I love it, bravo. How many rock composers have music played by subsequent talented artists, that sound like modern, avante garde jazz/classical compositions, yet so listenable?
Great performance. They do it very personally which is great of course. She uses some voicings especially in LH that Emo himself would never use. They skip a quiet part at the end and redo the piece here and there by adding some extra improvisation and vamping. I too would like the sheet music for this twohanded version. Or maybe I will write it down myself one day :)
It really does,nt get any better than this...These musicians bring the piece to life...I would love to see the look on Keiths face after viewing this performance...
Gee !!! Wow !!! Can't believe you put it all up like this.... Absolutely fantastic... Lvve it a lot more like this...... You two are really really very very good musicians to top it all... Million thanks.
Just marvellous, awesome, extraordinary... Congratulations... I'm looking the video and I just can't believe it... you cought all the magic of the piece....
It's better than the original! Much more interesting with percussion instead of the symphony orchestra (which is not to say that the original is not good. I love it)
If you like percussion, check out Evelyn Glennie. Not only is she heralded as one of the top percussionists in the world, she does it without being able to hear a single note. Amazing stuff, especially her performances of Christopher Rouse's stuff -- look her up!
I think I like this version better than the Keith Emerson, Carl Palmer with the orchestra video also on Youtube (Works Live). Definitely better than the "Barock Project" version, which sounds like it belongs in a low budget film.

The low piano ostinato is really mechanical and reminds me of metal works or something. Love it :)

This is GREAT!!! What an absolutely marvelous idea for a recital performance!
Japanese musicians never fail to impress me; these two are so obviously and wonderfully talented.

That is the best percussionist in the world. As far as the pianist, Keith, was that her? I stand down.
