Escaich: Orgel-Improvisation über Themen von J. S. Bach und Johannes Brahms ∙ Thierry Escaich

[@bubffm]

Escaich is one of the few true masters of improvisation. Great structure and climax

[@TurtleFL]

That's for sure. I'm floored.

[@Helga2408]

You're awesome! Bravo Prof. Escaich!!!! Greetings from Regensburg.

[@audriusmaciulis1253]

Tank You, Maestro Escaich!

[@TurtleFL]

This guy comes up with stuff that would have only been heard aboard UFOs. He is out there! I love it!

[@TurtleFL]

Hot tip: If you want Escaich to do a concert appearance at your venue, make sure your organ has a 2 2/7' Septieme. ;)

[@ДокторКузьмич]

Это потрясающе! Музыка других миров!

[@ExistentialistDasein]

[@tom.p.m.schuby]

Sensationell...unbeschreiblich....

[@tensorprodukt]

[@MusicMan-dv7jg]

2:53. That is STAR WARS! Am I right?

[@azizchahbi3538]

0:47 the name of the piece please

[@TurtleFL]

Improvisation on Themes from Johann Sebastian Bach and Johannes Brahms.

[@thekathal]

It’s not a piece, he made it up on the spot

[@xoknight8166]

The theme is from BWV 1060

[@ediccartman7252]

The theme from Brahms is that of the 2nd mvmt from the 4th symphony

[@MusicMan-dv7jg]

Vova Hrenov Well, you are correct! Thank you for pointing this out to us. (But it still sounds like Theme from Star Wars.). Brahms was first, so maybe Williams imitated it. Regardless of our bickering, the organist has done a fine job of the improvisation, and very gave us a very artistic interpretation. I do not understand the criticisms. If you cannot say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

[@charlesdavis7087]

What happens when you cross a Mussorgsky with a Shostakovich? You get a night in the luny bin, a sore ass and a promise of more to come. It's like watching a train wreck; you can't turn away. He's kind of a Paganini at the organ. Is this the Devil's child or H. P. Lovecraft back with a score to settle. Fascinating. And where's my smelling salts?

[@jorgecartocci9493]

EXCELENTE ¡¡¡

[@alexislureau92]

fantastique !

[@louismarie92]

GREAT !!!

[@dominiquecaby5852]

Beau .. même pour les analphabètes . . Merciii

[@elbandsy]

fucking brutal.

[@MusicMan-dv7jg]

Well, it sounds more like improvisation on Star Wars

[@notaire2]

Außerirdische Improvisation!

[@ВладимирУ-т3ц]

Какие-то детские мелодии, к которым добавил аккорды Баха.

[@dissilymordentroge5818]

Impressive virtuosity but in parts just plain silly.

[@charlesdavis7087]

I was wondering if anybody else caught wind of "The Emperor's New Clothes"?

[@leonvandenbrand4049]

Good improvisation in a bad acoustic.

[@prankkster]

I much prefer pipe organs in churches. Concert halls make them sound too sterile

[@Tamadehenzhan]

Starwar

[@Tamadehenzhan]

Danke für den Hinweis

[@jorgechtler778]

klingt aber wirklich wie star wars - auf brahms würde ich nicht kommen, wenn es nicht dastünde ;-)

[@jacquesdelacroix8869]

Nulissime

[@wotan9630]

The guy’s musicianship and technology is there for all to see but, pleasant to listen to NO F....g WAY. Gimmicky does not get anywhere near it!! Would love to hear him playing something sensible not this tripe. So UGLY!!

[@dissilymordentroge5818]

Maybe so but a signifant percentage of recent classical composition it either a protrait of the composer’s insanity or the collective madness of our species. We can look away but can we claim such artforms have no value?

[@jacquesdelacroix8869]

Nul pauvre Bach

[@jacquesdelacroix8869]

Nul. Pauvre JS Bach

[@Tavussatwaossi]

Normal, ce n'est pas Bach qui lui a fourni le thème mais John Williams (la guerre des étoiles, à 01:58). 😁😉😄
