Moondog - Suite no. 1 - performed by Calefax Reed Quintet & Stefan Lakatos

[@leonardoromero2000]

Stefan Lakatos followed the music style of Moondog, his friend. And is using the Trimba, an instrument invented by Moondog. Thanks for continuing the legacy.

[@richardjchandler]

Enjoy this delightful piece! 20th-century American composer Louis Thomas Hardin, better known as "Moondog," wrote contrapuntal and percussion-driven pieces. He was blind, largely self-taught as a composer, and performed regularly on flute and percussion. Great performance!

blinded from age 16. imagine that.. made me sad

[@badcornflakes6374]

​@@father3dollarbill he dreamed in color which is interesting unlike people born blind.

[@father3dollarbill]

@@badcornflakes6374 I can barely see my dreams. I guess it's in color..

[@kollanderson9850]

Thank you so much for recording, and sharing this amazing man of so many talents. Moondog.

[@jfeltes]

I know of a women who saw Moondog as a genius. She had his illegitimate daughter that he only met a few times. He never publicly acknowledged her. She is a famous Harpist today. None of her other kids had a talent for music but Moondog’s daughter had a natural talent for it.,

[@hieutran1327]

lOVE IT!!!!!!!!

[@wetdroidedition2549]

I think Moondog was a saint like Saint Anthony, a kind of a urban hermit 20th century saint. So he use and compose music to fight his demons.

[@miarf]

Wittgenstein is very convincing at the bassoon :)

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@SBX-1]

Wouhaaaa!!!

[@nathans1978]

Can anyone tell me how he makes the rhythmic knocking sound? Ive watched all the videos on KZbin and watched his hands, and I don’t see what is making the sound.

[@bodhibrother]

He is hitting the shaker on the rim of the drum.

[@irenefriedland6242]

I believe the percussionist is someone who looks like Moondog but is not actually him. They may be playing one of his compositions tho.

[@Hairiesis]

Actually he died at 1999. Musicians do a really great anyway, and the percusionist is using an authentic instrument created by Moondog

[@valentinprotiuc8959]

It's Stefan Lakatos, a friend of Moondog, to whom Moondog explained how to build the trimba he invented.

[@scottjampa6374]

Gives a great Moondog impression though. Chill AF.

[@Marco_Venieri]

I always wondered: How did he compose moondog since he was blind? Did he write the music on paper, or did he dictate it orally to other musicians?

[@aribetancourt5009]

[@LeeKlement]

Wonderful! First time I saw a video of Moondog. Can anyone say when this recording dates to? [EDIT:] Aww, too bad - I see that the performer is Stefan Lakatos. He channels Moondog well and honors him with this performance but this is not Moondog. Thanks, Robin and Irene.

[@jacobbalsz1349]

Lee Klement- me too I thought moondog died in 1999. the cameras seem high tech.

[@derajajattnaw4677]

Moondog did die. The video description says this was from 2015.

[@yripalmkoeck1561]

and in one of the best venue's Holland has to offer... Muziekgebouw aan 't Ij

[@CalefaxReedQuintet]

Hi all, the percussionist is Stefan Lakatos - as is mentioned in the description of the video. Thanks for your comments!

[@seanm241]
