/ Finally my next recording! An advanced piano piece composed for the movie "While I live" by Charles Williams. I played it on a grand piano in front of some listeners some time ago and the people loved it, so it was time to upload a recording here on YT. As you now me it's like ever a bit my own interpretation but pretty close to the original.
I used a new dynamic setting for the piano (Pearl concert grand) this time and I really like it.
Enjoy listening!
Just to write to say thank you. My brother was a pianist and sadly died 3 months ago. He used to play this beautifully. It was our mother's favourite piece. In tears , but wonderful memories. Thank-you, played so beautifully.
IT'S FUNNY HOW THE FILM DOESN'T HAVE AN IMPRESSION,BUT A PIECE OF MUSIC FROM THE FILM, STAYS WITH YOU FOREVER!!!!
My grandmother's funeral was two days ago and we had this played at the service as this was one of her favourite pieces of music. She liked it so much she gave my mum the middle name Olwen. RIP Nina xx
My favorite piece to play on my piano.🥰❤️🥰
My most favorite song to play on my piano❤
What a lovely performance of one of my favorites. My mother used to play The a Dream of Olwen when I was young, and I’ve never heard anyone really play it with such feeling until now. Very nice.
This is a splendid piece of music. And very nicely played.
Brings me to tears within the first bar - reminds me so much of my Dad who loved these classics
My mother was young (11) when this movie was released. One could go into the cinema when the movie had already began and stay to watch what one had missed. My mother told me that not only did she see the movie several times that first time but she kept going back to see it because of the music. She could play the first 30 seconds just by having heard it. It reminds me of her.
Not sure why I thought of this, but I’m enjoying it now I have
My dad used to play this for me when I was a child. I'm no 69yrs old and have just found it again ❤️
No idea why this piece invokes such emotion in me but it does my brother used to play it but i watched the movie as a child and this score was so beautiful still is …. Thankyou ❤
My mama’s name was Olwen. Dad knew of this song when he met her & floored her when he played it for her. He would thunder out a melody with the left hand & then somehow manage to fill in magnificently with the right hand. My folks’ marriage was one long love song, sung back & forth to each other for sixty years. I am missing them fiercely!- but find comfort in the hope of seeing them again when earth is made anew & Yahusha restores our broken world. Meanwhile, hearing your rendition of a treasured tune really helps! Thank you!

Wowwww👏👏👏👏🙏
Beautiful expression. Outstanding. Thankyou, John (Australia)
Lovely sensitive playing. Your digital piano setting sounds exactly like an acoustic grand.
Beautiful piece. My Dad used to play this ❤
Delightful to the ear. Played at the right tempo.🙂
I heard this piece of music for the first time when I was only 11 years old and after 38 years I still love it!!!
Beautiful performance!!! Thank you very much!!!
My mother's favourite peice, she used to play to us when we visited.
Was her exit music out the church to the grave when she passed.
One of my favourite pieces of music ever
Same here my heart melts when I hear it it's so soothing
Wow.❤
Lovely cover of this underrated piece of music from the movies......
Beautiful interpretation!
Just SO beautiful, I cried!!! Absolutely THE best!!!
Sure brings back memories of 'Dining with Pledger Hour' in San Jose.
I never get tired hearing you play the Dream of Olwen!
At last i have found this after many years. One of Scotlands greatest comedians plays this in his final performance. Josie (Rikki Fulton) of Francie (Jack Milroy) and Josie.
My favourite piano music ...awesome
Superb!
Stellar performance, Steven....you are a virtuoso pianist. On a concert stage is where you belong, my friend. Huge applause!
Beautiful..wish I cd play piano like you!
My sister’s piece when we were young... too beautiful to be forgotten... I in love the way you play it, your version 👏
Lovely!
Thank you so much for that
Just beautiful x
Beautifully played! This is one of my favorite pieces.
The best version! Simply beautiful.
Beautiful! My sister’s piece many many years ago when we were young. She has forgotten about it. I haven’t... because I fell in love with this beautiful piece! 👏😍
Lovely performance!
Thank you
Não me canso de ouvir ....... Me vejo tocando.. . ....❤...
Desde pequeninha tinha aulas de piano . Diárias.......
Ñáo gostava de estudos , Bach r essas coisas . Queria tocar lindas peças . .. °•°•°•°!-
This is the way my Mum used to play this piece, and I have tried to copy her style. I prefer this over faster versions any day! Thank you for stirring beautiful memories...
My mother played this too, very much in the same style. My very favorite piece since I was a little boy.
@@TDBLAS I love all the old style music, as it evokes so much emotion... Feels like a romantic period in time to escape to.
Anita Ng Completely agree!
@@anitang6867 It not only evokes emotion, but it has class! Much of modern music is just noise totally devoid of class.
You can say thst again.
Beautiful interpretation. Nicely played.
great piece
A very nice rendition...well played.
brilliant!
Very nice song ;-)
Very well done ;-)
Bravo my friend for this very great work ;-)
Best wishes,
Alain
WONDERFULL PIECE OF MUSIC
Very nice performance. Well done!
👏👏👏👏
And this on a electric piano? Wow!
c'est un régal de vous voir jouer c'est superbe cette mélodie !!!
Thank you it is just right in my mind and playful and huge uplifting...I had goose bumps in time you play ..
Thank you: beautiful!
You are my favourite pianist
Thanks! It means a lot to me!
THIS IS MOST BEAUTIFUL RENDITION OF THIS PIANO COCERTTOO I HAVE EVER HEARD BRAVO
Excellent ...nice touch, pretty near perfect. I read that Dream of Olwen is from Once in the Country, but documents say it is from 'While I Live'.
It's from the Film While I Live. It's a great film, when British Film Industry made good films.
Beautifully played!!! I absolutely love it!
I can play Charles Williams' Theme From The Apartment.
I plan on learning this beautiful piece soon. I hope I can learn to play it as well as you.
bonito
Steven, are you somehow related to Emily Bear? I ask this because you are just as good as her! Also, are you ever going to make a book filled with your piano covers, because every one I've seen has sounded outstanding! Would definitely be a book I'd buy from you!
I have goosebumps

Hi Steven, I loved this so much I just bought your book with you music. Is it possible to get the sheet music for "The Dream of Olwen" as you have played it? Thanks again.
Hello! May I know if you could possibly share the sheet music for the final part of the song that you improvised/played here? :)
I would love to learn it!
What piano or keyboard is this? I would love to know. Thanks for sharing
I have the original music sheet. Is it possible to buy your arrangement? Please let me know how to order and pay for it.
Hi, please , can i make that same sound on a kawai mp7se piano?
I remember I had hard time playing this piece because of my short fingers... i had to stretch it more.
It has always been my favorite and my Dad’s
What program do you use to record your piano?
I used Cubase LE and there a VST plugin of Pearl Concert Grand.
