Schindler's List - Main Theme (Piano Version)
Piano Version by Patrik Pietschmann

After "Jurassic Park" and "Harry Potter" this is my 3rd video with music by John Williams. The Theme from "Schindler's List" is probably one of the most famous by John Williams. Since the original film is black and white, I also decided to make my video black and white. I hope you like it!

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

The fact that the youtube line is red and its slowly walking to the song's end, alone, makes this more beautiful

I can't believe you made one of my favourite soundtracks.
I'm not crying, it's the rain

"Without John Williams, bikes don't really fly. Nor do brooms in Quidditch matches. Nor do men in red capes. There is no Force. Dinosaurs do not walk the Earth. We do not wonder. We do not weep. We do not believe. John, you take our films, many of them about our most impossible dreams, and you make them real for billions of people."
-Steven Spielberg on John Williams

Schindler's List is a piece of art. It makes me cry every time I see it. The theme specifically reminds me of Oskar crying in Stern's arms because he thought he could have done more than what he already did. It's just incredible to see a German person that opposed the Holocaust, save so many Jewish people.
Love the movie and love the theme song. It touches my heart every time.

"Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire."

"Who saves one life - saves the whole world."

Gets me every time. Also, nice decision going with the black and white of the film. Not sure if you did it seeing as I'm not finished with the video yet, but it would be cool if you included one random red note somewhere in there.

For those who are missing a representation for the "Girl in Red": Check out the Youtube progress bar while watching the video and you'll find it. Thanks to @Twisted World and @Jonathan Rowe for the hint.

Great video, but little disappointed because of the missed chance to include a single red note.

I played this in front of my class last week and my girlfriend actually started to cry while i did that. Thank you so much Patrik for this masterpiece - it is not the first and hopefully not the last of your arrangements that i´ve played. <3

Very touching... Schindler's List is one of those movies you just have to watch. Such a touching tribute to the victims of the holocaust and the heroes who fought to save as many as possible.

[Berdouche]

You made in black and white, you are the best

[missxy]

I hate the past of my Country. As a german, the Holocaust, Auschwitz etc. is so near. Even if I have nothing to do with all of this since I haven't even existed in this century, I always feel so bad when I hear something about the past of germany.
We just watched Schindler's list in Religion class and I love the film. And the music. My heart 💔

[pavelkometa]

John Williams is a genius. And this theme is an absolute masterpiece.

[gatsbywasasimp]

I love how he plays with such care and delicacy; he’s not like attacking the keyboard.

[zoe.h.nelson]

What a beautiful soundtrack for a masterpiece of a movie. Schindler's List hit me harder than pretty much any other film I've seen, and inspired me to become a better person. Spielberg truly showed his genius in this one.

[ianbeel]

Only two times I've ever cried from age 18 to 34 now in films is The Green Mile, and Schindler's list. It's impossible not to. Specially with fantastic music like this. Such a good piece here. Brilliantly played. Feels like emotion was thrown in too.

[hermajesty]

Absolutely beautiful, Patrik.

This is my favourite soundtrack ever, for the way in which it masterfully paints such a delicate and yet heartbreaking picture. This brought tears to my eyes, just as it should.

Thank you so much for performing this. You have really captured the heart of this piece - I believe John William's would be proud.

[TheFlamingPiano]

Black and white, nice. Good arrangement, I wanna try either this or Mercuziopianist's version! I once played this with a violinist!

[ra]

Beautifully done. One of John Williams’ most original, beautiful pieces. Tears every time

[marisabel]

This theme ALWAYS gets to me, no matter where i am, my eyes just start leaking ever single time.
Makes me imagine all those families who where destoyed, separated never to meet again and oblivious to the fact that they where being exterminated, all those children and all that fear... I try to think if it was my family and it breaks me.
It's hard to imagine that something like genocide actually happens.
