Karn Evil9 3rd Impression (by EL&P) - COMPLETE Piano Arrangement - Massimo Bucci

[@adamdachman]

Dear Massimo, I am a doctor in the USA, I am also a pianist. Music is my life, not my livelihood. I follow you on KZbin. I play a Steinway B in my home studio. Keith Emerson and I became acquainted near the end of his life. We were going to work on a project together. Watching and hearing your playing always inspires me. We, who are left behind carrying the Emerson torch seem to find each other. My piano repertoire has largely been original compositions based on my Emersonian upbringing. My ability to play Keith's extraordinary pieces like this one is limited by my professional obligations in medicine. I so appreciate your inspiring dedication in presenting a piece like this. I am certain this took you considerable time, effort and passion. You have left us all a remarkable interpretation of one of ELP's finest works. But, this is what I have come to expect from you as an artist. During this difficult time in history when Italy and the world are facing grave challenges from Covid19 I wish you the best of health, prosperity and continued ability to share this kind of artistry with all the world. This is what makes life worth living. Your passionate commitment to the art of piano is a divine talent. God Bless You, Massimo! Bravo!

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank you so much for your long, interesting and touching comment. This very difficult moment is particularly dramatic for you doctors who risk and sometimes lose your life to heal and save others. Now more than ever we have to thank you for your hard work. Best wishes for such health to you too, dear Adam.

#1 rule of being a doctor: you must always tell everyone you are a doctor

[@fryderyk2462]

@@matthewferguson7084 I think he's only showing his inmense appreciation of Massimo's arrangements, as a conclusion of his own efforts on arranging that same piece, explaining that, as a pianist, and doctor, on the Apex of COVID, could not have enough time to finish It...If you see any pinch of vanity on that, you really have a problem, or probably you are nothing other than an anti-vaccine...

[@bingohhhhhhhhhhhh]

@@matthewferguson7084 Sorta like your showing everyone you're a bit of a dick ...

[@paulgrieger8182]

Hey! I know this guy! He's legit. Keith was the sh*t. Adam rocks. That is all.

[@IYAMNI]

It's amazing how beautifully Emerson's musical sensibilities shine without all the electronics. Wonderful performance. Thank you.

[@MaartenVanBloois]

Kieth is to terribly underestimated as a composer. What a masterpiece it is! Thanks for playing this marvelous music

[@ThatsMrPencilneck2U]

Nobody is appreciated in their own time. Sometimes, if one gets old enough, it happens. I believe Emerson lived long enough to hear the Tokyo Philharmonic perform Tarkus.

[@rosskendall3310]

Indeed, when Keith Emerson died, his compositionsl skills also died along with him. The music he left behind, many people can play and duplicate, but his talent of what instruments to use and how to incorporate them within his music, all lost. Thank goodness he lived in an age where his recordings can live on forever. I often listen to "Take a Pebble", listed as a Greg Lake composition, but the keyboard work, pure Emerson, and when played live, never played the same way twice. Indeed, a major loss to the keyboard world and music in general.

[@johnwhittaker346]

I clicked here to listen to the music, and I am moved to tears by the comments here. I am at loss for words. I am clicking LIKE so I can find this always.

[@altura65]

Minuti che elevano lo spirito e celebrano la grandezza umana, l'arte, il genio di Keith e la bellezza della vita... un colpo di spugna alle nefandezze quotidiane e del mondo. Grandissima esecuzione e immensa sensibilità per questo capolavoro. Grazie maestro!

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

@altura65 Grazie mille!

[@BaileyBuns9]

STANDING OVATION!!! BRAVO👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank you Susan 😊

[@albertogozzini]

Una riduzione per pianoforte eccezionale, che svela tutte le trame armoniche, melodiche e ritmiche di un pezzo troppo sottovalutato, ma che forse è la miglior composizione degli ELP assieme a Tarkus. Il finale, originariamente suonato dal sequencer Moog, con il piano è semplicemente pazzesco 👏

[@trstack]

Incredible!

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Who knows why, on Friday 9 October 2020, this video had a surge in views 🤔 Anyway, thanks for the visits, likes and subscriptions 😃

[@nickbarton3191]

Died but his music endures.... long live Keith Emerson. Splendid rendition, bravo!

Thank you Nick

@@MassimoBucciMusicista where Did you find the music sheets?(dove hai trovato gli spartiti di karn evil 9 3rd impression?)

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

In rete si trova la trascrizione di Brent Wood (vocal,synths, organ e bass). Io l'ho consultata, ho ascoltato più versioni del pezzo ed ho scritto il mio arrangiamento pianistico.

[@NINOGIANLUCA]

@@MassimoBucciMusicista grazie

[@NINOGIANLUCA]

@@MassimoBucciMusicista mi potresti mandare il link, per favore? non riesco a trovare il sito?

[@bryanwhitehouse4141]

I really enjoy this guy's renditions of Keith's music. Wonderful stuff.

[@declermartineza761]

Maestro Massimo, there is no composition that cannot be executed. With each one of this selection between Banks, plus the entire interpretation of Genesis, plus that of Emerson, it is clear that by passion and ear

[@davide-magisaudio6256]

Brano fantastico eseguito magistralmente. Alcuni passaggi sono barocco puro, si ritorna indietro 200 anni per alcune strofe.

[@Rel6956]

STUNNING...BRAVO SIR!!!

[@albertogozzini]

Queste meravigliose versioni pianistiche rivelano in pieno tutta la grandezza compositiva di Emerson. Nei suoi pezzi ci si può ritrovare tutto il XX Secolo pianistico. Grandissimo lavoro di Massimo Bucci, unico al mondo.

[@gracieladelcarmenabregu3179]

Maestro d los maestros!!! Aquí si hay excelencia en escuchar todo el día un album completo q nivel una bestia y composición d Keith Emerson q más se puede pedir👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 soy Mario Rosales

Grande maestro,tocca l'anima quando suona la musica di Emo. Grazie ,la seguo da anni

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Grazie Fabio😊

[@marioreda3261]

Bravo come al solito. Ascoltando i tuoi arrangiamenti mi convinco sempre di più che la musica creata da questi grandi geni negli anni 70 rimarrà per sempre.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Bravo! Ottimo arrangiamento. 👍

[@matthewferguson7084]

You are amazing!!!! My favorite mvmnt of Karn Evil captured flawlessly, thank you!!

[@RiffRaffish]

I make sure to re-visit your beautiful ELP/Keith pieces every now and then, they always put me in a good mood

[@carlosrobbins9178]

Thank you! That was delightful.

[@MikoajPagan]

Great arrangement as well as the performance, especially considering that it's played in one shot without any cuts. Wonderful way of keeping ELP's music still alive.

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

In fact the piece is quite challenging! Thank you Mikolaj :-)

[@blib3786]

Massimo Bucci Do you have a transcription for it?

[@stevestevens1154]

Absolutely brilliant

[@nigelbrown555]

Bloody amazing, ELP fan and music lover. Well done to you. Tarkys was a triumph but that was even better, especially the ending ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@jgdmlw]

Somehow he makes it jazzy crossed with a Rachmaninov piano concerto. Somehow fills in where there was only drums and keeps it flowing and full. I think his are the best I have heard of this type of video.

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank you Michael, for this and your other comments😊

[@pennabiro5135]

SBALORDITIVO! Davvero un arrangiamento degno dei grandi ELP. Un immenso tributo a Keith 👏👏👏🇮🇹

[@hitchadmirer]

Superb!

[@jbw53191]

I've listened to this piece since was first released. On an 8-track tape. All I can say is -- EXCELLENT WORK. Truly impressive orchestration and arrangement. Thank you!

[@patb4691]

Thank you for keeping alive the musical genius of Keith Emerson

[@zeraelsereno]

What a great tribute, I hear the three of them through your notes.

[@ermannoprincipe8815]

Massimo complimenti veramente per interpretare la musica del mio idolo Keith Emerson.... bravo davvero! A presto

[@miguellimon3853]

Bravo maestro!!

[@mjstcdnce5]

Beautifully done - right down to the accelerating sample & hold at the end! Bravo!! Loved it.

[@fazerman2003]

Absolutely blown away, great performance. Always thought the music of ELP was just made for orchestral arrangements, but this piano only proofs that played on an acoustic instrument like the piano is just as good. Hats off to you sir.

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank You Neil!

[@davebartholome2924]

I was wondering how you were going to pull off that ending. It made me laugh out loud-awesome!

[@squanto2]

This music was the favorite of mine and my friends as teenagers in the 1970s. Superior Music to almost everything today.

[@1rem1Art]

I can't stop liking your videos!

[@marcusanthonyPOV]

Mind blown. Incredible. And that ending!

[@declermartineza761]

Nadie te supera y eres de verdad alguien fuera de serie. De verdad mis respetos a tu talento y debes llenar salas ya que tú trabajo no tiene precio 👏👏💯❤️

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank you very much, Decler!

[@davidgerber9317]

Absolutely blown away! What a fantastic arrangement. I can't wait to explore your other videos. I thought that no one could play Emerson's music as well as Rachel Flowers, but after hearing this I realize she has as least one equal.

[@saccola8780]

Not only is this piece incredibly beautiful, you don't have any music in front of you!!!! Amazing, again (as in all the other videos I have seen of you playing)!!! I am sure Keith would be smiling at you for this, and I know many of us are, too!!!

[@rmancool]

Spectacular Massimo! More please!

[@JollyDeacs11]

This is raw talent, magical and absolutely pleasing. Bravo!

[@sergiolufernandes]

Grande arranjo, sem cortes nem edições! Perfeita execução desta obra-prima da maior banda de rock progressivo de todos os tempos, ELP!

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Trilogy en versión completa también está lista por algún tiempo. Tarde o temprano haré el video para you tube. Si lo desea, puede escuchar una vista previa aquí: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqW1aWivqdudo9E

[@alanwander7277]

Massimo, I have genuine tears in my eyes both from the beauty of your masterful playing and interpretation of this work as well as for the loss we all feel. As long as there are musicians such as you who are capable of keeping Keith's work alive, I will be listening. Thank you so much for all of your efforts in this work and all that you publish. Is there a way for your fans to obtain a better quality version of your works other than what is published on KZbin ? My home audio system is quite suitable for doing your work the justice it deserves.

[@BattManion1979]

I have tears in my eyes from the schmaltz.

[@sega62s]

in these weird times, you bring so much inspiration.I will keep on practicing hard on my jazz harmony, you are one excellent interpret and also you bring your vision in this masterpiece with your touch.From Montreal I say hello and thank you for your great great videos, always inspiring 🍻

[@rickylee31010]

Bravo! Massimo..

[@hopefaith3693]

I'm at a lost for words ...THANK YOU !

[@maxmanzi8845]

Esecuzioni come questa, nella loro "nudità" dimostrano , se ce ne fosse bisogno, la SOSTANZA e la bontà della musica concepita da Emerson ... quel poco che oggi risulterebbe "datato" nelle esecuzioni d'epoca del trio assume nuova luce in questa versione pianistica magistralmente eseguita. Bravo Massimo.

[@dnashofficial]

fantastic!!! what a wonderful performance! thank you so much for keeping this music alive. you honor it magnificently.

[@philipclayberg4928]

Bravissimo, Massimo. All I have to do is close my eyes and imagine that it's Keith Emerson playing. Molto grazie for helping keep ELP's music alive. (I play piano myself, but -- in my honest opinion -- my abilities are nowhere *near* your level, Rachel Flowers', and Keith Emerson's.)

[@lawrencewittenberg6594]

MASTER

[@morbidmanatee5550]

Fantastic!

[@Martinkeys]

Absolutely stunning arrangement and performance. A good test of a composition is that it stands up in almost any instrumental configuration and still works. This brilliant version certainly shows the quality of Keith’s composition but let’s not take anything away from the fantastic interpretation here. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank you Martinkeys!

[@BobKrummenacker]

[@ThePierre61]

Bravo Massimo!!

[@richardball8365]

Even right down to the last 30 seconds. Amazing!

[@grezair7117]

I hope people appreciate the delicacy of your arrangement. For instance, keeping the canon form of sections such as at 2:34 with melodic cross overs from one hand to the other.

[@ejc8017]

Que maestro 👏

[@ThorHammerdahl]

BRAVO! i have enjoyed learning this piece merely as an exercise & challenge not to be mastered, rather to make me happy attempting it. YOU, sir, have interpreted it masterfully in all of it's harmonic wonder. i stand and applaud you! WELL DONE! absolutely lovely rendition!

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Thank you ThorHammerdahl! I agree with the fact that the piece has very interesting harmonies and, in some places, very special.

[@MassimoBucciMusicista]

Merci!

[@sega62s]

Merry Christmas Massimo 🍻

[@Valerio241059]

Limpida, pulita, una trascrizione asciutta e priva di orpelli per un brano forse non orecchiabile e melodico come "Take a Peeble", ma comunque complesso, articolato e non facile da affrontare. Gestione impeccabile delle dissonanze. Il finale è di una pulizia veramente rimarchevole. Sempre tutti i miei complimenti.

[@DaleStricklandClark]

Fantastic. Thank you.

[@dorsetbay]

Wow. That ending!
