Phantom of the Opera Medley

[@sarahcelery330]

As the best friend who this was played for, I just want to thank you again darling. Even nearing a year after you first played it for me, it still makes me cry. You are amazing and should never stop playing. I love you and your music so much.

What a friend :-)

[@gremlincomicsllc3126]

Since you know how to play this . I ask for you to create a new type of Phantom Raven theme song for my own super hero . For [e-mail] bro this is a serious inquiry I will pay you for the theme song . Base off something spooky 💀 like this piece .

[@wickedxe]

Absolutely beautiful music. Well done

@@wickedxe Mr Carl Laemmle feels that it would be unkind to present this picture without a note of friendly warning. We are going to tell the strange affair of The Phantom Of The Opera, a mystery never fully explained. We told Universal Studios workshops in Los Angeles that this this is the very chandelier thats recorded in the famous disaster. The workshops in Los Angeles have managed to repair it and wired part of it to the new electric light. Perhaps Carl Laemmle feels that it would frighten away the Ghost of so many years ago with a little illumination. Gentlemen.

@Jacob Wilkerson a free organ you say ?

[@2008truckman]

The only constructive criticism that I can say is make sure you never give up your talent. This was by far the coolest music i've heard from an organ in a long time. Thank you for posting this.

[@wolfboy18]

Have you seen the film?

[@jamiedildine1785]

@lone wolf forget the MOVIE! The MUSICAL is the original and best version that will ever be, and this is coming from a person who enjoyed the movie. Sadly, the Broadway production has closed. 😭 Here’s to hoping that touring productions will continue. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@LeePearce-wq6pv]

And when it sounds "off" it's probably perfect. 😉

[@LeePearce-wq6pv]

@@2008truckman you don't understand my comment. But Thanks. No Argument Tadahh.

[@augusthappel7531]

The organ is the king of all music. It captures the joy, sadness, pain, anger, wonder and so many other emotions. Hearing this beautiful instrument in person in a large cathedral or church like that is one of the greatest things that has ever happened to me. If you ever have the chance, do listen to it!

[@ClaireZ1993]

I am not ashamed to admit that I cried during part of this. The organ is such a perfect instrument to use for this musical. It can be dark and foreboding, soaring and grandiose, and romantic and intimate. Well done and I wish I could congratulate you in person for being so talented.

[@adamuppsala1931]

killing someone for their organs has a new meaning now.

[@TheLesMiserablesCats24601]

Someone should share this so The Phantom of the Opera company in New York & London can see this.

[@USMC_BABE38]

LesMiserablesCats 24601 he's so talented

[@louploch3992]

Absolutely wonderful, the only criticism I have is "why aren't you posting more of your talent here on KZbin for all to enjoy ?" When you've got it, flaunt it as the old expression says. Glad to see someone of your age has taken to the organ with such style.

[@christopherstefano384]

TRUE amz

[@Kayscastle]

I'm a huge Phantom fan, and this is still one of the most magical renditions I've heard of these songs 😍

[@michaelchanwing]

Me too this is absolutely so omg loved and enjoyed this ❤❤❤❤

[@jeandanielodonnncada]

So impressed about everything. The page flip around 0:45 was a masterpiece. I am not joking. I cannot imagine flipping a page in the midst of all of that! Well done!

[@victorruiz7288]

Okay so so far this is the best interpretation on organ I have listened to so far that is closest to the original from the 2004 film track. You did a pretty good job

[@PlumfacesamaYTP]

You do realize that the 2004 film isn't the original, right?

[@victorruiz7288]

Yeeeaaaa so? I'm referring to the music of Andrew Lloyd.

[@PlumfacesamaYTP]

So the music of ALW is from the 1986 musical. THAT'S the original (as far as this score goes anyway).

[@dtaylor4552]

But the Original film was made in 1925 with Lon Chaney in the lead role in Universals motion picture but banned in Britain until the talkie version 1930. Other film versions included Universals WW2 Remake with Claude Rains in 1943, hand Hammers version with Herbert Lom in 1962.

[@Wasabisaki]

Plumface-sama Yup!

[@tombowden6090]

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I love the music even though I have never seen the show. This rendition was magical and made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@tonyandrade8131]

Look... he creates magic with his hands and feet... truly Amazing!!!

[@AgentM79]

The raw energy here is PALPABLE!!!!!! The organist surely imagines himself AS the Phantom. He plays the organ with demented abandon in pursuit of musical perfection. Absolutely loved it. Well done,Sir.

[@ajborowski]

Saw phantom in Chicago last night. Here today. This rocks, bravo!

[@DnilLwi]

as a young organ player myself, I want to congratulate you on making this medley, it is definitely my favourite musical of all time and you portrayed it perfectly I do hope we can get in touch with each other and maybe get together for an organ jam out maybe at some time but never stop playing bro you are so amazing

[@joachimhelmut8347]

Phantastisch, diese Harmonie mit der Orgel.

[@geovanni7342]

I can’t imagine what it must be like to sit at the consoles of what appears to be a lifeless object and call it to react to your will and touch and come alive and speak. Outstanding .

unglaublich, durfte es auch schon einmal live hören, bei einem freund auf der Orgel, unglaubliches Talent, sehr geil gespielt , und ein Wahnsinns sound.

[@TheCLPVideos]

Nicely done, and from the comments you got the girl too.😙. Well done. Your arrangement is interesting. Respect the instrument in the room, and enjoy the the room's delay. You rush through sections that you might be less comfortable playing. Don't let those fingers run away from you on the keyboard. Take your time and go for accuracy.

[@8bigbob]

I really enjoyed listening to you play. I am a self-taught organist, but I have only once had the pleasure to play a real pipe organ in a church.

[@audreycook8152]

Wow !! Read the article in the K-W Record and just had to listen. You are amazing! Heard you first at a Cameron Heights School music concert in St. Peters. Never stop sharing that talent.

[@scarlettmorey2876]

I've just found this and it brought me to tears, and not just because of this beyond amazing piece, but the talent! I hope you've kept at it. Truly amazing.

[@guidopahlberg9413]

The issue with this recording is not the skill of the organ player. With an organ, you always have the problem that the instrument needs time to react and then the sound needs time to travel back to the player/audience. The room must be buit in such a way that no disturbing echoes and time lapses occcur. IMHO, in this case, the microphones were placed in the wrong spot or the room is assymetrical. Or the organ has some defficiencies.

[@ronswanson8141]

That's the same thing with Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks". It was recorded on a staircase and therefore couldn't perform it live because the sound would be different.

[@waterbird91]

Love it when you "blow the doors off the church" !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep on doing what your doing, IT'S GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good golly you're legend. I grew up loving classical music and built up the courage and patience to learn some really good classical and modern piano music with singing. And I don't even read music. I don't know how. I just copy and memorize on synthesia. It still remember watching the POTOpera movie with my mom when I was a little kid. And suddenly, I decided to look for this video when it just popped in my head. The way you played this is absolutely awesome. The intro is what blew it all away

Don't let it go to waste. this is amazing keep playing!!! Never stop!!!!

Wow, this was wonderful. Its what I love at the organ, the possibility of making such different sounds. Small and quiet, at the other hand all the power the windmachine can deliver :-) AL Webber needs an orchestra, you only one instrument. Now I am turn up the volume and play it again, because I love the Phantommusic as well. Greetings Alexander

[@WoodymC]

Liked your "cantus firmus" (if one may call it like this for the particular piece) approach in the pedals... Great transcription, registration and performance, BRAVO!!

[@neonhomer]

When you have to link your phone to Bluetooth in your truck because your phone's speakers don't do this justice... but the kick-ass system in your truck does... and people give you weird looks for playing it at high volume!

[@simeonpetkov768]

Don't know why, but this exact song scares the crap out of me. The words "satan/devil/evil arising"" are just popping up in my mind....

[@ni-lm7ke]

absolutely same thoughts here, it fits the phantom character TOO well and reminds me of vampires and candles in mansions during night time. dark energy yet intoxicating!
