The Organ Forum

Someone who knows the great Cameron Carpenter.  I really fell to pieces, I wasn't certain what to say, I'd had too many drinks.  (Yes, this was in a London club.)

Facebook sums it up so well: Cameron Carpenter is the Savior of the Organ World.   

Check out his Liszt Mephisto Waltz, and can we imagine what his piano technique must be like?  

The person I met offered Cameron's email and phone number, but that's too stupid of me.  I would never bother him, anymore than I would Martha Argerich.

The Lord has blessed this man.  He is the ultimate.   

 

 

Calm down Jason - have yourself a long and cold shower and then we'll talk, ok?  < 8 - D

The Liszt Mephisto Waltz is phat bro....  /action adds a beat

Greg:

Are you sure that he said he met Karen Carpenter, Jason

Very funny, Greg...  

It is strange how one comes across aquaintances of some of the big names out there by chance.

Even here in Malta I've met someone in the pub who is a friend of John Kitchen (known for his extensive recordings of instruments in Scotland in particular), another of James O'Donnell, and my partner is a friend of one of Marcel Dupre's former students.

Perhaps you should go ahead and get in contact - could lead to an American tour for you, Jason!

Very funny, Greg... 

 

Err. ok then...

Yes, you best maintain a reverent silence whenever Karen is mentioned!   

Offered without comment.

When my organ teacher was playing at the Paramount Music Palace in Indianapolis, I saw her playing with high heeled shoes. See does not do that now.

Jason,

Whats up with that which is sprawled on the organ bench?

 

Oh my goodness!  Surely not the love child of the 'organist entertainer', Miss Denise Hewitt. (Look up him/her on YouTube).

T'internet can be a very strange place sometimes.....particularly when it comes to organists :p
