I already uploaded my arrangement of this theme back when the original game released but I figured, if Naughty Dog can remake their game, then I should remake my video. :)
Headphones are recommended.
I hope you enjoy.

Composed by Gustavo Santaolalla

Thank you for saying "Yes!" 6 years ago today and for standing by me every step of this journey that is marriage.
There are many ways for one to say "thank you", but I'm not the best with words, and even though I try, they feel inadequate.
So this is the best way I know how to, by playing the piano for you. I hope you like it.
I love you.
Your husband Alex

The soundtrack is composed by Yann Van Der Cruyssen although the menu theme doesn't appear on the original soundtrack.
The first two thirds of my cover are sort of an interpretation of what you can hear in the original. The last third is my 1:1 transcription of the jazzier part that plays when you wait about 7.5 minutes in the menu so definitely stick around until the end.
I really enjoyed transcribing this one and I hope you'll enjoy listening.

It's been a few weeks since my last recording. I had a bit of covid and then had some technical difficulties when I attempted recording again, which lead me to having to re-record this piece.
I hope you enjoy,

Ich weiss dass Waterways dein Lieblingsstück von Ludovico Einaudi ist, und obwohl ich das Stück schon vor langer Zeit hochgeladen hab, dachte ich mir dass im Angesicht von dem was dir so bevor steht, dir eine neue und aktuelle Version eine kleine Freude machen würde.
Bleib tapfer, du bist und bleibst eine Kämpferin. Lass dich nicht unterkriegen. Wir denken alle an dich.
Ich hab dich lieb.
Dein Alex

this is my cover of Nils Frahm's "Me". This time in 4k 60fps, just unfortunately I had the autofocus engaged. You live and learn, next time hopefully without. :)
Also, first video of mine using Native Instrument's "Noire" library, which a tweaked "fragile" setting. Lots of pedalling and mechanic sounds.
Listen with headphones and enjoy.

So I have been putting this one off literally for years, I'm not even joking. Ever since I heard this live version from 2010 I wanted to transcribe it (because the official sheet music to Bye Bye Mon Amour sounds nothing like this).
So here it is. It only took me 10 hours or so to transcribe. I don't know why I didn't just do that years ago, ha ha!
Anyways, as always, I hope you enjoy my cover!

Here is a new video from me, this time I am covering one of Neil Patton's solo pieces from his album "Hammer&Wire".
I apologize for a mistake I made near the end of the piece where I play a B instead of an E in the left hand. Also, I have trouble keeping the pace, I always tend to speed up!
I hope you enjoy my cover anyway.

We hope you like it. :)
~Alex
I hope you have a lovely day today!
Let's go to Venice after breakfast? :)
I love you so much xXx
this is my cover of Einaudi's 'drop'. I wanted to play this for ages and when we stumbled across the sheet music a couple of weeks ago, I finally got around to do it. :)
I hope you enjoy.
~Alex
It is another snow day, I can't make it to work, so what better way to spend the morning than recording the extended version of Einaudi's "elegy for the arctic"?
I hope you enjoy my cover. :)

This is my cover of the solo piano arrangement of the piece Shackleton's Cross by Howard Goodall. I heard it on Classic FM the other day and just had to play it straight away. It has that feeling of melancholy and faded glory, which to me fits very well with what the piece is about.
Here is the description that can be found on HowardGoodall.co.uk :
Scored for oboe, trumpet and chamber orchestra, this work was inspired by a painting by Edward Seago. The title refers to a cross which was erected to the memory of Sir Earnest Shackleton who lead a number of explorations to the Antarctic. Shackleton died in 1922 whilst on a Polar expedition, and the cross can be found on a promontory at the entrance to the bay at Grytviken Whaling Station in South Georgia. The painting is owned by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, and was part of an exhibition at Buckingham Palace from October 2011 to April 2012.
I hope you enjoy my cover,
~Alex
Hello everyone! Again, it has been a while, sorry! We moved house pretty much exactly three months ago into a lovely little barn conversion in the middle on nowhere, and as it goes with barn conversions in the middle of nowhere, they usually don´t have an internet connection. So we´ve been living offline since three months now and it is a little bit of a different life! We do hope that it will get sorted out soon though. In the meantime, we make it work with my wife taking my video to her workplace (including this description, haha!), going in early and uploading it for me. :)
Anyway, this is a little something that I came up with when I was playing random stuff on the piano. I thought it sounded kind of cool and I decided to record it. Only after the fact I tried to think of a name for it and Black Hole came to mind. I hope you like it and please do listen to it with headphones. The bass notes ringing throughout the whole ending can´t really be appreciated properly without headphones I think.
Thanks for watching!
~Alex
Have a wonderful birthday today. I look forward to spending it with you! Down by the sea, with sunshine, fish&chips and ice cream :D
Oh and I hope you like this video I made for you ^_^
(I hope everyone else likes it too)
Happy Birthday again :)
I love you xXx

Here is another improvsation that I came up with many months ago already. As always when I improvise, I don´t bother to set up the camera so I chose to share a picture of my lovely wife Emma that I took last summer on our mini-honeymoon in Exmoor, England.
This recording was initially only made for Emma but she likes it so much that we decided I should share it on here with everyone. :)
I hope you all enjoy,
~Alex
I have no idea if this video is going to be blocked in most of the countries of this earth again, I hope not! It´s just that I used the backing track that is being provided when you purchase the sheet music book for Elements. I have another backing track for "Night" but let´s see first if this is going to be blocked or not!
In case it´s available to watch, I hope you like my cover. Some people might think that the piano is going to be overpowered by the backing track in the end bit, but I quite like the mix as it is. :)
Have a good weekend everyone!
~Alex
Enjoy my cover of Ludovico Einaudi's "Ronald's Dream" from his album "In a Time Lapse".
Have a great weekend! :D

Here is a piano duet of Noud and me, covering the Beauty and the Beast.

Here is my cover of Ludovico Einaudi's 'Exit', from his album 'Eden Roc'.
I don't know if the timing and tempo are right, somehow I never heard the original recording.
Anyway, as always: Enjoy my cover and please listen with headphones and watch in HD for the best possible quality.
~Alex
Yet another Einaudi-piece, this timefrom his Elements-album.
I am sorry for the extremely grainy video, I should film with sufficient lighting next time!
I hope you enjoy the music though!
Alex
Here is another piece from Einaudi`s album "In a time lapse".
Please listen with headphones, I promise it is worth it. Since my latest 5 or 6 videos or so I have been using the Synthogy Ivory II software, the "American D" edition to be specific.
I hope everyone likes my cover.
~Alex
I hope you enjoy this cover of Gavin Greenaway's Smoke. The first collaboration with Emma this year :)
Listen with headphones and watch in HD for the best quality, thanks!
