The Imitation Game - Piano Cover

My piano cover of the main theme from "The Imitation Game" starring Benedict Cumberbatch, composed by Alexandre Desplat. Another wonderful soundtrack by a great composer, be sure to give it a listen!

This was done by ear. SHEETS and MIDI are available on my website!
It's free, but sheet music takes a lot of time to make. I'd appreciate it if you support me with a donation!

I love how everybody here is just quoting the movie instead of talking about how AMAZING this cover was. Seriously, you played with such feeling that I could FEEL my throat closing. I am so moved right now.

Music and sad movies don’t often make me cry. Sometimes a bit moved but never emotional. I actually sniffled and choked a couple sobs while listening to this. I am so moved by the feeling with which you play. Thank you for this masterpiece.

Oh my god I've been trying to learn this piece based off of your sheets for so long, and I still am nowhere near how well you played in this video. And this is after 6 years of piano lessons (granted, I quit a while ago)!! The speed! The notes! The musicality! The technicality! I am astounded by how well you play.

I LOVE listening to lots of different film music, especially ones from powerful films because they make the most powerful and emotional music out there and you project that in piece this so much. Absolutely love it!

[BreyerandSchleichDreams]

I watched this video thousand times😍 Love this song!

[DaedalusRE]

Damn dude, you're playing with so much emotion and you transfer it to us. I actually ended up feeling like I had swallowed a tennis ball ( you know, the feeling you have when you watch something emotional and you're about to burst into tears, and you feel like you have a ball down your throat) . Very, very well done

You should try out some Tiersen as well :)

[aliciadori]

literally every movie soundtrack I love and obsess over, you make a beautiful piano arrangement for us. I love you so much

[pachiramen]

I never would have thought that a person with only 2 hands could be capable of playing this piece this well... Excellent job!

[harshitsaini]

one of the best things i've ever listened to, original or cover.

[f.b.]

gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. And that happens often recently

[valentijnluijk]

you're a wizard. just no words for every single time I hear this

[MollyyMcDonalds]

this is incredible!! and the fact it was done by ear is even better. giving me motivation to learn so many new pieces!!!

You really inspire me! The fact that you play by ear, I always play by ear because I don't really know how to read music well. I quit band because I felt like I couldn't read music I could only play by ear so what's the point. I really hated how playing by comes to me as easy as knowing how to walk but reading music didn't and I still can't read music. I only play/ learn things by ear, and it sucks. But you're amazing and this really inspires me. The Imitation game is my favorite movie and the music and everything made me so emotional because I'm so attached to the character and the music.
