well there is always someone 'better' than you, in terms of technique there will always be people that will exceed the boundaries of what is possible on piano with 2 hands, I find that they way you play a piece is very personal and one of a kind and is unique and cannot simply be 'bettered'.
This video and your interpretation means so such to me. It was actually one of the reasons I started playing a piano as I watched it 8 years ago. Now, after all those years, I can play it and this medley will always play essential role in my heart. Even now, after all these years and tons of compositions, I come here from time to time to fully enjoy nostalgic goosebumps. And eventhough you probably won´t read this, I wanted to thank you for this inspiration you brought to me ♥
I've read EVERY comment since my channel started. This is a beautiful comment and made my day, thanks for sharing your story with me and everyone else who may read it.
Oh, you think the darkness is your ally, but you merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding! The shadows betray you, because they belong to me. I will show you where I have made my home, whilst preparing to bring justice. Then, I will break you. Your precious armoury, gratefully accepted. We will need it. Ah yes, I was wondering what would break first. Your spirit, or your body.
Then suchlike as nobly he spewed his utmost out through melody. Successful. A voice in my generation tho, m..through music. Absurdly gifted. I wasn't rewritable since my youth! Whomever you are Sir, BRAVO....
i don't wanna be a hater or something,but this is a pretty simple arragement (and yes it is cool the simpliest things are the most effective aren't they? )every 5rd grade piano student can learn it just a bit slower he barely changes the notes ( i know i learn it right now).This arragements difficult is in its speed. So please don't compare him to Mozart. Mark is realy good a smooth pianist I admit it, But mozart? He was a genius. It is like compare your good guy high school physics teacher who also smart and knows a lot with Einstein. Ps I don't hate it I still like it just I don't like when people are naive,and credulous( i can't find the right word here ,english isn't my native language)
well yes i've done nothing that i can show to you about my "talent" ,my work.You have a channel with a lot of subscribers so probably you're the one who is right. And for second i should feel myself honored bc you answered my comment immediately and not complaining. ^^ sorry if i hurted your feelings
***** Hey, nice stuff! I'm curious, how much of this has sound editing? The variance in volume across hands sounds impressive. If that's the keyboard (and of course your touch), I should get one someday :) Also, are the violin-y sounds added later from the keyboard?
The only negative thing I have to say about this video is that it isn't longer. Beautifully played, absolutely mesmerizing. I have so much respect for you, Mr. Fowler, and you have inspired me to keep playing. Thank you.
This guy is making me a fan of piano music, this piece is simply amazing to my ignorant ears, looks like electrical arragments make this piece sound absolutly round... Go Mark!
that is the trailer music used for the Nokia trailer/clip, this piece is not featured ,for some very strange and annoying reason, on the soundtrack album, however it closely resembles 'Gotham's Reckoning' of course.
1:06 - 2:00 you transform this piece into it's own universe. This is beautiful, my mind and heart just burst with admiration whenever I listen to you play this!
UKpiano you are the pianist we deserve, but not the one we need right now. When all fail to make another DK sheet we will call upon you the true avenger the Yamaha Knight.
the one I play in this video is great, yamaha p-155, or you could get the more affordable p-105, but the touch/feel of the keyboard is half as good as the p-155, which is very important.
it was made for the Nokia trailer for the movie, more than likely a re-edit of Gotham's Reckoning, bit like he did for the third man of steel trailer, the track ended up being called 'An Ideal Of Hope' (a re-edit of What Are You Going To Do When You Are Not Saving The World?) but was never officially released (like the piece you are referring to in your comment, it too was never officially released on the album or any bonus tracks, and I still dont know why either, as its an amazing track.
my friend , I have played for years I have played by multiple sclerosis on my left side and a broken wrist on my right side and everytime that I play that I feel actually energetic inside and I must say your ability is absolutely outstanding your performance made me feel absolute joy to hear it played so well thank you very much for sharing that
Just the best. And after listening to this amazing piano i suddenly remember alll the moments of the film. Makes me emotional. Touches the heart,your piano
Mark Fowler Thank you!! Id like to ask you something, did you like the interstellar OST? I mean, it was completely different from what Zimmer uses to make(And he is my favorite composer), I can't decide yet whether I like it or not, I even find it very repetitive, I don't know, what do you think?´ Sorry for the english.
andtutoriales yes its a great movie, I find every track on the soundtrack to Interstellar is a real treat to listen to, you get something different every time, I have not found that in his other soundtracks, The batman soundtracks are obviously genius and Inception is too, but I really like the creativity in Interstellar on the whole, the complexity of the organ sounds and integration with the orchestra is so good, the different sounds he creates for the soundtrack, like the Wormhole track are amazing, its just genius how he chose the organ to carry the music this time, such an amazing idea, a stroke of genius.
I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free, in their triumphs and defeats, through long years to come... I see the lives for which I lay down my life, peaceful, useful, prosperous and happy... I see that I hold a sanctuary in their hearts, and in the hearts of their descendants, generations hence... It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known
With how much work it must be to learn a piece by ear and then be able to play it so well... it almost feels like that would be stealing from you! Keep up the great work. Your doing great!
Thanks for replying, I know about the titles in the description I just couldn't pin point exactly where and in what piece that progression is and wondered if anyone or the person that made the video could tell me.
Why so many dislikes? I can barley whistle these tunes, let alone simultaneously multitask a panel of black and white keys between my left and right hand. If all the dis likes can do a better job then up load your version. But the bar has been set very high for you :-\
+Antrelial B I see... glad you pointed out how actually it's just cords. I see how easy it is now for anyone to just pick up and play, no skill there at all. thank you for pointing out the errors in my thoughts about this guys cover, though you did forget to post your easy to cover interpretation. don't forget to up load it so I can be even more blown away by your higher level of skilled piano.
Will Phillips Ok let's go through it shall we. Did I say I could play this? No. You need to stop assuming that you have to be able to play that precise piece to know that it's not very hard. I'm guessing your knowledge of piano is very limited, so, coming from someone who ACTUALLY knows shit, it's not hard. Chords are the easiest for the left hand, just try it out and you'll see. I didn't say everyone could play it lmao
+Mark Fowler Great job, Mark! I've lost count of how many times I've listened to this. You should do a bloopers or fails towards the end of your videos lol cuz in all of your videos you look really professional and it would be really reassuring to know that you're a human after all XD.
Exactly how I feel. When I first heard this arrangement I thought "Wow he outdid himself this time." It's a great take on the pieces of music, not only are you able to capture the sounds, but also the emotions of The Dark Knight trilogy. But the LOTR composition you made... Wow. It blew my mind, and at this moment it's my favorite arrangement for the piano. I really want to be able to learn it some day.
Really admire that enthusiasm, it is just piano playing, but the level of energy is enough to shake the whole keyboard. I know it is on a bed, but I can still see that high level of energy output into the performance. Really, really nice. Have been a fan of yours for a long time. Thankyou for bringing us such exceptional piano interpretations, looking forward for more.

Why doesnyour piano bounce so much?

yeah. really. amazing i felt like ur having hard time bcoz the piano is kinda shaking.. but you still play it so awesome & Amazing
Karlo Aguila for you
I have no idea how many times I have returned to this piece. It is many. It truly moves me. Thank you Mark for posting this.
Just clicking on this makes me excited.
Then suchlike as nobly he spewed his utmost out through melody. Successful.
A voice in my generation tho, m..through music.
Absurdly gifted. I wasn't rewritable since my youth!

What if I told you Hans Zimmer is the reincarnated Mozart?
Just doing modern music :0

Malte Speck
He would probably be Beethoven, or what's his face with the harsh name...
can't remember his name, or any of his songs, but oh well...
my best part 0:00 - 7:46
why didnt u like the last second?
Luter Pestig maybe his last second couldn't load.
@@Dumchi22 no because it ends there lol..
3:45 absolute chills
5:39 up with the best zimmer has composed. Incredible and emotional music. brilliant cover as well.
For those of you who confused the dislike button with "dis i like" its okay, we forgive you.
It’s removed now lol
Mark, when I used to play, my parents would always say "practice makes perfect". Now I see why. You are amazing. Awesome job!
5:40 epic and iconic.. the identity of Nolan's Batman without a doubt ♥
self-taught, I am not graded at all, not even grade 1 officially, I dont believe much in the grading system to be honest.
Still the most majestic piano cover of Mark Fowler to date IMHO....Impressive...
The best starts at 3:00
Bane beast mode
There is nothing ever more breath taking than the melody of the dark knight.Good job and thank you for bringing all those memories back.
You're one of the bests here, please keep playing Hans Zimmer.
The only negative thing I have to say about this video is that it isn't longer. Beautifully played, absolutely mesmerizing. I have so much respect for you, Mr. Fowler, and you have inspired me to keep playing. Thank you.
This guy is making me a fan of piano music, this piece is simply amazing
to my ignorant ears, looks like electrical arragments make this piece sound absolutly round... Go Mark!
Impressive performance, though what I find most interesting is how he managed to play his keyboard on his bed... Insane so good lol.
3:45 i love this! 😍😍
+Ola Koń I'm not the only one :)
That parts is like a moment in time where you have to save the one you love while reflecting of how far you have come.
+Ola Koń Oh gosh, we're connected
Keyboard resting on a bed. Player on a swiveling office chair. Still belts it out. Pure class.
Its a great workout for your fingers.
+zech007 My fingers hurt by the middle of this! haha
LOL!! I thought I was the only one!! hahaha
for you
that is the trailer music used for the Nokia trailer/clip, this piece is not featured ,for some very strange and annoying reason, on the soundtrack album, however it closely resembles 'Gotham's Reckoning' of course.
I really like your style and your art. Always come back to hear this song from 5:39. Greetings my friend!
MrMorhant same gives me chills
Same. Nine years later, still my favorite part.
1:06 - 2:00 you transform this piece into it's own universe. This is beautiful, my mind and heart just burst with admiration whenever I listen to you play this!
Maybe it's because it's my favorite part but I thought you did especially well with the section at 5:35. Absolutely awesome man.
Such an beautiful sound from an electric keyboard
CIA - "You're a big guy."
Masketta Man - "For you."
A great song, a great trilogy ending movie, to a person playing on a piano one last time. So many ends, so many feels
This is so ridiculously good. A tear dropped... well done
UKpiano you are the pianist we deserve, but not the one we need right now. When all fail
to make another DK sheet we will call upon you the true avenger the Yamaha Knight.
This is the music people hear before they face a bully in school 4:32
lol
Stand up be strong!
peter lee is that a reference to Bleach?
i hear it when i breath
it never gets old...a few years back watched this video and it's still music to my ears till now
the one I play in this video is great, yamaha p-155, or you could get the more affordable p-105, but the touch/feel of the keyboard is half as good as the p-155, which is very important.
Hi Mark, I follow you.! Great job.! I couldn’t find this yamaha for sale, Just p125, which one is better this model or Roland FP-30?. Thanks
@@marcelohernandez7628 hard to say, both decent enough, perhaps yamaha has the edge with sound quality.
@@markfowlermusic ok.! I will go for Yamaha my friend.! I cant find P-155 in the market easy.! I will keep trying.! Thank you
@@markfowlermusic i like The P-515 mark, what do you think?. The p-155 is discontinued
This guy's passion is phenomenal!!
You sir. Are talented.
Notice, all the songs he plays are ones that he as learned by ear. That is insane talent.
you know those songs that give you goose-bumps or make the hair on the back of your neck stand up, this is it.
Bravo, Bravo. beautiful
I have been listening to this piano tutorial for over ten years I just love it so much
Unbelievable, love this cover!
oh holy sound of this piano and the fingers who create that sound!
WHERE ARE THE SHEETS?!?!?!
(Read it with Batman's voice)
ok?
They have been taken down due to copyright reasons. Which is a real shame.
WHERE ARE THEY!
TELL ME WHERE THE SHEETS ARE. THEN....YOU'LL HAVE MY PERMISSION TO DIE.
Chau Do i just watched that last night. Lol
Love the sound of this piano/violins.
MY BEST PART AT 3:45 TO 4:20
I love 5:38 onwards. Not as awesome as the original thing, but it's really impressive and still amazing to watch. n_n
The title of that piece is called "Imagine the fire"
I agree
it was made for the Nokia trailer for the movie, more than likely a re-edit of Gotham's Reckoning, bit like he did for the third man of steel trailer, the track ended up being called 'An Ideal Of Hope' (a re-edit of What Are You Going To Do When You Are Not Saving The World?) but was never officially released (like the piece you are referring to in your comment, it too was never officially released on the album or any bonus tracks, and I still dont know why either, as its an amazing track.
AMAZING Perfomance! :') your are very Talented!
3:02 My fav part, got the chills.
Listening to the piano version of masterpieces makes me enjoy the songs even more. This is amazing
Dark Knight approved.
You play with such great emotion and seamlessly blend the 5 scores leading up to 'Rise' which is an absolutely brilliant arrangement. Very well done
best part 3:00
its so amazing
my friend ,
I have played for years I have played by multiple sclerosis on my left side and a broken wrist on my right side and everytime that I play that I feel actually energetic inside and I must say your ability is absolutely outstanding your performance made me feel absolute joy to hear it played so well thank you very much for sharing that
How can you play with the keyboard wiggling like that? Lol. Pretty amazing performance!
Best DARK KNIGHT piano theme available right now
You nailed 'Why Do We Fall' so amazing dude!! :D
Just the best. And after listening to this amazing piano i suddenly remember alll the moments of the film. Makes me emotional. Touches the heart,your piano
Thank you very much, sir. This is amazing

andtutoriales I didnt get notified of your reply sorry for delay, I think its his masterpiece.
Really? wow I think the one from Inception or the DN trilogy are his best work, any way, did you like the movie? Interestellar
andtutoriales yes its a great movie, I find every track on the soundtrack to Interstellar is a real treat to listen to, you get something different every time, I have not found that in his other soundtracks, The batman soundtracks are obviously genius and Inception is too, but I really like the creativity in Interstellar on the whole, the complexity of the organ sounds and integration with the orchestra is so good, the different sounds he creates for the soundtrack, like the Wormhole track are amazing, its just genius how he chose the organ to carry the music this time, such an amazing idea, a stroke of genius.
It's been 10 years since this video came out and I still find myself coming back to listen to 5:39
Was worrying that the piano might slip and fall for the entire time haha, strong arms!
When 5:39 starts it the most wonderful moment! Thank you for this master piece!
Lovely
"Why do we fall" gave me chills, you did an amazing job.
Hans Zimmer. Excellent
INCREDIBLE WORK! YOU CAN FEEL THE MUSIC INSIDE YOUR SOUL!
Nana nana nana
Nana nana nana
BATMAN! :D
can I get the sheets please
beautiful makes me wish i could play piano. this is my favorite kind of music no words just pure emotion.
Awesome! Man can you play Chevaliers de Sangreal by Hans Zimmer? That would be amazing.
playing keyboard like this.. possible only in my dreams. Incredible talent.
Wondering if you exceeded your keyboard's maximum polyphony?
No chance...
I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free, in their triumphs and defeats, through long years to come... I see the lives for which I lay down my life, peaceful, useful, prosperous and happy... I see that I hold a sanctuary in their hearts, and in the hearts of their descendants, generations hence... It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known
Could you make a tutorial for how to play this?
With how much work it must be to learn a piece by ear and then be able to play it so well... it almost feels like that would be stealing from you! Keep up the great work. Your doing great!
What piece is 3:45 from?
Thanks
Look in video description ;)
Thanks for replying, I know about the titles in the description I just couldn't pin point exactly where and in what piece that progression is and wondered if anyone or the person that made the video could tell me.
I think it's Gotham's Reckoning ;)
But Marks version sounds better
Thanks :)
I'll have another listen.
Michael Costin its a piece that was never released officially for some strange reason, its used for the Nokia Trailer for the movie :)
Gets sweeter every time I listen to it!!!!
which soundtrack yoour favorite ?
Interstellar ? )
+Абылай Сейдилда I think Inception is one of his best, I love Interstellar though, Lion King is probably his greatest work or Gladiator.
+Mark Fowler Hans Zimmer !!! Thank you !! I'm gonna see him on 14 april :3 thank you to play his songs !
On my opinion 'The last samurai' is the best.

interstellar
rises should be known as one of the greatest movies of all times!!

Problem is, he is not even human anymore...
Batman is human though
well, who knows these days after watching inhuman finger movements
