Patrik Pietschmann - The Way of Hope (Solo Piano Version)
Composed by Patrik Pietschmann

There was a time before my Youtube channel when I had a strong urge to express myself by writing my own music and also to channel my (often rather melancholic) emotional states in it to some extent. I clearly saw my musical future as a composer and not just as an arranger or pianist. I'm very grateful that I had the opportunity to try my hand at some other musical or non-musical disciplines as well. But in the end, I realized that only composing my own music gives me the feeling that I can be 100% myself. There are various reasons why I had changed my goals in the meantime, but lately I feel more and more the need to get back to the composer in me. At the same time, I've always been fascinated and excited by the big, epic sound of an orchestra. And when I came across the music of Hans Zimmer as a teenager, it was clear to me that at some point in my life I would like to be able to write and produce my own music for orchestra. My special friendship to the piano should of course not suffer, so I am looking for a way to combine both passions.

In this video you can hear the pure solo piano version of my original composition "The Way of Hope". The main version was composed and produced for piano and orchestra and is available on all major streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music or Amazon Music. In addition, you can also find the pure orchestra track without piano there.

"The Way of Hope" is dedicated to all those who are currently going through difficult times or have gone in their past. What has been on my mind and challenging me a lot lately is the fact that life is temporary, but offers endless possibilities. Each day brings you and me to new forks in the road where we must decide which path to take. And this path in turn leads to new forks in the road where we have to make important decisions for our life, and on and on. And each time we always carry the hope within us that we have made the right decision for our life, even if there is no certainty about it. In addition, our own life circumstances also depend on the decisions and influences of other people (family, politics, job), sometimes this has positive, sometimes negative effects. Nevertheless, it is important to have the courage to go your own way in life and never give up hope. That is what I would like to express with this original composition musically.

Hey patrik, I couldn't watch the video immediately so I went to spotify to hear what you've done this time and I saw that there's 3 tracks and in that a whole orchestral version! The amount of effort that is put into this must've been crazy! You being an orchestral composer is definitely going to be amazing and I can't wait to see what it brings. You've really outdone yourself this time :)

[Steve-ogcr]

Alright....I'm starting to learn this one tomorrow...I'll be learning it from this video alone, wish me luck! I'll check in on how far I get as time goes.

Thanks for the inspiration, Patrik 💪🏼
If I didn't know this was your original composition, I would say this would be the soundtrack of some big film. Hopefully it will be!
Keep composing if that's what makes you happy. I'm sure everyone here would be happy to hear your originals 👌🏼

Hey man, don't get discouraged by the viewership drop. You're dipping your toes into music creation, and thousands of people are all for it. Don't ever forget that.

Much love xoxo

I am amazed that you didn't follow a path of film/game composition. You could be the next Hans Zimmer!
Its your medleys and original compositions that keep me striving to become a better pianist.
Thankyou Patrik for bringing the most beautiful instrument ever to a place of majesty I never knew possible.

The day Patrick can write his own name as author of the song is a big day. It's a celebration. Keep it up. Madian

[fadyzakhour]

It's shame that this music isn't popular, it is a mix of magic, imagination and hope, you are pure talent in composing, go on.

[safeefamily]

Since I play piano I kinda know how hard it is to compose your own music and make it sound this good
I love this Patrik. Keep it up man.

This song... touches a deep part of my soul
The instrumental version truly brought tears to my eyes, which is a strong statement for me.
I've been studying music for eleven years now, and this is a true work of art.
The depth and emotion are prominent. To be honest, for me, this is on the same level as Hans Zimmer and Steve Jablonsky, two of my favorite composers.
I will definitely be purchasing the sheet music at some point in time

The orchestral version reminds of James Horner. Which is amazing since he made one of the most emotional songs for Avatar ever. Thanks for this masterpiece Patrik ❤. Rest in peace James, we will miss you forever 🕊️

Absolutely beautiful!!! ❤I listened to the solo piano version but then I heard it with the orchestra! 😩👌👌The orchestra takes it to another level. You have to continue composing your own orchestral pieces, you definitely have a knack for it. Really appreciate the emotion, time, and effort you put into this masterpiece.

I love how this is just in a minor common time. Simple and elegant. No exaggeration in emotion or virtuosity in playing showing modesty in what sounds to me like a cinematic masterpiece. You're a gem Patrik!
