Little Shop Of Horrors - Suddenly Seymour (Pitcam)

Having recently procured a GoPro, I put it to excellent use in this performance of Little Shop Of Horrors. This is 'Suddenly Seymour' from Act 2; the moment when Seymour gets his act together and tells Audrey how he feels - my personal musical highlight of the show.

I love this song ❤❤❤ I 'm going to do a musical this year and I am Seymour so I sing this beautiful song

[@OverHarmonizedThirds]

Gee, everyone in this video has great talent. Piano, bass, drums, singers... Sounds amazing! I performed this musical not too long ago at my school, and I miss doing it. Glad to see you enjoying playing this song!

Yes!!!

[@kalebjohnson6090]

Wish I would have followed my dreams and been a professional instrumentalist. I could play a mean French Horn. Glad you did and love what you do, keep having fun!

I do spots and I am just as hyped doing my job and I’ve been told to stop dancing😂😂 your great on the piano good to see other people also having fun doing shows.

Why only 74 subs. I don t get it. This was thoroughly enjoyable. I saw the show in Paris back in 1986. It was phenomenal. You brought back such great memories and you seem to truly enjoy this which makes it even more fun. Thank you.

LSoH is my favourite stage show ever. That means nothing nothing I know. But this dude, he literally my favourite version. Still means nothing I know. But he is.

[@garyhawkins-pianoteacherpi6490]

God I love our job, and I love this show. I MD’d and keys‘ d it a few years ago. Might invest in a GoPro and take some pitcam vids at some point too. We have the best job in the world :)

[@PrazHymn83]

Very, very nice! You're really playing the way this is supposed to be played. Quick question - at the very end of this song - on "maaaaaaaaaan," why did this production skip the two measures of A, two measures of B/A, two measures of Bdim/A, and ending back on A? It was really awesome up to the rushed ending.

You'd have to ask the MD - I was just following orders on this show!

[@milograamans2]

I played K1 in the pit for this show last year as well. I don't post anything from shows because of licensing restrictions, but they're some of the best gigs I ever play. I noticed you getting excited by K2's organ licks in the third verse... I also really wished I could have played those licks during the show.

Blown away!

[@TheMusicalTheatreguy]

Well played sir I MD shows for our local theatre company - sometimes I straight conduct, other times I play the keys 1 pad at the same time Love little shop - awesome job - well done

[@bricago2302]

This is such a great look behind the scenes. I’m curious to know if your score is written out note-for-note or if you’re allowed some leeway. There are some great voicings here that aren’t in the standard sheet music. Also are you all listening to a click track? Great chops!

[@danielmkubacki]

WOW!

[@robuptonmusic]

Thank you!

[@peterstark3555]

This was very good. I'd like to see your other little shop of horrors songs.

[@sachionang]

Did you write in the organ licks since you’re using the standard orchestration?

[@kevinmarshall637]

Wow. You are extremely talented and very cute!

[@rawanalalshiekh3860]

Amazing performance ❤️would you share the piano sheet 💕

[@thomasbutler4774]

What keyboard do you use, and do you use MainStage or the default voices in the keyboard?

[@robuptonmusic]

Hi Thomas! That's my trusty Roland RD-700GX which has (in my opinion) the best feel of any keyboard in that price range. And here I've used the piano sound direct from the RD700 as this was a keys 1 production with mostly piano/EP - other shows I've done (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels/Whistle Down The Wind) I've been on Key 2 books which require A LOT of changes, so I automated them in MainStage. Thanks for watching!
