Classical Intro and Outro, arranged and played by the Austrian Pianist Hannes Otahal. Recorded in 2009, more than twenty years later than the first version. Very virtuous piano playing!
This is by far the best take on "Bumble Boogie" I have ever witnessed. The speed and accuracy are outstanding and Hannes has truly made it his own. I don't think there is a single word which can describe it what you see in this video.
+Cannock Chase Organ Club Have you listened to the one by liberace ?
Yes, many times!
Cannock Chase Organ Club And you still think this "version" is better ?
Yes. That's personal opinion. I find this is the better version out of all the ones I've heard. Do you have a problem with that?
+Der Verbesserer 0816 I'd rather listen to this version. Liberace was a showman, and his version is very showy. That's not bad. That's what made him a mega star. This version while not showy, is just damn awesome!
Я смотрю уже сотый раз это бесподобное исполнение-словине хватает, чтобы высказать свой восторг от этого исполнения. У меня такое ощущение,что никто из классических исполнителей на такое исполнение не способен-Это исполнение невозможно повторить!!! Но как это прекрасно!!! Спасибо!!!
For the life of me I can never understand why there's dislikes on this clip.
Anyone that appreciates music or plays can plainly see that Hannes is one of the most talented virtuoso's that ever sat at a piano. There's nothing at all to dislike about this video at all that I can even by the stretch of the imagination , can see.
I really wish that those people would stop being either wiseguy's or haters, I think the player is fantastic bravo!!! Hannes
Бравооо!!! Блестяще!!!👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@lflarry1 agreed, comrade
Спасибо
And it's usually from idiots who wouldn't know one end of a piano from the other.
people are too ignorant to realize that skill like this exists in the natural world, but takes years upon years of practice and experience. this is magnificent playing on so many levels. you remind me of a jazz arcadi volodos. absolutely flawless
This is outstanding, I can´t imagine how many hours of study and practice he made to reach this flawles level of piano playing,
Haha, yea, I've been playing 6 years and this is still way too hard for me
EpicfaceMcepic Heck, i've been playing for 11 and this is still at least 10+ years above my level. He's probably been playing for 25+ years.
Typically about 10,000 hours of playing will give you this kind of skill.
Always good to talk to an old fellow South African. I'm still a young 55 years but haven't lived there for a good 18 years now.
I remember reading somewhere that to achieve greatness, it would take at least 10,000 hours of practice no matter what you're doing being it playing the piano or doing magic tricks. All it takes is hard work but try telling that to the kids today!
Ek praat darem nog steeds Afrikaans. Geniet jou dag.

It doesn't seem at all "phantastic" that there are far more difficult compositions than this one. Obviously there are, and everyone knows it. So what.
03:17 ... the rythm and his control blew my mind
In diesem Genre ist Hannes Otahal einer der Besten. Er flirtet nicht mit der Kamera, wie viele Andere, sondern spielt voll konzentriert, sein Fokus ist nur auf die Tasten gerichtet, Die Töne kommen glasklar, die Anschläge sind sauber, keine Note wird übergangen oder verwischt. Ich bewundere seine Perfektion.
Diese Art von Professionalität ist für mich faszinierend. Vielen Dank!
Absolutely the finest playing of the Bumble Boogie on the internet. There is no other version of this complexity and difficulty. Every note seems to come thru as clear as a bell although many are played at a mind boggling pace. His thirds are truly awesome. At times Otahal plays octaves in the right hand at lightning speeds, with perfect precision, as he moves up and down the keyboard. Most performers stay with a simpler version often using single notes.
Ive seen the Liberace performances of this piece and his renditions (although very good) do not require the virtuosity and are not nearly as interesting as this arrangement.
One can not listen to Hans Otahal's performance of the Bumble Boogie just once as its so exceptional.
Why anyone would dislike this video is beyond me except there are those malcontents who just have to make some kind of an opposing statement (which is dismissed, in this case, by the vast majority).
I only thought I'd seen good piano players till now. I'm at a loss to describe this.
There are certainly others...try Hiromi Uehara's Tom and Jerry or Summertime on for size. I will admit it is EXTREMELY rarified atmosphere these folks operate in, though.
this man is a genius
Liberace tried to play this but not a patch on this guy!
Ssssssssssssssssssssppppppppppppeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrr. ..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Now there's a guy who practiced his scales every day...
Ha yes that's where I went wrong
Maybe he played Czerny a lot.
More like a guy who practices the bumble boogie every day
Possibly even his arpeggios as well
Apparently practice makes you better.
This is best edition I've ever heard. Every note is so clear and accurate!!!
In a word: wow.
Just love the boogie beet,this is the most "intense " version that I ever heard.
Finally!!!! You are a person who does not cut the notes , you are marvelous!
There's nothing more enjoyable that watching someone at the top of their craft. This is Brilliant.
The best Bumblebee Boogie ever be played on RUclips. Hats Off to you!
THE BEST PIANO PLAYER EVER!
BEST VERSION I’VE EVER HEARD, PERIOD!!! WELL DONE, SIR!
That was one of the most incredible things I've seen in my entire life
To anybody that thinks this video is sped up- the answer is NO. I'm a boogie pianist myself and I can see that it's not sped up, Hannes has a really really good technique. It's a joy to watch how fluent he plays.. Thanks, mr. Otahal! Keep up the great boogie.
So many thanks, Lasse! You're right. It's a pleasure to listen to you! And it's great to read a comment from someone who knows how to play the piano
He replied 9 years later
I never get sick of watching him play this nor listening to it! Phenomenal! THEE DEFINITIVE BUMBLE BOOGIE!
the most incredible and inspiring video of someone playing piano
I love how at 2:28, after doing that long rundown, he introduces the bass groove with both hands, then just leaves his left hand to do it by itself while he begins the right hand melody, its so awesome.
That’s how it is written. :)
He played without orchester? I'm in shock!!! Bravissimo, Maestro!
He is not human. AMAZING STUFF.
Worlds first spider to hands transplant
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! Impeccable accuracy, tempo, everything!
The excellence in this performance is unsurpassed... almost like it's not human.
An absolute master at work fantastic!
The grandmaster of piano. Your fingers are faster than the blink of an eye. Very precise notes, you've just outdid the math in music. Bravo!
Freakin' Frp flap flap... That's about it. This guy is off the charts phenomenal. Truly a gift. If I should ever think that I'm a good piano player, dude here reminds me that I'm more of an entertainer than a piano player.
This is BEST piano piece I've EVER heard !!! Played so strong and so juicy in full power !!! I listened 28 times so far ! Amazing ! BRAVO !!!
Amazing, brilliant, and definitely cuts any hope to ever be able to play this monstrous piece of art in a million years
just out of this world. How on earth do you manage such speed and accuracy and to synchronze such different hand speeds.
me: watches for 2 minutes, smashes head in the piano
Just like Don Music?
Her: this isn't what i meant when i asked, "what them fingers do?"
Hannes: oh...
So enjoyed listening to this powerful performance by a Maestro Pianist who I bet has classical training. Bravo👏👏👏❤💐
I have this song on record and I always wanted to see it in action. Brilliant.
Phenomenal my friend ... absolutely beautiful... thanks for posting ..
Wow! That was amazing!
I ought to admit, this is a bit better than Liberace's version.
The speed that he started playing at after finishing the into got me! My jaw dropped. That's insane!
That has to be the very best version of "Bumble Boogie" that I have ever heard (Die beisten) version thank you for sharing it. Ed
Wow, that's a seriously great pianist very impressive
Amazing Talent and Dedication! Thank you! Listening to you is a real treat🎉
I wish you could too - but you can't
By far the best version of this song I have ever heard! Love it!!!!
You know, no matter what skill it is, somewhere in the world at any one time is the person that is the very best at it. IMO Hannes is the very best boogie woogie piano player in the world.
The power of the mind is amazing
I learned this last night. Pretty straight forward. All that's needed is an innate gift of celestial musical talents combined with the dexterity that only 1 in a billion have. I don't have either.
I'm an instant-fan. You're my hero. Officially from this day on. You write history, especially the history of my youtube account...
One of the greatest instrumentals of the 20th century, and come to find out there's an EXTENDED version? You, sir, just made my day.
i was waiting for it to burst into flames!
I'm surprised that no one called the fire department!
Can’t believe it only has 12K likes from 1.3M views! Outstanding!!!
He is real master! Two ears are not enough to hear it :D
OUTSTANDING!!! If anyone has ever tried to record themselves, it's ALMOST impossible.
Loop it then minimize it. Hearing it is even better than watching it!
So amazing how you blended the jazz into a classical piece as "flight of the bumble bee" !! Totally amazing ! you should have your own mark in the history books..... standing ovations !
Utterly speechless. That's impossible! Master indeed! Bravo!
Wonderful. The best rendition I've heard on RUclips, and I love that piece.
My dad taught me play the Bumble Boogie, but never could play it like this, not even close! Now my crooked fingers can't reach an octave. I will play this video for my daddy when I see him next. He has Alzheimer's, I can show him pictures of his old Porsches, he remembers them, I can bet it will bring a smile to his face. Thank you, amazing! You do it Justice.
I think, if ever reach to play this masterpiece, at the end my arms would fall down to the floor!
Unbelievable skills!
An excellent demonstration of mad skills!
This makes me smile every single time I hear it. Brilliant.
My fingers hurt just by looking at it.
Basically all of the fun stuff and character is perfect and the superhuman stuff is even artistically beautiful.
THIS.
IS.
AWESOME!
R u kidding me?! So crazy fast. I am n awe, sir
Well done Sir! God bless your gift.
I’ve always loved hearing bumble boogie but I haven’t heard it played in a long time
Bravo! I am so learning this before I die!
Absolute Bombe, danke !🤟
BRAVOOOOOOOO !!!!!!
How nice that he provides the sheet music so I can immediately reproduce this at my piano! Great!
OH. It's as hard as it sounds.
BRAVO!!!
I've watched it a dozen times and still don`t believe anyone's hands can move that fast, and still hit the notes. Amazing.
And the dislikes were for.......????? Wrong shirt? Too many books on top???? Not your favourite composition??? Too clever, clear, precise? The.......?
Es ist fast unglaublich, wie Hannes die verschiedensten Stile am Piano beherrscht. Alles immer first class.
OH MY GOOOOOD
A lovely way to pass a Corona isolation day listening to beautiful music.
Sehr stark! Ich bewundere dieses Fingertempo!
Seine Frau wahrscheinlich auch ;-)
hahaha
Nicht das Tempo, die Prözision
Wite whigga 😂👏
How many times I watched this. It deserves an Oscar! What a performance!
As far as I know that's the Intro of Spike Jones
He makes it look so effortless.... Wow. Just wow. Amazing
Thank you for sharing this stunning performance of piano master Hannes Otahal! We have shared this on our website at RealPianoMusic.com and our Official Fanpage at facebook.com/realpianomusic.
Dave Grusin brought me here. I'm so glad he did :)
Very very impressive Schroeder7. I am truly amazed.
Lady Gaga, justin Bieber etc....THIS is music!
defuq? what have you smoke?
LOL ! :)
No, to get to this level you need to NOT smoke anything, for a long time.
Looks more like cocaine or stuff like this.
Everyday, he finds a piano and shaves off some wood and smokes that.
I'll combine meth, crack, coffee and candy to replicate this
Mad skills
do i hear some liszt influence in the last part
I hear a bit of Mazeppa here
Incredible! I Salute this Pianist on a dailyy
holy fuck!!!!!!
WOW! That was WILD! Absolutely LOVED it! I wish I were half that talented.
Next up, Timmy with Hot cross buns.
JustJonesy haha
Rarely have I seen anyone with such crystal clear technique and control. If ever. What’s more you can tell he’s relaxed and not tensed up on those runs! Of course a yamaha has a pretty clean and responsive action, but damn, this man is a god.
He took his first piano lesson when he was a sperm
Yah, and probably about 40K more hours of practice after that. I'm not sure the piano and player haven't sort of "become one" at this level. Kind of Hiromi Uehara, Yuja Wang, Van Cliburn level stuff. One favorite of mine is Jarret's "Summertime"...in his case it is interpretation/improvisation, but another at this stratospheric level
Most amazing thing I have seen in a long while
Gut fur Anfänger uder nicht
One year to arrange it, memorize it, and to master it, Bravo!
One of the best boogie woogie I have ever heard!
WOW!!!!! Best Bumble Boogie I have ever heard!
