wow gave me goose bumps, even better when I can hear Lake singing along in my head. R.I.P. my friends
I hope Keith is looking down smiling on this adaptation. He never realized how much he was loved while he was alive. I hope he does now.
I think he woke up with that realization
This was recorded years before his demise.
According to @Layla274 it looks like he was actually there, and celebrated Yoshimatsu's 60th birthday playing happy birthday on his right on top of the Tarkus riff on his left hand (on a piano maybe).
Don't compare it to the original, listen to it as it is. Great job.
Keith Emerson was the brain, the heart and the genius behind ELP.
R.I.P. Master Keith Emerson.
He knew that only with two top musicians he could show all his talent and genius.
All three are at a level that is inconceivable today
Great Orchestration!
Marvelous performance...
I am a huge ELP fan since age 9 (more than 30 years)..., and always had in my mind the words Keith Emerson once said: "I don't write music for today..., I write music that musicians in let's say 50 years from now, would still like to play".
Absolutely right
I have listened to ELP for 50 years and i never get tired of it. It is timeless mssterpieces
And he's damn right. I'm 17 and I've learned most of Tarkus because it's just so fun to play. Hell, I've never had as much fun playing a song that _isn't_ by Keith Emerson.
Really freaking good, props to the orchestra, conductor, arranger, everyone involved.
Also Keith s Piano Concerto and Carl s Percussion concerto with Carl performing this a brilliant orchestral version of Tarkus ..
Espetacular essa versão!
Tarkus foi amor a primeira vista ou a primeira escutada!!
これ、会場で生で聴きました。とても感動しました!! 最後のアンコールでキースも舞台に登場し、編曲者の吉松隆さんの還暦を祝って左手でタルカス、右手でハッピーバースデーのメロディーを弾いていたのがついこの前のような気がします。本当に残念です。
Incredible arrangement by Yoshimatsu! Each section has it's own contribution to the piece, whether it's melody or chording, or those beautiful chromatic builds that Keith liked to write. Yes, the acoustics of a concert hall make it hard to hear the complexity of the inner voices. Remember ELP recorded in (and probably wrote for) the recording studio. And there, you could add whatever ambiance you needed for the needs of the piece, and not change the piece for the acoustic situation of each concert hall. My eternal respect goes to the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra for taking on this project! Stunning!
50 years ago, it became popular for virtuous musicians to not only expand on progressive rock, but to take classical music and interpret it (eg pics @ex). Now the reverse! Bril!
I hope Keith heard this and realized what an amazing composer he was...I love this orchestrated version of Tarkus.
I think Keith knew about this arrangement (and collaborated with Yoshimatsu on it - according to wikipedia, which cited an interview with Keith and a post on Keith's facebook)
This is probably the best version of an orchestrated cover of such a iconic song , Bravo 👏 🙌 👌 !!!!
I do prefer the sound of the synthesizers, but this really is good. Awesome job.
I'm grateful for this version. I think we'll see more of Emerson's own works and interpretations get more attention like this as his compositional continuity is more understood.
zapraszam do zapoznania się z moją pracą licencjacką dotyczącą elp i obrazków z wystawy mussorgskiego,jak i zarówno adaptacji muzyki klasycznej w rocku progresywnym:)
A masterpiece with excellent orchestration and superb performance!
I've played this in bands that don't get it: Playing 'Tarkus' should be a journey, an experience. THIS was the Wagnerian 'Ring'...or the Kubrickian 'Stargate".
Yoshimatsu-san is a fucking legend
Keith Emerson was there and appeared at the end..
Yeah! He died in 2016! _After_ this version was made.
Excellent orchestration that confirms the importance of what Emerson, accompanied by Lake and Palmer, did with musicianship and ambition to do something important with their music.
in 100 years from now, this will be a must-read at music academies
This is an amazing version and would have made Keith very proud. The only downside is the big drops in volume when the different instruments take on the melody. Other than having a mic set up as big as the orchestra with a load of technicians on the mointors adjusting the volumes on the fly... perhaps the way would be to have multiple quieter instruments play together to increase the volume but this is small thing considering the overall achievement. Very well done.
Espetacular
Tremendus!
Fantastic!

Fantastic!!!!!!
it's even scarier in orchestra, like super avant grade game soundtrack.. larger than life
Fenomenal!!!
Brilliant! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Fabuloso¡¡¡ los fans de ELM , ya entrados en años, lo agradecemos mister Yoshimatsu.
Hollywood, ya tenemos musica, a ver la pelicula que se les ocurre...
Literalmente conocí a ELP gracias a esta versión de Yoshimatsu
The orchestration is the best i have heard of this piece and is very worthy of the original setting, i wish the orchestra performed it tighter and with better time, some parts are quite rushed. I would love to hear this version performed again with a symphony orchestra that have practiced more on the piece.
Sounds like a Final Boss theme with 7 Stages
Performed on Carl's 63 rd birthday
Muito legal, espetáculo!
OH Well!....Some one had to do it!
I think they should perform it at the Proms ..
Excelente orquestación !
holy shit this sounds amazing
Pretty great
Bravo
Obra prima de ELP!!!!!!
Si alguien pregunta que es rock sinfonico,aca esta la respuesta,musica clasica en estructura de rock,hermoso arreglo orquestal gracias por subirlo,saludos
Creo que es al revés xd. Rock con estructura de música clásica. Y siendo sincero no le veo mucha similitud, generalmente en una sinfonía los movimientos están separados , es decir termina uno pasa unos segundos y empieza el siguiente movimiento. Y generalmente son 4 movimientos. Y por lo que veo en el rock sinfónico los movimientos están juntos, o sea todo de corrido como una sola pieza, y son varios movimientos, y duran poco. No es por desprestigiar el rock sinfónico es muy bueno, solo digo que en realidad esas diferencias llaman la atención
@@franciscopinedatasayco4414 gracias por la aclaración no lo interprete como una critica al rock sinfonico,solo que me desasnaste jajaja,saludos
@@rosanacianciosi1226 Jaja, no hay problema
Awesome...!
brilliant!
no puede ser tan maestra esta weonaaa
21st century Beethoven.
Amazing! Have you had any feedback from Keith Emerson on this? I think that he would be mind-boggled. In my ELP playlist with the 2012 remix of the original; a fan remix of "Stones of Years"; Robert Berry & co.'s cover of "Eruption/Battlefield/Aquatarkus"; and Jordan Rudess's cover of the whole thing. Thanks a lot for the upload!
awesome!!!!
Splendido
1:12 - 1:23 sounds like evangelion
A little less agressive in rythme but i love this beautiful version ♥i heared that Ｍ Emerson was there listening to this hoping another version in quartet.
Bravo, bravo, bravooooo
Hi..bro.watch over please to my rocking page.
Try to see please my rocksite.
While the arrangement is pretty cool, I'm disappointed with the often sloppy playing and recording technique and quality.
I guess that the orchestra is simply too big. Those quick runs are very hard to do with large groups of musicians playing in unison. With ELP, every note was just one of Keith's fingers.
René Bosc's version sounded much tighter.
OTOH, would like to hear the same arrangement from, say, the Berlin or Vienna Philharmonic.
Kurt Bremser nah not rly, it's all up to how good the players are, I can say they didn't to an amazing job. If u don't believe me listen to BBC Phil play right of spring
I'd say that it's the interpretation of the conductor.
dirkdvo
I don't think the worst of the sloppiness, e.g. 9:53 is the conductor's interpretation.
What ever the interation by who evers orchestra, it still a composition from what was a rock band who were just trying to do something different at the time. I for one am intrigued to this classic piece taken seriously. BTW. I've seen ELP perform this composition live twice.
Check out Rachel Flowers or Massimo Bucci solo piano cover of Tarkus along with Antonio Baril, Christin, Francis Gregoire cover of the Tarkus opening suit.
...meglio l'originale...ciao...
I love ELP they were the best at using classical themes to make epic rock music. I admit I only played this from the beginning of Aquatarkus because I feel that is the best part of the overly long composition. That being said, this was horrible, it completely misses all the little solo parts that together make the whole work, and the tempo was to slow.
Beautiful orchestration !
But too much cymbals and interpretation too robotic!
Too much mic on the drums and cymbals, and the horns could be reduced a bit in the mix, but otherwise, great! It is supposed to be robotic in parts - see the cover illustration.
Always have to comes up a cuckold to criticize without any reason, only to seem like a expert
