      +apocalypse123 Not tough to pretend to be the best player of a dead instrument. I'm certainly not here to knock his skills, he played a fairly strong rendition of Toccata and Fugue, which is one of my favorite compositions, but I can find better versions here on UA-cam. If he wasn't so pretensious, he wouldn't have to worry about the backlash of how much he claims. Instead of just being a really good musician who revives the organ, he has to claim he's some kind of revolutionary, breathing never before seen life into the organ...?
      The organ was one of the most prominent instruments for hundreds of years, it's just not what we use now.
      He might as well just revive other dead instruments and proclaim himself king of them.
      Cameron Carpenter: Phono-Fiddle Revolutionist! Watch as he plays songs written hundreds of years ago and proclaims himself revolutionary!

      Operational CWAL in all honesty after watching more videos of him i won't deny his genius. he really does have degrees from Juilliard and that really is a legitimate accomplishment. but beyond that he's a tosser trying to bottle his own essence in some "revolutionary" self-fulfilling prophecy. and maybe that's the trade off, you can excel at a dead instrument but the cost is self-awareness. would i have more respect for him if he were less pretentious? without a doubt. would i care or even bother to know who he is without his pretentiousness? maybe, although probably not. as you said, the organ is a dead instrument that will stay dead of that i am certain. perhaps though, it is through infamy the organ can live on in cameron, the organ overlord!

      *****
      You've got it backwards, the Organ made this douche-face famous, not vice versa. The organ has been around for hundreds of years and inspired some of the best music that has graced the ears of a human being, this guy just plays some of those hundred year old songs that contemporary society has forgotten and they think he's a genius.
      There are probably thousands of people who can play the organ better than this guy, they just don't do it with diamond encrusted sunglasses while pretending they're the Jesus of Organs.
      I've got a friend who went to Juilliard AND Berkley, and he's not half the douche this guy is.
      This guy will be forgotten in 5 years, while organ music will live on as far as human history does.
      The only positive thing this self centered megalomaniac has done is focus peoples attention on classic music instead of Kanye for 10 minutes.

      This man is playing likely as much as 20 or more musicians might be doing in an orchestra. All because he plays all different parts and on top of it he does super improvisations! They do not take away but ADD beauty. (Of course, some posters here don’t know what that is!)

    @chrissahar2014 8 років тому

    Those classical listeners who are not impressed are not being elitist. It is that this has been done before - Virgil Fox being known for this style of fast virtuosic playing and flamboyance. he is a fine organist and has technique but he ius hardly revolutionary. There have been going back to Bach transcriptions of orchestral works for organ - think of Bach's arrangements of Vivaldi movements.
    The arrangement of the Revolutionary Etude arrangement he has don is worth the attention he has gotten but check Ken Cowan doing some of the works of Leo Sowerby. Or check out the organ works Listz wrote. And for completely far our music check Ligeti's Volumnia.
    What I DO appreciate is he honestly identifies the problem with organ literature and concerts - the expense and cost of upkeep of an organ usually requires it to be housed in a large institution. Yes you could do electronic jazz organs but some of the literature is very difficult to make it work on these organs. ANd it is its own genre which has become old-fashioned from overexposure (think how popular in the 40 - early 60's the organ was in popular recordings and it was highlighted - eventually replaced by the synthesizer).
    In sum, Cameron reflects the problems of music today - to get any attention in a saturated market you got to dress up and make a big to-do about nothing - or to quote Louis Armstrong's assessment of The Beatles old cold soup warmed up.

    • @gaiusflaminius4861
      @gaiusflaminius4861 8 років тому

      You're digging too deeply, probably ending-up getting to the bottom of nothing. This particular sentence:
      "In sum, Cameron reflects the problems of music today - to get any attention in a saturated market you got to dress up and make a big to-do about nothing" -
      There aren't any problems about 'music today' and those that talk about it see it because they talk. There always were some thinkers who would put overspill of drama into what they believed was "crisis in music". Music wasn't hurt and its development hadn't been interrupted or canibalized because every epoch inflicts its own mark that enriches it since music is breathing organism.
      And finally, music isn't market. Perhaps there your problem lies. Reject commercialism and you'll see lots of things on a different landscape.

    Since the dissolution of old Europe into modernity, the new horizon for the Arts is looking for. Much has been reduced to the effect. The technical media have become their own self purpose. The purpose of the human self is subordinated to market forces and the understanding of art has been materialized. This is represented among others in the demonstration of sound generation machines by their operator.

  • @rickmiller462

    So many versions of Bach music are based on a lack of understanding, seeming no reason to complain of, as long as Bach is regarded as a church musician focused on religion. And then Carpenter, who is not obedient, playing organ in his own way, and worst of all: He gets Bach out of the church, where everybody was tied to in those times, making us view at Bach as kind of a (ba-) rock musician! Yeah, that's what he was, indeed!

    The Liberace of the organ! He has the same flair for showmanship and musicianship, (although the clothes are more subdued!). I hope he introduces the pipe organ to a much larger audience than it now has. I enjoy listening to him and I wish him well. I am a pipe organ lover of long standing, and usually pretty much of a traditionalist in preference, but I do not object to innovation if it's done well, and I think he does it well. I also enjoyed Carlos' "Switched on Bach".
