39:28 I don't think geeky 11 year old kid-me recording Castlevania 3 songs with a tape record next to the TV could've imagined I'd be listening to an epic piano performance of Aquarius 33 years later.
I've been watching this wonderful lady perform for almost 10 years. I'm so happy that she's getting the recognition she deserves. Laurence, you are absolutely fantastique and wherever you go in life- your fans will be supporting you! Thank you! ♥️🎹🙏👏🌹
Its very interesting how some of the best compositions ever conceived were specifically made for video games. Some of them need to be recognized as all time greats up there with the best. Probably could say the same for some anime music. Its like these things inspired artists to create masterpieces, and the average musicians tend to ignore musical pieces if they were made for video games. The stigma that video games cant be anything but toys is ridiculous, theres a lot of games that contain exceptionally iconic aesthetics and with that... music pieces equally great to the best.
I had to stop after dance of gold, crying too much hahaha. then decided to punish myself with Moonlight Nocturne one of my fave from SOTN, performed beautifully by a beautiful lady.
Growing up in a developing country in the early 2000's when consoles in general were still pretty rare, i had to travel to neighbouring village to rent the game from the only house that had home consoles. Surely every kids from the alleyways surely wanted a chance to play games. I had to wait hours to even touch the ps1. So There i was, left to play a weird console no one bothered to play, an NES. My very first intro to castlevania. I didnt know it was castlevania back then, so i used to call it whip-man which i weirdly thought castlevania was a robot-man (like a megaman) who battle skeleton instead of other robots.
I wish there was a themed bar where you could perform this at that's only open from 9pm-330am, mandatory Victorian attire and people were only allowed to speak when you break. One can dream of the moon light's whimsy.
When I was a kid there was a themed vampire goth bar right by my school, all the tables where coffins and the goth owner would stand out in the street holding an albino python to get attention
@finnmarr-heenan2397 there was a bar owner I knew that did the same thing lol, the bar was called maidstone, but nicknamed gravestone. He would bring the python out and let people pet it. Bar is closed down now though.
Bonjour, mon vinyle vient d'être commandé. J'ai longuement hésité au vu des frais de port plus chers que l'objet mais votre talent m'a convaincu. Ne changez rien. Un français du littoral atlantique qui écoutera vos prestations au rythme de l'océan. Cordialement.
Merci beaucoup, c’est très apprécié 🥰❤️!! Les frais internationaux sont effectivement très élevés, merci énormément pour votre soutien. Sincèrement, Laurence 🎶
@@LaurenceManningPianiste Je viens de me rendre compte que mon message sympa a été effacé. Il devait être hors sujet et ne pas rentrer dans cette publication à but commercial. Un peu déçu du process mais j'imagine que c'est la normalité sur FB. Dans tous les cas je vous souhaite une bonne continuation dans votre carrière. Cordialement
@@LaurenceManningPianiste You are most welcome! I loved this game when I was younger, and I'm playing it again, along with revisting playing piano. I'm fiding the prospect of playing music such as this on my casio keybarod to be one of the most inspiring things to get me going again. I had finisehd off at level/grade four, and while I dont have perfect pitch, I do have a fairly good musical ear, and it between that and some knowldege retained from my previous experience, I will be able dive right back in as I have already. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out on your videos for further inspiration :)
Thank you so much, Laurence! My lovely Catlevania's themes! Hope you'll play another ones like Heart of Fire, Wicked Child and themes from Castlevania II!
I am working on a first album of Castlevania music on the piano but I will surely arrange more songs in the future, I also love Heart of Fire 🔥!! I made a video of « Silent of the Daylight » from CV 2 that you can already watch on UA-cam 😊
@@LaurenceManningPianiste Oooh, surely I'm waiting your new arranged CV songs. Your interpretation of CV music legacy really good. Old good themes will fill smth fresh each time I hear it with your brilliance play. Your "Silent of the Daylight" is nice! Waiting for your new CV album! Thanks a lot, Laurence!!
Great music, thanks for this 😎👌👏 as a kid I was bless to hear music like this and it helped me years later as a musician with harmonies and song structure and made me fall in love with Iron maiden 😊👍
This is beautiful Now the funny thing is i didn't play Castlevania series as a kid, however i did enjoy em as a grownup few years ago Yes yes laugh all u want everybody played them as a kid except me
Just preordered your vinyl! I can't wait to get it. Believe it or not, your Castlevania covers were the only thing that would soothe my newborn daughter. She's almost 3 now and still enjoys it.
Wow thank you so much for learning all of this and then also sharing it! This is totally priceless, what a dream to get to listen to such beautiful music exactly how it should be heard. The music already sounds incredible on the game systems but wow- recreating it with the live instrument it should be played on.. soo amazing! It's like a dream come true from childhood! The music is so gothic, emotional, ambient and macabre and you play it so perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing!!💖
This was a wonderful listen, thanks for making such a great collection of music. Forest of Jigramunt was especially appreciated since that one is underappreciated IMO.
... this is so marvelous... gorgeous... sooo great ! You are very talented lady... and it was a real joy to listen all these masterpieces... cheers ! 🍻
I listened to each of the versions and was absolutely amazed, incredible and I can't find a better adjective to describe how precious it was to hear your enormous talent in each one.
I spent so many hours hearing this music when I was a kid playing Castlevania. The music is seared into my brain just like many other Nintendo and Super Nintendo games. While the music is beautiful it does bring up some bad memories of constantly dying in the game and having to do the entire level all over again! Great piano performance, I wish I could do this!
Wow, oh my god, how much patience did you have to learn all these wonderful songs. We really appreciate it and thank you for playing them for us ¡Saludos!
Thank you so much 😊🎶!! I invite you to listen to my new Castlevania album (including a new recording of the Simon’s Theme) 💜: materia.to/PianoCastlevania
Amazing as always. I love listening to your music while I study or work it simply gets me in the right mood. Is there a chance this playlist to be available on Spotify? Keep up the amazing work. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you so much, danke schön!! I am working on a new album of Castlevania featuring most of these arrangements, so when it will be released they will be available on Spotify 😊
My Castlevania album is out 😃🎉!! To listen / buy (digital, CD + Vinyl): materia.to/PianoCastlevania

In an alternate universe, THIS is the music these games were originally released with and you can't tell me otherwise; just WOW.

It's a pleasure to listen in on this 🙂 The Castlevania games were great and the music was just next level

Wood carving partita 😍
