Piano Man it’s Mario month mate 👍
Piano Man it's sooo good
ALL OF THEM WOW WTF
It's both technically. November is always #ZeldaMonth
Congratulations for 5000 subscribers! Your arrangements are beyond impressive; your timing and taste for each piece is spot on. I'd say you're easily comparable to the bigger piano channels like Animenz XD
The great fairy part was a masterpiece
Master Sword YES
YES
Master Sword You speak truth. Wise man😂
This whole thing is a masterpiece.
It was more than a masterpiece...
You know I hate when people say “video games are a waste of time” I can see where some are but The Legend of Zelda was worth every minute I spent playing. Mostly because the imagination it inspired in me and most of all the music. The game is the reason I bought a quality ocarina to learn to play and want to learn piano so I can play Ganon’s tower theme. Majorca’s mask and Ocarina of time were masterpieces and the music is what fuels my care for those games to this day. God Bless Koji Kondo.
Totally agree. Those games are my life, I've played them since I was three 😂
majorca 😂😂
I totally agree with ya all xD.
Even the Water Temple is still a lot of fun. Despite its flaws, it's a very well designed temple.
The feelings these games inspire in our hearts is what makes them worth every second!
It's dangerous to watch this alone! Take this!

You literally told the entire story without saying a word. This is art at its finest.
Fr
What is this supposed to mean lmao
@@Konayo_ The pianist didn't need to say a word about the story because the music spoke for itself.
Lost an old friend in a car accident a couple days ago and he’s who got me into Ocarina of Time back when we were about 5 years old. This brought back so many wonderful memories. Needless to say I was full blown sobbing by the middle of Great Fairy’s Fountain. Thank you so much, this music means a great deal to me.
No...
Sorry
K
Tomas Elizondo 5 years old huh 🤔
Boss Baby Yup
That fairy fountain rendition was insane. Amazing job, man!
for real, feels like improvisated, I can't stop listening
I just finished learning the actual etude by Erik c, and it is so satisfying to be able to play in front of people
@@cdrool5710 Nicely done! I will need to keep practicing and hopefully be able to play it sometime as well!
It moved me to tears...
I love the way Gerudo Valley sounds on a piano. So nostalgic
İ felt like i've heard that a thousand times but i forgot it was from legend of zelda, nostalgic af
Still better on the guitar though
Cannot even fathom how hard you must have worked to get to where you are today. Mind blowing.
Ocarina's title theme makes me cry every time.
It breaks my heart. It truly does.
I dont but i feel like crying😢
I feel like hearing that title theme is one of my happiest childhood memories.
Didn't realize how much I needed to hear this. Got 8 minutes of my childhood back. Thank you.
I love how the dynamic transition between Great Fairy's Fountain and Lost Woods happens. A heavy, intense atmospheric melody of the most pure beauty becomes a cheerful, fast paced translation piece of a child trying to comprehend his true place in the world.
4:47 the transition was so beautifully violent. I loved it.
That one dislike was from someone’s nostalgic tear
Look like 9 more nostalgia tears joined the pool
Those few dislikes are from Ganondorf
Sons of ganon 😂😂👹
lol you mean their 63 nostalgic tears!
140 nostalgic tears, you really made so many people emotional!
2:55 - 3:30 is my favorite bit of piano playing I have ever heard. Not exaggerating. I know it's a cover, but you really made it your own.
Your "Fairys Fountain" literally brought tears to my eyes it was so amazing. You sir are an incredible pianist.
I saw the synthesia version of this first and I thought " Well this clearly isnt meant to be played by human hands, just by a program." Then I clicked the "Link"(Get it?lol) that led me here and now im not sure if im in awe, in love, or suspicious you may not have human hands. Probably all three though. This is beautiful and incredible, you are seriously talented. And thanks for taking me back to my childhood!
He really did it with this mechanism called hand 😣😍
It's totally possible to do with human hands... It's not that hard compared to a lot of other pieces that he himself has played.
I'm not even exaggerating. This is absolute perfection, and I'm so happy you made and shared this. The transition between pieces and those beautiful runs... my nostalgic heart is so happy right now ;v; ♡
Happy early 5k - I can't wait to hear what you come up with next! ♡♡♡
mewsic glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the wonderful comment!
I'm okay with you the is the PERFECTION
mewsic I
i started crying watching this.
How is that even physically possible it’s beautiful
Probablemente esto se pierda en la inmensidad de comentarios, pero siempre al escuchar éstas melodías me invade una gran nostalgia, de cuando solía disfrutar las cosas, de cuando se solía ser más feliz, de cuando la vida se veía más sencilla.
Hagamos viral este comentario en español, al menos te encontre en el fondo, y te vere mas adelante en los primeros coments :")
@@purawata8488 Gracias, mi rey. Un abrazo
@@Mojaress y uno mas grande para usted, se le quiere
tienes razon es una joya
tal cual, cuando solíamos disfrutar las cosas.
I have legit watched this over 200x and still cannot believe a human being on planet earth could play that blindingly luxurious great fairy fountain theme
You should be very proud of this amazing thing you've created. You'll have this for the rest of your life, man. Much respect.
GOD BLESS HE GAVE THE SHEET MUSIC. GIVE THIS MAN A LIKE AND SUB
Videos like this should not have a dislike button on them.
Yea
Rawr
That's True.
The dislikes might be from all the extra notes he’s adding
true
That Theme Song will always hit hard because you would hear it when you were small and had not a care in the world. Such simpler times
The main theme hit me like a ton of bricks. I get goosebumps every time I hear that tune. Well done!
I got emotionally invested in the Great Fairy’s Fountain movement 😭😭😭
The “secret sound” in the end was key for perfection. I was trying to figure out what was my favorite part but I cannot. Love your work!
Man this got me in tears for real, my whole childhood and good memories all came back... Thanks my man, i'll remember this, you have my deepest gratitude
2020 and I still remember this game like it was yestersay
The title theme sent waves of nostalgia, thank you.
It'd be fantastic if you continued with the Great Fairy's Fountain and made it's own, whole piano piece. Astounding work *clap clap*
Maybe I will in the future, but not for a little while.
@@ErikCPianoman please
Kyle Landry did something like this. Search "Kyle Landry Fairy Fountain"
@@ErikCPianoman most amazing rendition of the great fairy fountain theme. just wow
CSFlare the deed is done. I finally got around to making that stand alone cover of the great fairy fountain.
Omg this whole vide was great but starting at 2:53 you just unleashed god mode and started going ham! That was awesome definitely deserves more subs!
Murky One plpp
so nothing before?
I am replaying like I have nothing more to do but dreaming one day I could do this part 😏🙄
Yes
Every time I hear that intro, my spine shivers with nostalgia.
chryobyte ive never even played this game. first time I heard it I went crazy wondering what it’s called so I can hear it again. I wonder what it is about it that makes it naturally nostalgic
Same
@@chrisreyes6672 dude, I remember playing Ocarina Of Time on an an emulator on my mom's Samsung tablet when I was like 7, and from there on out I got so nostalgic any time I heard certain Zelda songs, like the opening title for OOT and the original Zelda theme. You really missed out on your childhood but you can still get multiple emulators on certain sites and ROM's to play any classic Nintendo/console game you want
One of the best melodies of Zelda on piano I've heard, great selection, really brought back some memories. Thanks for uploading.
I was starting to think "hey! I could maybe play this!" And then fairy fountain happened.
Legit beautiful medley though! Gonna be listening to this for a while!
Same
Dont let that dishearten you if you have a passion for it. You practice that one song you will learn it. It just take a long time. I learnt to play a song called tarantella and i am terrible at reading sheet music.
no normal human can do that 😨
this is so incredible i cant really comprehend the amount of talent and hardwork.
Resident Evil Talk thx. Glad you liked it. I just got back from visiting family for the holidays so expect more covers soon!
This is so beautiful! This makes me wish I was alive when Oot came out! However, I love this game as much as the people who were around at the time! Still plays an important role in my childhood! Knowing that someone has dedication and talent to recreate the beauty of Zelda music truly makes me so happy! Keep up the great work!
it pleases me that people who weren't even born when LOZOOT was released still see it as the amazing game it was (people other than my daughter who is 8 and fricken loves the game :) )
Same I’m 16 going on 17 and wasn’t about for the release of this game but it’s still my fave of all time
I'm also a huge fan of Oot, even though I was born in 2003. I still play it to this day on the Wii Shop Channel port with a GameCube controller. The game is great, and the music is even better.
Be thankful you were alive when Breath of the Wild came out! For all the nostalgia OoT has attached to it, I consider them equally great! You can't beat OoT for atmosphere and amazing design, but the world and game design of BotW is unparalleled.
I'm really glad to hear you're enjoying the game. I was quite young when it came out and never got past the third dungeon at the time, eventually decided to do a full run of the game a few years back and still loved it.
the wave of nostalgia that hit me from hearing the serenade of water actually brought tears to my eyes, this medley is absolutely fantastic ❤️❤️❤️
I may only be 13 but I still cried tears of sweet nostalgia while listening to this
My dad was always a Nintendo fan when he was younger and sometimes he would play the Zelda games for my sister and I to watch,(we were super young like 4 or 5) anyway one year I decided that I would try to beat ocarina of time. I got in the wii and started it up, I still remember hating jabujabu and despising the water temple. Those are the most vivid memories of my childhood’s childhood. Come to think of it I never did beat Gabon I tried and tried to beat him but never could. I think I’ve been inspired here to try again though and finish what young me started.
"Gabon" 😂 Jk
Men, you make me cry lol xd, I'm so grateful that you made this medley, thanks to you I've start to remember all those peaceful days with my nintendo 64 when I was kid, You're great!
Gerudo Valley was really amazing. You have so much talent!
i am always so impressed and in awe of your takes and reharmonizations/covers/whatever the appropriate musical term is for how you interpret already composed music and make it your own. it's always really exciting and interesting and beautiful -- i legitimately lost my breath at the great fairy's fountain theme! i loved this, thank you for sharing it with us.
Thx! I put my best foot forward with my arrangements. Glad you liked this nostalgia filled tour of the OoT soundtrack.
My son used to stay over every weekend, he was 7 when ocarina of time first came out. Even though I wanted to play it so bad during the week....I waited, because he loved it just as much as I did and we traveled every corner of hyrule together. Thank you for reminding me how special this was (and still is) to my life. Outstanding!!!!
It’s a shame how saturated the world is with superstar pianists like yourself; it must be difficult to stand out in the piano community. This was beautiful thank you so much for sharing!
the "nostalgia" in the title is so strong, i feel this overwhelming satisfaction in my heart when i hear the opening theme of oot
1:30 Song of Storms
A, Down-C, Up-C, A, Down-C, Up-C.
A ↓ ↑ , A ↓ ↑
So What?
@@juancarlosrodea9743 bud i guess you haven't played ocarina of time. Same on you. A true fan would recognize the pattern, as simple as it is
@@jerp1367 i finish ocarina of time and i am a fan but i comment because you need to learn the song in the game to use it
@@juancarlosrodea9743 Precisely. This guy's comment was nostalgic and great, so why must you say "So What?" Makes you seem clueless about what it is
Why did he lose touch with Saria??......
This was absolutely wonderful!! So many of your transitions had me in actual tears, it was absolutely lovely! Thank you so much for sharing it with the world
3:20 This just sounds so perfect. 3 years late, but better to discover something late than never.
I've watched this so many times and I still keep coming back. Each time is just as beautiful as the first time I saw it
I've always loved Zelda's soundtrack but you just took it to another level oh my god it's so beautiful. You do an amazing job, keep going at it, I love your arrangements!
Thx. Will do. More videos to come.
I've been waiting for this! You did the music justice:) Hmmm I need to get working on this video's counterpart, the Majora's Mask Medley...
Thx man. And yeah. Get working on that. Expecting something epic.
Your technique and finesse on the piano prove mastery over her. It was such a joy to hear these songs that I have grown up played with such skill. Keep it up!
Great Fairy Fountain theme (02:13) is so damn beautiful. The usage of half steps gives the song an eerie feel.
Thank you for giving the right to download the sheet freely! Finally something hard on UA-cam I will be able to learn
I listen to this everyday
I’ll be honest, I never played ocarina of time, but just hearing the music makes me wish I did. I never really listen to game soundtracks but Zelda has some of not the best music, and that’s why it’s so memorable. You here these songs and you remember when you were young and the only thing that mattered was you just got the new legend of Zelda for your Nintendo 64 and you feel that happiness, that joy of getting to play another adventure. Just the other day I beat dark souls remastered and I cried, because as i killed gwyn, the song reminded of my first time playing the game, and how happy I felt when I finally beat gwyn after so many days of trial and error. It showed me that gaming isn’t just about graphics and cool features, but the soundtrack and emotional ties to everything. When I played the last of us, I barley shed a tear, but when I finally finished off the souls series I cried. But just hearing this games soundtrack and all other games in the legend of Zelda series I gives me that sense of emotional ties, even though I’ve only played twilight princess and breath of the wild. Recently I’ve been noticing that’s games are going downhill, as in games are just getting more boring now. Like with every shooter, pick the biggest gun and shoot anything that moves is the way to play. We need a company, or anyone really, to bring gaming back to what it was, about making memories with your friends and emotional ties to the games that we all love to play. I’ll even say we need another Zelda like series but with it’s own originality, we’re the music brings you in and the characters lock you into the game, or like dark souls were the true emotional value is prevailing against all odds and giving you that sense to keep going no matter what. Now I just realized I wrote this in less time than my school English final, which isn’t very shocking.
stupidoughnut beautiful essay, 10/10 would read again
Games aren't going downhill. You're just stupid.
There are more companies making games than at any time in the past with more quality control than any time in the past and now a huge flourishing market of indie studios. Games are getting better and better you just aren't looking in the right places. The same studios don't make good games in perpetuity it has never been like that. Not a single studio has the rep it had 10, or even 20 years ago.
If you just stick to the same games yeah you will notice they might decline in quality or you might get bored of exhaustion but games are not getting worse. Even with the bad shit the industry has now for problems it will never be like the video game crash which was caused by 0 fucks 0 quality control 0 variety.
Best game in history, masterpiece in every department, even in graphics at the time, unlike BotW I am afraid
I don't know why, but your essay and this video kinda makes me want to LARP Zelda.
You are truly a fantastic pianist.
I love that you always try to post sheet music! I really hate it when pianists are stingy with their sheets and demand $15+ for a single song, or won't offer them at all. You are one of the very few who is really looking out for fellow pianists and that's something I really admire.
Keep it up!
Yeah I hate it when people charge exorbitant amounts for a single song. Though I don't know when I'll find to write this one down. I haven't even started the sheets.
Stephen Williams sheets are out now. Happy playing.
@@ErikCPianoman up
*Do you want to give your Rupees?*
> *Yes* *No*
Now you have 69.
You should stop before you go too far...
Do you want to give your Rupees?
Yes Shut up and take my money
You may need to upgrade your bag... you have almost 300 Rupees dear Hero of the Pillows
Damn imma have to say yes
I just love Zelda Music on Piano. Great work Erik, it never gets old. I wish there were longer Medleys like this, I would listen to it all day.
I actually played ocarina of time on the gamecube with the collectors edition for my first time!
Wow that really is amazing, you should also try the N64, where all the memories rest... Collector's edition was quite a hype for me though!
Every single video you upload is a work of art! Completely phenomenal playing. I get excited every time I see a new upload from you!
Kai P thx. Glad to know I have such loyal viewers!
This arrangement is flawless and truly epic! Definitely one of my favourite piano channels on UA-cam.
Thx man. Glad you liked this nostalgic tour of some of the music from my favorite video game franchise.
I appreciate the accuracy of all the melodies. A lot of other pianists on youtube always try and change it all up but this is really nice.
This soundtrack takes me straight back to my childhood, such a happy and carefree time getting lost in one of the best games ever created. Excellent job!
Koji Kondo is one of the greatest composer of our time.
He make every melody so iconic.
Well this guy made it 10 times better
Gerudo Valley was amazing! You need that by itself so I can just leave it loop!
OMG! You play with such passion! I love this!!
I wasn't ready for how hard you went on great fairy fountain. Great job!
Absolutely stunning
I'm not crying, you're crying!
Wow. Subbed. Amazing !
Thx, and welcome to the channel.
Hyrule dude?
an absolute masterpiece. words will never do justice. fantastic work.
I'm not gonna lie most of this gave me literal chills. Definitely subscribed
This is probably the 20th time I’ve listened to this over the years and it never fails to amaze me. I always start to tear up in the end. Absolutely phenomenal
i had this playing in the background as i was doing schoolwork, then the Great Fairy Fountain started playing and my jaw dropped! i had to stop what I was doing to see you play! This is just stunning!!
Seriously? This is one take? Amazing.
travbrack yup. Thx. XD
I could hear navi: "hey listen"
I wish there was an option to turn her off.
I'm listening to this again for the new year. It gives me positive energy. Have a great year 2018 :)
Yoan Vendittelli thx. Happy New Year to you too. Here’s to 2018 🎉! Hope it rocks.
That Title theme will forever send me straight into my childhood. That first time I ever discovered this game and booted it up. It would set the stage for the rest of my life
Thank you very much for this beautiful, nostalgic moment! It‘s unbelievable how good the soundtrack of zelda ocarina of time was, as a kid i didn‘t realized it.
Tremendous talent... one is forced to simply BE there with my jaw floored in the ground in helpless admiration of such a wonderful thing...👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
IMO the best Medley/Recreation of Zelda (Performed with true emotion). Ironically I have never played Zelda, I want to.
Ocarina of Time is a great starting point! You should give it a try. Windwaker too. Botw is amazing as well! A Link to the Past is the quintessential top down Zelda experience. So many options.
Piano Man where do I play it though, i dont own any Nintendo products. Are there emulators of these games now?
Benjamin Round well. I would suggest getting a used 3ds or 2ds. Then you could play 3ds remaster of ocarina of time or majors mask. A link between worlds is supposed to be amazing as well. However if you want to emulate them. You’ll have to ask google my friend.
2:51 thats when u know somethings about to go down
(also, you're very good at piano, my favorite part was the great fairy fountain, it just blew me away)
Literally got major chills listening to this
Gerudo Valley was a masterpiece. I got the chills all over my body. Great fairy one. The beginning load screen song. All of it. What magically music for such a magically game. Every second of this was pure 🔥
You found a new sub that will love your music. Sounds awesome
I love it!!! Fantastic!!! And thank you so much for posting the sheet music! 🤩
2:50 my man threw down some serious fairy fountain music. Highly impressed
Hey Eric, I just wanted to say that I have been learning this piece for 3 months now, and I realize just how much effort you put into this song. I just wanted to say thank you for taking time to compose and play this beautiful piece. Thank You!
the great fairy composition made me teary-eyed, i’m speechless
Noice! I'm a huge Ocarina of Time fan. I even learned ocarina to make my OoT Medley. Great job. :D
Same!

Thx. Welcome to the channel! It's enthusiastic viewers like you who keep this channel alive.
This brang back so many childhood memories, the late nights with the grandfather.... thank you for not only doing this but doing justice to it❤
Wow this was beautiful I was just going through videos and couldn't click away for the whole 8 minutes
This... this... I have no words...
As a musician, Its been a very long time since a piece has made me weep. I didn't cry playing graduation for my upper-classmen friends. I didn't cry at the conclusion of my last parade in high school, I didn't cry playing red river valley on the anniversary of my friends death. I was ugly crying a few measures into the title theme
Just proves how beautiful Koji Kondo's music really is.
You're saying if I quit playing the video games so much... and invested the time in to learning the piano... I too, could achieve this skill...?
Interesting.
best version out there. i love how he's not trying to show off too much, and the buildups are spectacular
This is the most beautiful piano rendition of Ocarina of Time I've heard. It made me cry remembering that wonderful game, and is such a fine piece of music itself. Thank you.
