René Bosc conducts "Tarkus" (Emerson, Lake & Palmer)

[@fulltongrace7899]

Great rendition, much closer to the original than I expected. Also awesome tam tam.

[@LotsOfGuitarAndSomePiano]

Absolute Spitzenklasse.Wahnsinns Arrangement. Danke Rene Bosc. Sie sind ein wahrer Meister.

[@MaartenVanBloois]

Tarkus is the best composition of Keith Emerson. The speed and sphere of this performance is outstanding!

[@clau.dioconti]

Interesting ensamble. Crazy film direction

[@cocoramirezrosa572]

Magnífico, brillante interpretación del más grande super grupo del rock progresivo. ELP, grandes músicos y leyendas de la mejor época de la música contemporánea.Felicitaciones.!!

[@kevb1959]

I feel so lucky to have seen ELP three times among some of the best music performances I ever saw.

[@scottjackson163]

Keith Emerson would be proud.

[@sorel997]

Absolument parfait ! RIP Keith and Greg.

[@EdgarDeSola]

Excelente!!

[@RudiKiefer]

Fantastic idea to revive this 1969 classic with acoustic instruments. Quite a new sound without the old Moog synthesizers. Great job by the musicians. This is a very difficult piece. It sounds to me like "Emerson, Lake & Palmer meets Hector Berlioz".

[@jhigelin7252]

j'ai assisté au concert "pictures at an exhibition" à Bruxelles. Le plus beau de toute ma vie. ELP pour les millénaires. Avec des gens talentueux comme ceux-ci, je me régale forcément. merci

[@kellyklingbeil5802]

WELL DONE

[@avenegas0691]

What an Outstanding performance... Five Stars Rating!!! Long Live Emerson Lake & Palmer (Keith and Greg... We will never forget you guys!!!)

[@voiceover2191]

Fantastic, wonderfully done and I also loved the graphics. This music deserves and needs to be rediscovered again and again with each new generation.

[@mediclimber]

Fabulous. I can't get enough Tarkus.

[@twomeelkeel43]

From the second time i heard this on the day that i bought the album at Sam Goodies at The Garden State Plaza, i knew it would be a long living classic like Stravinsky's Right of Spring... R.I.P. Keith you shudda hung in there....😢

[@charlesroberts3650]

I, and others I'm sure, have been waiting for DECADES for ELP's music to get the proper orchestral treatment it so richly deserves. THANK YOU Rene Bosc et al, you do ELP, and we the fans, a great honor.

[@chrismarkbayne]

Love this! One of my favorite orchestral arrangements of this classic ELP piece.

[@johnbeske3625]

That was really fun and energetic and the horns and woodwinds added some exciting new texture to the piece. Also, the pianist rocked it. The whole way through, I was excited to hear how they would handle the Aquatarkus theme and I'm really bummed that they skipped it. It's probably my favorite part of the original piece and it would have sounded great with the added horns.

[@vogelheim07]

Amazing! The classics of the future! Fantastic performance!

[@GrizrazRex]

There's some actual ELP studio version samples, in places, if you know what you are listening to. They are so deftly used, that it takes nothing away from the performers on stage, or the neat, compact arrangement. Of course, being a fan of the tour de force "Aquatarkus" from ELP's triple live album, I was hoping for more, there, but, that can be addressed, in time. Good luck with the project, maestro.

[@stevejones9740]

Fantastic! What a great arrangement this is, and what a performance! Thank you so much for sharing. It's nice to see Emerson's music getting some constructive attention after so many years (decades) of derision. I'm sure that Keith would be very impressed, and gratified, by this. Brilliant!

[@fantakustube]

Not only a nice work, a terrific, sincere, authentic re-freshing, but with great respect, including samples from the original . Thx from all EL&P fans

[@NicleT]

Excellente orchestration et performance.

[@loganpierce9244]

Amazing interpretation of such a complex composition…!!!! Bravo…!!!!!

[@onsesejoo2605]

Great and very tight arrangement and performance ! The keyboard sounds, organ, synthesiser and piano have been kept faithful to the original. Like wise the drum sounds are close to the original recording. :)

[@charlesroberts3650]

Astounding

[@enricoscoriazza4952]

Certo sorprendente. Sorprende che avendo attima strumentazione si sia riuscito a ridicolizzare il lavoro di una delle band piú eccellenti del progressive.

Ou est ca? Keith Emerson is quite the composer. His pieces could be performed over and over and new bits discovered. Genius!

[@LaurinaHawks]

He is not "quite" the composer, he IS the composer. (with some contributions of Greg Lake and Carl Palmer)

Does anyone know if Mr. Keith Emerson got to see this version? I would have loved to see his response and to know he was appreciated. Watched some video interview in his 20's. He commented on wanting to be known as a composer. WELL.

oh my god this is great, I always loved Tarkus, this is sensational, congratulations some people move forward

[@judobongobuck]

Man those kids are good! It was note for note even though rearranged. It was true to the original, even minus the L and P, giving this high scores. Very well done Rene' Bosc.

[@klagrohzt5846]

Extraordinaire (ré)interprétation ! Arrangements sublimes. Un fabuleux travail. Bravo, quel régal !

[@yarduag2008]

voila une belle version dynamique et précise comme l'original . Une superbe conduite d'orchestre qui mérite bien une pluie d'étoiles !

[@ChristopheSobottka]

Avant de visionner cette performance, j'avais peur qu'un tel orchestre dénature l'inspiration originale et l'interprétation géniale d'ELP. Mais tout au contraire, cette adaptation est très réussie techniquement et émotionellement. Bevor ich diese Video sah, hatte ich Angst, dass ein solches Orchester ELP's erster Inspiration und Genie untreu sein würde. Doch im Gegenteil finde ich diese Adaptation hervorragend, sowohl musikalisch wie emotional betrachtet. I feared but I was wrong. It's SUPER !!!

[@johnkru1295]

Very nice. Thank you very much!

[@yxtra5]

I love this version. It's well done, even with a little help of some samples, but the arrangement (a totally edit) is agressive and exciting like the original... well done (Much beter than the 'Three Fates'-Mikkelson-version).

[@fulltongrace7899]

Interesting you say that. Keith was involved with the Mikkelsen Three Fates Project. Tarkus Concertante was 20 minutes long, so included more of the original. Will have to listen to it again.

[@yxtra5]

@@fulltongrace7899 I said this because I think this arrangement (Bosco's) is a more kinky edit version by some brass-orchestra including additions. Keith's old Hammond and Carl's samples are mixed into it (so a bit fake). Not perfect, but móre exciting than (spiritless) symphonic Mikkelsen's 'Tarkus'-version, which is rather boring -- "Malambo" is much better, because it was originally composed by classical composer Ginastera). (mind you, I do love classical music ...). B.t.w listen to "Tarkus" pianoversion and we know how excellent composer and pianist KE was .... With honor: Keith!

[@fulltongrace7899]

I relistened to the Three Fates version and I agree it is not as exciting as this one and also a much slower tempo. Yes Malambo better and a beautiful short orchestral piece written by Keith called After All This Time.

[@gerarddion4859]

Well done! You’ve really captured the spirit of the piece! IMO. I think the Maestro would have approved wholeheartedly!

[@zoktoberfest]

Bravo!!!! The best orchestral arrange and performance of this ELP material i have heard to date. I wished you had done all the suites, including the vocals, but what you did was excellent. Try doing it without the samples, however.

[@jamesrmore]

Jeffrey Zaiser agreed samples are not necessary but I love the arrangement is fantastic and loved the familiarity of original sounds (drums and keys). Instead of samples you could use midi interfaces on these instruments to perform real time and live. The editing however was flawless and loved the orchestration especially breath instrumentation.

[@federicorizzo8586]

el esfuerzo es encomiable y el arreglo acertado, lo que me desagrada, es la "quantización", tanto del piano, cuyo sonido parece un GM y la batería electrónica carente de toda dinámica, este esfuerzo merecía un batería de verdad y un piano mas dinámico y realista, un saludo desde España.

YO SE QUE LA MUSICA PROGRESIVA SE VA A CONVERTIR EN LOS PROXIMOS AÑOS EN UN PARALELO DE LA MUSICA CLASICA DE LOS GRANDES MAESTROS, COMO MOZART, ETC.
