Hey everybody, I know things are crazy right now and a lot of us are stuck at home or out of work. If you want, take 5 minutes to chill here and escape. Wash your hands first, though.

I'll give five rolls for this wonderful performance.
Why does this song just feel like a musical sigh? Emotionally aching right now, thank you for some moonlight in the darkness.
You should listen to Liszt Un Sospiro... It literally translates into " a sigh" haha. it's awesome tooo
Calvish I love Liszt!
This is musical impressionism. Debussy was a big if not the bigger exponent of this movement in music, almost all of his pieces are "paintings" with notes. It's personally my favourite era of music followed by romanticism.
Ps. I highly recommend you to check out "La Cathédrale Engloutie" if you haven't already. He paints a beautiful sight on aquatic sounds on that particular piece.
I apologize for any misspellings. I haven't written in English for a long time

I tried following those motions quickly. It made my neck hurt.
This 5 minutes felt like an hour,
I’m not complaining
This made me cry. A tornado just destroyed my home town, I'm quarantined and am being laid off. This made it all better for a few minutes. Thank you
I'm so sorry :(
Where do you live? Tennessee?

LMAOOOOO I read that as a tomato destroying ur house. Btw sorry for laughing my true sympathies are with you.
Hope u get better
It's like the game "The Evil Within"
When you hear Clair de Lune, you know you're safe.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache exactly
or the game danganronpa.
Then you just feel despair lol
Exactly, I always thought the same thing if u hear a piano playing that beautiful piece u know ur safe and don't need to worry about anything
@@thespeedyyoshi The despair is what happened... this song is the bittersweet hope that was passed on after.
"It's a soothing song that calms your heart, like the moon's reflection on water..."

Me: Plays Minecraft for 7 hours straight and not eating at all.

@@TheMelodyShawtysLike i think he means the version with all those people who can't sing
Omg I totally forgot about that. That was just embarrassing....
Ironically, this was posted to be escapism, but this makes the perfect apocalypse "world is collapsing but everything's somehow okay" music
This song is great for that, but I think Adagio for Strings is the perfect song for that occasion.
You should check out the remix of Over The Rainbow done for the new Godzilla movie, has the same vibes. I think they also used Claire de Lune as well.
Awkward 😬
Remember Godzilla's trailer?
It is a very hauntingly beautiful song
"The world is NOT COLLAPSING" why does everyone freak out about this?????? Im sick of this
Corona virus: *Happens*
Me: *Sleeps until 3* *Watches UA-cam all day* *Doesn’t touch a piano for days*
Charles: So anyways I learned Claire de lune, can now play the oboe and have found my passion for lion taming.
Me: Did you know I slept for 17 hours on Saturday. That was fun.
How healthy
I composed an entire alternate version of little drummer boy
Sorry for my inconvenience but what is an oboe?

I’ve never related more to a comment
My friend and I was talking about this song since the start of quarantine in Malaysia (18/3/2020). This is his favourite song because this song gave him the courage to actually learn up other songs and to push his standard in playing the piano and sight reading. He had asked me for guidance in this beautiful piece of romantic period classical piece and hes still in the process of learning the dark and strong Eb minor part. He had asked me to teach him piano but i told him i didnt have the standard to teach him but i told him that i can guide you in your favourite song. He chose this song and it has been my daily practicing song as well. This video almost made me cry just by how nice it sounded and I just woke up from my sleep (its 10:31am in Penang, Malaysia). I saw this when I switch on my phone and this video was on my recommendations and I just click on it. I didnt regret clicking on it. Its super nice and I believe you've made someone else's day. Great job and thank you sir❤️❤️!!
I don't want to spoil your comment, but this is not a piece 😅

What do you mean this is not a piece?
How can you teach someone how to play piano if you call this absolutely amazing piece a “song”? *gasp*
Dang bro
@@michaelandrews739 ikrrr 🤣
This song reminds me of pink guy running through the fields
😢
Bruh
Nobody sang. Not a song
This song always reminds me of walking a city street alone and just "being". You know when you just stand there and simply exist for a moment in the chaos of the people around you. No real thoughts. Just...taking a moment to remember that you're alive.
Edit: I know it's a piece. My bad guys. Lol.
Holy Crap!!!!!
Just reading this description took me right there. Sometimes I find my self doing that when I'm in the city (Brisbane, Australia) and do exactly this and then at a certain point you just exhale and know that it's time to keep walking on. I also have a dream of doing this somewhere in the streets of New York.
Anyways thankyou for writing your thoughts out so perfectly, it resonated with me.
Wow, that's what I think too... You helped me realizing it!
@Dubhaltach McSweeney I love when musicians pour so much of themselves into their music that the listener is transported almost literally into their mind. Even a 130 years later.

My grandpa died a couple years ago and when I was driving with my brother and now sister-in-law from the church where we held the funeral to the burial site, this song started playing in the car. When I heard it, I knew it sounded pretty, but it was so much more than that. This song really sparked something inside of me, so with my grandma’s help (who’s married to the grandparent that died), I learned Clair de Lune. What I came to realize is that the song is, in a way, representative of a lifetime, whereas in the birth of the song there are simple, fundamental chords that lay out the trajectory for the rest of the song. Then the song goes through puberty and flowers into a fulfillment of its true potential with beautiful and complex chord progressions. The song then nears its end as it grows old and reflects on life, where it combines the original chords from the beginning of the song with some chord progressions underneath. Then, the song goes through a little more reflection and dies. What’s interesting is that I always thought that death was a terrible, morbid thing, yet in this song death is presumably bright and happy. I found that the reason death is actually portrayed as such a beautiful thing in this song is because without death we’d always have tomorrow to do what’s important, to grow out relationships, to involve ourselves in a rich and meaningful life. But someday there won’t be a tomorrow, so we need to do what’s important now. I finally found peace in the eternal rest of my grandfather, for, just as the light of the moon is the greatness that can be found in the death of the day, all of the great things I can love about not only my grandpa but all of this universe is found through the inevitable end to our lives. Thanks, Debussy, for showing me that death is just as necessary as it is beautiful.
What a beautiful comment.
Sir, this is a Starbucks
But seriously, that is a very well put together comment.
this is the best comment i’ve ever seen on youtube

Why has this song got the same feel to it as “married life” from up? So sad but so happy
And possibly the inside out theme
both are pretty representative of a life and the cycle it goes through. I can see it
Its all about them majorminor7 chords baby
When you said it i felt it 😂
nothing can be compared to married life and how many tears that song has created
this is a good song to cry to, honestly.
No words. Just ... “Thanks.”
My son plays keys for his HS Jazz Band. They do a major performance at the end of every year and I suggested he take your version of Yummy to the band to learn for the show. Sadly... everything is cancelled indefinitely, including his graduation ceremony as of now. Thanks for sharing your amazing talent with us during these crazy times. Such a breath of fresh air...no mask needed.
i feel for him dude... i had two jazz performances and an entire show i music directed lined up for the next couple of months.. nothing happening now :(
I got into middle school all county a few weeks ago and all our performances are probably gonna be cancelled. I was really looking forward to it to
@@hiesjoe2110 keep practicing! That's really exciting that you got into all country, congratulations! That sucks that your performances might be canceled, but there's the chance that you'll get to perform at a later date-- in the meantime, keep on playing and practicing, have fun with it, and next time you get to perform, absolutely blow everyone away :) Also, might I suggest you perform your all county music for your parent(s) if your concert gets cancelled? You can always dress up and have a mini concert at home!
(I do feel for you-- luckily the performances I have coming up are months away and so will hopefully be fine, but I've had a number of lessons cancelled which is honestly really sad and disappointing but necessary, and a chorus I volunteer with had their biggest concert/show postponed, and they don't know when they'll be able to have it! I think it's important to keep practicing though, and keep holding onto the joy that we get from music-- look at some of the videos popping up where people, especially in Italy, are playing their instruments on the balcony, and their neighbors are all listening or dancing along!)
Charles really does bring us all together huh? Music is so amazing... Im a hs senior and was also supposed to have several performances this month and the next but sadly all cancelled :( I hope you and your families are all safe
Yea my spring concert is also cancelled and my graduation was supposed to be at a concert venue so that’s probably off too. But this is so relaxing I feel like I’m floating away from the stress of it all.
Screw lofi hip hop I want this. Soft tunes from pigeon man
You have no idea how hard I LOL'd!
Just search for classical music
I just want you to know that this led me down a rabbit hole through my recommendations to this guy that makes ethereal remixes of songs, where it sounds like the kind of shit you'd hear echoing through heaven, so thanks.
I loved that ethereal remix too... it feels like you're floating in space and watching its wonder but you're alone and floating to nowhere
@@pokerface4848 Its amazing and I love it.
Imagine this,
a small bus stop, youre waiting for your bus home after being laid off, all you hear is the pitter patter of raindrops hitting your small umbrella.
You reminisce on your day, how awful it had been, but when you reminisce it doesn't feel bad, you don't feel guilty or worry. You don't even feel happiness or joy, all you feel is calmness, stillness in the rain, with no one around to look or talk to.
But as you grow bored waiting, there are puddles just calling to you, you want to jump in. So you do. You laugh and play and then realize it was childish, but you don't care, no one is around after all, so you keep hopping around and playing, which you haven't done in a very long time, your bus arrives.
You greet the driver and he greets you, you take your seat and look outside the foggy window and see the rain again, the drops flowing down upon the glass.
The rain isn't gloomy or sad, but not completely delightful either. You think even more about what had happened just then, as you stood around in rain, hopped through puddles like a child, you forgot you were laid off, the calm rain made the world go still.
For once, you were truly alone, truly at peace, truly a child again. But now you are going home, you aren't sad that it was over, just happy that it happened.
somehow i read this all with visualising this as an anime
crying now, thank you
Underappreciated comment, describes exactly how I feel when I listen to this song
@@EvanGundersen thank you
Is no one else going to talk about how his eyes are closed?!?!
muscle memory
If you're playing from memory, it's distracting to look at your hands. I sometimes start watching my hands while they're playing and I'm like "hey, these hands are playing the piano... look at those veins" and then whoosh I'm out of the flow and I forget how to play the piano
@Andrew Buchan took me a second to realize what you said was wrong
@@kaitling6527 they didn't say anything wrong...it the path to ling ling
Andrew Buchan Yeah. Probably practiced with LingLing
**The fact that this legend played Claire de Lune with his eyes closed is frightening**
@AngryIncredibilis muscle memory is a weird thing 😂
Muscle memory is a strange and wondrous thing. Most of the pieces I've memorized, I did so by playing over and over until one day I discovered I didn't need sheet music for them anymore (as opposed to sitting down and saying, "I am going to commit this piece to memory"). If your muscle memory of the song is good enough, playing with eyes closed enhances the experience and sometimes allows for more expressiveness while playing. Unless you hit a wrong note. Then the spell is broken. 😜
@Andrew Buchan I can already tell you that I don't like you
This is genuinely one of the finest recordings of this piece I've ever heard
This is actually the first time for 22 years of my life that I have just sat back, closed my eyes, took a nice big breath and just listened to the music, no thoughts no nothing, just Charles playing. At one part I started seeing myself walking the beach alone, just palms, water, sand, blue sky and me. My eyes started watering and I don't know to describe my feelings, happiness or sadness don't know which one is it but it surely felt beautiful.. Everything just stopped for these five minutes and I realized I have to take my time and enjoy things I love.
I sing and play guitar for 5 years now but I have never sat alone in a calm room where its only me and music, now I have realized what I have been missing. Thank you Charles, you taught me an important lesson.
Hope you and yours stay healthy, happy, and filled with as much peace as is possible during these strange and unfamiliar times. How wonderful it is that music can bring so many strangers together 💖🎵

This is the best interpretation of clair de lune imo. I remember seeing this in the midst of all the chaos at the beginning of 2020, and it really gave me a sense of calm. Hope everyone is doing well

This is my dad’s favorite piece, and he and my sister and I are all in the handbell choir my mom directs at church.
So, for my wedding, I had the handbell choir (with subs in for us four) secretly learn this piece. At the ceremony, my husband’s parents and my parents came up to say a prayer over us while the handbells played this piece.
I’ve been looking for a really good rendition of Claire de Lune for a long time.. Rousseau was pretty damn good. But dammit, the feeling and emotion that you conveyed through this video is just absolutely insane. I don’t think i’ve ever been emotionally fully invested on a video before. Thank you for helping, Charles. Peace from Paris!
Same, I usually only listen to Rousseau, but this version is so good!
You shouls check out the recording that's the most popular on yt. This one sounds very much like that one

Charles Cornell is the most underrated musician in the world.. No exaggeration
Clair de Lune makes me think of time, of life, of the fact that someday I’ll move on, so to speak, but life will go on, time will go on, and despite all of our worries it’ll be okay.
It’s, simply put, in my opinion, the most beautiful work of art ever created, and will never cease to move me.
I'm a simple man, I see Clair De Lune, I click.
I think it's "Clair" not "Claire". Correct me if I'm wrong, tho.

@@rubyjulivre1136 practice makes perfect
After you practice a piece enough, It transfers to your muscle memory. You only have to look at the keys for large jumps or intervals, sometimes not even that.
HuanHuan Dong It's actually not that hard, and something you have to learn if you want to get into higher tier stuff. Especially when actually reading the sheets (which most professionals will do even if memorized, just keeps them on track.), you aren't able to look at your hands in between. Plus it feels nice to play with your eyes closed 😎

@@shines1397 when people go through royal conservatory training they're usually told to differentiate musical eras, baroque, classical, romantic, modern, etc. I think he was just trying to politely inform you of the fact that it's a romantic piece, so there's no need to be rude
MCVictorious actually, "classical" is mainly the widespread term for pretty much all pre-20th century composition, despite being a specific era itself.

Being stuck at home I've come to appreciate UA-cam content even more. Commenting also feels more fun because it reminds me we are all in this together.
My wife walked down the aisle to this song six months ago. The start of the most amazing journey. Thank you for letting me relive that for a few minutes ❤
Even after coming back to this four months later, it brings back everything I felt at the time it came out. It’s strange coming back, it feels like a completely different 2020.

The ending of this piece is always so bittersweet to me, because it's so beautiful that I don't want it to come to a close
This piece of music instantly calms me, always has. Recently, with everything going on I feel my heart beating out of my chest but not right now. Right now I can feel that slipping away and my whole body relaxing and my mind emptying of thought.
Beautiful
Nicely written
I can totally relate to this! When I was a baby I would fall asleep to this song every night, so now whenever I need to calm down or fall asleep I just put this on and I’m out.
It’s like he knew that I’ve been trying to learn this song and is just rubbing it in my face
Hey! It took me over a year to learn another song by Debussy called Arabesque 1. Don't you mind about what others can achieve, you just do the best you can. ;)
Thank you so much. Also, I see what did there ;)
You're welcome! 💕And yeah, your name is so perfect and I just couldn't help myself hehe xD
This piece reminds me of a warm spring morning after a rainstorm when the pavement smells nice
Nothing soothes the soul like classical music. Especially Bach's Passions.
Me: *listens to Claire de Lune when I'm stuck at home*
knowing it is now socially acceptable for me to stay inside all day and binge Charles’s videos makes my heart smile
im more impressed by the piano sound on that keyboard.
Crazy to think it's been well over 2 years. It feels like the past 3 years have gone by in a blur, as if they were only a dream that I'm waiting to wake up from. No matter how difficult it's been though, I always come back here.
🎹🎶That moment when you wait 5 minutes and 8 seconds for a punch line that never comes and surprisingly don't mind. 😌
Hey Charles. I just wanted to say thank you, all jokes aside. I’ve been having a really tough time mentally as of late and you made me smile with this.
Good luck Jude, get well soon 💛
Kitcat Siguenza Thank you
stay strong man
Robert Bee Thanks buddy :)
Stay strong, I’m praying for you.
this is smoother than smooth jazz
this piece is way to good. To me it seems like its giving me a view of a whole life where happy and sad or easy and challenging moments are shown. Amazing piece covered by a great pianist by the way.
As we look to the incoming storm, we must close our eyes and walk into that howling dark. The storm looks treacherous, but who knows what's on the other side.
Bryce McKenzie if it’s, a hurricane than most likely death, if this is a metaphor, then, umm.. I guess I missed the point and took it way to literally.
Bryce McKenzie i think we’re just waiting for the storm to calm, as we’re already pretty deep in it
Nixe comment !
im 14 and this is deep
Man, I have tried teaching myself Clair de Lune for about a year now. The slow parts are working out just fine, but the arpeggiated parts are a disaster...guess my left hand is just too dumb. Anyway, thanks for that beautiful rendition. Big fan of your channel!
Edit: thank you for all the kind words. Thing is, I am currently preparing to start studying conducting, for which I need a buttload of piano and to be able to read full scores and sightread them is getting me to my limits. Might have panicked a little.
You’ve been trying for a year? Try using both hands for the arpeggios. Use a mix of left and right.
Use two hands for the arpeggios! Makes life a lot easier
you can do it
ive been having the same problem too, im a violinist and can only read treble clef and figuring out the notes is tricky especially with all the flats. the arpeggios always get me :/
Honestly, that's just the way it is; you'll find yourself saying the same thing later when you learn something much more difficult. You just have to keep working, and you'll be amazed with what you can play next!
I'm watching this in Windows Vista right now. Not a virtual machine, not an emulation, but actual Windows Vista. What a time to be alive. ;)
This song is like the sound of "everything may not be going great right now but don't worry it will get better and then worse but no matter what we will get through it"
You should play Gymnopédie no. 1 next but make it *spicy*
How is that pronounced?

Magaly Degollado thanks guys!
Yep, he's definetley my new crush
I stopped what I was doing and played this over my speaker system for my family. I didn’t say anything. We just all went silent and just enjoyed the moment. Thanks!
the delay of those beginning notes almost squeezed the tears out of me,
thank you.
You thought this was just gonna be him playing Clair de lune...
*And it is*
You thought it was me, Dio
but you fell for it, fool! Thunder Cross Split Attack!
Didn't know that I needed this. Thank you, Jimmy (child, aged 9).
@블링크원스hoho don't they grow up so fast 😢
This song reminds me of just looking out your window and appreciating the stars in all their beauty.
Clair de Lune brings me to tears and I don’t know why.
