DUNE - Main Theme (Piano Version)
Piano Version by Patrik Pietschmann

Actually, I wanted to do the Dune soundtrack much earlier. I had been eagerly awaiting both the film and Hans Zimmer's music since the first trailer came out. And again, I'm overwhelmed by the new sounds Hans Zimmer has created. However, after the first and second listen-through, I was convinced that the soundtrack is too atmospheric and too heavily sound-based to bring to the piano. Nevertheless, when many of you asked for Dune in the comment section of my last video, I gave it a third chance. And suddenly I found a way to arrange the Dune soundtrack for piano that I'm satisfied with. I'm happy with the result now and I hope you are too. My piano version is primarily based on the tracks "Ripples in the Sand", "Paul's Dream", "Leaving Caladan" and "Herald of the Change". The themes and chords contained in these tracks basically run throughout the entire soundtrack. This makes the soundtrack feel very consistent. By the way, do you recognize the ripples in the sand in the background?

Any suggestions for future arrangements? Please leave them in the comments.

I love Hans Zimmer's music.
And when Patrik arranges it, it makes my day.

Me: trying to learn this

My brain: *Fear is the mind-killer.*

[KissTheGreat]

Love how fitting your effect is for this, looks like the spice

Dune is such a epic movie and Hans Zimmer did a awesome job with the theme and you perfectly covered the emotion in this cover.

Hans Zimmer + Patrik Pietschmann = Perfect match. This sounds just like the movie. Love that the lights are the colour of spice.

I learnt 'Paul's Dream' and did an arrangement and everything only to discover he didn't even include it in the official soundtrack lol so i never recorded it, but this was very beautiful thanks. And i agree with your video description completely, it's not the type of soundtrack you can make piano arrangements from, it's more of a soundscape/ambience score, total opposite of something like inception or lion king which are more melodic.

I saw Dune twice in IMAX. It's an experience I'll never forget.

Wie immer: Ein Meisterwerk! Erst wenn man selbst versucht, etwas für das Klavier zu arrangieren, merkt man, wie viel Arbeit eigentlich dahinter steckt.

[NoudvanHarskamp]

Sounds great Patrik!! Excellent work. I should relisten to the Dune OST again. I wasn't really fan of it while listening to the first time but this makes me to listen to it again. Excellent work!

[washed-up]

This arrangement is the most impressive for me, because the soundtrack is so atmospheric and you still mananged to cover it so beautifully and in its full majesty

[magnusegdal]

In the fifth or sixth book of Dune, they reminisce about the piano, saying it was an amazing instrument in how it was able to create order out of disorder. I think this piece is an attest to that as well.

Amazing performance Patrik! Dune's main theme sounds like a part of Interstellar's score for me but on a desert planet like Arrakis. Hanz Zimmer brought his unique touch and you made it hauntingly beautiful.

[MrTardoss]

It's crazy how you never fail to impress me with every uploads. From the visuals that still hit the same after all these years to the accuracy of your arrangements, your technique, music quality ect.. all i can say is that you never dissapoint. Keep it going, Patrik! :)

Also, do you ever make mistakes ? I haven't seen you make one in 6 years 😅
Much love

Vielen Dank lieber Patrik, dass du dieses Meisterwerk für uns arrangiert hast! Dune ist definitiv anspruchsvoll und es ist wirklich toll, dass du es geschafft hast, dieses Stück auf's Klavier zu bringen! ☺️

When i was a non pianist, i was in awe of how people could move their hands so fast, play and arrange beautiful pieces.

A few years later, i'm a pianist, and i'm still in awe.

[gurtuggungor]

NO WAY!!!! I've been waiting for you to cover this since the day I saw the film in the theater! Thank you so much for creating a masterpiece from another masterpiece, this is the best rendition I heard on anywhere. You truly are amazing Patrik, love from Turkey!

[chwemical]

anything by hans zimmer is automatically a masterpiece and i'm impressed at how well you managed to translate the score over to piano

[qcoutlawz]

This seriously gave me the chills and had me stop what I was doing to watch and listen through the whole thing.

[morgoth]

I really hope that this Hans Zimmer's beautiful masterpiece will win an Oscar !
And, like always, you did an amazing work, Patrick !

[stirlingpiano]

You did it! And it was fantastic! Dune has quickly become my favorite score of 2021. You managed to capture the unique atmosphere and sounds of Zimmer’s work excellently! I can especially recognize that distinct “Dune feel” around 2:03 and 4:08. Absolutely loved this one!
