I know nothing about piano or classical instrumental, but this piece at 5:28 sounds like a little girl telling a story about her beautiful life.

I think piano is the most beautiful thing that human have invented...

[jucabala]

One thing that fascinates me about Chopin and always have since I was a child, is that the man had the ability to put into notes his feelings. You can hear in the notes the desperation, the sadness, happiness - all the emotion he wanted to express when there was no microphone and all we had was 5 lines to write music on.

My 3 year old with autism absolutely loves this video. She loves piano and these songs calm her down, sending her right to sleep with a little smile on her face ❤
Update:
She is 4 now and has a fantastic ear for music. She has been teaching herself to play by pressing keys and repeating the note/sound with her mouth. It is absolutely wonderful to see and hear. Lessons starting soon! Maybe she will be this talented one day ❤

[saschagoulding]

So many of the beautiful pieces I love are here. I never really thought about them being sad , I 've just admired the talent of the composers, and enjoyed listening to every note. Feeling bless I can hear!

[House_of_Caine]

I wouldn't say Clair de Lune or Gymnopedies are actually sad, they are nostalgic, full of longing, but not really sadness. Maybe more of what is called "saudade" in Portuguese.

[kailser]

I actually dont find them sad, I find them relaxing and so romantic with sweet tones

[xpinkangelx]

I think sad piano songs are my favourite

[andrewstiller]

Beautiful. Although, I don't think of them as "sad." To me, they seem more dreamy and ethereal. Either way, they are all lovely and played to perfection.

[valvenator]

These songs seem more melancholy than sad to me.

Though they'd be pretty sad if I tried to play them :)

[makeupminx]

Me: You can’t be sad and happy at the same time

Debussy: Hold my drink

[MattykVT]

As funny as you come off with your content and personality, you play so beautifully. My piano teacher always wondered why my playing sounded best only at certain times. She didn’t know those were the always the saddest times for me. I hope you’re doing well.

[Empire_of_Lie]

People: Mr. Chopin, how many sad songs were written by you?
Chopin: Yes.

[SAMUELARESTM]

Really like Chopin but there’s something about Debussy that’s just Ethereal and mesmerizing

[PerempuanAja]

When he is looking at his piano, i watch the video. When he is staring at the camera, i read comments

[bret]

This is what I love… I've heard these songs at least a thousand times and yet they still connect with my soul. The majic for me is watching young children or especially teenagers who are hearing these pieces for the first time.

[helenamondragon]

These music make me feel like I’m having a stroll through Paris in the 19th century, or beginning of the 20th, under the rain
