Shedonista Shamanatrix She is a graduated pianist. "Memorize" pieces is very easy, everybody's pianist(musicians) know it. Yes, she is good and a rocker pianist,also a classical pianist but I dont know if she still plays classical (her skilling is pretty good but this type of music on piano is not the best way for show skills).
nice performance, but i suspect fake paid-for views and fake subscribers... this is very common on YT... please check out my channel for live acoustic piano & vocal covers of 80s/90s classic songs if you are interested in music from that period. Thanks.
Antonio Torino don't be so narrow minded, you obviously have a very small intellect when it comes to the kind of music she plays! It might not be your cup of tea but the songs she plays are loved by millions across the planet, to name a few Metallica,Queen and Led Zeppelin have millions of fans from all walks of life! "A diamond in the mud"? Get a grip of yourself! If you don't like the way she interprets the music and adds her touch then please keep walking, there's nothing to see here!
I think that it’s one of your best interpretation. The way you are playing is always so intense, especially here during the solo. I think you have a deep understanding of music and that it’s not just because you are technically very good. You are able to catch the soul of the songs and give it back to us through your piano, it’s like translating emotions into music. I’ve been playing piano for 10 years now and I’ve discovered you when I started to play. Like most of your audience I’ve never posted any comment on your videos so I would like to thank you for being one of my greatest piano inspiration.
I'm in tears, that was so good. I've loved this song for decades, and didn't think anybody could approach the original. Bravo. I could tell at the end, as your hands pull back reverently from the keys that you love this song very much. Thank you.
I love how you're always faithful to the original version of your covers. You never fail to capture their essence. I'm all for originality, but when I want to hear a song played on the piano, I'd like nothing less than a faithful adaptation. Salute!
You are amazing. So many people can sit down and play the notes, but your hands glide smoothly across the keyboard and make beautiful music. I could listen for hours.
There's a lady who's sure All that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven When she gets there she knows If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Oh oh oh oh and she's buying a stairway to heaven There's a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings In a tree by the brook There's a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiving Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it makes me wonder There's a feeling I get When I look to the west And my spirit is crying for leaving In my thoughts I have seen Rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those who standing looking Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it really makes me wonder And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason And a new day will dawn For those who stand long And the forests will echo with laughter If there's a bustle in your hedgerow Don't be alarmed now It's just a spring clean for the May queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by But in the long run There's still time to change the road you're on And it makes me wonder Your head is humming and it won't go In case you don't know The piper's calling you to join him Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow And did you know Your stairway lies on the whispering wind And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last When all are one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll And she's buying the stairway to heaven
Bravo! Great natural piano sound without all the reverb and effects that most people slather all over their piano music these days and a beautiful performance!
Beautiful playing...a perfect example of why Led Zep is the greatest rock n roll band in the history of music.. to transpose the music, vocal melody and solos into a piano composition where it is laid bare, truly shows the brilliance of this piece of music... a masterpiece....and performed as such.
Grand piano has some kind of special presence i cant put my finger on, that somehow makes this more than absolutely beautiful. But the previous version is also amazing. Her talents shine no matter the vessel 😍 Can't ever get enough of watching her play. It gives me chills or brings me to tears every single time.
She did on the piano--without any sheet music--what you've failed to do on the guitar for 4 decades. When will this woman be recognized for her greatness? It's been long enough.
Every time I watch this, it's an emotional journey. You have such passion, you "get" the song, and it comes across. I got that album 45 years ago for my 13th B-day - my first album. You weren't even born then, yet you immerse yourself in its melody and convey it so well - Bravo.
I was tinkering around on my guitar and piano (I'm not a piano player) and a thought occurred to me: "I bet Stairway to Heaven would sound awesome on a piano....TO THE UA-camS!!!" It was just as good as I imagined. Thank you!
I've listened to quite a few of your covers and am loving your style, subjectively in my opinion you play in waves with abrupt breaks. Very fun for my minds eye. Thank you.
When I watch someone as talented as her play the piano, I get the urge to grab the one closest to me and start learning how to play it. This girl's knowledge, skill, emotion transferred in the music is astonishing!
This is beautiful. You're amazing! Holy shit! That rendition of the guitar solo! That is so fucking impressive! That's really hard to do! And this has so much passion in it. Im blown away. I'm sperging over this video but Im honestly basically standing and clapping and throwing roses/my panties at my computer screen.
I've stayed at Headley Grange where this piece was first composed. It's a rather stately hotel now. In the lounge there is a piano. Having listened to this wonderful artist in her sublime glory, I think that piano at Headley Grange is waiting for her to complete the great circle, bring this heavenly song home and lay the ghosts to rest.
As always Vika, AMAZING!! I have be a fan for 8 years now and I've compared every skilled pianist I know of to you but no one compares to your talent. I play and compose very well but everytime I see one of these videos I feel like I play on a juvenile level...
Grand piano sounds awesome. Song sweesp along the notes like climbing a stairway to heaven. Flowing. Bass good 3.26, then picks up with both hands. Excellent.
my favorite song of all time. I love that you play and feel this music so beautifully, vk. you are marvellous and transcendent in your craft. my eternal thanks for sharing the fruits of you hard work with the world.
Massive zeppelin fan but have to say this is the most beautiful and emotional version ive ever heard. Reminded me of all the emotions i had when this was playing carrying my dads coffin at his funeral. But in a nice way thankyou . :-)
How can people hit the dislike button? Even if you don’t like this song, she totally rocked it! I guess haters will be haters especially when they can’t do. Awesome song awesome playing
You have such energy and talent, wow. I know it took many years to become so accomplished but you have a natural talent. Love to listen to your recordings, new or older.🥰💯💯💯💯
I don´t think so. I quote Thomas Alva Edison: "Genious is 1 % inspiration and 99 % perspiration". She is a virtuosso because she practices at least three hours daily.
lol and her being a trained pianist since early childhood and probably upwards of anywhere from 10-20000 hours of practice. dont discount her efforts...
Aaah...as usual the mighty ZEPPELIN calls to all musicians,..from generation to generation,.and once engaged..never fails to yield fervent gems..from any instrument. Well done!👊
This is the 3rd video I've watched of you today, all with no reading. Words can not describe how amazed I am by your talent. So precious and spectacular!
still noone did a solo like this smooth this is epic and as a guitarist i play metal and rock music i feel so staisfied with solo beautiful ! so much love to u !
I have no words to express what I've just seen, but you play incredibly well !! I also love this song so much, played on the piano it gets even better. A great big hug from Brazil!

There are so many pianists who can't play the pauses. That's where all the heart is imo. This woman absolutely nails it!
I keep coming back to this, year after year. It's beautiful.
Same! 🙏
I don't even know how many times I've watched it, but I know that soon I'll watch it again :)
Your passion, intellect, capacity to memorize, absorb and interpret music, all shine through in the way you play, especially with NO music reading!
Memory is important for feeling.

Dark music only a few people like ???? Stairway to heaven is one of the most recognisable , loved , played pieces of music in modern history

3:46 thanks for being faithful to the original guitar solo. Luv the part. Pure talent.
She deserves more recognition

Thank you

When you get kicked out of a guitar store for playing this, then you go to a piano store...
where is it from?
no stairway......denied
😂😂😂
That's funny!! I play both guitar and piano so I get it big-time! Lmao!
Lol
the way she plays the lead part really hilights the incredible construction and melodicism of Jimmy Page's solo - really nice job!
To some music is just pleasant background noise. To others, such as this young woman, music is a life force. Powerful!!
The Best piano cover of Stairway To Heaven.
As a huge Zeppelin fan, I say one word: Goosebumps. I absolutely LOVE this!!!! And she's buuuuying a stairway to heaven....
That solo!!!!! Awesome!!!!! 3:45
@@otlayr3030 😂
Charlie0404 yeah ummmm. Uhhh. Illl just let you listen to jimmy page, then you’ll get it.
@@otlayr3030 If you listened to the actual song you'd know that part is a solo.
@@Max-jm6md And if you had a sense of humor you would have known that it was a joke.
You are amazing. So many people can sit down and play the notes, but your hands glide smoothly across the keyboard and make beautiful music. I could listen for hours.
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Oh oh oh oh and she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiving
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who standing looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
And it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying the stairway to heaven
yeah great comment
I got chills at the guitar solo starting 3:44.
Jimmy Page would be proud.
Это великолепная идея - переиграть все в живом звуке! С нетерпением ждем следующих композиций.Каждый Ваш выход - праздник для любителей музыки!
Bravo!
Great natural piano sound without all the reverb and effects that most people slather all over their piano music these days and a beautiful performance!
probably my favorite song ever.

Speechless. This was breathtaking, especially the solo.
Absolutely invigorating as well as peaceful. I have never heard Stairway played so beautifully. Fantastic sounding piano.
Vyka is really wonderful. Congratulations!!!
Her version of "the last of mohicans" is fantastic too, she, alone, is a complete orchestra
She did on the piano--without any sheet music--what you've failed to do on the guitar for 4 decades.
When will this woman be recognized for her greatness? It's been long enough.
Thank you Thomas
Wasn't expecting to re-fall in love with this song. Or have my breathe taken away
I almost cried when the solo at 3:45 started
This video is why UA-cam was created! Absolutely beautiful rendition of a song that will outlast time itself!
You are the best . cheers from Brasil
kkkkk You are* the best, br aqui tbm

Вика, нет слов благодарности за эти несколько записей в этой обстановке, и в Цюрихе. Это настолько НАСТОЯЩЕЕ, что вот это и запомнится навсегда.
Wow! Amazing, not just this one, all of them! This is a musician and not what "musicians" of nowdays. Cheers from la France!
No way to put into words how absolutely beautiful this is!
and it makes me wonder...
she does
Caio Guilherme profile pic makes this hilarious
mmm, whatcha saaay....
thats the part when backmasked says "heres to my sweet satan."
Caio Guilherme oooohhhh
Absolutely stunning. I cried my eyes out, this truly is a work of art. So much power coursing through her.
Great piano playing :)
Beautiful! It's like she was put on the earth to play this piece! Can't get it out of my head ...
The solo is incredible!

I've listened to quite a few of your covers and am loving your style, subjectively in my opinion you play in waves with abrupt breaks. Very fun for my minds eye.
Thank you.

I nearly cried! Thanks! :)
Deep smile across my face that kept getting bigger as the song went on...a little mist in the eyes too, especially toward and at the end. Thank you!
This is beautiful. You're amazing!
Holy shit! That rendition of the guitar solo! That is so fucking impressive! That's really hard to do! And this has so much passion in it. Im blown away.
I'm sperging over this video but Im honestly basically standing and clapping and throwing roses/my panties at my computer screen.
Olli Olivine 3:40 👍
what's a sperging? never heard that word before...
I watched it twice, and it is so over the top, there really aren't words that do it justice.....Thank You I enjoyed very much
This is the best channel I have found. I love rock and these versions are very good.
I've stayed at Headley Grange where this piece was first composed. It's a rather stately hotel now. In the lounge there is a piano. Having listened to this wonderful artist in her sublime glory, I think that piano at Headley Grange is waiting for her to complete the great circle, bring this heavenly song home and lay the ghosts to rest.
Still beautiful every time you hear it
Absolutely beautiful arrangement. Her performance brought this old rock classic back for me.
Aufgrund deiner Videos habe ich nach über 20 Jahren Pause wieder angefangen Klavier zu spielen. Danke dafür!
Matthias Neisser understood
yeah, that makes sense
+Deniz Yanik +thiago sena He said he started playing the piano again after a 20 year long break, and thanked her for that :)
thank you for that.
sie wohnt in Deutschland und versteht höchstwahrscheinlich wesentlich mehr deutsch als du denkst
アコースティックのピアノが似合っています。
曲の神秘さも相まって、ひたむきに弾く姿に、とても惹き付けられます。
As I watch Vika's vids I am continually struck by her mastery of dynamics... Seems simple musically but it makes a huge difference......
That guitar solo was amazingly played, dang
As always Vika, AMAZING!! I have be a fan for 8 years now and I've compared every skilled pianist I know of to you but no one compares to your talent. I play and compose very well but everytime I see one of these videos I feel like I play on a juvenile level...
jaxx2202 you should check 'fazil say' black earth.
Jarrod Radnich
Hiromi Uehara is the best living pianist imo..
jaxx2202 another great pianist to watch is Peter Bence
Try Emile pendolffi
Grand piano sounds awesome. Song sweesp along the notes like climbing a stairway to heaven. Flowing. Bass good 3.26, then picks up with both hands. Excellent.
The solo! Wow!
Great arrangement and cover if this great song. I enjoyed several of your performance this evening. Thanks for sharing.
Got a teardrop or two down my cheek right now. A work of grandeur!
my favorite song of all time. I love that you play and feel this music so beautifully, vk. you are marvellous and transcendent in your craft. my eternal thanks for sharing the fruits of you hard work with the world.
Wow.. that solo at the end was ammaazzing.
Massive zeppelin fan but have to say this is the most beautiful and emotional version ive ever heard. Reminded me of all the emotions i had when this was playing carrying my dads coffin at his funeral. But in a nice way thankyou . :-)
That gigantic chocolate cake behind her looks delicious
Capt. Dr. Steve Brule Great now I can’t Unsee that
You just received a legitimate laugh out loud. 👍
i don't see it
"The most beautiful chocolate cake!" - Donald Trump
Yes buddy I'd eat it all
How can people hit the dislike button? Even if you don’t like this song, she totally rocked it! I guess haters will be haters especially when they can’t do. Awesome song awesome playing
You've improved the capture quality a lot since the start. The piano sounds clearer now :)
hehe, i think you really deserve your name :p
And as we wind on down the road, our shadows taller than our souls! - wow. She nailed it
Amazing, as always!
You're the best !
You have such energy and talent, wow. I know it took many years to become so accomplished but you have a natural talent. Love to listen to your recordings, new or older.🥰💯💯💯💯
Brasil, essa menina é um grande talento.
Just watch how her hands glide over the keys. Such passion and heart!
Sounds beautiful Vika!
It's close to 2:00 in the morning and I'm closing down with this rendition of Stairway To Heaven. love it, and thank you.
you did it over and over always amazing :3 good luck
BEST cover I've ever heard. Brought a tear to my eye.
How oh how do you play lead and rhythm at the same time?!
that's how piano music is actually written and performed.
Yup
with soul
OUTSTANDING !!!!!!! Sensible, powerful and technically brilliant! WOW!!!!!!
Perfeição
the pianist is really divine in this arrangement !!!
Another amazing, powerful performance. Cameraman needs to be fired though.
Please add this to Spotify. It’s my favorite rendition of my favorite song!
Fantastic! This is my favorite solo cover of that song. And what a great arrangement.
This is natural born talent....
I don´t think so. I quote Thomas Alva Edison: "Genious is 1 % inspiration and 99 % perspiration". She is a virtuosso because she practices at least three hours daily.
Hernan Salcedo don't quote Thomas Edison that dudes a cheat.
lol and her being a trained pianist since early childhood and probably upwards of anywhere from 10-20000 hours of practice. dont discount her efforts...
Aaah...as usual the mighty ZEPPELIN calls to all musicians,..from generation to generation,.and once engaged..never fails to yield fervent gems..from any instrument. Well done!👊
Amazing. You really feel it
I watched this 50 times in a row. Chills everytime.
love Led Zeppelin
This is the 3rd video I've watched of you today, all with no reading. Words can not describe how amazed I am by your talent. So precious and spectacular!
A non-muted version! hell yeah!
So acomplished than you so beautifuĺ
I showed my piano teacher your videos. He is quite accomplished and loved your work. Thank you :)
Could you possibly do "That's the Way" by Led Zeppelin? I think it would sound pretty
RustyRainbow22 that's the way, earl's court 77' (I think) is the best version ever.
Well done!!! I grew up listening to that song And that just brought a tear to my eye. Thinking about the old memories.
I found a way playing stair way but not getting kick out from the store :D THE PIANO DEPARTMENT!
And that's why I started to play piano rather then guitar
Ive played piano for 40 years. This girl moves me. Amazing
Ah como eu amo o som do piano ❤
still noone did a solo like this smooth this is epic and as a guitarist i play metal and rock music i feel so staisfied with solo beautiful ! so much love to u !
Did she really play that with her eyes closed the whole time???
WOWOWOWOW
she plays from the heart .. no eyes needed
It comes with time. It is nothing which has to be practiced really hard
CraigBMM she does open her eyes, watch
She does look a bit but only slightly here and there.
Right? A pianist mainly uses their eyes to read the music. She's just reading it off the inside of her eyelids.
I have no words to express what I've just seen, but you play incredibly well !! I also love this song so much, played on the piano it gets even better. A great big hug from Brazil!
I thought I was sick of this song until I watched this.
