The song so impossible you need 14 people to play it.

What you're watching here is a group of 14 pianists playing a combo of Night of Nights and Death Waltz, which is bloody impossible for one human to play unless they are able to sprout several extra arms. Death Waltz is widely regarded as an unplayable score created by John Stump as a parody of a composition designed to be impossible for a human with 10 fingers to play. It's supposedly designed to "drive the performer insane" with indications such as "release the penguins".

This is what the sheet music looks like:

Yeah. Righto.

Then Night of Nights is supposedly equally as impossible to perform.

So the team in the video posted to YouTube by AL802 decided to combine them in what would have been the most intense group assignment ever.

Just look at their interchange system – it's bloody nuts.

The result of all that planning is an incredibly complex piece of music performed by 14 people who look like they would absolutely slay it in a heated argument via MSN messenger. The video was uploaded a year ago, but has finally gone viral after being posted to Reddit again yesterday. It may not have had any bass drops or Fatman Scoop yelling into a microphone, but my god was it a banger.

It left viewers, as the kids would say, shook.

"Shortly thereafter the piano caught on fire, the players caught on fire, the auditorium caught on fire, everything caught on fire. There were no survivors," YouTuber Blacksun388 said.

What kind of piano for home?

A digital piano with fully-weighted keys is considered the best option, because its keys most closely resemble those of an acoustic piano. It is a good option for pianists who are planning to buy an acoustic piano eventually.

1. The sound

The digital piano produces sound by playing pre-recorded sounds of acoustic pianos. The method and equipments used to record these tracks affect the quality of the sound. A good digital piano should sound warm and less digital, closely mimicking an acoustic piano. With that said, everyone prefers different sound quality, and it is important to choose a piano that sounds nice to you. Apart from the general quality of the sound, you should also listen for the articulation and the decay—the start and the end—of the sound. A digital piano with better control over articulation and decay more closely resembles an acoustic piano and thus sounds more natural.

2. The number of keys

A full-sized piano consists of 88 keys. However, some digital pianos come with only 61 or fewer keys. For advanced piano players, a piano with 88 keys is required. Therefore, if you’re a beginner who’s serious about learning the piano, it is advisable for you to get a full-sized piano.

3. Polyphony

Polyphony refers to the maximum number of sounds that a piano can produce at any time. This means that a piano with 32-note polyphony can produce up to 32 notes at once. Intermediate players should get pianos with at least 64-note polyphony. For advanced pianists, getting a piano with 128-note polyphony or more is desirable. One question that I frequently hear is this: a full-sized piano has 88 keys, why should there be a piano with 128-note polyphony? This is because the use of the sustain pedal allows the piano to produce many notes at once. If you’re playing a long string of notes while using the sustain pedal, the piano could be producing more than 88 notes at some point.
