Brother Carey, your version of this Magnificent Hymn is most beautiful masterpiece I have ever been honored to hear! You just can’t imagine what your awesome performances have done to the population of the world! You’re a blessed, anointed, awesome musician brother! I can just see, when you stand before Almighty God and He reward you for your faithfulness to your awesome talent He has blessed you with. You realize this magnificent hymn speaks of the Rapture of the church! As I listened to you play this awesome hymn, I was getting a vision of the Catching away of the church, and had no idea this hymn was speaking of the Rapture of the church! You a very blessed, awesome young man Carey! God is proud of you man! I can’t wait to shake your anointed hand one day in Heaven Brother! We love you very much; continue to share the Good News in song throughout you generation my awesome friend! God loves you and is very proud of you my precious brother! He wants you to know that you are in Him, and He is in you! He wants to hug you close to His Bosom! You’r like a precious stone to Him! Awesome, awesome young blessed musician man! Take care!
Very cool and I appreciate the approachability of the visual. As a classically trained pianist with terrific ADD it really helped me think about his counterpoint in a new way. Grateful to you for putting this all together!
Thank you Linda. Unfortunately, I don't take requests as not everything is to my taste; I have to be familiar with the work so as to have some kind of connection with it to bring it to life.
As for music's visualization: How about a more psychologically-natural synesthetic translation of the music into concomitant images (i.e., into one dynamic image, w/ the details of its shifting correlating w/ those of the music)? A speculation: that it would tend to appear, for most of us, like a dynamic [ever-re-blossoming] mandala (or ‘kaleidoscopic’, or center-symmetric, image). Anyone know of any synesthetics who could attest for or against this speculation? --- And then, perhaps, one important development from such a display would be to work out some sort of notational system from it: a set of gross simplifications of such images (easily produced by auto-symmetrizing [several times around the center] a few hand-writeable marks &/or colors; from which, while sight-reading such a ‘score’ into live music, each "melody" (shown as a sequence of such simplified 'mandala-snapshots') & each "chord" (shown as a small group of them over-laid upon each other) could be clearly read and quite precisely rendered. Might this be one common musical notation of the future?
Thank you for your inquiry. Indeed, there are a great many visualizations I could use (and have in my older videos). The reason I use the MAMM (Music Animation Midi Machine) presentation is because it is most often requested. In fact, when I've released 2 specific videos - 1, as you've suggested and 2, MAMM, the latter is always favoured (higher views). Another very particular reason I prefer to use Stephen Malinowski's program for the visuals is because it allows people to follow along even if they can't read music. I get plenty of comments from math, music and special needs educators. In some instances, I've been told that the visuals do particularly well for children with autism.
@Howard SIX, unfortunately, once I've posted, especially a piece I've already redone, I simply can't take the time to remaster it to suit someone else's liking... I'd be forever reworking the same music over and again as everyone seems to have their favourite version that they compare with mine. I create my music to suite my sensibilities and share them here for other to enjoy. I'm sure you can appreciate this as well as the fact I have so many other pieces in the works awaiting finalizing, the historic research and notes, and an appropriate video. I must go forward when I can, as my creative abilities are hampered by my fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. I will add that while this isn't to your complete satisfaction, I doubt you will be interested in a commissioned version (still awaiting the A-OK to post), with its excerpt to be used in Ecuador's "Foreign Film" category submission for the 2018 Academy Awards; it's rather minimal and at a faster tempo. I do hope, however, that you'll find other music on my channel to enjoy.
Howard SIX None taken. I just wanted to explain (as some people actually read these threads and comments LOL), that we all have our own tastes and I'm often met with comments saying something is slow or too fast. Not all composers assigned tempos all of the time (*cough Bach) so I do my best. Heck, I've even had people complain about the intros. Thankfully my music isn't a "viral" genre that doesn't draw Social Media trolling.
I've been working on it actually - just some early sound experiments. I would like to make the choir voices the same sonorities as in "Domine ad adjuvandum" from Carlos' "The Well-Tempered Synthesizer."
Wow this synth version is beautiful.

This exact version was played in a wedding I filmed.
Love this way of showing the different voices and where they separate and where they meet.
Can you do Musikalisches Opfer?

@@CareyRMeltz Appreciate the comment. No offence intended.

I like it just as it is. Great work, as always!

Pull up Toccata and Fugue in D minor best version ever and hear that one.

Any chance of the first movement of this wonderful cantata? :D

It's great! One of my favourite choral preludes.
