world needs more piano battles

[@user-ot4kt1tv1u]

fuck yeah

[@valentinc.6542]

incredible the piece on white keys ... at min 9' ... just mind blowing

[@AlexStavi]

why i'm into Chilly: a few years ago, 2012 or so, i wanted to go to sleep, and choosing the Mezzo channel was the perfect option to sleep (for me) Then i heard some notes playing and so on so i started watching it, And that's it :)

[@platypus8135]

The best thing I have seen on YT since ages...

[@greob]

I remember that broadcast, it was really a lot of fun. :)
Too bad they discontinued it and never made any more of those.

[@jayjay25136]

Gonzales lui montre la puissance de la simplicité et du minimalsme, beau contraste!

[@baligandchantal9616]

Superbe, deux pianistes grandioses

[@eloisagarcia3300]

Chilly: a musical genius, super handsome, knows how not to take himself too seriously and has an actual sense of humour. I'm in love

[@BenBopALula]

Garch ! J'aurais vendu mon âme pour être présent dans la salle !

[@raphael_godro]

Chilly sa force c'est la simplicité et conduire le publique automatiquement dès la première note à vivre une émotion et de là il peut faire ce qu'il veut :)

[@jocelynemiloradovic2767]

C'est génial !!!! Merci !!!

[@SnipesMcFinley]

Awwh, it's only 15 minutes long! The entire performance was almost an hour long, and absolutely fantastic to watch. I wish I could find the DVD for it.

[@Elixear]

Festival Piano en Valois 2005.

[@francoisrodewald9868]

The whole video is on youtube

[@aidanritchie6128]

you've probably seen it by now but this is the full thing: ua-cam.com/video/TLt_FY4Qhrc/v-deo.html

[@MrLince-hr4of]

@@aidanritchie6128 i should be min. one battle every year😁

[@trueandika]

Incroyable

[@qrrbrbirlbel5150]

damn yo, Zygel's fingering is delicate like he could pleasure 5 butterflies simultaneously

[@moronisanchez3657]

Fun fact about Gonzales: he always wears winter clothes because he’s always chilly.

[@SOSOSOSO-ox2sb]

멋있다

[@user-ot4kt1tv1u]

admirable

[@nucleosconvolti]

[@samgiles3517]

I like how the guy at 4:00 takes 10 seconds to play every chord. Literally after the first chord he paused so long that I thought he was done. For the first thirty seconds of his playing their was more silence than actual piano.

[@truffeltroll6668]

Music without silence is just noise

#TeamChilly

[@DEZxINTEGRAL]

L'intro de Chilly à 2:45 est incroyable ;o.
Est-ce une pièce de M. Gonzales?

[@conrad6226]

I need to know! as well!

[@CaroChevalierlalalapiano]

C'est Chilly qui gagne la première manche clairement

[@MrZTarik]

S'il vous plait trouvez le ou que quelqu'un le dechiffre PLEASE

[@aletarossi-thomas152]

Excellent ! Chilly is my next future husband, he just doesn't know it yet.

[@user-ot4kt1tv1u]

I know

[@Pinguelamusique]

A 8:33 Il lit Novecento de Alessandro Baricco!

[@justicerie]

Anyone can recommend a track similar to the beautiful thing Zygel plays from to 10:00~11:20. What's his inspiration?

[@risesnot8602]

sounds a bit like Satie imo

[@lucasmarquis4530]

Debussy, Images? But still not as continuously marvelous as Zygel's...

[@gabrol7442]

A chord sequence at the end sounded like La cathédrale engloutie by Debussy.

[@enriquediazjr7333]

@13:12 it looks like Zygel is pondering "how the fuck did he do that??..."

[@Maddof_Erroz]

_What if there was an anime, where the keys the pianist play, moves their character,_
_So, the characters of both pianists fight, and the winner depends on which character gets damaged the most, after a certain period time._
_Just imagine the pianists playing and their characters fighting in-front of them in a ring or stadium._

[@christophlenz7489]

The first one for me was just hammering

[@Buckinghamrabbit]

Oh my don’t tell me they cut “the eye of the tiger” part due to copyright??? 😭

[@whackamole]

Look how sad BMO is at 9:34

[@sinekonata]

xD

[@goranhrastovik5364]

Gonzales won

[@MrJPA85]

Consternant...

[@nld2506]

Pour quelle raison?

[@jeanlucchapelon]

Chilly Gonzales est un peu « juste » pour oser se mesurer à Zygel!!!
Par contre cet été Gabriella Montero !!!👍

France sleeping pill!!

[@delko000]

Really? This makes me super wake up.

[@scottjennings7572]

There backs are omg terrible

[@albertgerard4639]

So bad, very awkward to watch

[@fildeo97]

@Its Possible Lol Bro, might be public friendly and a good show to watch, but the total amount of musicality in this performance is close to zero.
