Apparition -- Elegiac Songs and Vocalise George Crumb

[VomSaturn]

It's very fast, isn't it?

[SonicProvocateur]

YES! This is only the second time i've ever heard it done this well...so hard to do the night in silence. A great justice to Crumb and Walt Whitman.

Thanks so much for checking this out. My sister Reyna Zack has been working at a local opera company in LA. Celestial Opera Company. They are small, but put on some wonderful shows. Best regards, Marc

I'm just starting to get into Crumb's music, this is amazing!

[SeattleDrumSchool]

Thanks so much for checking out this video. This is my sister (Reyna) singing. I love this music too. Cheers-

[ColonelCognitional]

I love it. What have they done to the piano? It sounds like a guitar. I love the singer's quarter tones.... and those nice runs. :)

[pegaso354]

This voice is horrible.Without technique. Voice for popular music.

[SeattleDrumSchool]

You have no idea what you are talking about. You can't even complete a sentence.

[ArlowynFrank]

Really great job! A friend and I are working on this piece right now and the runs just kill me! You make it sound easy!

[Tenorboy29307]

Thank you for sharing this here. It is so hard to find a recording online of this very moving composition.

[cheekychiko]

good work! well done

[brotherkurzweil]

maybe a bit too less meaning if you ask me... it's about death, isn't it

[SeattleDrumSchool]

What do you mean "less meaning?"

[brotherkurzweil]

In my opinion for example the first part (the night in silence) is too agressive in the piano, also wrong tempo by the way, and to much in the here and now. I think it should be much more ethereal.

[jcislo]

Tough piece, nice work.

[Packni99a192]

I would love to see the rest of it!

[wesleyan97]

One of my favorite Crumb compositions! Good job.

[SeattleDrumSchool]

Hey thanks for checking it out- if you have some other favorites I'd love to know what they are. Regards- Marc (and that's my sister who is the vocalist) I'll let her know you enjoyed the music. Again thanks--

Great work, this is a fantastic set of compositions and very difficult to pull off. Bravo
