I wrote most of my PhD-dissertation with the help of this concert. Nils Frahm is therefore also in the acknowledgements: "A special thanks goes to Nils Frahm. Your music has enabled me to write every word of this thesis. Thank you for existing, and thank you for creating these inspiring sounds."
I came all the way from Tunisia to see this live and I have to say that it was worth it. The most magical moment of my life. Nils has this ability to transport you with his notes. Felt like a trip through time and space. Thank you for this moment!
Saw him in Funkhaus yesterday and this was not a concert it was an event with everything fitting together. The old building that felt like you wander through old memories. The large studio 1 with an organ build into the wall, dimly lit. The Caretaker fills the air with nostalgia while people take a seat. And then it begins and Nils takes you onto a journey full of emotions. I loved everything about it. If you ever have the chance to see him live, do yourself a favour. You will never forget these memories.
can i throw this in the mix ua-cam.com/video/NL3BlDYWmRk/v-deo.html BBC electric proms 2015 says is my favorite part this man has a place in my heart besides Jean-Michel Jarre
The older you get, the more you realize what you are missing. UA-cam brought me here. Wow. First time I heard this brilliant musician/composer. Overwhelming. Thank you so much.
So this is not a lie or an exagerration, I went to one of his concerts, I closed my eyes and I had an out of body experience, I could see myself and my feelings from a new perspective. And I didn't took any drugs.
If you love Nils Frahm's music please visit my UA-cam. Creating/playing music is my true pleasure & if you have a few minutes I'll appreciate you listening to my music! I create my original as well as piano versions to genres like Contemporary/Electronic :) Thank you!!!
He just played Geneva this week and I am so glad I got to go. No words, except spectacular. I think he might have run a marathon going to all his different machines and keyboards (and the glass harmonica!)
Somehow Nils Frahm's music is my personal cure for depressions. Need a full set to get rid of a depression - but it works better than everything else...
Do you know why that is? His music is so pure that it makes you forget about your thought processes that make up your ego. Your ego is the cause of your misery. I get the same from it

This concert ist pure art. The way he completely dives into his music and get into kind of trance to follow his composings is amazing. Filmed by a wholesome and also talented Montreux festival crew, they are creating this beautiful piece of music history.
J'adore surtout l'orgue le début est à la fois paisible, reposant. Cette musique permet de méditer, de reposer le corps et l'esprit. Bravo monsieur Nils Frahm. Pardonnez de selement découvrir qui vous êtes. Vous êtes un génie. Merci à mon beau-frère Christian de me faire partager des moments d'émotion en écoutant cet artiste. Bonne Année à vous tous ! 😀😀
Every single note and chord that Nils plays is always exactly what my entire being wants to hear.. The sheer beauty conveyed through his music is so incredible to the point where It's almost indescribable. The way his sound walks a thin line between the historically classical to the futuristic digital is surreal. He is essentially a bridge which connects two vastly different realms in time and to me the listening experience is always just as wildly impressive as the first time. *Jaw-dropped while floating in a gorgeous nebula.*
@@iamupinacloud Hey! Not yet! But will be seing him in Montreal, 2023 at Place des Arts. A nice venue (3000 capacity). Saw Radiohead there back in 2006 and Sigur Ros a few weeks ago! I don't know a lot of Nils songs... but i'll have time to get immersed by them before the show! What part of the world are you in? Cheers!
@@Injektilo44 Well, let's just say I'm not overly far from Montreal. So your message has all of me quite jittery with excitement. In 2023 he's in MTL?! That's amazing to hear and I think a perfect opportunity as well. Last time I was there was to see Eric Prydz/Pryda/Cirez D. Either that or Jeremy Olander.. My memory is a bit hazy with regards to the timeline. But that's awesome. Last concert I saw was Sigur Ros in Toronto (pre-covid). It was a majestically beautiful experience. I think I'll have to get a ticket for Nils. Thank you for sharing and I hope you've enjoyed your immersion thus far! :))
Hey young man Nils, just discovered you today while listening to a classical music station in Toronto. You’re my new, with freshly new addition to Vangelis, Tangerine Dream, Mike Oldfield, and others. Some people, new starter musicians will say “Everything was done; there’s nothing new you can do…”. No, no, no! You’re a proof that the creative mind is endless. Thank you for continuing to make people happy!
you named my unnamed feelings about that concert :) not sure how I did not notice that comment before, as I watched the vid a few times, but - thank you.
It's not a music, it's sounds of emotions and life. I listen to it every day, Nils is genius, he does not perform, he expresses himself in this melody of soul
Being a fan; Liste too the sounds; getting in to the world; Nils Frahm is one in a Million. The pure Beauty of his music; Frahm is even when you are don’t know it on your bucket list. Nils get this one connections .. Nils teleport you in seconds .. Nils …
A few seconds after I began listening to this piece of music, the tears were streaming down my cheeks... I will not analyze why. It's just a mystical experience. Incredible as it is. Such a piece of beautiful music!!!
My son just recommended I listen to this, this guy is amazing. Such a pouring out of love. Should be played through speakers on the streets, help people to relax, wake up, smile, remember themselves.
I couldn't get the last 3 minutes of the performance to play loud enough even though the speakers were smoking and the dog ran away. Wow the piano finale was absolutely perfect. Just beautiful ...brought me to tears. Love it!
If I'm in a bad mood or having some toubles. This video with headphone over the ears, full volume on and everything is ok for the next few days. Worked already 50 times.
You must be a very angry and distraught man... 50 times... wow !!... Are you armed with any weapons as I'd certainly be keen on keeping you at arms length or more realistically country's length.
I just noticed, during “Says”, he’s tapping out the rhythm of the sequence playing in the background with his foot, while playing the melody on the piano in a different time signature. Are all piano players capable of this? It’s extraordinary. Truly a separation of brain hemispheres. Like two different people. Absolute genius. I don’t know what it is about “Says”. I play it to death. Lifts me up and inspires me.
It's actually quite common in trained piano players but it's unique to the instrument. You can do it with some stringed instruments like guitar but not the way you can on piano since you don't have to hold it. It opens up your other hand to play another part in another time signature. It's pretty neat tho
I watched Says and I don't think that's a different time signatures you're talking about. That's called a counterpoint but it's still the same time sig.
If you love Nils Frahm's music please visit my UA-cam. Creating/playing music is my true pleasure & if you have a few minutes I'll appreciate you listening to my music! I create my original as well as piano versions to genres like Contemporary/Electronic :) Thank you!!!
What an extraordinary, humble and great musician! I absolutely love his intense focus in each moment of performance and his casual, no frills style. Also, each time I watch him keeping one shoe off and the other on, for comfort and best execution of his playing, is cute and endearing. To say I wish I personally knew this man to see how these songs are born, is an understatement, as I can only imagine how the entire creative process unravels, before it ever reaches the ears of an audience. I have not witnessed any other composer, put so much progressive energy and extreme effort into a performance of this type of music. I am blown away by the passion of this musical genius and anticipating to see him live at the knockdown Center in New York, in March 2018.
That's awesome and you're very lucky! I would love to see him live anywhere. It would be a really neat experience to see him play in an old church or something. I too admire the way he performs and presents his music. How he dives right in and becomes one with his sound. He absolutely is a one of a kind artist and I hold much respect for him for doing what he does. Also, I hope the time you spent absorbing the aura of his live performance was truly monumental!
When Tangerine Dream + klaus schulze find a new genius, a new generation. I´m so glad to meet you tonight. So happy listening your music. Many thanks for you. Was a bad today before listen your music.
Gen Z and Millennial's Yanni. Congratulations. He could slowly play "chopsticks" with the same layers, effects, lights and emotive gyrations and y'all would swoon and say "genious!" Some things will never change.
@@pattinch1543 Just because this music is repetitive, does not mean it's cheap music. It Is quit an accomplishment to achieve this trance-like state within classical music. Taste differs, and probably there are snobs who approve everything Nils does. But I am a critical music listener, and I do think this is good music.
I knew some songs from Nils but was never a fan. Except most of the songs with Olafur Arnalds. But I remember exactly the moment, when I saw this video for the very first time, 5 years ago. It was absolutely mindblowing and it got me in another dimension! And today - I am in another dimension again!
For almost two years cause of corona-shit I felt not that good and on top of it I punished myself not listening to music. Most songs made me cry and tear up. I am glad I got into it again and feel good. We'll see what tomorrow will bring but odds are in favor. Love that soft Jazz.
God, I love pianists that are so passionate they sweat on stage like they're doing a hard work-out. To often I see musicians performing without giving their all.
If this was filmed during or post covid I bet they wouldn't have so many close up shots of the sweat dropping from the tip of his nose! :-) If I had watched this video 5 years ago I probably wouldn't have been bothered by that image, but now, in the post-covid era, watching this seems to provoke some instinctive disturbing reaction to those drops falling off his nose...
I was blessed to see him live in Hamburg's Elbphilharmony in 2018 (or 2019 ?) from the best seat in the house. Just directly 1,5m above the main sound engeneering desk, in the middle of the parquet seats. It was a dreamlike experience!
Two concerts in Berlin, several vinyls and physical albums, the whole released world of Nils Frahm at the palm of my hands on any streaming service. But nevertheless there are still three videos I'm coming back for on UA-cam once in a while, which are for one this masterpiece, the black and white live recording of 'More' in London and a private recording of 'Sunson' in Brisbane which features one of the most soothing fill-ins at the second half of the song. His music has been a part of my life for the past seven years now - whether I was sad, frightened or in a good state. Thank you so much for all the inspirational work so far and providing such a complex and unique milestone in musical history.
Vers la 36e/37e minute, le temps suspens son vol, et je crois que je ne me lasserais jamais de l'écouter. Et quelle captation incroyable, merci à M.Frahms, et merci aux équipes de Montreux jazz, pour cet oasis de bonheur musical
Was für ein begnadetes Genie!! The Köln Concert von Keith Jarrett hat nun für mich dich den zweiten Platz eingenommen! Habe ihn gerade bei Bettina Böttiger gesehen, ein richtig toller, witzig-klug-sympathi- scher Typ!! Bin begeistert!
reminds me on Klaus Schultze sometimes. He’s got the courage to perform what he’s improvising.. Wish i‘d have that strength to play w my synthesizers before people
47:40 OH MY GOD I'm so happy that I finally got to know Nils Frahm, his music is incredible, like an unforgettable journey.. Great pianist, composer, musician, genius.
Da fuq did I just listened?... wow. As a piano lover and electronic music follower, this dude's work combines most of the stuff I love. Brilliance, magnificience
You are the instrument sir; the piano just a tool. Every method and pure emotion put through it is everything a master of your craft should exhibit. And in my humble opinion, you do it with such a universal beauty that allows us into your process. Since I first heard it over a year ago, I’ve listened to Says at LEAST once a day. For these few minutes alone I thank you.
This version of "All Melody" is slightly different from what ended up being in the record released last year. So impressed by the fact that he's such a perfectionist that every piece of his kept evolving from the first time it was played to a couple of years later, and maybe it won't ever stop evolving. I love this version just as much. The piano solo is so so pretty.
Yep, I agree. Check out the Boiler Room x Dimensions Opening Concert Live Set (ua-cam.com/video/xih8aiacRSk/v-deo.html) for another version. All Melody / #2 / Hammers starts at 24:52 and Nils goes quite hard on the second track. At the last couple of live shows I was fortunate enough to witness, he also played an "evolved" version of Familiar. The track builds up like a giant dark looming wave (like the ones at Nazaré, in case you're familiar with that place) and it seems as if it's going to fall right on your head, but then Nils just does something magical and all your fear just vanishes and turns in to blissful joy instead.
Ich darf Niels Frahm nun am 08.06. zum dritten Mal, live erleben ! Und zwar in der Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg ! In meinen Augen einer der ganz Großen unsere Zeit ! Musik für die Seele !!
I put this music on today at work and I have to say I was extremely amazed by how much my concentration and productivity were improved. Thank you so much Nils for generously share this gem with us all!
It's beautifully unnerving thing to listen the Beethoven or Mozart of your time right there, just making music for we humble humans. Nils Frahm, my man, I am in awe. I am blessed for the experience. You are a genius, in case no one told you today. So please, just keep on doing this same genius music stuff, would you? I really like it. Like, a lot. #beyondcomprehension #chordchanges #divinity
I wrote most of my PhD-dissertation with the help of this concert. Nils Frahm is therefore also in the acknowledgements: "A special thanks goes to Nils Frahm. Your music has enabled me to write every word of this thesis. Thank you for existing, and thank you for creating these inspiring sounds."
Now you must let us know the title of your composition please, and the field if it's not evident.
Génial!
Hoping I'll be able to say the same in a couple of years haha
Nils ❤
I just discovered Nils Frahm and Hania Rani in the space of a couple of days. There IS good in humanity.
As a neophyte, I wonder how long it would take one to become creative using the others' setup?
It's the same case for me.
I came all the way from Tunisia to see this live and I have to say that it was worth it. The most magical moment of my life. Nils has this ability to transport you with his notes. Felt like a trip through time and space.
Thank you for this moment!
I envy you so much for this 😭
I'm so proud of you Nassnouss! :D
Hahahahaaha Fatoum
On est partout! MOUAHAHHAHAHAAHHAAHA
I'm so glad you travelled all the way to see and support Nils. That's the spirit and an unforgettable spark in your life I assume :-)
Saw him in Funkhaus yesterday and this was not a concert it was an event with everything fitting together. The old building that felt like you wander through old memories.

Go and see Nils playing live! See him 4 times and in 2024 again ❤
So this is not a lie or an exagerration, I went to one of his concerts, I closed my eyes and I had an out of body experience, I could see myself and my feelings from a new perspective. And I didn't took any drugs.

we don't need drugs if we have good music and surrender ourselves to it (though some drugs make the experience more intense sometimes)

Magical.

I had tears of joy in my Eyes. Even today I still have Goosebumps all over my Body listening to the Arpeggio and the Chord Progression.
Same here. Incredible piece.
Seeing Nils live was undoubtedly one of the best musical experiences of my life.
Seeing him on this Wed night, I cannot wait!
exactly. I met him in 2019 in Budapest, waiting for that concert for 3 years. An experience of a lifetime.
OH YES, 3h ago Amsterdam and we celebrated him like Jesus with 2x standing ovations. A genius. Just too many people coughing, next time in summer. ;-)
He just played Geneva this week and I am so glad I got to go. No words, except spectacular. I think he might have run a marathon going to all his different machines and keyboards (and the glass harmonica!)

This should be shown to all young people learning the piano: Rhythm is more important than getting all the notes perfect.

Taste differs, and probably there are snobs who approve everything Nils does. But I am a critical music listener, and I do think this is good music.
The beginning is an absolutely amazing smooth way to play the piano ...
Der Mozart unserer Zeit
I never listened to anything like this before in my life, im out of words.
William Syndrome wow so great to hear from a new fan ! I loved his music from the moment I heard it for the first time. Imo Spaces is the best.
Wait until you hear Jacob Collier sing Moon River in headphones.... but this is magnificent
Reminds me a bit of Tangerine Dream
i share with you my piece of piano and electronics, hope you can listen to it!

This kind of music that we all need, that makes us feel alive ! What a wonderful artist...
I couldn't take this sitting down ✨💤🌿
"Says" does it for me every time. There's so much depth in the music I hear something new and different very time I listen.
Brilliant and unique.
I knew some songs from Nils but was never a fan. Except most of the songs with Olafur Arnalds. But I remember exactly the moment, when I saw this video for the very first time, 5 years ago. It was absolutely mindblowing and it got me in another dimension! And today - I am in another dimension again!
Simply a genius!!
+Philipp Straub The way he plays that piano is like he's making love to a man/women. Throbbing with passion.
+Dale I have never made love to a man woman ;-)
+Philipp Straub Yes I love this guy. Really like his solo album on the tall piano
+Ivor Problem And he let his album "Solo" on freedownload like he did with "Screws" : there's no artists as generous with their fans as him.
For almost two years cause of corona-shit I felt not that good and on top of it I punished myself not listening to music. Most songs made me cry and tear up. I am glad I got into it again and feel good. We'll see what tomorrow will bring but odds are in favor. Love that soft Jazz.
God, I love pianists that are so passionate they sweat on stage like they're doing a hard work-out. To often I see musicians performing without giving their all.
This!
If this was filmed during or post covid I bet they wouldn't have so many close up shots of the sweat dropping from the tip of his nose! :-) If I had watched this video 5 years ago I probably wouldn't have been bothered by that image, but now, in the post-covid era, watching this seems to provoke some instinctive disturbing reaction to those drops falling off his nose...
I was blessed to see him live in Hamburg's Elbphilharmony in 2018 (or 2019 ?) from the best seat in the house.
Just directly 1,5m above the main sound engeneering desk, in the middle of the parquet seats.
It was a dreamlike experience!

The passion and energy he puts into his music is breath taking! Absolutely stunning!
Posers have passion and energy too.
That's how I imagine Eternity. Thank You Genius
Przez 40 lat tylko Kraftwerk wzruszał mnie do łez. teraz dołączył NILS FRAHM!!! Jesteś wielkim artystą! Będziesz SŁAWNY!!!
Two concerts in Berlin, several vinyls and physical albums, the whole released world of Nils Frahm at the palm of my hands on any streaming service. But nevertheless there are still three videos I'm coming back for on UA-cam once in a while, which are for one this masterpiece, the black and white live recording of 'More' in London and a private recording of 'Sunson' in Brisbane which features one of the most soothing fill-ins at the second half of the song.
His music has been a part of my life for the past seven years now - whether I was sad, frightened or in a good state. Thank you so much for all the inspirational work so far and providing such a complex and unique milestone in musical history.
Amazing.
32:32 what a track! goosebumps all the way!!
Vers la 36e/37e minute, le temps suspens son vol, et je crois que je ne me lasserais jamais de l'écouter.
Et quelle captation incroyable, merci à M.Frahms, et merci aux équipes de Montreux jazz, pour cet oasis de bonheur musical
Wow! this will be replayed for years to come
Timeless, eternal, beautiful. Music that represent the cosmos
15:45
Nils loves his piano so much...he has to give it the bang bang treatment.
:)
Was für ein begnadetes Genie!! The Köln Concert von Keith Jarrett hat nun für mich dich den zweiten Platz eingenommen! Habe ihn gerade bei Bettina Böttiger gesehen, ein richtig toller, witzig-klug-sympathi-
scher Typ!! Bin begeistert!
reminds me on Klaus Schultze sometimes. He’s got the courage to perform what he’s improvising.. Wish i‘d have that strength to play w my synthesizers before people
47:40 OH MY GOD
I'm so happy that I finally got to know Nils Frahm, his music is incredible, like an unforgettable journey..
Great pianist, composer, musician, genius.
Did you experience this live ? It's basically tectonic
He takes me to another dimension!!
Da fuq did I just listened?... wow. As a piano lover and electronic music follower, this dude's work combines most of the stuff I love. Brilliance, magnificience
this guy is just incredible, its hard to express in words
Thank you so much for sharing this song with us.
Saw him in Paris, the sound is so loud it's going through your whole body, especialy when 33:00 came, amazing feeling !
is there anyone else like Nils Frahm? I cant find anyone as incredible as him. If you have found someone please share.
Maybe Klaus Schulze...
Olafur Arnalds for sure. Alex Somers maybe, or Sigur Ros. If you like Nils' electronic stuff check out Kiasmos.
Some releases from Steve Roach...
Man the effort you put in to your music is incredible, lost for words.
You are the instrument sir; the piano just a tool. Every method and pure emotion put through it is everything a master of your craft should exhibit. And in my humble opinion, you do it with such a universal beauty that allows us into your process.
Since I first heard it over a year ago, I’ve listened to Says at LEAST once a day. For these few minutes alone I thank you.
kann ich immer wieder hören. Genau mein Ding. Vielen Dank für diese Musik!
Seeing him live in Paris was one of the best, if not the best, musical experiences of my life. Hats off, sir.
This version of "All Melody" is slightly different from what ended up being in the record released last year. So impressed by the fact that he's such a perfectionist that every piece of his kept evolving from the first time it was played to a couple of years later, and maybe it won't ever stop evolving. I love this version just as much. The piano solo is so so pretty.
Yep, I agree.
Check out the Boiler Room x Dimensions Opening Concert Live Set (ua-cam.com/video/xih8aiacRSk/v-deo.html) for another version.
All Melody / #2 / Hammers starts at 24:52 and Nils goes quite hard on the second track.
At the last couple of live shows I was fortunate enough to witness, he also played an "evolved" version of Familiar.
The track builds up like a giant dark looming wave (like the ones at Nazaré, in case you're familiar with that place) and it seems as if it's going to fall right on your head, but then Nils just does something magical and all your fear just vanishes and turns in to blissful joy instead.
This became my favorite version of "All Melody". Yes, the piano solo is just unbelievable!
Ich darf Niels Frahm nun am 08.06. zum dritten Mal, live erleben ! Und zwar in der Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg !
In meinen Augen einer der ganz Großen unsere Zeit ! Musik für die Seele !!
this is ART :)
I keep coming back to listen to this amazing performance. Love it.
I put this music on today at work and I have to say I was extremely amazed by how much my concentration and productivity were improved. Thank you so much Nils for generously share this gem with us all!
How in the world can one press dislike for this piece of art?
Got a little Glenn Gould going on there towards the end when you can her Nils humming along to his piano riffs.. love it!
Sortir un concert pareil, quel phare dans la nuit, morceaux après morceaux, une suite de sommets ! La vie au firmament...
It's beautifully unnerving thing to listen the Beethoven or Mozart of your time right there, just making music for we humble humans. Nils Frahm, my man, I am in awe. I am blessed for the experience. You are a genius, in case no one told you today. So please, just keep on doing this same genius music stuff, would you? I really like it. Like, a lot. #beyondcomprehension #chordchanges #divinity
Wie von einer anderen Welt! Danke diesem Genie.
