Man.... will you *stop* being so epic? Make at least a small mistake somewhere. Please. I *must* have something to nag about :(
This is just too good to be true. (And there I go again, crawling toward the organ to practice more and hope to ever reach 25% of this sort of playing....)
Hallo David, das ist mit Abstand die beste Version von Tico Tico, die ich jemals auf einer Orgel gehört habe. Wunderbar orchestriert, perfekt gespielt! Ich kann's mir immer wieder anhören.
To say that this video was awesome would be a great insult to you. Perfection is possible after all. I must agree that this is the best version of this song I have ever heard.
This is by far the best version of this song on YouTube. Have to agree with the others, the relaxed tempo really makes a difference and lets your creative arrangement show. Great!
William, I am SO glad to hear someone like you say nice things about both the arrangement AND the tempo! I always thought this song was played too fast (very often for the player to "show off") -- and I also wanted to use sounds "other" than organ. Thanks for listening!
Interesting at a much slower version, but sounds great! Have you ever use the orchestrated background styles? I used them on my Wersi Pegasus all the time as it has helped me write sings.
Wow, I just had an eye opening moment. I was looking at your channel only to discover that you are 'the' Dunlap of 'Dunlap and Pennington'! I have seen a couple of clips from your show - great fun. I also ordered your CD so that I can listen to your great tunes in the car going to/from work!
Well done David. That is a refreshing version of the song that seems to be the staple for professional organists that like to play it a light wave speed. I like the little extras that you put into it.
Thank you so much, Gary! I feel the same way about this song -- so many organists play it as though it were a speed contest, and I never wanted to upload it until I could work out a more musical arrangement. I appreciate your insight.
David
P.S. When were you going to tell us about your Lowrey upload on your OTHER channel? hehe
@dunlapds2 Thank you for the compliments! Well, your uploads are live played.... I mostly rely on multi-tracking due to some of the organ's system issues, still I'm planning to upload some live songs as well.
Tico Tico first gained worldwide recognition when paired with Aquarela do Brasil, a 1942 Disney short introducing the green parrot character named Jose Carioca. Both songs became worldwide standard after that - another side of the Disney magic! Does the cuika foot button at 0:49 come as standard issue or is it an optional upgrade? I am in awe each time I hear you David! Maybe you could adapt my current feature- Lovely Hula Hands? Watcha think of the nifty link to your 2+ hr playlist here? chuck
@chkjns On future uploads,I think I should probably consult with you, the resident YouTube authority, on the background stories of my songs! You're pretty amazing ...
Not sure how to answer your "foot button" question; the sound effect is standard in the instrument; the foot buttons (called pistons) are optional.
With regard to your "nifty link" -- all I can say is, "WOW! Did I really do all that?!?"
really really awesome..... four hands doing different things.....next thing ... fly a helicopter ?

Yes, this should be THE definitive arrangement AND tempo! Thank God for You Tube so we can continue to hear and see David play so beautifully.

You promised me Tico Tico and i'll be damned , you did it.
Its a whole other impression off the wunderlich tico , but its very nice.
Its looks like the first and orginal tico , and if i remember well , its brazilian.
I myself , are now testing it on a foxtrot version with steirisch accordions., Another other version off tico , lol.
Keep up the good work , and many greets from the netherlands.
Very good and keep going.
