As someone with over 100 original Williams arrangements for solo piano on my channel, I know firsthand how challenging this is, both in terms of arranging and performing. Huge bravo to you both! 👏
This arrangement and performance is more truthful to the original piece than any midi instrument could create! So impressive! And I’m also wondering why this doesn’t have more views...
Wonderful rendition! Extra points for using the movie version. One of the weakest aspects of the concert arrangement is that it totally omits the love theme; it was all chase music. It was a very important part to the scene, as it demonstrated Han's wizardry in _beating_ the odds, and it signified the beginning of Han and Leia's deepening relationship.
Right. The love theme is also the deliverance part of this piece, the successful escape and the allowance to finally rest. It brings the chase to an end, which is why it is needed in the piece, even without the context of a beginning love.
Wow. I have no words... that was absolutly ASTONISHING. Thanks you for this arrangement. I can't wait for more from Star Wars. Battle of Hoth, maybe? Keep it up!
OMG this is so amazing. You guys performed this incredibly difficult piece of musical film art so accurately according to the dynamics and punctuations of the original performance. Mr. Williams and members of the LSO (1980) would be so proud . BRAVO!!!
These guys are awesome. Seems that The Asteroid Field becoemes a serious piece in symphonic music... I wonder whether people will still play and listen to it in 200 years...
One of the most WONDERFUL things I've ever seen in my life! I cant believe it dont have 9 MILLION views... Ah yeah... Mankind prefers to see that motherfuckin' Katy Perry, etc....
Hi Kevin, phenomenal arrangement. I'm also a piano arranger and I'd love to work on a solo piano version of this. Is your sheet music available for purchase?
This is such a delightful arrangement and performance. Incredible timing and synchornization with you two! Only an alien piano virtuoso with four hands on Coruscant can play this with more coordination. The Force is with you both.
You two blow my mind!!! What the hell?? You guys are off the chart awesome, Thank You So Much!!!!! Inspirational, im off to pick up my guitar... 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
I really like to see ypu perform "Quidditch, third year" from "HP and the Prisoner of Azkaban", the equivalent to Asteroid Field in complexity, rithym and tempo. You guys are amaizing!!!
This is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! May I DM you about possibly getting sheet music?? One of my pianist colleagues and I would absolutely DIE to play this!!!
2:19 is where its at. The nostalgia is off the chain.
the greatest beat drop of all time

"You're not actually going into an asteroid field!" 💢
"Well, they'd be crazy to follow us, wouldn't they?"

Agreed. If you're going to start with the imperial march, you have to end with the love theme.
Wow. I have no words... that was absolutly ASTONISHING. Thanks you for this arrangement. I can't wait for more from Star Wars. Battle of Hoth, maybe? Keep it up!
Hoth will happen....one day!
Yeaaah, thanks you. Can't wait :)
Please play more Starwars, Williams Harmonies are unsurpassed in my ears and Heart!!!

This performance is BEYOND INCREDIBLE!!

I was expecting another meh. I was wrong. Well done!
These guys are awesome. Seems that The Asteroid Field becoemes a serious piece in symphonic music... I wonder whether people will still play and listen to it in 200 years...
2:19 = everyone's favorite part
Absolutely! I watched just for this part. This part and the almost repeat of this part!

One of the most WONDERFUL things I've ever seen in my life! I cant believe it dont have 9 MILLION views... Ah yeah... Mankind prefers to see that motherfuckin' Katy Perry, etc....

Hi Kevin, phenomenal arrangement. I'm also a piano arranger and I'd love to work on a solo piano version of this. Is your sheet music available for purchase?
Excellent!
I made a solo arrangement of this during lockdown and thought a duo version would work better. And, indeed, it does. Well done!
My favourite SW song! Bravo, this was mesmerising.
This is such a delightful arrangement and performance. Incredible timing and synchornization with you two! Only an alien piano virtuoso with four hands on Coruscant can play this with more coordination. The Force is with you both.
