THEY SHOULD PUT HIS PICTURE IN THE HAUNTED MANSION DRESSED UP LIKE 17TH CENTURY STYLE...OR HAVE HIM AS A GHOST PLAYING AN ORGAN SOMEWHERE...HE DESERVES HIGH RECOGNITION FOR THIS VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THIS.
They should!
My family has had a tradition longer than I've lived to ride the Haunted Mansion the very first thing when they enter the park. It is a tradition I look forward to every year. The Haunted Mansion "tour" with our Ghost host is one of the only times I have ever felt joy in fear, which is an odd yet incredibly euphoric experience. Will always love Disneyland, and especially this music, thanks for sharing this, (in my humble opinion) far creepier version of the song. A Disneyphile never has too much Disney love, I always say. :)
Indeed!
My equivalent of your tradition is for Pirates of the Caribbean! The haunted mansion is too iconic, just like pirates.
As a Disney cast member and fellow organist, I approve of this music!
this is one of my favorite things to play on the theatre organ. i love the crescendo pedal! that always surprises people.
where did you find the score? I've been looking for it forever
Like many theatre organ things, you pretty much have to make the score up after listening to the original song. I believe that Gaylord Carters estate has a copy of a lead sheet or something of that nature (I have heard rumors) but I doubt they will part with it easily.
I love dancing around my room listening to this, pretending I'm one of the mansion's ballroom dancers from that one scene at the party. So much fun, but I actually scare MYSELF a bit when I do it at night! Haha!
Oh and getting to work on this ride in the 80's was a dream come true for me.
Aw I just love listening to this.
Makes me miss The Mansion.
Thanks for setting "Walt Disney" in the largest type!
Thank you for the info! The only time I was at Disneyworld on Halloween was 1979.
I love the rich full sound of a pipe organ it can be sweet or it can be haunting !
He gets right to the feel. No messing around. On the money.
i love this part from music its make me ALIVE!!!!!
'The ghost and Mr. Chicken.' Verne Langdon's, 'Carnival of souls.' The wedding march music from the Haunted Mansion movie.
Gaylord Carter was one of my favorite Theatre Organists. I have always loved this song ,now that I know who it is playing it I love it even more!!!
I was a friend of Gaylord and it was always fun to hang out at his home in San Pedro that overlooked the Pacific ocean. I met him at a friend's Sunday afternoon party and Gaylord invited me visit him. When I visited I brought some Nino Rota sheet music and he played it for me on his home organ. He was a real musician and could sight read music which I never could as I played by ear.
Beautiful. The bells finish it.
I have been looking for this song for 10 years... Finally found it today...
When hinges creak in doorless chambers And strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls, whenever candle lights flicker where the air is deftly still, That is the time when ghosts are present practicing their terror with ghoulish delight.
The way I found this awesome video was when I was looking for ghost stuff, and this popped up, sometimes random files can be good, but other times they are quite annoying.
My Uncle wrote all the dialogue for the Haunted Mansion, for Disney :-D
Your uncle is X atencio
Your uncle is COOL!
Michael: I saw this years and years ago (maybe you can see comments I've made in the past) and it remains a staple for what great TH-cam videos should be. There's so much garbage on TH-cam but seeing an original, informative video that's interesting while still being so nostalgic really brightened my mood. I can remember it even now, several Halloweens later -- so kudos to you. I may subscribe just out of respect, for compliment's sake. Well done.
YOU ARE TRULY A GREAT ORGANIST....THE BEST.
Sounds Beautifull, almost got me a tear!
Thank you SO much for uploading this! The text was charming, helpful, and interesting. And of course, the music was wonderful. It has everything that makes the best TH-cam videos. Well done!
That's such an interesting piece of music and Gaylord's interpetation of it is just perfect. It's both memorable and beautiful in it's own way. It's also quite a sophisticated piece on many different levels.
the organ is a amazing model for the 192x with a amazing sounds quallity as heard here.
and played by gaylord carter is impressive.the music sheets doesn't will look easy too.....
well done disney and the uploader of this video!
pretty creepy music but still great , fits the haunted Mansion perfectly
I LOOOOOVVEEEEE THISSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the depth of the organ and all the subtle sounds like the bells, etc...
This is my favourite ride at disney land!! absolutely amazing they make it so creepy and dark :D
some songs i can like and gets hooked for about week.... i have heard this song at least once a day for like half a year,like different variations of it and it hasnt gotten boring. such an amazing piece of music.
All pipes! Robert Morton organs are highly regarded, along with Wurlitzer and Barton.
THIS GUYS A LEGEND
Absolutely Beautimous!!!
I like the music and the ride. I like listening to organ music, I like the organ music at Dodger Stadium, classical organ and modern rock organ.
Nothing sounds as powerful as beautifully played organ music. Thanks for a great clip!
Beautiful
this is great :)
This music with the right pictures running on the video can be quite spooky...
Beautiful sound.... scary, fun
i remember the online game based of of this. fun!
4:03 We are all grateful to all of them! :3
Excellent research and presentation. I would definitely grade this high in the world of You Tube!
Superb!
Whhhyyy...does blood ooze from between the bricks...voices whisper from the basement...I feel a pulling sensation...the basement is calling...I hear this, this organ music...I feel dizziness...I need to sit down...the moldy basement smell...so alluring, the heat of the furnace...so warm...the sleep...need to sleep...feel so sleepy...the spiderwebs passing through my hair..tossing and turning on the straw floor...a pair of eyes in the corner in the dark...can't wake up...is this a dream...
why does this make me want to see IT again?
Thats just aweosme!! :D
OMG!!! LOVE THIS !!!
awesome ride
dude, this is cool
Thank you!
HEY DO I HEAR GRIM GRINNING GHOST IN THERE? AWESOME :D
@michaelsmusicservice I spent two weeks at Gaylord's San Pedro home in 1988. I asked questions---many! He was a delightful host.
The automatic music matcher is not doing so well here. It matched the music I used to the wrong track. The music in my video are the preparatory versions of the tune and the very last one I used is the version that was incorporated into the ride but it's not the actual track used in the ride; there were "juiced up" bits added to make it "pop" to increase the experience of the riders. Also, what have "The Mellomen" and "Betty Taylor" got to do with any of this?
Very good and thanks for posting. I went through this ride at Disneyland in the 70's. Still remember the organ music and the great effects. Now I know some of the history into its creation! Great video!!
I love going on this ride its so fun!
pipe organs are my VERY favorite instrument!!! thx so much whoever posted this! i luv it!
Love to hear of the history of the music for the Haunted house as a child used to scare the hell out of me, yet even today this ride and the Pirates of the Caribian ride our my 2 favorite rides at Dianeyland.
So THAT is what that midi was! It was driving me a little nuts for 6 years I couldn't figure out where it was from lol!
Thanks much!
Gotta love the whole beginning, especially 0:58-1:03 !
very addictive music
I remember when dis ride scared da CRAP outa me as a kid...now its a must see!
The organ in the ballroom scene at Disneyland's Haunted Mansion is the actual organ prop used in the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea movie, so it was designed from or inspired from the movie prop. Instead, it IS the actual movie prop itself.
I love the "Pepper's Ghost" effect!
Cool clip thanks for sharing
I want to go to Disneyworld so badly! I want to go on this ride!
What a cute collectible!
I love this ride. When I was younger there was a part that scared me.... the floating candle stick that comes down the pitch black hallway towards you... lol
Cool! Thanks for posting.
First, how wonderful that your HEARD a rumor! It means people are talking about the organ and organ music, which is great. Yes, Imagineers wanted a punchier, wilder sound, so they brought in Sabransky to run it off the rails. Thanks for posting!
Gaylord had a tv show in the early 60's, "sing along with Gaylord", in it he always featured a silent film that he played to.
so spooky i say wow wat a genius!
Wow.
The name of this song is simply known as the 'Haunted Mansion [Organ] Theme'. The accompanying vocal song is "Grim Grinning Ghosts", and bears slight resemblance to the 'Theme'.
thank you! I will try to find it!
You could try using a recorder. You go to volume options, theres a thing that lets you choose where you are recording from.
The default it the microphone, change it to the stereo/mono out, start recording, then play the video.
I love the organ to the music, the one that you hear starting at 0:31 :D. The ride is sickness too.
Yep, that's Gaylord. He was friends with many of the producers in Hollywood and was top of the list for this project, due mainly to his friend, Oliver Wallace, long-time arranger and organist for Walt Disney.
en.wikipedia dot org/wiki/Gaylord_Carter
You may think that it's not at all in his character, but remember that they brought in another organist to kick it up a couple notches.
this ride still scares me and its been years since i first went on it. i think its the hanging man in the stretching room. its creepy as hell
Yes, Stamm is very good! I have both of his Bach DVDs. The theatre organ you hear in the Haunted Mansion is a recording of a real pipe organ, and not an electronic. If you look closely in the video, you can see a photo of it when it was installed in the recording studio. Do you study yet? I started about your age!
That would be an opinion to answer, but organs can create many sounds and often have given eerie music to horror films.
Yes, there are player organs, had them since the 1890s or so.
They used paper rolls like a player piano. Many people had them in their homes too.
If you put a pipe organ in your haunted restaurant, I would travel across the country to visit it! This is a great idea!
it's official I AM LEARNING HOW TO PLAY THE ORGAN, as soon as get an organ.
So cool!
though I doubt LaVey was such a consummate organist on the level of Gaylord Carter
This man was genius incarnate.
This tune is truly haunting and devilishly fun at the same time.
Great music for a game of Betrayal At House On the Hill
I LOVE IT!
I'm not aware of anywhere that offers this as a download. You can buy the sheet music in a book of Disney songs, either at your local music store or online. Search for Grim Grinning Ghosts.
Cheers! Michael
@DouglasUrantia Great! I tried on two separate visits to California to meet him. The first time, he had a cold and wasn't leaving the house. The second time, a nurse said that he was very ill and couldn't see anyone. So, I enjoy hearing from people who have stories and photos. I've heard some good ones from Dick Simonton's son.
This video was two days before I was born
very nicely done! Thank You!
aww too manyy memories of this song
This is an amazing video. Great work! Very, very nice job!
Yep, the tag spec was not intended for anything other than pop songs. The performer is given biggest notice at the expense of the composer or arranger. If you write your own songs, OK, but otherwise you might see Disneyland or something equally weird.
My friend about had a heart attack when we went on this ride last weekend! XD
My father met Gaylord Carter at one of his concerts.
Amazing!
Very nice vid! I learned a lot about something that I never gave much thought to. Isn't that funny how that works out sometimes?
It's Grim Grinning Ghosts and would be in whichever collection of tunes from Disneyland you can find. Music stores have them, and they are for sale within the parks. Or, you can get it from Amazon: search for Souvenir Disney Songbook.
Cheers!
Michael
