"Native Tongues": Concerto for Beatbox Flute and String Orchestra (2nd half)

[freakjobb]

I liked it. Even though it's not that deep, good music is good music.

[rnie85]

I feel pity for the string players. LOL! Interesting concept. Creative!

[faithxmusic]

I would be honored to have him play with my school's orchestra no matter what the notes are.

[homegurl081990]

Yeah, this piece was awful but the concept was great

[CatFlashBlue]

This tried to combine modern pop beatbox techniques with a classical orchestral model.

It's a combusted explosion of two good ideas that turns out bad.

Like fruit-cake.

[buttbegone]

speechless...you're amazing

[kapoopoof]

Lol the beatboxing guy is like rocking out and the conductor is like standing there conducting like its a normal classical piece.

[YoungFlutest]

Is it true that Greg is janette Mccurdy's cousin :b just wonderin..... I know they might now be cousins though....

[MrMightyMango1]

Dam i wish knew the piece that greg patillo is playing

[0oAfshanao0]

The string part made me really lose focus. I wasn't paying attention at all to the flute beat boxing because it sounded like the strings were on a constant replay! ugh. The beginning really annoys me but afterwards it gets better. :) Amazing beat boxing and congrats to the rest for not falling asleep. xD

[NevTheDeranged]

I like the solo work or the cello duets better, the flautboxing really gets lost in the orchestration here. Cool that it's getting used in a larger context though.

[docgnome]

Interesting composition. I'd like to hear a high quality recording of the whole thing.

[thedrumbum1990]

Greg Rocks,, this piece sucks..badly

[NakumiYumi]

You're so amazing! \o/

[tambrathegreat]

I really loved the feel of this second half. It lived up to my expectations. Is there a possibility of getting an mp3 version of this concert anytime soon?

[NotStuckJustResting]

well that was the strangest 8 minutes of my life.

[Neolithiker]

it does not fit together really....

[exerhlp]

Quite interesting!

I'd love to hear orchestral versions of the tunes from the first two albums..

[PrincessBudenskya]

This piece will probably never be played by anyone else because no one else can match Greg's natural awesomeness.

[phillipmccrevis]

My face puppets were all like, punch a pimp once in a while!

[cindernation12]

Wow, there's something really off about the arrangement.:0 Sometimes it don't work. Greg is an awsome flutist otherwise!

[swimmakie25]

Greg pattillo is amazing but I feel horrible for the strings. >__< some of that was painful to listen to, probably more painful to play.

[miamigurl123]

Idea is awesome, but the piece really sucks. Like, really. I would be pissed if I was a string player on this piece.

[penguin227]

@miamigurl123 String orchestra needs a chance to know what bassists feel like, because this is all they play. All the time. I'm sure they're pissed too.

[hancelotto]

@miamigurl123 you can't always have the awesome solo's so suck it up gurl.

[miamigurl123]

@hancelotto That wasn't the point at all. Look at that piece from a compositional standpoint, and you'll see there's not much there. All gimmick and no substance.



[kevinedochowcan]

i would suggest all the violin players should stand up just like greg...

i mean..play the violin with some expression~ hahaha

[7ineedalife7]

this guy must have more lung capasity than husein bolt!

[0BatGirl0]

Want to download!

[Kamiyuuuu]

he looks like hes about to faint.

[PoopaPapaPalpatine]

This isn't like I've heard before....well, combined with the orchestra, at least.

Very nice. I liked it.

[a2n2queen]

Those violins are sooo annoying.

[mzrealm]

@a2n2queen Don't blame the violins, blame the composer >:O

[ParagonBeaumont]

I don't really think the two parts are good together. Its like there is no melody, just parts.

[hinarugirl]

Greg! :0 I was in awe! I think that at times the strings were a bit too loud but contributed to balance the hardcore flute! :)

[ARJAYXCV]

If awesomeness were a country, Greg would be China.

[a2n2queen]

@ARJAYXCV Russia is bigger.

[ARJAYXCV]

@a2n2queen Ok then, if awesomeness were a country population. :D

[softwhere07]

that was entertaining

[TonyBarksWB]

this was a new kind of sound... not what I expected, but certainly not bad ;-) although I got to admit that I think 4Huu is right somehow, imo the soft strings don't match patillo's hard flute, when you've already got used to project trio, but that's just my opinion. I'm sure after some more listening you can find access to the very essence of this kind of music.

[4Huu]

hm.. i thin that the string instruments are so damn unnecessary ;) xD =D=D^^

[egkcocacola]

anyone expecting classical music must have been like ....wtf..

love it!! <3
