Omg he was my music teacher at school. Love this!
Omg! you serious?! That I sooo amazing!
Oh my God! You found him!
This guy was probably overqualified xD
No fu**** way!? I just can’t believe that, without even considering the probability how can this guy not be a professional pianist and live though preformance? I mean if he can’t who can? What a waste of talent to have him in a school he should at least teach in a club or conservatory to people who want to learn
Wow that’s incredibly lucky lol
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. may peace and calmness fill your life. ❤
Who else listens to this all year round? 🙋🏼♂️
After watching many covers I must say this is still the BEST of them all. Amazing. Beautiful. I'm an atheist and I still like the song.
The lady is not required in these kinds of videos. Music itself is mesmerizing
Wow this is INCREDIBLE
David Hicken...makes me feel how great is God to create such artistic player.
Best. Version. EVER!!! 🤩
My word! Beyond outstanding-- Mr. Hicken the pianist, rendition, presentation, allure, conceptualization, direction -- everything........Bloody marvelous
I put in "easy piano Christmas songs that sound impressive" in the search bar. This was second on the list of results.
Somehow I don't think this is considered "easy".
UA-cam, you had ONE job.
But it did produce an extremely impressive-sounding Christmas song played on a piano, which means it found three of the four qualities you asked for. :D
Well it may think you're trying to say if you want to hear classic/well-known pieces, with an EXTRA twist and talent!
Lol
ML Champion it actually is pretty easy!!! I was expecting the sheet music to be impossible but it’s really not. It’s just cuz of how fast he plays it. He gives some tips to make it easier in the sheet music!
It’s actually not that hard to play, it’s just that when people play a simple song, they try to be Mozart by playing fast and adding 5 million extra keys
David ! Oh David !
I listen to this song regularly. Just to cry a little.
Master of the "touch of the keyboard" total independence of the hands, the precision and speed of a computer but with human expressiveness at high speeds are a feature of very few pianists, even the most famous cannot do so much, in my opinion he is the number one
I'm blown of me feet, he does every song with perfection, and I want to be just like him! It's just incredible!!!!!!
Backstory: 2 years ago, as a Christmas gift, my wife bought me your Christmas Sheet Music of this tune. I thought, yeah, no way I could play this!! I'm still dealing with tendonitis, something I am mindful of when I perform. Still, David- you looked like a "machine" to me, and I thought man, I'm inspired to give this a go! I fell in love with the arrangement. I had to play it. I gave it a go in 2021, but the tendons in my left arm would scream at me. I couldn't get through it. I put the sheet music away.
Still, David's version was calling me. I had to give it another go this year. I memorized it. Then starting to train my left arm to get through it. I slowed the tempo down a bit which helps. But there are moments in the tune where I take the opportunity to stretch my left arm! That's my tendons are screaming "stop!"😱 I recorded it this morning: ua-cam.com/video/D97XyL1EVs4/v-deo.html. You inspired me man. Thanks!
One of the all time best Carol of the Bells covers. Minimalistic yet filled with epicness! Simply put: perfect!
I will practice how ever many years it takes day and night to get on that level :)
and better :)
Nya me to I just got a piano and I will practice day and night
Your Pal Ryan how's it going?
I know the whole song, but not as good as his, obvioisly. took me about 3 months
Good luck with that
Fantastic fingerworks…….youre so amazing….from, PHILIPPINES
Hey, just vibing to your tunes again and felt compelled to say thanks for creating such chill vibes. Your melodies are like a warm hug for the soul, you know?
GORGEOUS~EXQUISITE~TIMELESS~VIBRANT~CLASSIC~SILVERY~BELLISIMO!
Note how he is performing this on the edge of a seaside cliff. The only way to play this melody that does it justice!
ХРИСТОС НАРОДИВСЯ!!! СЛАВІМО ЙОГО!!!!!!!!!!!!
MOST DRAMATIC CHRISTMAS SONG EVER
Suche schon zwei Stunden nach einem authentisch klingenden und wirkenden Instrumental, Geige, Celtic, Modern, alles durch. Jetzt habe ich gefunden was ich suche. David Hicken, einen Namen den man sich merken kann.
Best version ever created of the best christmas song :)
Best one!
Hawaii + Steinway + David Hicken = Perfection
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!
I lost the count of how many times I watched this video. It brings me calm and adrenaline at the same time. Perfect.
Probably one of the best renditions of Christmas music I've heard dinner a while.
My performance tonight was pretty close to this.
Agreed. I'll be expecting a music video in the coming days.
I’m on my 8th time in a row listening to this awesome artist
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️marry Christmas to the master❤️❤️❤️❤️⛄️❄️🎄
This song is so beautiful! I cannot stop listening to this song.
Wow, I didn't expect it to be THAT good!!! With so many Carol of The Bells versions going around! This is amazing!
This one of my favorite pieces omg I'm sitting here watching with a huge grin on my face THANK YOU!
I commented on this video 3 years ago but in a different account, and the me back then sounded so amazed and the me now is still VERY the same, Im in a state of relaxation and happiness whenever i listen to this......... David! You are awesome!
I always called this "Home Alone Song". And now i'm running through the hall of my house listening to this :p
Uauuu - Sensationell. It‘s absolutly fantastic - i love it 👍👍👍👏👏👏😁😁🍀🍀
Just so soul gratifying BRAVO 👏
From a 41 on his B-day
That left hand rhytm is awesom. Unbelivable
You are the best!
Still coming back to the best performance of this piece❤️🎄
A life without music is surely the worst possible curse.
Can't stop watching it helps me concentrate on homework some reason

David Hicken is the best pianist I know
Amazing and wonderful performance piano music. Thank you so much. God bless you. 🌷🌼🌻🌹
"Shchedryk" (from Ukrainian: Щедрий вечiр, "Bountiful Evening") is a Ukrainian shchedrivka, or New Year's carol, known in English as "The Little Swallow". It was arranged by composer and teacher Mykola Leontovych in 1916, and tells a story of a swallow flying into a household to sing of wealth that will come with the following spring. "Shchedryk" was originally sung on the night of January 13, New Year's Eve in the Julian Calendar (December 31 Old Style), which is Shchedry Vechir. Early performances of the piece were made by students at Kyiv University.
It has become a favorite carol heard everywhere at Christmas but I wonder how many people know it originated in Ukraine. Thanks for explaining, Edward.
Olagonin Chancer pride
Did I ask
This carol was suppressed by the soviets, who weren't keen on Christmas music.
Thank GOD that I once got on UA-cam, looking for that original... but found this!! 😁
Still favorite version 10 years strong!
Everything in the video is amazing
I can FINALLY play this! It isn't perfect, but I am just about at full speed with a few mistakes here and there. I have been learning piano for about 3.5 years and working on this for around 5-6 months. It won't take you a lifetime if you try. I think I have easily played it over 1000 times. Now I just keep going and going. My hands scream to stop, but I make them keep going.
I just bought the bell Carol sheet music, wish me luck!
Good luck!
😉 good luck!
Progress : 2 sheets and half of the third, perfected. Only a bunch more to go
@@Phat_Nuts-bf3gr awesome job!
Go for it man! It's worth it
AS SOON as he started doing the mashups of the other songs that was a SOLID 🔟🔟 for me. OUTSTANDING JOB!!
I have always had dreams of being able to play this, every year I always try and practice the easy version of Christmas Carol of the bells on piano so I can play it for my family. I’ve had a dream that once I found a piano in public and I played this version and everybody just stood there with their mouth wide open, gasping at how beautiful this is. I played piano for almost 8 years now and there is no living where I can get the strength to be able to master this. His finger strength must be amazing to be able to constantly do those melodies nonstop.
Don't give up. Someone is waiting for your performance.
@@proteusnexus1428 I agree!
Same! I have not playing that long, just 2 years, but I always give up. Don't give up. Keep trying and maybe who knows, but you might become even better than him!
wow I've listened to this 20 30 times.. there's just something that catches my attention.. This is absolutely beautiful.
Omg. I really want to be a musician like him when I grow up. Now only I am at beginner level ( Gred 2 ). Hope I will be like him one day.
In addition to your technique, *David Hicken* , your arrangement is equally brilliant!
So beautiful persormance!, i like this music
I have no words for how magnificent and beautiful this is.
Why was this marked as spam?
Matheu Campbell No idea.
I used to listen to this everyday when I was in middle school. It is an amazing performance!
You play on piano really. I watch your videos every day.
Schedrik is always in my heart. Thanx You for this arrangement of Ukrainian carol from Ukraine.
Still best version I've ever heard! The passion is amazing
there are people who disliked this. Who would dislike this? This is amazing!
Haters/trolls that hate without watching
And some dumbass and morons too!
People who want to watch the world burn in there hands.
obviously 10 people couldn't find the tutorial and put their computers upside down to watch and give it a like ;)
People who disliked this cannot play this !!
My 2 year old will not move when this video is played, she loves this song
Incredible!!! WOW!!!!
I found the loop ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This guy's so good at the piano, he summoned a magical Goddess in a red dress to appear all of the sudden
She's his muse/anima ;)
She is so stunning in her blue dress. A very fitting backdrop for this fantastic piece of piano skill.
Unforgettable 😮
I learned part of this song for when me and my mom played a mix of Carol of the Bells and God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. She played cello while I played piano.
It must be an amazing feeling to be this talented. Excellent 👍👍
229 people hit the wrong key... How could they not like this? THIS IS KUST AMAZING!!!!!
JUST*
233 -.- ... They are haters ... Because they are too dumb for playing the piano, they give dislikes .
+Kyle Hines yah ... But that's okay ... I think haters have no life , you know?
And David has a life, so he don't gives a lagg :D
I agree they are stupid
Perhaps it has something to do with the arrogance of the title, since David's calling his own work "amazing."
Goosebumps Goosebumps Goosebumps ahhhhhhhhhhh love it love it
This is one of the beautiful things we have as specie, pure mathematics with no paper or calculator, only heart, talent, raw brains and practice
2:30 that transition is so gorgeous
If i was granted three lifetimes just to practice on playing this like you, i'd still fail in the end
David Hicken Thanks for the inspirational words, means alot to get them from you. I really love the piano and i'll learn playing it one day when i get the chance.
Playing in the rain would be cool, hard but cool Lol
David Hicken Wow i'm wayy bellow beginner 😂
I know it gives lots of pleasure, i know because the piano is my favorite instrument, never played it but i've listened to some of yiruma and Ludovico Einaudi's masterpieces on youtube and they are amazingly satisfying Lol. Now i'll be listening to yours as well, so thanks for the great music!
Keep improving,
I've already made it past level 6 on ABRSM but I'm still amazed... HOW?!? TELL ME YOUR SECRETS
What an excellent performance of this song. Thank you.
This is so romantic, gorgeous.
I play Carol of the Bells...creating magical atmosphere..
Sehr schöner Song
I am 9 and i am learning to play the bell carol! and this is my favorite song!
Great job lady on piano Carol of the bells and all
It's amazing.
That was amazing
I’m learning another version and it’s nothing compared to this
This is like………
In a dream
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!!!!! Best song ever!!!!
Wowwwww
AMAZING!! I play piano myself and now want to tell my teacher to teach me to play this!!! INCREDIBLE!
I fricking love how when it gets close to christmas or it is Christmas it gives me that warm and fuzzy feeling :3
After so many years the Bell Carol and this video continue to be memorable and timeless. This is not an amazing piano solo, it is the most amazing, astonishing and remarkable piano solo ever. Bravo David!
I watched this like a thousand times. I'm try to get the right notes to play. I play piano. I want to play like David Hicken
Amazing. How talented. God bless you.Reading the negative comments I feel so sorry for their mentality.
When ever I feel down I listen to this and my day is saved.
Thank you David!
Beautiful arrangement. I love the "We Wish you a merry Christmas" section in the middle.
An inspiration to pianist every where
This is called masterpiece.. Tnx David
Ignoring the beautiful woman for a second, that piano is gorgeous, I don't know a pianist anywhere that would say no to a beautiful Steinway and Sons piano like that. The guy playing is very quick and precise, something that's always refreshing to see.
Yea
It has been two years since I discovered this amazing video, have been watching this on and off since then(secretly hoping to get a like from him🙃)
Дякую, це дуже святково 🤗🎄🔔
Let's all thank the movers that got the piano out there and leveled it. As well as the guy that tuned it. They are the real heroes.
