Having to the guts to write a piece called masterpiece is one thing. Making it a masterpiece is another. And to then have it performed masterfully... This just can't be overrated.

00:00:00 Next, we sing a piece called 'Masterpiece' by the english composer Paul Drayton. As the title suggests, 'Masterpiece' is a modest title for a piece with modest pretensions. It aims to illustrate the entire history of the last four hundred years of western classical music in about nine minutes. Many and varied are the composers mentioned, so if your favourite doesn't appear tough! 00:00:31 Johann Sebastian Bach 00:00:42 Moderato, vivace. Vivace, non troppo e molto serioso. 00:01:22 I said Sebastian 00:01:28 non Johann Christian, (tempo giusto) 00:01:30 non Wilhelm Friedemann, (serioso) 00:01:37 non Carl Philipp Emanuel! 00:01:40 Johann Christian! -Nein, nein, nein, nein, Johann Sebastian! 00:01:44 Wilhelm Friedemann! -Nein, nein, nein, nein, Johann Sebastian! 00:01:48 Carl Philipp Emanuel! -Nein, Johann Sebastian Bach! 00:02:05 Bach! 00:02:30 Handel!

But the song has also a meaning. It doesn't just list names of famous composers. And it is also an adoration towards J. S. Bach. Bach's music has influenced the whole of western music evolving thereafter. They are just countless of Rock/Pop Songs who use/d his ideas for example. The "Master piece" describes a circle, a circle of musical evolution. Always coming back to basics to create new ideas. And there still is plenty of stuff to do with music in the future.

The cool thing about this song is that I have no idea who William Byrd is, and this just made me want to look up his music. Also, I just think this is one of the most talented things I’ve ever seen in my life.

Plenty of composers finished in different keys to the ones they started in, but that's not really what I meant. The thing I was impressed with is that they are singing a capella and manage not to drift off-key. When you're singing unaccompanied it's very difficult to hold absolute pitch

Everyone here is misunderstanding what he means. He means that their pitch didn't drift at all, which is unfathomably difficult to do in a capella.
