Smh this sounded better in the manga

1:00 this is the moment where kaori realises, what kousei felt for her, she instandly new that this image he had in mind was about her in that clubroom, and that hes indirectly telling her, that hes in love with her, so sad they never talked about their love for each other, it had to be that damn letter where she was already in heaven...

leave it to Chopin to make something dissonant sound beautiful

“Spring will be here soon. Spring, the season I met you, is coming. A spring without you... ...is coming.”

I cried so bad when i watched the last episode...

I didn’t write this piece for this tempo.. it should be faster

3 years ago an anime made me a pianist today

an april without you again

fell in love with this piece when watching this anime. five years later it is my audition piece for college. cheesy to say a show changed my life but it’s true. edit: played the middle section for my audition (college only allowed three minute pieces) and i just heard back from them. i got in! it has been my dream school since i became serious about the piano. :)

I'm almost always a manga purist, but YLiA is a rare case where I just don't think any other medium can capture the beauty of the music and the story like the anime did. A story like this demands a level of auditory engagement I think, and anime is so stylistically tailored for this with its heavy use of inner monologue, montage, animated mise-en-scene, and, of course, sound design. Hearing the actual changes in Arima's style is so much more effective than just reading other characters state that it changed or dealing with a more rushed pace in a 2 hour film. With anime, each entire tune and sequence gets to fully play out and have a more significant effect. Not to mention how miraculous the actual piano performances are by the real musicians. They went all out with this anime, and I don't believe any other adaptation could ever touch this. It's a masterpiece.

this is the best interpretation i’ve ever heard. shout out to the actual pianist behind this i wish i knew their name. the way they played 1:12-1:15 is just indescribable. you can hear that subtle melody so loudly that u NEVER hear in any other interpretation ever. the slow part was a little slower but not to a fault. they really gave character to every single note. just amazing.

What a madlad he's closing his eyes in the recapitulation

I never appreciated the beauty of this étude until watching this anime. Now, it’s my favourite étude and one of my favourite chopin pieces.

It's april, and it's time for me to hurt myself by watching this masterpiece yet again.... “a spring without you”:)))

I dont know why they showed the paganini 24 sheet instead of what he s playing

Wish i could play this

SPOILER * She was crying because she realized the person she loved also loved her but she knew she will never be with him. This scene adds a whole now level after finishing the anime

It’s almost time to watch this masterpiece again

Took me forever to find this because I didn't know what it was called. So beautiful it made me cry.

Quick Story I had a crush on a girl who plays the piano in my class (pretty mediocre playing ngl) so one day i decided to become a pianist to try and and *cough * impress her- anyway i got rejected brutally before i even had a chance to play for her once, ive been depressed since then, but i think i found myself in the piano. i practice 3-4 hours everyday to try and make myself notable, i wish someone would see me once and appreciate my efforts. this piece is the piece i aspired to learn back when i started to learn piano, i didnt understand the wrong notes and thought it was a good melody hindered by the wrong notes- now i understand this piece, the bittersweetness i feel when listening to this, i understand what chopin meant. welp thanks for reading have a nice time

Most better without the voices. Only the music and images are enough.

It's wrong.... But its right!

Idk how can something sound so wrong yet so beautiful

I'm crying again,Please our tears reach to her.Tears become lake,lake become sea...And seas are become Oceans.A ocean when we memorialized you dear Kaori.You aren't just a anime character.You are our missing part,You are in our heart's deepest where...

Even though I watched this a long time ago it still gives me shivers

still the best episode

this is not what i want..i wanna hear the duo this and violin, thats what gave out the amazing goosebumps

None of these songs ever fail to bring me chills.

The musicians that recorded for this anime are actually geniuses. The pianist makes this etude sound so fresh, like it was composed specifically for this scene

Your lie in april 🥺 has the most saddest and beautiful scenes in it which i can't never forget in my entire life

When I think of your lie in april I just think of few scenes This scene with kousei below blossom tree, kaori's first appearance in the anime, kaori and kousei first performance, kousei's POV of kaori in hospital bed looking at him Kaori playing violin on rooftop Kaori and kousei last performance and the last letter It's such a beautiful anime that stays in my head rent free since I watched it 3 years ago

Im glad i watched this show, i fell in love with it even before kaori passed out.. they will live in my heart💫

this anime..just helped me,now im learning piano,it helped me discover who im really am

Let's appreciate the pianist who recorded this being in the zone

It’s literally impossible for me to hear any music from this anime without instantly crying. I thought after 5 years that would be different but no. Instant water works.

Chopin is the type of guy who plays wrongly but turns out to be a masterpiece

選曲が神すぎる

this show is so beautiful

My favorite etude and probably piece in general

0:08 well, that's etude no. 4 opus 25

Es hermoso... una obra de arte... nada que tenga que ver con este anime puedo escuchar o ver sin que se me cierre la garganta de la emoción ... es que es imposible ... la melodía de la mano con la historia es mágica, creo que esa es la palabra.

dude i wish i had watched this anime after i got into classical music so i could appreciate it a lot more...

This makes me feel a certain way about life that I can’t explain

Just because of this piece I've watched this whole anime like 20 times

I know it’s not in this video but I really love the violin that plays in the background in the actual episode at the end of the song

２５－５めっちゃ好き

No entiendo como un anime te hace sentir este dolor por cada música y por cada subida y bajada del piano, llevo 7 años tocando el piano y otros instrumentos pero nunca lo había sentido de esa manera, la emoción es enorme y te hace retroceder al pasado y regresar a sentir lo que es, cada momento de la alegre y triste vida de esos jóvenes de un simple anime, es asombroso, la música ya no la veo como un par de partituras o tocar como un metalero o alocarse en el piano, la veo como un sentimiento profundo, ya no es lo mismo si ves shigatsu wa kimi no uso.

This show is one of the best shows I've ever watched and yet, It changed my life

"so you play the wrong notes?" Chopin: yesn't

I was listening to all of Chopins music and I heard this one and immediately recognized it, I had to search it up to make sure it was actually the same one from your lie in April

*sigh* If only The Institute put this in their Classical Radio playlist, I would’ve joined them in a heartbeat 😌

Thank, thank u so much...

Next month is April and I have to rewatch this masterpiece

Manga readers: this was 100x better in the manga

Chopin-"onions" etude 69

Kaori didn’t confess to Kousei while she was alive because she knew what Tsubaki felt for Kousei and she wanted Tsubaki to have Kousei as she knew her self she didn’t have much time left. But at the end she couldn’t be hold her self and wrote a letter of confession to Kousei but unfortunately she was already in the gates of heaven when he read the letter. Quite unfortunate really.

The 'right person but wrong timing' hits.

This gives me goosebumps everytime

This anime made me buy a grand piano 😂

This anime made me love this piece ;-;

Raises my heart beats with goosebumps and relaxing

Bro this is bringng back so many memories ah he good old days.

Me, who thought this would include the string section from the show: "My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined..."

Just leave it Chopin to make a sour note sound so peaceful.

Been practicing this piece in Piano for almost 5 years and yet i still cant play this without Crying .... Goddamnit

After watching this anime, I didn't know who I was anymore or what I want to be. The world looked monotone to my eyes. This is the saddest anime ever. I wish Kaori didn't die so it would be a happy ending but know it's attached to my head.

I love music and I play guitar I wish I got into music much sooner, this anime and a bunch of videos on KZfaq make me want to learn piano since it can really sound amazing

진짜 이애니 내 인생에 손에 꼽을 정도로 좋다

Did it reach her ?

Still masterpiece....🖤!

I want to cry now

Ok wait. This made me laugh so hard. Great comedy dude/dudette 😂

公生イケメンすぎたろ

Man just thinking about this anime makes me tear up

Bruh. I don’t know how to describe this in word. It just to incredible

4 years ago an anime inspired me to be a pianist today

Sakata Tomoki made good intrepetation

It's so wrong yet it sounds right

bro this piece is so beautiful

Chopin outdid himself now

Trop beau et émouvant 😭😢

It's second year being into anime. So I'll take a tradition, to watch this anime and learning play compositions of it. One for year.

crazy how all the notes shown are correct

i keep crying whenever i hear this

Ehehe, I thought that my dude Kousei played a wrong note.

I started piano because of this anime xD

what a boy, he played that with his two eyes closed

1:30 my fav part

"did it reach her"

Another april here, I promise, I’ll here next year

Esta canción me hizo empezar con el piano,es simplemente un sentimiento indescriptible

Got chills watching this

it's funny that in 0:06, is not the sheet of this etude

Re: That time we didn’t hear what they were thinking anymore

Sound piano so beautiful❤😊

If Chopin didn't die in his young age maybe He created something extremely nice Piece

Damn he's so good man .....whoof I'm starting to get jealous of him.....wonder when will I be able to play piano like him

This peice sounds wrong enough to sound just right

my flex is that chopin is from my country

Do you know where to find the version with the violin and the cello in the background?
