The accuracy and musicality of your leaps and jumps on the piano are better than those generated by any computer. Best of all, you are playing happy music. Happy music is coming back. We need it more now than ever!

Hakuna Matata? Yeah. It's our motto! What's a motto? Nothing. What's a-motto with you?

A common phrase used around where I come from to describe how good a musician is “you made that thing talk”, well you certainly did! Great job

Never stop playing! My favourite Disney movie being played by my favourite KZfaq musician. Day has been made! 😊🤩

Disney, Lion King, Ragtime Piano! What's not to love? Thanks Kristen for giving me something new and fun to practice!

The thought hit me as I was here reclining, Enjoying the music as Kristen's hands were flying That I must be a king, fer At the touch of my finger, I command the epic concert At my discretion and leisure. I don't need to travel by car or by train, No charge for admission, no delay from the rain, No need to find parking or rent a hotel, No waiting in line, no unfamiliar smells. I don't even need to verbalize a single command; Just a click of my mouse or a tap of my hand And suddenly this performance is filling my ears alone By means of my personal noise cancelling headphones. Why am I so honored to have this experience? I must be a king... or at least a prince. :) And if I be royalty, then with all my prestige, The applause that I offer might be what Kristen needs. Oh, but maybe she didn't hear me when I did that before... I can do it again: *clap clap clap* Bravo! Encore! (What's really cool is not a flinch from her is required For me to enjoy a replay of what just transpired. :D ) Alright; I'd better stop awing about what the internet brings, But I don't ever want to stop being grateful for all my blessings. Thank you, Kristen, for sharing this vid I've just seen! You deserve stanning fans who non-cringily say "Yaaasss Queen!"

Been waiting for this one!! And you blew it out of the water!! Great job!!

I don’t know how/why it took me song long to find your channel but no words can describe how good you are at piano, you’re truly a once in a lifetime talent!

Good to hear some music that makes me feel happy in these troubled times and so well played ❤️

The Lion King has a lot of good music. I like the pairing of these 2 upbeat and bright songs.

Fantastic! You're the princess of Ragtime! :)

I imagine a black-and-white silent movie version of the Lion King, the characters speaking in the form of title cards, with this playing in the background.

Your music and renditions always make for a wonderful start of the day, nice work

It takes skill to make some pieces sound good as ragtime covers. And to be fair you smash it with these!

You ought to be thankful and proud of every hour you've spent learning and practicing the piano. Well Done!!!

I have no words!!! Except....INCREDIBLE !!!

WOW that was PHENOMENAL WOW absolutely FANTASTIC. Mind Blown

Simply Amazing! I just cant stop watching those hands bounce around!

As time passes by, a soulful layer of uplifting maturity enhances your already perfect technique. I hope you´re loving your music as much or more than we do. All the absolute very best in unfolding into whatever direction you want to go.

Seriously jealous of how you can play so fantastically just absolutely fabulous

That was awesome! One of my favourites yet!

Im gonna buy the sheets for this one for sure 💕 This is my favorit part of the lion king when they wander off 🙂

Beautiful!! ☘️☺️❤️🎹🙏

Fantastic.

Excellent, more, more, more!

Beautiful!

Amazing! Great job!

Great job, really amazing.

Fantastic! I love ragtime music, I love covers of modern songs in old-fashioned styles, and I love Disney, so this was perfect! It really sounded like something that could have been composed and played in the early 1900s.

I've been playing piano since I wad a child. I'm 38 now & I've played professionally (mostly studio) with some pretty big names. I've met, heard, & played beside some of the best musicians in the business & I'm telling you now, that's pure talent &better than a VAST MAJORITY of players I've come across. I too play with no sheet music, & to find someone that plays@ your level without it always makes me smile. Keep it up, you're amazing at what you do. 👏👏

Wow, that was AMAZING!! 🦁 U r soo incredibly talented!! God bless!

So well done Kristen!! Very satisfying to listen to!! Love The Lion King 💙

Awesome effort!!! You deserve a big round of applause! Not only when real instrumental sounds come at their best they're way better than computer kinds, but you mixed the two most go-lucky songs in the Lion King in one grand song! Keep up your amazing attitude and interpretation of these masterpieces!!!

Looking great and sounding great! Hope you’re enjoying the summer.

This is jaw dropping

Beautiful performance. Bravo! 👏 👏 👏

Me encanta tu arte que nos regalas!!!... 👍👍

So great! Love your style and your talent!

Once again you have done it! So talented.

Wow! You are AWESOME! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful

Sounds so great! Love the left hand method.

I just love your music.

Brilliant performance. Love it!

She’s back!!

I very much enjoyed this rag!

Really! There are other versions of hakuna matata ragtime/jazz piano on youtube, but you really got a great feel and dynamics in your playing! Joy to listen.

Great music!

This is awesome!

I wish I could come home to this

Really amazing wish I could play like that

This was SENSATIONAL! (bit of a Lion King fan here...) I feel like you really pushed your own limits higher with this song, everything was perfect, it looked absolutely epic and was magic to listen to! Thanks for uploading ;)

As someone who is just picking up the piano at nearly age 40 (been playing the guitar for 25+ years), I find your playing impressive and inspiring. Keep it up!

You're wonderful!) Good job

Awesome!

AMAZING!!!

Very cool!!!

Awesome! I love your performance!

Você é animada !!! Gosto muito disso .

You’re the best! Greetings from London, England.

Great performance! You don’t just play the music, you feel it!, so it has a lot of personality! Thanks for the upload

Your disney covers make me happy ! And you are really good :)

I really love your arrangement of Ragtime with all your tunes. I don't know what your age is but you have a real gift and I get great enjoyment from watching your music. Keep on keeping on Kerstin!

Amazing job! Keep up the good work!

*bows down to the piano goddess*

Never clicked on a video so fast

Love it!

I would love to see you playing on the ragtime piano in Disneyland! I've seen other youtube videos of pianists that volunteer to go up for a song. I think your play style fits in perfectly. Keep up the great work!

Paper cut: you’re not playing for a while Kristen: Hakuna matata!

Kristen is the greatest.

Sweet! Great stuff!

This is so entertainingto hear becuse it brings me back to my childhood the and rhytm is so spot on, not unlikely others do, thank you :)
