Piano music is boring.

Christmas carols are boring.

However, Beth of She Who Will Be Obeyed posted a 9 minute video of a Christmas carol played on a piano, and it's the most unboring thing I've ever seen/heard in my life.

"Carol of the Bells" as played by Brian Brink.

Despite how jaw-droppingly awe-striking this man is, he's DAMN tough to Google.

I found his "official web site" which is just a piece of flash animation and his contact info.

This PureVolume.com page, with one song and a few pictures.

And his MySpace page with 3 of his songs.

Anyone who knows more about Brian, please let me know.

Or just leave a comment agreeing how completely freakin' awesome the guy is.

By the way, if anyone hires him for a "wedding or event", send me an invitation.

1 Harvey, you are WRONG. Piano music is NOT boring. I know this because I play piano and am never bored by my talent. (Although I must confess the 11 years of piano lessons were not the most enjoyable times of my childhood.) I'll have to video myself and post it to You tube, since apparently piano on you tube is what classifies it as not boring for you.

2 Ok, fine. Piano music isn't boring. Except when it's Mr. Rogers, or when it's background mood music for a soap :-) And I *dare* you to post it to YouTube :-)

4 Thanks for linking to that, and you're right, he's amazing! Even with my short attention span I made it through the whole video.
