Katsoin The Piano Guysien konsertin ja oli pakko tulla kirjoittamaan postaus kun tämä biisi iski taas suoraan jonnekin.
En tiedä mikä tässä biisissä on mutta se pistää itkettämään. Aina. Tässä on vain jokin. Mutta en ole ainoa. Sellisti Steven Sharp Nelson tuntuu myös aina itkevän tätä soittaessa ainakin on itkenyt niissä kaikissa konserteissa joissa olen tämän kappaleen kuullut. En tiedä johtuuko se hänen tunnelatauksestaan vai mistä mutta kyyneleitä vuodatan itsekin. Enkä oikeasti tiedä miksi... Tässä biisissä on vain sitä jotain selittämätöntä.
Tällä biisillä on tarina:
"The American Heritage Lyceum Philharmonic (nuoriso-orkesteri) ja sen johtaja Kayson Brown otti The Piano Guyseihin yhteyttä ideansa tiimoilta. Siihen rakastuttiin. Se yhdisti kaksi asiaa joita myös yhtye on yrittänyt toteuttaa - tutustuttaa ihmiset klassiseen musiikkiin ja innostaa nuoria muusikoita. Steven Sharp Nelson oli toiminut solistina orkesterin kanssa aikaisemmin ja rakastui orkesterin henkeen ja osaamiseen jota nuoret (13-18 vuotiaat) toivat esiin. Yhdessä orkesteri ja yhtye toteuttivat idean "Beethoven's 5 Secrets" (Beethovenin 5 salaisuutta) joka yhdisti OneRepublicin biisin Secrets Beethovenin melodioihin ja teemoihin kaikista Beethovenin viidennen sinfonian neljästä osasta.
Teoksessa käytettiin 5 erilaista melodiaa 4:stä osasta Beethovenin viidennestä sinfoniasta (jättäen pois siltaosan jonka orkesteri soittaa teoksen keskivaiheilla).
Mitkä ovat Beethovenin salaisuudet? Hänellä oli monia. Hänen suurin salaisuutensa jonka hän yritti epätoivoisesti peittää julkisuudelta ja joka sai hänet vaikuttamaan hyvin omalaatuiselta, ärtyisältä sekä erakolta oli hänen ns. heikkoutensa. Hän oli kuuro suurimman osan elämästään. Kuvittele... yksi suurimmista säveltäjistämme joka on elänyt keskuudessamme ei juurikaan kuullut mitään. Ja silti hän kirjoitti maailman hienoimmat teokset kuuroutumisensa jälkeen. Hän uskoi että taiteessa itsessään oli "salaisuuksia" jotka piti pakottaa esiin jotta pystyi toteuttamaan suurinta taiteen tasoa. Ei ole epäilystäkään etteikö Beethoven löytänyt monia näitä "salaisuuksia" taiteesta - ihmiset joka puolella maailmaa kuuntelevat häntä joka päivä. Hän oli todellinen musiikin mestari, Jumalan siunaama. Tämä teos ja video on omistettu hänelle." (The Piano Guysien Youtube kanavalta)

12th song is The Piano Guys - Beethoven's 5 Secrets
I was watching The Piano Guys concert and I had to come and write this blog post because this song hit me somewhere and deeply, again.
I don't know why, but this song makes be cry. Every time. There's just something about this song. But I'm not the only one. It seems that the cellist Steven Sharp Nelson also cries every time he's playing this song, at least he has cried in all those concerts I've seen him on playing this particular song. I don't know if it's because of his emotional burst or what, something is making me cry too. I really don't know the reason... There's just something inexplicable in this song.
This song has a story:
"The American Heritage Lyceum Philharmonic (Youth Orchestra) and its director, Kayson Brown, approached The Piano Guys with this idea. They loved it. It combined two of the things they are working to accomplish - inviting people to classical music and inspiring young musicians. Steven Sharp Nelson had soloed with the orchestra the previous year and loved the spirit and the talent that the orchestra showed at such young ages (ages 13-18!) Together they developed the concept of "Beethoven's 5 Secrets," combining OneRepublic's tune "Secrets" with melodies and moments from all four movements of Beethoven's 5th Symphony.
They used 5 different melodies from the 4 movements of Beethoven's 5th Symphony (not including the "bridge" the orchestra plays in the middle).
What are Beethoven's secrets? He had many. His most prominent secret that he desperately tried to keep from the public and that caused him to be considered extremely eccentric, irritable, and hermit-like was his "weakness." He was deaf during most of his life. Imagine that... one of the greatest composers that ever lived could hardly hear. And yet, he wrote his life's greatest works after becoming deaf. He believed that art itself had "secrets" that had to be "forced into" in order to obtain art's highest level. There is no doubt Beethoven discovered many of the "secrets" of art - people alla over the world enjoy them every day. He was a true master of music, blessed by God. This piece and video are dedicated to him." (From The Piano Guys Youtube channel)
The Piano Guys will be on this list again someday. I'm sure of it. Then I will tell you how I got to know the band.
