At my old high school we had a blind kid who would get to school early in the morning and play the piano in the auditorium. (It wasn’t really allowed but the music teacher didn’t say anything and let it happen every day because she heard him play) we planned a “surprise” for him and about 75 of us were sitting in the auditorium silent as can be so he didn’t know we were there (he assumed nobody at school knew he could play the piano) and he played Duel of the Fates and it was almost as FLAWLESS as your performance. All of us were jaw dropped and when he finished we all were applauding and yelling and it scared him pretty bad and he started crying. His words were “playing is the only thing that makes me feel like I still have my sight” he’s currently going to UC Berkeley in California for music! Hopefully we will have another Stevie Wonder in a few years ❤️

“He... is the chosen one. He will bring balance to the piano” To John Williams: “Train the boy”

As a piano player myself, I have only one question... "Is it possible to learn this power?"

Its funny that Duel of the Fates is such a high energy piece that it generates hype all on its own but on the piano it almost sounds sad at times. Like its tell a tale of tragedy or fall from grace.

It's over Anakin, Patrik has the high ground.

Anakin: And it's possible to learn this song? Palpatine: Not from a human.

for the people that don't play the piano and watch this guy play, i don't think you understand how hard this song is and how freaking good a piano player this guy is

And here we have General Grievous playing the piano.

Duel of the Fates is probably one of the best cinematic scores ever.

It’s like each hand has its own personality

This song has more emotion than the entire sequel trilogy.

“May the chords be with you”

Duel of the Fates is a MASTERPIECE

I love how one side is blue (light), and the other is red (dark). Then, in the middle, is purple (balance). Artfully done ✅

George: “alright John gimme a cool song for a cool fight” John: creates an anthem more powerful than any Jedi could dream to be* “this good?”

Pick mode: Easy Medium Hard *general grievous*

It's actually really easy to play If you have, like, five hands, give or take a few fingers

Me trying to learn all the Star Wars songs: aye this ain’t to hard Finds this one: oh shit

"That sounded really good." "It did, didn't it? ... It did, didn't it." "You're ok?" "IT DID DIDN'T IT ... IT DID DIDN'T IT ...IT DID DIDN'T IT ...IT DID DIDN'T IT ..."

The Force is strong with this one.

You know I’ve been going to piano classes for a while now and I swear one day I’ll play this song exactly like he does and will attach a link. Like this comment every once in a while so that I don’t forget

That was the best piano version of this song I've ever heard!

The force is strong with this one...

the midi chordians are higher than ever recorded

My mum came into my room and said - oh I didn't know you listened to classical music I just looked at her and said - yes, classical music

"The Dark Side of The Force is a pathway to many abilities, some considered to be.. unnatural."

“You are in this orchestra, but we do not grant you the rank of master pianist.”

Masterpiece I can't stop listening, GREAT WORK 👇Those who agree

Imagine if real pianos started GLOWING like this when people were nailing notes but didn’t glow if you were playing a song wrong... then you see Patrik playing in public one day and the piano is just sparkling

When the two smart kids have different answers:

Anyone else watch these videos and just imagine themselves playing it in front of their class?

I supposed to be doing homework rn, but I'm watching patrik. Should probably get back to homework. :)

Earlier this morning, I was looking for duel of the fates, then I see this one by notification🤯 My brain blows up at the first notes as usual☕️👌🏽

“Is it possible to learn this power” “Not from a piano Jedi”

Lord Patrick! Teach me the ways of pianist. I shall not fail you master!!!

That's actually incredibly impressive. The sheer number of notes at once

On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your hand-eye coordination? Patrick: Yes.

Everyone making references to Anakin vs Obi-Wan but lets not forget my man Qui-Gon

Who would even dislike this?! Duel of the fates is a piece of art with so much detail, and this man right here is amazing.

Songwritter: a piano master cannot learn this power.. General Grievious:can a cyber-human synthesizer master learn it? Songwritter: where did you get your four arms? G. Grivevious: being piano master was bored

*The force is strong in this one.*

Songwriter: This is a two person job. Each using both arms required. I mean Who can SOLO? General Grievous: Hold my lightsabers

Patrick, I really love your playing. You play the piano with your soul. You are a great piano artist. You are underrated.

Just bought the sheet music, and holy crap this is way harder than it looks

- Scared Potter? - You wish! wait wrong movie

The forte is strong with this one.

This video: gets 69k likes Everyone: "he will bring balance to the force."

I keep coming back to this arrangement over and over because it is so masterfully done. Your skill combined with John Williams’ genius composition is simply awe inspiring. Wish we had more composers like him making pieces for films.

How much of the duel of the fates can you play? Patrick: yes

This is an amazing arrangement, just as usual.

This was by far the best piece of music in all of the Star Wars soundtracks. Change my mind

Train the boy, he is the chosen one. Patrik is the chosen one, he will bring balance to the force, he will bring peace to the galaxy.

Remember a jedi can feel the force flowing through him. You mean it controls your actions? Partially, but it also obeys your commands.

Holy shit. I knew the piano was a stand alone instrument but my god this really shows it. One pair of hands made a damn fine version of a Star Wars orchestra and choir piece! Respect. And maybe get some ice on those hands from time to time lol

Every single day this shows up in my recommended, and yet every day I come back to listen.

i can't stop listening to this

3:34 is of the best piano moments ever

Me: sees like to dislike ratio Me: I love democracy

The left hand accompaniment is just astonishing. I would never be able to play it so masterfully. Well done!

I am a big star wars fan and I love listening to star wars theme song's and this is awesome

"Eh I'll check it out for a few seconds" *Five minutes and seven seconds later "JESUS CHRIST"

Entire orchestra: **plays duel of the fates One man with a piano: *aha no*

"My allegiance is to the republic... TO DEMOCRACY!"

I can’t tell you how happy this makes me.

Ladies and gentlemen, the KZfaq algorithm has brought us together again.

i dont think john williams has ever made a bad score i his career, absolute genius

the ruler of chords, the King of rythem, the emperor of melody and the owner of the brilliant hands that plays the piano, "emperor patrick"

Its like the spiraling notes falling down is a whole epic intense battle of its own.

*Its over Anakin, I have the H I G H N O T E S*

The 307 people who hit dislike were supposed to hit like But they have stromtrooper aim

I watch the full videos that you make!! Because I like Star wars!

May the MUSIC 🎵 be with you

He uses the force to influence his hands with such precision to create Music.

-People: You can't play duel of the fates with just two hands! -Patrik Pietschmann: Hold my lightsaber!

Like halfway through my brain switched to "this is halloween" and now star wars will never be the same.

This is the greatest I've ever witnessed.

Somehow this seems even more epic than the original. I didn’t think that was even possible.

Nobody: Patrik pietschmann in my recommended: *Hello there*

"A surprise to sure, but a welcome one." What a clever technique, you managed to pull it off very well.

This was awesome. I don't know anything about piano, but this looked very difficult

Patrik!!! You ARE the entire symphony!!! My brain is on fire! Simply amazing....your play is masterful, quick, fluid, dexterous and very emotional! Loved your arrangement and attack on the keys. Loved the thundering bass line and your crossover work is great to watch, too. You just don't miss a beat and even John Williams himself would give you a nod! Your channel is so fantastic! BRAVO! ~Jackie

Me:What's your favorite sport Friends: BaseBall, Basketball etc. What about you? Me: Pod Racing

You made me feel what ever single starwars movie couldnt thank you.

I love how this has blue way at the end, and red at the other end. And in the middle, purple.

I cant even imagine having skill like this. Bloody amazing. The visuals were beautiful as well.

"Hmmm, the Patrik Pietschmann upload i see, the like i must." - Yoda

This should straight up be the theme song for the upcoming Obi Wan series. Beautiful job.

I play this on my guitars and my recorder/flute. It's one of my favorite songs to play. Now I need to lean piano. Thanks. You earned a subscriber.

0:37 Left Hand: Here let me help you out, right hand

“I have an army.” “We have the force.”

Thanks grievous! Now I know how to play this! Like deserved.

Chilling. Gave me goosebumps.

It’s over, he has the high notes

The sheer skill of this guy is insane

it is really impressive the piano and especially when it is you who makes it I love the piano

This performance brought a tear to my eye so beautiful and mesmerising in so many ways thank you Darth pianist

I have never seen anyone with this hand eye coordination and hand speed.

if you watch the video its like how does he catch those note so perfectly when they fall on the keyboard.. then you remember its him playing and the notes are placed of his keystrokes and not the other tway around... the playing magnificent btw

at 4:13 i was like: this has gotta to be over by now... patrik: *nope*

love the red and blue note colours to represent the dark and light sides
