This led us to the creation of a cool hip hop/classical mash-up, but again we could not get permission. Instead of scrapping the great ideas, we used them to create an original tune. You will hear influences and inspiration from other artists. Try and guess them. On the recording, Steven Sharp Nelson laid down over 100 tracks including cello textures never known possible. Every single sound on the video was made using only the instruments shown: piano, cello, mouth percussion and kick drum. We utilized some cool effects on lots of stuff...for example the U2-style delay on Steve's pizzicato at the beginning. The extra string on the electric cellos (the black cello has an extra high string and the white cello has an extra low string) allowed us to cover the full range of the orchestra. The deep bass drum sound is a bump on the body of the cello with a little help from some effects. The shaker sound was created by Steve rubbing rosin on his bow. The record scratch is Steve scratching a quarter on the strings...you get the idea. Special SPECIAL ...

We picked a pop tune at the top of the charts -- one that wouldn't be an obvious candidate for an instrumental cover. "Rolling in the Deep" jumped out at us. The writers, Paul Epworth and Adele, described it as a "dark blues-y gospel disco tune." What could be more challenging for a classically-trained cellist and pianist? We locked ourselves in the studio (ok, not literally) and began work on the introduction. It wasn't working. The end. Just kidding...:-) The song came alive when we found a destined matchup in the melody from Gustav Holst's classical piece "Jupiter"—a deep melody that rang out when layered on top of everything we were creating for this arrangement. To make a long studio-story short, it all came together after that. ALL sounds were created by acoustic & electric cellos (5 different cellos) and piano. By the time we were finished we had used 60 tracks. Here's a link to the VOCAL VERSION! www.youtube.com What song should we cover next? Leave a comment on our Facebook page! Every sound you hear was created by the instruments shown ...

I was performing a song with a full orchestra to a packed house. I remember how exhilarating the music seemed to me. While I was dreaming, it suddenly dawned on me that this was the first time I had ever heard the song I was performing. I quickly woke up to get to the piano before the music got away from me."

Where Are You Christmas? (Live in Concert) ThePianoGuys

While Jon was writing the arrangement, a thought came to him to have a child sing just the last verse. He asked his daughter Sarah. The combination of her beautifully-innocent voice and the love between a father and daughter make this magical. Our wish is that this video reminds you of the ones you love that are hopefully close to you at Christmas time. We filmed this live at a recent Christmas Concert. It was one of our shortest video shoots/edits ever, which was surreal after spending 3 months on Cello Wars!! :-) Piano: Jon Schmidt Cello: Steven Sharp Nelson Voice: Sarah Schmidt ... BTW--This is the same Sarah that inspired him to write Love Story Meets Viva La Vida. :-) Arrangement produced by Jon Schmidt Arrangement written by Jon Schmidt, Steven Sharp Nelson & Al van der Beek Video filmed and produced by Paul Anderson & Tel Stewart Recorded, mixed & mastered by Al van der Beek at TPG Studios Special thanks to.. -Bank of Utah for sponsoring the concert -Rick Baldassin Pianos for letting us use the beautiful Fazioli Piano!

Her husband had come home much earlier than expected and just in time for Christmas. It was an incredibly touching reunion. The audience stood and applauded for several minutes, stopping intermittently only to wipe their eyes. It is a memory we will never forget. This moment had a powerful effect on us -- it helped us to realize how much military families sacrifice to preserve the freedom we take for granted each day. We dedicate this song to these heroic families.

Jon Schmidt - "Waterfall" - LIVE!!!!
Thanksgiving Point, UT 9-5-2009 Yet another brilliant performance by the extraordinary Jon Schmidt playing one of our most favorite songs "Waterfall!" Enjoy!♥
Bella's Lullaby- Cherished Moments- Jon Schmidt
This is a great song by Jon Schmidt from his album A Walk in the Woods. The song is called Cherished Moments. This how I imagine the song Edward says is inspired by Bella, which includes her lullaby, from the Twilight books.
Jon Schmidt's "Waterfall"
This is me playing a contemporary piano piece called "Waterfall" written by Jon Schmidt (the most amazing pianist on Earth). **To any piano players out there, if you enjoy this song as much as I do I would strongly recommend learning this piece. It is rewarding in more ways than one, and the "learning" or "practicing" stages are not so bad, it's actually quite repetative and well written out for easy reading. I encourage you for this challenge, and I would love to see a video of your performance. Shall you decide to make said video, just post it as a video response so I know it's there, and who knows...maybe it'll help with the views too. =] good luck! *More Schmidt recommendations from me are "All of Me" , "Dumb Song", "To the Summit" , and "Song of the Ocean". These are just my favorites, but he has many more. SHEET MUSIC: The sheet music for "Waterfall" can be found on Jon Schmidt's web site (www.jonschmidt.com) for only $0.99. It's way more than worth it. =] He deserves every cent he makes.

Waterfall - Jon Schmidt
This is one of my favorite song from Jon Schmidt. I spent lots of time to practicing that I felt so upset and angry when I practiced this song, coz my hands are not big enough to reach some notes. I've practiced almost 3 and half months(I practice everyday). I try my best to play this song,but I still have some errors... Hope I can really come over those errors later. Special thanks "BJamesThompson"(I got Waterfall's sheet music from him!:)

Jon Schmidt & Neal Middleton - I Do
"I Do" by pianist Jon Schmidt with vocals by Neal Middleton, as found on Schmidt's 1991 album To The summit. Last night in the quiet when our day was through I listened to you sleeping and stayed awake by you and softly through the evening there I spoke your name and told you all the feelings I've had I sometimes see you sitting by the window in the hall or laughing with the children at the little things you saw and lately I've been wondering if it's all I can do to hold you and to show you I do My promise is forever with you And lately I've been wondering if it's all I can do my promise is forever with you My promise is forever "I do."

How to play Jon Schmidt's "All of Me"
By request, I created this tutorial video from an earlier MIDI recording I had made (the same one as used in my All of Me MIDI 3D video). Since this is my own performance, it's not identical to Jon's sheet music, but I tried to clean up the most glaring errors and quantized it to hopefully make it easier to follow. Also note that the sustain pedal is used ad-lib throughout, so don't go by the note lengths alone. It will play through twice, first at half speed and then at full speed beginning at 6:05. Original sheet music is available on www.jonschmidt.com.
Jon Schmidt ft. Steven Sharp Nelson - Love Story Meets Love Story (Viva La Vida)
January 29th 2010. Jon Schmidt ft. Steven Sharp Nelson Live at BYUH McKay Auditorium.

Steve Nelson accompanies Jon Schmidt in the original rendition of Pachelbel at BYU...the cello plays a total of 8 notes throughout the entire song. Here was Jon's and Steve's dialogue: Jon: "Who the heck is Pachelbel...maybe he hated celloists or something..." Steve: "Maybe he wrote the parts for all of the violins and other instruments and then 8 notes into writing the part for the cello...he died. Or, maybe he had a girlfriend who played the cello and their relationship went badly wrong." In addition, we are introduced to Bruce Lee, the cello de "electica." Enjoy!
