Billie Eilish & Khalid - lovely (Piano Cover)
The final piece in the Billie Eilish saga - her collaboration with Khalid, Lovely. Stripped of all of the words, the music is indeed 'lovely', but behind this disguise is a very melancholic song - though it is this oxymoron that is such a trademark of Billie's music, and is a reason why ...

Liszt - Consolation No. 3
Liszt. Consolation No. 3. One of his more sentimental works, this is a side of Liszt people often forget about amongst the craze over virtuosity - yet a side which is much more mature and marks the way to the genius of his later works. Published the year after Chopin's death, it is hard not to i...
Schubert - Serenade (arr. Liszt)
Serenade (Ständchen), by Schubert. Written two years before his death, this work is a perfect example of the melancholic writing Schubert was so well known for. Being one of his many lieder (in English, "songs", though today we associate the word 'lied' more with art songs), this pi...

Porter Robinson & Madeon - Shelter (Piano Cover)
Shelter. Porter Robinson & Madeon. These two are without a doubt the Chopin and Liszt of electronic music. Last week, Shelter celebrated its 3rd anniversary, yet it feels like yesterday that a collaboration between these two felt like a myth that would never come to be. A lot of people disregard pop...
Chopin - Etude Op. 25 No. 12 (Ocean)
The last Etude of Chopin's original set of 24. This final Etude is interestingly reminiscent of the first in Op. 10, both heavily featuring arpeggios with the melody being placed underneath - perhaps this is why the nicknames of both are associated with rushing water (Waterfall/Ocean). Another i...

Billie Eilish - bury a friend (Piano Cover)
When we all fall asleep, where do we go? One of the lyrics of this song that best sums up Billie's music, dark and creepy, but ethereal. She herself gives the best description of this song, "'bury a friend' is literally from the perspective of the monster under my bed. If you put you...

Debussy - Reflets dans l'eau (Images)
Reflets dans l'eau - in English, "Reflections in the water", one of Debussy's most spectacular concert works, and one of the best examples of his structural marvel. Starting off his Images, this piece contains some of the most vivid imagery of water in the entire piano repertoire, yo...
Top 10 Most Difficult Piano Pieces
To my dedicated subscribers, this video is a little experiment! Recently, YouTube has been pushing down classical music and this format seems to be what is being recommended by the algorithm. Although recognizable, the pieces in this compilation aren't actually the most difficult - but I've ...
Havana x Señorita - Camila Cabello x Shawn Mendes (Piano Cover)
Who would've thought these two songs go so well together? The mashup opportunities with latin montunos are endless! Even two years later Havana feels like one of the most unique pop songs of recent times, with Señorita being a worthy follow up. There is just something so exciting about latin mu...
Vivaldi - Summer 3rd Mvt (The Four Seasons)
Vivaldi. The Four Seasons. Summer. Presto. I often see people comparing Vivaldi's music to metal, and this is perhaps the best example of that as the raw power Vivaldi captured in this iconic movement is unparalleled. In the accompanying sonnet, there is imagery of a thunderstorm and it's ha...
