Handel 'Arrival of the Queen of Sheba' P. Barton, FEURICH 218 piano

[@robertmiller6058]

I had yet to hear a piano version of this work that surpassed all of the organ versions that I had heard. Now I have ... Beautifully executed.

[@Spinor19]

My ears don't hurt. I could listen to all day and always find something new.

[@timothyj1966]

He totally understands the piece ..... uses dynamic playing, legato, Pedal work, to pull it all off.

[@AlexKintzer]

Best piano interpretation I've heard for this piece - so much contrast and feeling. Well done!

[@KeepingOnTheWatch]

Over the past few months I've watched this about 15 times - it's the best rendition I've heard so far. Still find it exhilarating and still gives me shivers.

[@davelee8961]

I second that emotion. Amazing performance.

[@effyleven]

Excellent! A real foot-tapper, that! So much of Handel is so joyful.

[@Elintasokas]

I love this piece. It's so cheerful. Beautifully played man!

[@PaulBartonPiano]

It is cheerful and I'm glad you like it. Thank you for your comment, it's appreciated, and good luck with all you are doing ~ Paul.

[@davelee8961]

Wonderful performance of Handel's classic. I enjoyed the overhead view. An amazingly fluid and graceful pianist.

[@crazygermanviper]

This one really is the best arragement! Well played, great accents, perfect timing. Now we now what it is supposed to sound like on piano haha

[@semarcus1]

From one who sells new Feurich grands with the pédale harmonique, this is an excellent illustration of the effect along with the warm tone of the piano. It may seem like engineered "reverb" on these KZbin videos, but the "inverse sostenuto" is so much richer sounding in person to the player and the listener! Paul, this is a fine performance, complete with smoothly executed 3rds in your right hand. Appreciate your videos!

[@SanaSakthivel]

This is actually meant to be played by a whole orchestra: full of violins, flutes, drums and so much more! Don't ask me how he pulled all of this off with just a single piano and only two hands!

[@0604asima]

You're gifted, one in million, very beautiful. Congratulations.

[@mianel5539]

Plays with such ease. Respect!

[@eslermanu47]

Greatest piece of music ever written.

[@ATLScotty105]

Bravo! So very well played. I am currently learning this piece. Watching your fingering is so helpful. Thank you for posting!

[@rubenfernando2457]

Did you learn it? I'm thinkin' about learn it on vacations by myself, but I think it's too difficult and I could be frustrated. Nethertheless i will try it.

Love this piece of music and it is beautifully played! It conjures up a wonderful picture of The Queen of Sheba and her retinue arriving at Jerusalem

Great interpretation. Everything is just right ! Thank you for sharing this ! ^^

If God gave me the grace to play so sweetly this piece I guess I could play it for hours every day.

[@gullyfoyle7006]

Very tight performance, excellent as usual.

[@AngelChow-br6wk]

Finally, a version of this song that knows that should pause before the last note

[@shin-i-chikozima]

His specutacular performance he plays with exquisite skill and breathtaking technique is beyond description , inspirational and comfortable to the ear and the mind . Without Handel and his great performer such as he , the classical music world would have been very lonely and insipid and the enjoyment and pleasures of the classical music would have been less From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵 There is something extraordinary in his specutacular performance

[@colourfulwithaU]

Beautiful arrangement!

[@abdelgaderalfallah]

Handel is criminally underrated

[@2msvalkyrie529]

As a non piano player (a ). I'm in awe that anyone could write a piece as complex as this and ( b) even more speechless that another human being could actually play it !! What complex creatures we are - part Angel / part devil ??

[@CessnaFlyerVT]

2msvalkyrie It wasn't written for piano

[@2msvalkyrie529]

@Wolfgagger Not sure what your point is ? It could have been written for Kazoo for all I care .It's still a stunning piece .

[@CessnaFlyerVT]

2msvalkyrie you're saying that you don't know why it's so complex, well of course it complex for piano because ...... It wasn't written from piano

[@dmt54]

Amazing 😮 ❤👏👍

[@jaredshetler]

My guys, most of Handel's career was in London. He's about as British as he is German.

[@robwilde855]

In England we've always claimed that Handel was an Englishman who just happened to be born in Germany!

Nice start to my day, Mr. Barton! I don't suppose you have a version of 'Wachet auf" BWV 140, 1st movement? (or any of them!!) Probably impossible to play, but if anyone can, you can!!

[@EPSTomcat11]

Handel is a G. Excellent rendition and performance. Would love the MIDI of this score. Anyone know how to get it?

[@DougGray-xf3hz]

Easy, learn to play it like this and capture the midi stream😂

[@Griso233]

Complimenti!!!!!!

[@ThomasAndersenPiano]

Love it! I have always seen Handel as a safe composer, in that regard that his music is always so safe! For me he gets a bit lost between Bach and Mozart, my go-to composers in this pre-romantic era! But this was a Great piece, of course performed with perfection here! Ill be sure to put on a Handel Playlist when going to sleep, in just a couple of minutes from now! ..as the Magician Angelo sais; Magic!!:)

[@MikeSmith-pe4sl]

ThomasAndersenPiano that’s really interesting, as I have always personally considered Handel as being a superior composer to Bach. I find the outstanding technicality in the music of Bach is often at the expense of any real passion. There are some exceptions to that though. Handel’s music is full of feeling though I think, but it may just be me projecting that.

[@leonhardeuler6811]

@@MikeSmith-pe4sl I know this is late, sorry. Bach lacks passion? Air on the g string!!! I do enjoy Handel though
