This is amazing my friend has taken piano lessons for 3 years now and she isn't this good:)
Fantastic! So impressed
Wish I could play the piano. If I were that good I would never be bored.
I enjoyed this. You never dropped the rhythm which made it sound fresh and moving. Like a train, is how I like to call it.
This piece was amazing! I am learning the song and it is really hard.
Beautiful.
you are truly gifted - thank you for sharing with us!!!
Thanks for listening!
absolutely beautiful. Watching/hearing this video makes me want to practice and learn this piece! I got the sheet music from your site. Thank you! You make it sound so perfect!
Go for it!! And thanks for the kind words.
Beautiful!! Its amazing!!
This is great! Watched it in working on my Downton arrangement for accordion. From the side you totally look like Matthew Crawley!
Awesome piece :D Thanks for the sheet music, this song has been on my mind for a while now and it feels good to play it out :3
awesome work!!! May fame and fortune find you!
If you find it hard, simplify it a bit so you can play it! You don't need all the intricate rhythmic left hand stuff. Let me know how you do! :)
I'm really happy I inspired you! Thanks for the message!
aj
Thanks very much! Means a lot to hear that.
Beautiful, you played it really great!!
It's a great score! Thanks.
Very nice! You played that very well!
Downton Abbey has such beautiful music. I could listen to it over and over. You need to put "Such Good Luck" on here, too. It's Matthew and Mary's song and since Matthew's gone need to hear it more. :)
This is fantastic!
I will take a look at it! Thanks for the message!
Sounds great!
Wow, this is really amazing!
Well done. Thank you. I really enjoyed it.
Love it!!! I wanna play the same song but its soo difficult .. well done! Greetings from Argentina :)
Wow, that was really amazing!!!
Love it!
I 've just played it and it's so great to play this, even if at the end, your left fingers hurt.. ;)
Nice playing and you are a totally CUTIE!

You're welcome! Thanks for the nice comment.
Thank you so much for sharing! :D
