An interview with Ethan Emerson

Elliot Gould of Render Edge Media, LLC sits down with Keith Emerson's grandson, Ethan Emerson, to talk about keyboard playing as he embarks on his own career in the industry.

[@andreatutrani]

My heart was breaking when he commented how he just wishes his Granddad was there 💔 I think Ethan will continue on with his Granddad’s legacy. He seems quite interested in Keith’s compositions. BRAVO Ethan 🎹♥️

[@satchmodog2]

As soon as Ethan Rested his cheek on his fingers I saw keith again. Great set of interviews with the Emerson lineage.

[@jonsilence]

Ethan has the same touch, the same dynamics as his grandfather Keith. This is a major gift because almost nobody who has Keith's chops also possesses the subtle aspects of his playing. Bravo Ethan, carry on proudly.

What a great grandson! Tears in my eyes!!!

[@EgoShredder]

What a lovely kid and he seems to have what it takes to become an composer and artist.

[@joeemanon9949]

What a great child! Grandad would be proud. The music lives on.

[@johnwitt583]

This kid is so special his grandfather will always flow thru him

[@johnkru1295]

Hello. I grew up with ELP and Yes as did my three kids. I saw your grandfather play live about 70 times and never missed an ELP tour beginning in 1970. You're good and I wish you the best!

The gift is in your blood and your touch is passionate. Be you.

[@steffanhoffmann]

His right hand, has the same touch as Keith. Inherited most probably. Best wishes 🇬🇧 🤝 🇺🇸

[@hypnoticatrance]

Ethan has his grandads Keith soul and I was privileged to meet him and his dad Aaron at the Keith Emerson tribute concert in Birmingham in 2017 ..I was lucky that most of the performers were staying at the same hotel I was (also the Jad and Den quintet who I was completely in awe with) ... I wish Ethan all the success in whatever career he chooses and I know he will go far ... he is a very shy and polite lad and has the world (literally) at his fingertips.

[@danielpiccinini]

Excellent, looking forward to your piano tours. SALUD godbles.

[@jamiecanivet247]

Would love to perform in an ELP trib with this young man!

[@axs203]

It's interesting to what gets someone to that stage where they can break the rules in their own compositions.

[@TR6Telos]

What a great guy!

[@Dolores5000]

Wonderful

[@Tom-ok2rh]

Wouldn’t that be awesome if all the members of a band had sons that could carry on a younger version of the same band? Or in this case even grandsons..Big shoes to fill but it would be interesting if it ever came about.

[@butchgregoria7142]

My question to my Grand-Dad, Keith... would've just been...why?

[@TZKeyz]

He has long fingers. :-).

[@jerrys5102]

He looks like he could be Juliette Lewis's son.

[@Ken-rz4bd]

ELP was my go to band to listen to ever since 73. Their music is inspiring. Trilogy one the underated pieces of music ever it is and was an absolutely as close to perfect song as there ever was. It is an shame that is not more popular and heard today. Ethan continue in your art wish you the best.
