Something a little different

When I first saw Interstellar in the cinema I was somewhat disappointed. Mainly due to high expectations from an acclaimed director Christopher Nolan and being interested in all things space related I felt the story-line could have been better. Then on the other hand most of us don’t comprehend a fifth dimension that well along with dialogue in key scenes that was so soft it was easy to miss important context. Which just happened to be another deliberate ploy from Nolan used in this movie for a reason that is obscure to me. Now that I have watched it many times since it has grown on me despite those frustrating quirks. However one thing that went way beyond my expectations was the soundtrack to this movie. Composed by Hans Zimmer a modern day musical genius if you asked any of his fans. The soundtrack was outstanding and his ability to paint a musical picture that fits what you are seeing visually on the screen is a special kind of skill that combines story telling with sound. So that grabbed me straight away, a huge emotive pull like many of the other movies he has composed scores for, such as The Last Samurai and Inception. So when I came across this cover of Interstellar from another skillful you-tuber playing their own interpretation of this simple but at times a complex piece having roots on a Church organ played on a piano I thought deserved a post. Plus this cover played in a train station only recorded on a phone is also worthy of praise despite the audio background noise intrusion which is the reason it’s not the featured version even though I think it’s the best by far due to the way she exhibits that emotional connection to the music also the same for this guy.
