Nathan, in my own opinion, is one of the most complex, versatile organists in this generation. There are no outrageous hair cuts, outfits nor pompousness, just a genuine nice guy and a true entertainer....a master of the art.
Why don't you like Cameron carpenter. Most people don't like him because he approaches the organ differently and to be honest he probably intimates you because he's one of the best organist. In my opinion Cameron carpenter and Peter Richard conte are the greatest organisms alive.
Nathan, along with the organists in the LDS church (both men and women) wear APPROPRIATE attire for organists. Conservative, traditional attire is best for organ concerts.
Didn't notice it first few times watching, but that guy in the first few rows with the orange shirt and black shorts, how RUDE walking out while the rest of the viewers gave a rousing standing ovation and a WELL DESERVED standing O!!!
I’m 72 and this is without exception THE BEST rendition of the Finale sans full orchestra that I’ve heard since I first saw The Lone Ranger on TV around 1955. I have many recordings of the work, more than fifty, and this is the one that stands out most. IMO, it could have been used as an alternate version on both the radio and TV versions of the program. Ta-i, Kemosabe! Excelsior!
I had the delightful experience of hearing Nathan play this piece today, June 1, 2014, on the great organs of First Congregational Church in Los Angeles. Rousing and exciting cannot even come close to expressing the delight and joy we all experienced at the hands of this virutoso! BRAVO !!
Just think Nathan Laube's playing is brilliant. And I like being transported to my childhood watching The Lone Ranger on a large 'portable' black and white Tv which could only get one channel. Thank you Nathan and I hope not long before I can come to see and hear you play.Best Wishes
Dear Nathan; What's it like to be count among immortals? I've listened to this performance so many times, I think I should send you an invitation to dine in Switzerland. Love you. Blessings where ever the heck you are. Moi
Wow, simply the best transcription for organ of any kind of music I heard, a real pleasure from start to end. Like his registration, and his fingers seem to stroke the keys, even when he is going hard and fast he is not slamming the keys, it is more like dancing fingers.
Nathan Is an amazing musician. all of you that like this should check out the British organist Jonathan Scott. he is another absolutely amazing young talent.
Those here who wish to compare him to any number of past- and present-day organists are not quite correct. While Nathan is a splendid musician and virtuoso of the first order, his is NOT a copy of anyone else.
I was once told that a cultured lover of music can listen to this overture by Rossini without thinking of a certain "masked ranger"..... apologies mother (may she rest in Peace) however, Nathan Laube has truly inspired me to say it ....."High-ho Silver and awaaaaaaaay!) Heartfelt thanks for uploading and best regards!
Notice how the kid is grinning at the last. He knows he's blown everyone away. This piece has been made to sound clownish so often (and associated with the Lone Ranger). He really does it justice. It's just beautiful.
uh oh... Hey, Cameron Carpenter... you need to be continually looking over your shoulder for this incredible young man and his amazing talent to creep up and possibly surpass you one day! This is TRULY AMAZING!
For the record: Nathan played "Ad nos" on the massive FCCLA organ here in Los Angeles upon my request, which I will never forgot because I hadn't heard it live. So, besides being a genius, he is a really nice person. :)
As much as I like this piece of music on it's own accord, I will never hear it without seeing Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels busting across the western landscape. I watched every episode as it was originally broadcast for the first time. true I was only about 6 at the time but some things just don't leave Your memory. kevlutu
How many brilliant operas and classical pieces ended up playing backup to Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, Tom and Jerry, Sylvester and Tweety? All great compositions have their rightful place in history. Ooh rah!
The young-uns today have no idea who the lone ranger is, so they wont have the association like us old farts have. What a lot of fun it must be to perform this.
@caysonstaples - plus, when he gave this recital at Trinity Wall Street (with a huge programme), Nathan was only 19. He's 22 now. Carpenter is 29 and still can't play half as well. Also, Laube first came to attention when he took over Cameron Carpenter's UK summer tour two years ago, which CC had cancelled at only six weeks' notice without any reason - not very professional! - and totally wowed everyone. Carpenter, on the other hand, has made a really bad name for himself.
Anyone who doubts Rossini's status as a great composer need only listen to this, and then throw The Barber of Seville in the mix. And The Thieving Magpie. And about nine other overtures...
@caysonstaples - bollocks. Total and utter bollocks. Nathan is a wonderful person - charming, modest to a fault, and a consummate artist too. Cameron Carpenter is just a walking horror show - but it doesn't matter how much goth makeup he wears, those in the know see right through him. He is, as someone else put it here, a "talentless hack". If he can play Franck's A Minor Choral, or the Reubke Psalm 94 Sonata, half as well as Nathan did at St Michael Cornhill two days ago, I'll eat my hat.
@contratromba858 As an organist myself, I always make it appoint to never compare two musicians. Each musician has his or own good qualities and some not so good qualities. So, to compare Nathan and Cameron is rather foolish, don't you think. They each have very different playing styles and techniques, comparing them is like comparing Liberace and Horwitz, or Virgil Fox and E. Power Biggs. Each musician should be commended for his or her own efforts, Nathan is certainly a great musician.
Alright, so since the comparison is being made between Carpenter and Laube I'll join the discussion. First, Carpenter takes the approach of a showman and Laube is a more reserved (so to speak) recitalist. But let's throw all that out. Both are extremely talented concert organists. However, when I compare this transcription of Laube's to Carpenter's Chopin Revolutionary Etude or Mozart Turkish March Laube seems MUCH more musically appealing than Carpenter. The Chopin Carpenter transcription seems to be constructed in a way to be just extremely hard and while it consists of a dazzling display of foot work it hardly is appealing to listen to because the phrasing as he performs it is too mechanical. His Turkish March seems to be a disjointed collection of sounds with no direction of where it is going. I'm sure he must have some transcriptions that are better, but those two seem just noisy to me. Laube's transcription is well constructed, we get a clear sense of which direction the piece is going and it makes musical sense. I don't know any other transcriptions by Laube yet but if they are like this then I would consider him to be the better musician. I would also agree with Pastort that Laube seems to have a healthier approach than Carpenter. That said, I still think Carpenter will make some valuable contributions to organ literature and digital organs in general. Mostly for his sake, I hope he comes to a point of a healthier approach to his craft.
Nathan, in my own opinion, is one of the most complex, versatile organists in this generation. There are no outrageous hair cuts, outfits nor pompousness, just a genuine nice guy and a true entertainer....a master of the art.
I see what you did there :)
Why don't you like Cameron carpenter. Most people don't like him because he approaches the organ differently and to be honest he probably intimates you because he's one of the best organist. In my opinion Cameron carpenter and Peter Richard conte are the greatest organisms alive.
I agree, coat and tie with modest hair cut, is all that is needed. The music, Nathan's playing, speaks entirely for itself.
Nathan, along with the organists in the LDS church (both men and women) wear APPROPRIATE attire for organists. Conservative, traditional attire is best for organ concerts.
@@Ken_Weber_organist is he an adventist?

if that doesn't bring a smile to your face ...
he just looks so happy playing. it makes me happy to watch him.
"Hi ho Silver" and thanks, Nathan, for all the wonderful memories. CVD
A truly incredible talent!! I have never heard a better transcription than this one.
True genius!!
I never knew human hands could move that FAST !!! The word Master doesn't even come close. All my best. >
Magnifico! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This was Absolutely Brilliant. Perfect from beginning to end. And by far then best I've heard of this piece.
Nathan you are the real deal!! Incredible! Your choice of registration is truly exquisite!
Wow, simply the best transcription for organ of any kind of music I heard, a real pleasure from start to end.
Like his registration, and his fingers seem to stroke the keys, even when he is going hard and fast he is not slamming the keys, it is more like dancing fingers.
Tom Lahaye have you heard the organ transcription of this piece by Jelani Eddington? More orchestral and amazing as well!
Nathan Is an amazing musician. all of you that like this should check out the British organist Jonathan Scott. he is another absolutely amazing young talent.

At least I get to read what u write!
The Lone Ranger, Lark Cigarettes (from their TV commercials ) and Gino's Pizza Rolls (again from their TV commercials). Excellent rendition here!
Very good transcription !!!! like an orchestra!!!
What fun! Stunning performance!
Notice how the kid is grinning at the last. He knows he's blown everyone away. This piece has been made to sound clownish so often (and associated with the Lone Ranger). He really does it justice. It's just beautiful.
Amazing, this is the kind of piece that wins you auditions for work!
uh oh... Hey, Cameron Carpenter... you need to be continually looking over your shoulder for this incredible young man and his amazing talent to creep up and possibly surpass you one day! This is TRULY AMAZING!
it aint a contest! Let each do his own
Nathan, this is amazing!!!!
Brilliant!! Extremely clean, well articulated, excellent registrations and loved the transcription.
what a great looking guy. i love the glasses. oh yeah, he plays the organ too.
I Play this over and over watching listening trying to keep up on my Silver..
Just brilliant!
Beyond words.
For the record: Nathan played "Ad nos" on the massive FCCLA organ here in Los Angeles upon my request, which I will never forgot because I hadn't heard it live. So, besides being a genius, he is a really nice person. :)

Fantastique maîtrise de l'instrument
je reste stupéfait et respectueux

Holy Cow that's Amazing
WOW!
Fantastic******
A true connoisseur of music is able to listen to The Lone Ranger theme and not think if William Tell...
How many brilliant operas and classical pieces ended up playing backup to Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, Tom and Jerry, Sylvester and Tweety? All great compositions have their rightful place in history. Ooh rah!
The young-uns today have no idea who the lone ranger is, so they wont have the association like us old farts have. What a lot of fun it must be to perform this.
This is the best arrangement of this music that I have ever heard. VERY GOOD, SIR.
When are you coming to Texas ??
@caysonstaples - plus, when he gave this recital at Trinity Wall Street (with a huge programme), Nathan was only 19. He's 22 now. Carpenter is 29 and still can't play half as well.

amazing how the video and audio have improved since this was recorded in 2009.
WOWWWWWWWWWW !

BELLISIMA EJECUCION Y TRANSCRIPCION

Amen to the below!
Who was that masked man? Well partner, down in Texas, we call him Nathan Lobe.
William Who? That was the LONE RANGER! Serious OOH RAH! stuff!
Very impressive, pity this recording is in mono though.

Carpenter certainly has technique, but, unfortunately he plays like he's a sewing machine.
Mr. Laube is solid all the way around.
Why won't you stop comparing the interpretes...? Just listen to the music...
well, get together with everyone
@EccentricRichard Hmm .. Wish I were a talentles hack, then.
@steelersfanhawaii Correction better than Virgil
Virgil Fox reincarnated
he looks like a cameron carpenter wannabe
caysonstaples ...Cameron carpenter needs a metronome... buy him one lol
His trills are far too long.
Seriously? That's pretty dumb
