The big musical event here tonight and tomorrow is Cameron Carpenter with his international touring organ. He plays the Saint-Saëns Organ Symphony and Sinfonia Concertante by Belgian composer/organist Joseph Jongen. I’m curious Joseph, if given the chance would you go to one of his concerts? There was an interesting interview with him yesterday on the classical station: http://www.kmfa.org/pages/2459-special-interview-organist-cameron-carpenter (~18min.)
Cameron is a wildly talented player. For my taste, some of his performances can be a bit too ferocious with respect to the composition, but overall, he is bringing some much needed attention to Baroque and Classical organ. Now if someone could do the same with the harpsichord…
Oh ya! This one’s great, too! I bet it’s fun to play, 🙂
I confess I originally just clicked “like” without even listening, so certain was I that this would be just awesome… Well I wasn’t wrong! Great tempo, wise stop choices, not even to speak of the incredible composition itself!
