“All By Myself“ — a 2020 two-piano special (Rachmaninoff + Celine Dion)

To wrap up this challenging year, we present a new music video that captures 2020’s states of loneliness, heartache, and longing: ALL BY MYSELF, a mash-up of Rachmaninoff’s 2nd Piano Concerto and Eric Carmen’s song “All By Myself“ (famously covered by powerhouse pop diva @CelineDion in the 1990s). “All by myself / Don’t wanna be / All by myself / Anymore ...“ In isolation and separated from each other by nearly 3,000 miles for nearly 10 months, we couldn’t have said it better! We hope our mash-up resonates with you during this age of anxiety. Beyond the obvious relevance of the title and lyrics, the recognizable nature of this song coupled with the sweeping romanticism of Rachmaninoff’s textures feed our craving for comfort and connection. Please feel free to sing along with our performance; music like this invites a much-needed collective catharsis, and we hope it carries you forward into the new year with a resurgence of hope. 😘 (Keep an eye out for our dream venue @carnegiehall ✨😉) #peaceout2020 Arrangement, performance, direction, filming, editing, and production by Greg Anderson & Elizabeth Joy Roe.
