Kung Fu Piano - Cello Ascends | ThePianoGuys

I remember when I watched Kung Fu Panda for the first time, not really expecting much, and slightly lamenting the way Chinese martial arts culture was reduced to unrealistic portrayals by animals that were not even native to China.

But when Master Oogway rose to the heavens I could not help but shed a tear because the music that accompanied it was simply moving - the lonely erhu bringing both him and my emotions to new heights. 

A couple of years later, I chanced upon this cover of the song by ThePianoGuys - filmed on the Great Wall of China, no less. After the initial riff the song sped up to incorporate Frederick Chopin's Prelude Op. 28 No. 20 in C minor (and everyone knows Chopin is my favourite composer ^^). I don't often listen to music without lyrics, but this melody - oh lord - it is the soundtrack of my dreams. 😍

Have a listen!

I've just listened to and seen this amazing song. How wonderful it is! I can feel the music rushing through their minds and hands. It's so powerful and beautiful at the same time.
