Never seen or heard these Chapman Sticks. But this is beautiful, magnetic music. Unbelievable that this instrument has not gathered more attention. Sounds a bit like Cembalo.
The Chapman stick has only been around since the 70s and so far only about 8000 have been made. They have never really made it into mainstream music and therefore are very unknown. But the potential is there, they are wonderful instruments.:)
I did not know about the Chapman Sticks before I found your channel by the grace of the algorithm. So, the same algorithm brought to me a video made by Emmet Chapman himself some 15 years ago, explaining how he create the Stick and how it works. He put actually a lot of thinking into it, especially when it comes to tuning, and confessed that playing it is a real mental challenge. That explains why not a lot of musicians or bands are using it, even though is sounds amazing. You two seem to have no problems playing it. I see you have a 12-string, the darker wood, and a 10-string. I believe it also comes in an 8-string version.
The Chapman stick is still very unknown, but it is such a beautiful instrument. You are right, not many musicians take on the challenge of learning the Chapman stick. I think one of the problems is that there is hardly any teachers, or online courses and learning material available for the Chapman stick. that’s why we just posted our first beginners tutorial video. we are working on creating an online course to help people get started on the Chapman stick. We both play the 12-string Grand Stick. The wood is just for looks and doesn’t make a difference in the sound. 😁 we prefer the grand in matched reciprocal tuning, it’s nice having those extra two strings.
@@Cascademelodies Thank you both for all your work and dedication. Sound, vibration frequency is the common language of the universe and has healing properties. I know musicians and I will recommend the Chapman stick and your videos.
Nun habt Ihr bereits vor 2 Jahren in Lindau gespielt und heute sehe ich Euch als Duo bei einem Feiertagsausflug wieder am Lindauer Hafen. Die Klänge Eurer Musik zogen sanft und anmutig über den gesamten Hafenvorplatz und haben die Zuhörer angelockt. Zarte und eindrucksvolle Musikstücke, meisterhaft mit diesen grandiosen Instrumenten, die ich hier das erste Mal betrachten konnte. - Und zwei junge Leute, die diese Instrumente mit Liebe spielen und durch den ihnen innenwohnenden Ausdruck der Musik in den Zuhörer eindringen. Einfach toll und ich musste mir einfach direkt vor Ort eine solche Musik-CD kaufen. Romantische Musik, die man auch noch im Alter von nunmehr 75 Jahren gern hört und die nur zu empfehlen ist. - Ich war der Allgäuer, der nur "Sächsisch, aber nicht Angelsächsisch sprechen kann" und bin wirklich begeistert. Macht weiter so, auch wenn die täglichen Dinge in der Darbietung Eurer Musik sozusagen "a capella" vor eher zufällig vorbeikommendem Publikum, viel Mut, aber auch Ausdauer und Gewissenhaftigkeit in der Umsetzung erfordern. - Schon toll, dass es in unserer heutigen Welt solche jungen Menschen mit Ideen, musikalischem Können, Ausdauer und wirklicher Ausstrahlungskraft gibt. All das gibt auch mir wieder Mut, das Leben positiv zu betrachten. Danke dafür
I first heard the Stick from a busker in Bournemouth, England 35 years ago. I was captivated and never forgot. This is a beautiful take on a classic, the Stick plays it so well. Mozart's Clarinet Concerto is my all time favourite classic. I play it on the piano and would love to hear it on the Stick.
Merci beaucoup pour votre belle interprétation dans le froid... Elle est magique et magnifique 🤗... Et Merci Merci pour la nature avec tous ces arbres plantés 🌱... Notre belle terre en a tant besoin !🙏 Les arbres sont le poumon de notre planète !... 🌿 Merci pour votre talent et pour vos actions... 💓☘️
Absolutely amazing. That was our wedding song almost 29 years ago. I've heard some beautiful versions. But this....thanks....I'm now need tissues lol. Such a beautiful rendition. I will have to show this to my wife. Thank you so much for making me smile!
You're truly an inspiration and have enlightened me in musical possibilities, which drives me even more to go back to my music that I gave up over 40 years ago!😢😮 Play the music in your soul never stop playing and keep inspiring the world 🤟🤔😍💯‼️
@@Cascademelodies With the instrument that you play, I'm curious if you can shred since you play something different in the instrument world, then what is normally considered an accepted😳🤔⁉️
Just finished watching your rendition of Hotel California and TH-cam got it right (for a change) and brought me here. I play cello and guitar but this sound is so much more interesting (and beautiful) to me! Well done ❤️ Subscribed!
Hi 🖐️ I just saw you on Facebook playing Canon in D. You are amazing 🤩 🤩 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Congratulations. Your music 🎶 excites me so much. Keep it up. Of course I subscribed.
❤Beautiful peaceful and tranquility sounding from the Canon Suite, that you play so well and one of my favourites in the classical music lists.👌👍👏👏👏👏🌹 🌹
After watching your stunning performance of Hotel California earlier today I had to dig out more of your vids for a listen. Found this and wi-fi'd it through my hi fi system and played it LOUD . Have to tell you that my neighbour called round complaining , he said it wasn't loud enough and would I turn it up and play it again ! I did, it sounds truly awesome . We'd never heard of a Chapman Stick before, I think you've just acquired a new fan base in my neighborhood. Compliments from England 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
Absolutely beautiful. I wish there was a recording of this available. Thank you so very much for putting this on your channel. I have shared this with all my contacts.
We have this song available on our website. The album you’re looking for is called “Days gone by”. We have lots of other instrumental albums available, you can sample each song when clicking on the album. Check it out here: www.markwhitelive.com

I have never heard of this instrument but it is so, so beautiful. Love this!!!!!
There is still only 8000 Chapman sticks in the world and only 2000-3000 players.
I’m so glad you enjoy our music

This blows away all of the guitar arrangements I've heard over the years.
Really glad you enjoyed it:)

Bravo 👏 👏 👏 Thank you!!
Our pleasure!
Awesome! The Canon in D is by far my all time hit! This version is awesome!
So glad you enjoyed our version:)
@@Cascademelodies Steffi and Mark, Sound of Silence just popped up and agaiin YEP! 😀
Major goosebumps listening to this!
This song is enchanting regardless what it is played on, but on these instruments...wow!
I’m glad you feel that way:)
One Chapman Stick sounds like a symphony. Two Chapman Sticks is a symphony squared!
Four hands at the same time can create a lot of music, we sometimes have to be careful to not make it sound cluttered😁
Never heard or seen this instrument but what an incredible sound. You do it justice.
It’s called a chapman stick:) you can find out more about it on our website markwhitelive.com
Bellísimo Gracias 🙏
Beautiful 😍🥰. God bless you 🙏😘❤️👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹
You got a couple tears out of me.
That’s the desired effect😁
I know it takes a lot of time and work & love! But you both have a gift from God.. ✌️❤️🙏🙏Thankyou very much
It definitely takes a lot of work and discipline.
Thank you for your compliment. I’m so glad you enjoyed this video.

Very pretty please:) so glad you enjoyed our Canon in D:)
I'm learning to play this on the piano. I've just played along with you. I still need lots of practice!
This calms my heart so much!! You have been blessed by God with the soul of music! I hope you see Him in it!❤
astonishing how full and complex the sound of just two instruments.
Pachelbels wunderbarer Canon in D Dur vor so traumhafter Kulisse in Szene gesetzt, einfach zum dahin schmelzen😊
Really glad you enjoyed our rendition:)
First time I have ever seen this instrument and WOW !
There is still only about 8000 that exist in the world, so they are not very common:)
I am curious if the other 7998 are in museums? You both are amazing. ❤
Cool breezes and stiff fingers notwithstanding, that was beautifully played. Pachelbel would be proud. Well done.
Thank you very much!
So beautiful, thank you so very much for sharing your beautiful music 🎶 God bless you both, safe travels
Thanks for listening
So beautiful, guys!!!
Thank you!☺️
@Cascademelodies I have shared this video with several people. The arrangement and playing are truly amazing!
I used to love listening to this by my grandson on the piano, now I have started trying to learn the harp so thank you for the inspiration.
You're very welcome! Keep on playing;)

Sublime. There’s something magical about the Chapman Sticks 😊. Greetings from New Zealand.

3 chapman sticks would be a great bundle if theyd be able to be in harmony. Great work you two.
Wow, I have enough of a hard time arranging 4 hands without getting in each others way. 😅
