Patrik Pietschmann - On the Other Side of the World (Piano Version)
Composed by Patrik Pietschmann

Once again, time has passed faster than I would have liked since the last video. Not only was the completion of this original composition with the piano and orchestral version more time-consuming than planned, but an unexpected phone call also came my way: A good friend, with whom I have been friends since my school days, called me to ask if we would like to go to a concert together. I said yes and he mentioned in passing that he was planning to fly to New Zealand spontaneously for a few weeks and be back on the day of the concert. I was immediately overcome by a feeling of wanderlust. I had long wanted to see the breathtaking landscapes, which most people probably know from the Lord of the Rings movies, with my own eyes. And so, on the spur of the moment and a little hastily, I suggested visiting him in New Zealand. A week later, I was already on the 35-hour flight from Frankfurt to Christchurch, a journey to the other side of the world. Now I'm back and I'm happy to say that the trip through the impressive nature and epic landscapes of New Zealand had a huge impact on me.

Not only personally, but also musically I went on a kind of voyage of discovery this time and so in the orchestral version I pursued the goal of bringing different musical worlds together. And so this original composition became a meeting of orchestra, choir, band instruments, synthesizers and vocals. The piano version also has its own special feature, because this time only the white keys are used. At the beginning there was a self-imposed challenge. I wanted to know how far I could get if I restricted myself to the white keys when composing. This is the result. I hope you like it!

I love how he just makes these songs then plays them on the piano just as good as the orchestral version. He turns 100 instruments into one

33 years old and never had any interest in music whatsoever. Came across this channel a month ago, bought a keyboard the next day, have been practicing every day since and love it. Totally amazing and inspiring Patrik thank you

In this video, I realized, Patrik is the best and smoothest and cleanest and the most articulate and CONTROLLED pianist I've ever seen. Even on the internet. This guys insane.

[Dustin]

Your talent never ceases to amaze me. You have a real gift because this is beautiful.

I don’t usually leave comments, but somehow I felt that I should. I was sitting here I’ve been super stressed since having my little one, he has had a lot of health complications since he was born, he’s almost a year now. And I found a moment to sit down and this song made all of the tension and anxiety and worry about tomorrow drain from my body. It felt like the song was saying everything will work out. And I felt relaxed for the first time in a year. It was a moment of inner peace. I wanted to say thank you for giving me that. This piece brought me to tears and made the stress disappear. You have a talent that I can’t say I’ve encountered in many before. It feels like the songs put the emotions in you, and I really needed that. Thank you.

Ich höre deine Musik jeden Tag auf YouTube und Spotify und freue mich jetzt schon wieder auf deine nächste Veröffentlichung. Du bist ein sehr großes Vorbild für mich und bist der Grund dafür, dass ich vor zwei Jahren selber mit dem Klavierspielen angefangen habe, danke🙏🏻

When this piece will be played again and again, millions of times, will be a familiar masterpiece by humanity

[ncfcaheart]

Patrik, you are INCREDIBLE!! Every time I listen to one of your songs I'm reminded of why I practice every day ;)

[hannahb]

This is amazing! I love how in this one it doesn't just go faster and faster and faster, he slows down to return to the main theme a few times! I wish I could play like that!

[NoahRe]

I can't get enough of your original compositions, I really like the story behind this one.
You're such an inspiration Patrik!!

Hey, I'm from Germany and recently discovered your videos. I am 15 years old and have been playing the piano for 8 years. I know how much work goes into practicing a piece like this. I think you play really wonderfully. Thank you for the effort you put into your videos! It's really nice to listen to you play these songs. ❤ Kind regards
