_"Just practising my fingering"_ eh? That'll be VERY useful later on, believe me.

Were your rushing or were you dragging?

"Complex harmonies like this, ugly" WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN THAT'S LIKE THE FUNDAMENTAL OF JAZZ

"I was just practising my fingering"😂😂😂😂😳

For crying out loud people ! Its not about the boy learning a simple melody in a short time. Its about Synesthesia...the ability to see music as colors and the beauty it provides him. He sees (hears) music (colors) everywhere he looks. Such a beautiful gift !

All music is math. Math never changes. It just waits to be discovered. So does Music.

So basically when she said the ratio of the frequency of various keys he memorised the ratio at which she was playing and he played the same exact ratio and make her believe he was a genius piano player.... smart boy

asa is precious

"i was just practising my fingering"................i just fucking died haha...

Bruh covid is getting to me, I just saw him talking to that lady in the booth without a mask and thought it was strange

That girl is genuinely smitten with him, and it's beautifully evident in the way she gazes at him with admiration and affection. He's truly fortunate to have captured her heart.

Remember when he was Hugo? Do you feel old now?

The biggest connection between music and math for me has been the beauty. I try to create that every time I solve a math problem just as if I was playing a piece of music.

For those questioning the music used, the first part is technically just BVW 846 _Prelude No. 1 in C Major_ from Johann Sebastian Bach's _The Well-Tempered Clavier_ (which was a compilation of music Bach wrote for the clavier, one of the predecessors of today's pianoforte). However, once the piano playing scene is over and the synaesthesia scene begins, the music transitions to Charles Gounod's _Méditation sur le Premier Prélude de Piano de S. Bach_ which was simply a slight rearrangement of Bach's _Prelude No. 1 in C Major_ overlaid with a melody for the _Ave Maria_ prayer. In a sense, one could say that both scenes use the Gounod _Ave Maria_ because the measures played during the piano scene are the same in both (the change occurs once the melody is introduced in Gounod's work), though it is indeed more accurate on a technical level to say that the first piece is just Bach's work.

No way No way This clip JUST motivated me to carry on with positive beliefs ...... No negative content . Thank you Dear creator......🤗

I have seen ASA BUTTERFIELD in several movies over the years. He has reached the level of professional actors, even though he is just a lad. I wish him luck and hopes he may one day receive an Academy Award.

"I was just practicing my fingering" I'm sorry... I'll leave

I love the way she explained it like with the beautiful and ugly thing it was very well put

for all you Will Stockdales in the comments ... the movie name is *_X+Y_* a British film (2014), released in the US as *_A Brilliant Young Mind_* Just like the title says

+Misbhavn has solved it for us... the song is Bach's Prelude 1 in C Major BWV 846 from the Well-Tempered Clavier.

I’m surprised they didn’t have a violin playing loud while playing the piano

Music snobs aside, the point of the scene is that she realizes he's special.

As a musician, when she played a Hamonic minor 2nd and said it was complex harmony, it made me chuckle. Anyway keep practicing your fingering for Bach's prelude 1 in c maj

Yes, loved this film... thanks for the reminder Bradley...

Bach's Prelude in C major is the only one I can manage. Most of the others are too complex. But playing it after hearing it only once is amazing!

I've never seen this movie, or heard of it for that matter... But after watching a couple if clips from it, I know it's something I'd like to see now

Beautiful

When I was a child, mom thought I was crazy or a liar when I told her I saw colors and flashes of light whenever we would go to concerts. It took a few doctors’ visits to find out this was what I “had.”

Me encanta esa parte.😭😭👏

0:14 *I was just practicing my fingering* *ok...*

+Katie Chan is also right, the "orchestral" part is definitely Ave Maria by Bach/Gounod. Technically, the piano solo bit at the beginning is Prelude 1 in C Major (BWV 846) by Bach.

introverts are realy feeling this deep, this is genius

So he figures out music and that makes him see music everywhere. Cool

sweatheart get a metronome

Great film 🎥!!!!

All of creation is math. Not just music. All can be reduce to an elemental force that is determined by a mathematical existence. Gluon, Muon, atom, molecules, compounds. Even light. The expanse of space itself. Our thoughts, breaths and existence (past, current, future, probabilities) are streams of constant variables of mathematical derivatives.

"im practicing my fingering....." HEY LMAO

I fell in love with a beautiful soul, when she played the piano I felt as if the world slowed down the aura of the room warm up and I felt all my stress disappear.. that’s when I fell in love with the piano. It’s been a year since we broke up, I want to play for her now even if it’s for a moment so she can see how her playing influenced my view of life. Wherever you are morgan I hope life is treating you well and that your love for the piano didn’t die out.

brilliant scene. Thanks a lot

Bach is the brilliance here.

Piękne ...

All music is math, and all universe is a grand symphony, a dance of colours of music...🎵🎶🌎😍

Amazing

when she started playing, i got chills, RED JOHN !!! (mentalist)

I've been looking for this for so long! Thank you!

Realty: The teacher screams at you to get out of the room during break time; never plays again.

this scene is so pretty

It was a beautiful film.

I just watched this movie because of Asa butterfild. But now it is my favorite movie. And i love this scene ❣

I wish I could learn to play that fast. I already know how to play piano, I love it but it takes me at least an hour to perfect a new song or else I will not be satisfied with the sloppy work. I am very strict on myself but that was how I was raised to play piano and violin, I will not let anyone here me and I will not stop playing the same song until I have mastered it.

I remembered him was in "let me in" Movies, 😭, damn time flies

I like her voice n smile

I love this scene, but I disagree with her on 0:53. I think this complex harmony is beautiful too. It's used a lot in blues/jazz, intentionally for it's dissonance. And with a swing rythm, with dominant seventh chords, it can be really beautiful too. I think that in a tuned piano, all harmonies can be beautiful. Nathan's mind is not only beautiful for it's harmonically simple harmonies (his grasp of Math) but for it's harmonically complex harmonies too (his relationship with the outside world).

I actually have huge crush on asa though 😂

bestest melody

Brilliant

The girl’s tempo was awful someone show her what a metronome is...

Mathematics = MUSIC !!!

Nice video, thanks :)

It's an awesome movie.

Brilliant young actor Asa Butterfield !

When you the only one who thinks of Reid from criminal minds when they see the piano scene:🌚

Wow different!

Uhhh goosebumps

**warning, long post, but worth the read** EXCELLENT! Finally!!!!……a realistic show that the simplest explanation for a theory everyone seems so confused about. All music is math, all math is colours, shapes, sounds, and brilliant expressions of the human psyche, and in turn, the worlds simplest, yet most misunderstood, and uniquely international language. Almost every professional musician will tell you music boils down to mathematical timing, and every mathematician will tell you math is the basis of all musical forms. It is, and forever will remain, the one true language, and despite whatever language you speak, is understandable by everyone, breaking down all barriers, a thing to be enjoyed, and understood by all. Remember the movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”? That is the perfect example of what I’m trying to communicate to you. Albeit Hollywood, whomever wrote the script understood this theory well, so well they were able to demonstrate it in a way even the average person could understand. I’m only an amateur musician, and at 52, I doubt I’ll get beyond that, but I do know something a surprising number of people don’t…that all music is pure math. I’m sure you all remember being either confused, bewildered, perhaps bored to tears in grade school math class. It wasn’t until my grade 1 music teacher told me that math is a beautiful language. A means of deep personal expression, filled with passion, emotion, and a form of communication that crosses all barriers. I never forgot that, and as I broadened my understanding of mathematics, I did with music equally. I’ve never actually seen the movie this excerpt was taken from (I’ll definitely have to watch it), but never have I seen what I’ve believed all my life, put so simply. Thank you for posting this, and for those whom don’t quite agree, or understand, the next time you happen upon a musical score, have a look at each bar, note the timing, key, and style it’s written in, and you’ll easily understand everything I’ve said is true. It’s the ultimate expression of humanities quest for understanding the universe around us, and it is so simply. Literally everything in life can be broken down into relatively simple mathematical formulas….and in turn, can be then interpreted within a musical composition. So few know that centuries ago, when many things were forbidden to talk openly about, they actually wrote musical scores to express new mathematical and scientific theories that would have not only been banned, but if spoken open in plain language, could have you not only had you arrested, but would have ended by put to death….true fact, ESPECIALLY during mid evil times, and the renaissance period. As a part of my university years, I was given the opportunity to write a thesis for my psychology class, on this very topic. It’s absolutely astonishing as I researched further and further. Such a brilliant concept, nearly lost now, to impatience, and, if you’ll forgive this, ignorance. It’s time we opened our eyes to the world around us, and the countless possibilities that await once this simple fact is widely understood and accepted. I took some of most complex mathematical formulas, and transposed them into musical scores, and I’d never once composed any music in my life prior to that. With the help of our universities top musical professor, I created a symphony, which I simply entitled “Einstein’s concerto”. I gave the score I had written, based solely on some of Einstein’s most popular formulas, to the professor, who was kind enough to get the universities orchestra to preform it, to a sold out concert (I ended up with over an hours worth of musical scores). After a private hearing, it was something I just knew the world had to hear, so he and I both decided, to make it a charity fundraiser, and give all monies earned to local schools mathematical and music programs. As I said, I’m 52, this was nearly 3 decades ago, and sadly, the recording I had on cassette tape is now so degraded, it won’t play. The scores I wrote were apparently “lost” by the music professor. I only wish I had a copy for you to hear. You simply would not believe the beautiful, complex harmonies, the passion, and raw emotion, this music evoked, all thanks to math.

I want this kid to be my best friend

Where can i find the Gounod Ave Maria that sound just like in this video. I was looking for it every where but can't find it

Great actor...

At least with Bach there exists an ending chord structure. inpiration for YES songs of 70s

"All music is meths" Me: hol' up, yoo sober for this right now

Great film

Music resonates on a fix pattern or sequence just like we have in mathematics.. the world is symmetrical..

“I was just practicing my fingering...” *crickets intensifies*

0:09 Step bro walks in on step sis

Onde consigo assistir esse filme dublado para português?

Et was bang on mate

Math and music are indeed a fascinating pairing. For those who agree, you cannot find this expressed more eloquently than in the book GODEL ESCHER AND BACH : An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas R Hofstadter. It will cause your mind to soar.

"All music is math." It's funny because there's this genre called Math Rock now.

movie name :A Brilliant Young Mind

Feels like August Rush!!!

So much cancer with "i was just practicing my fingering LMAO hahahahaha" comments

he's really cute

0:13 just practicing my finger 😋😋 i can clearly see your practicing your right hand's fingers. . Cant belive YT just recommended me this scene after how many yrs darn it. .

Whats the background music?

Simplicity of ratio gives consonance, not beauty. Some of the most beautiful pieces have made their fame by executing fantastic interplays between consonance and dissonance. Dissonance wants to resolve, and that adds movement and melodic interest to the piece.

do you have full movie? A Brilliant Young Mind?

Great movie

I've just searched the internet for ages but can't find the song name anywhere.. Watched the film last night, so good! I really want to learn this song on the piano :)

All music is maths "well ima head out now"

I need to see this movie.

Thanks

You can sometimes experience synesthesia while tripping on DMT (mushrooms, smoked DMT, ect.). Probably with other psychedelics too but DMT is super safe.. Once on a mushroom trip I heard a tone - like of like a "Shheeeen!" - and saw a colorful light streak across my field of view when I heard the sound. Stuff like that. Pretty neat.

Pay attention to the tempo bish

*THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL MOVIE...I FUCKIN FEEL IT :"))*

The only way you can learn anything from it's possible outcomes is just paying attention to your surroundings. Most people will get distracted from their learning and it's possibly the aspects on how we see the world today. We have all this technology and all that distracts the human mind from it's process of learning. Just a key in life is to learn the possible way of just hearing one another and share a connection as human beings shall do. Nothing less or nothing more will acquire you to learn something new and you shall stick with it.

"Practising my... what?"

Comment section as a percentage: 100%: "I was practising my fingering lolol"

Colors seen as music. My supervisor at the U.S. Coast Guard, Susan Boyle, had this unique ability to perceive music in colors, or was it colors in music. I cannot recall but I believe it was music in colors.

“I was just practicing my fingering” (smiles) *oof*
