RELEASE THE PENGUINS

We've all heard of talented pianists, but do you think anyone could ever play something like this?



It's called Faerie's Aire And Death Waltz composed by one John Stump, an apparent crazed genius, and it includes such instructions as "add bicycle", "begin to fall", "gradually become agitated", "remove cattle from stage", "balance your chair on two legs" and the awesome line "RELEASE THE PENGUINS!"

Well, obviously not meant to be played. Here's one that is, then. It even comes with a youtube instructional video that sort of teaches you how to play it!



Wait for it......
0:39, EPIC.

Not something you'd expect someone to be able to play either. Right? AMIRITE?

HANG ON.


OHSHI-

People like these (crazy japanese) make me wonder why there are only 8 grades of piano.

  2. Lol it is? At first glance I thought it was playable... well ignoring the extra instructions like RELEASE THE PENGUINS... =)

    And yeah... But do diplomas and degrees in music really make you a better player of your instruments? I thought musical skill transcends theory... heh =P
