Bravissimi complimenti OTTIMA rilettura!!!!!! Di EL&P i quali hanno a sua volta riletto questo autore classico credo spagnolo di epoca barocca !!!!! Joaquim Rodrigo.
The arrangement, ELP recorded based on Rodrigo's orchestral arrangement. The original melody is truly from Caspar Sanz, but that was a classic guitar melody. At the end of the video it is written at 4':15""
Fantasy for a Gentleman is a concert for guitar and orchestra by the Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo. It is their second most popular concert, after the Concert of Aranjuez. Its four movements are based on six short dances for solo guitar by the seventeenth-century Spanish composer Gaspar Sanz, taken from the work commonly known as Instrucción de Música sobre la Guitar española en tres volumes (1674, 1675, 1697) Instrucción de Música sobre la Spanish guitar.1 Most of the movements retain the original names of Sanz. Rodrigo expanded Sanz's themes to produce a work of more than 20 minutes. Joaquín Rodrigo was always clear about where to contribute with his work to keep Sanz's ideas and the very essence of these dances clear "A whole past of dances, in which old and new times end up connecting, revives in these titles. the harmonic language and the sound atmosphere will not disturb the spirit of those titles ". Rodrigo composed the concert in 1954 at the request of the guitarist Andrés Segovia, who was obviously the gentleman referred to in the title.2 Segovia performed the solo part at the premiere of the piece on March 5, 1958 in San Francisco.2 Did this page load fast enough?

Without Greg rehashing the Love Beach story, I never got the chance to ask him, or Keith, why they never played this underrated, great album on tour. Was on my bucket list. Because every decade that went by, this album got better and better. Even the first 2 songs are great.
Well, the "Canario" has most of the time simultaneuosly 6 different Synth sounds. Keith was a genius, but he had only two hands. :-) So I think this title could not be played live by one keyboard player in the quality we got used to enjoy from ELP. That might be the answer, but not sure...
Dave I hope you’re doing well and I believe you move down south and you’re retired I just love to hear from you you’re a good friend James and I hope you’re getting through the pandemic God bless you and your family again James
I was just noodling around on the web, and (by accident) stopped on this video. This is an amazing rendition of an already amazing arrangement from Keith´s hands. Do you have the score of this already? I am planning to do a similar project like yours, and I have some another finished transcriptions made by myself if you are interested, of course. I hope my comment doesn´t sound offensive to you, we, ELP fans, are a huge and very special fraternity. Thank you for your work!!! PD: If you want some additional help, please ask me.
Hi, basically all the covers which we recorded, either with a virtual or a live band was learned by listening to the original (trascripting or just memorizing them by ear) and we did not create any notation of them. In this cover we recorded 17 different keyboards, at least 6 of them sounded at a time. Some help was taken also from the Orchestration of Rodrigo's "Fantasia Para Un Gentilhombre". I have the midi trancription of those keyboards, but none of the guitars and the percussion have any transcription. This is valid for all the covers - more than hundreds of them on my channel. In case it helps you I can export these midi tracks for you.
@@emerson1978365 Hi, I've uploaded the midi trancriptions of all the keyboards and the lead Gt. I exported it from Cubase Pro 11. I made a check, everything was correct, even the continuously changing tempo was right. Of course you need to find-out the suitable synth presets in order to hear the song close to the original. Please reply me immediately when you've downloaded the file, because it is not public, I just made a courtesy for you. here is the link: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1PhauBG2IncOAUTuBHDpnJTn4LCQ5Ahk-?usp=sharing
@@mokusmisi dear friend: I recently downloaded your file. I will be trying to open it with Sibelius 7.5 (my usual software), but anyway I listened it from my Phone. It is a hell of a job!!! Well done!! I am finishing some other scores by now, and I will continue with your file next, adding the rest of the instruments. Thank you so much!!! If you need some help from me, please let me know it. Just a side note from ELP: this tune is amazing, despite many bad opinions about the "Love Beach" album. I like it, because the music content is of top level and deserves recognition. This tune is a clear example of this. My greetings to you and friends involved on this project, I love your work!!!
I fan della BUONA OTTIMA musica sanno che LOVE BEACH contiene anche delle Gemme come la suite MEMOIRS.... E CANARIO e il resto è gradevole in forma un po' più POP ma senza scordarsi del tutto il prog rock!!!!! Per me resta un BUON disco!!!!!

Thanks for your nice words! :-)) Well, this made me some headache and it took quite long until I could get closer the original sounds of this masterpiece on the Arturia's Modular V ....
You are absolutelly right! But in the studio even Keith needed to record these masterpieces in 3-4 instances as having only two hands... 🙂 In concerts he needed to play simplified versions. In our covers we cover the original studio recordings and I always invite more of my friends to share among ourselves the tasks and the instruments...
Thanks for your remarks and sorry for mispelling the name of Joaquín Rodrigo! On the other hand in the video at 4:18 you can see the name of Joaquín Rodrigo in right spelling alog with the name of Gaspar Sanz who composed the original works. I also extended the decription by these info... But what about the perfomance shown on the video? 😃
Some years ago on UA-cam I listened to four different concerts of this Rodrigo piece with symphonic orchestras and guitar artists. Two of them could not play correctly this part...
If you guys need vocals, I’ve been told I sound like Greg Lake. I’m classically trained and have done everything from Italian arias to Broadway to new wave. I’m age 60 and have a focusrite equipped home semi-studio.
@@MultiPetercool Hi, we have an excellent singer, Len Audsley for the songs which have vocals, but we may make a trial if you are ready for it. What about to try the ELP's "All I want is you" song?
Much higher niveau than I expected , I'm surprised : hats off !
Thank you very much! :-)
Excellent!!
Excellent rendition, amazing playing and the sounds match those heard on the record, you guys should do more of these covers.
Gratulálunk, eltartás megjelöl a jó munka!
Thanks! :-)) It actually took more time to get closer to the original sounding than to learn to play it.... :-))
Great job as usual! I appreciate you all keeping ELP alive through your covers.
Thanks! We are working on new ones, still to come... :-)
Bravi! Chapeau!👍👏👏👏👏
Thanks! :-))

Gracias! :-)
This is one of my favorite ELP pieces and all of you have certainly made a fantastic rendition! Thank you!
Thank you very much in the name of my fellows as well! :-))
Aside from The Analogues perfectly reproducing The Beatles from their albums, this is the finest cover of anything that I have come across. Bravo!

Well done to you all! As you say this is a complex piece, which you have done justice to ELP's legacy. Thanks.

Incredible! Really, really nice!
Thank you very much! :-)
what a pleasure! brilliantly played as always.
Thanks for your nice words! It was not easy for us to put together this cover because it was more complex that we thought previuosly.... :-))
Wonderful!! Great work guys!!
Thanks, we are working on the next ones... :-))
Nice unexpected cover, guys! The whole Love Beach album has always been a guilty pleasure. And a funny album too.
For me it's been always a masterpiece and I am glad to be able to perform it with my virtual friends! :-))
Awesome work guys; I hope you do more of this.
The Karn Evil 2nd and 3rd Impressions are coming hopefully by the end of this year... :-))
Excellent work.
Thank you very much! :-))
You are excellent musicians. Each work shows perfection and professionalism of the band.
Thanks for your nice words! :-))
I would love to see them live
Great performance...!! Congratulation to all of you.
Thanks in the name of the whole "Virtual band".... :-))

Thanks! 🙂
Besides this, what else on Love Beach was worth a damn? (serious question)

@@mokusmisi Are there any recordings of ELP or Keith doing this live?
I have not heard about any. I think it is impossible to play one keyboard player 4 to 6 different synth sounds/melodies at the same time...@@mbogucci1

Sorry for the late answer George! Without your contribution the cover of this ELP master piece would not be accomplished.... :-)
