How would Beethoven have played if he was given an electric guitar?

[ManFromGlass]

Glass Orchestra just performed in a local Toronto experimental music festival. The church was packed with almost all enthusiastic youngers so there is hope for the future of music and people who look to push the boundaries. I’ve attended other experimental music events and in spite of lack of a living wage for musicians there is an audience who digs this stuff and will attend concerts by those who are compelled to go down that path.

Improvisation, it’s the heart of what I do, my piano music is 100% improvised, and never replicated.

Arpangel, I would love to hear your improvised piano compositions, one piano player to another. Is that possible from way over here?

Thank you!

Welcome back, tea for two!!

Doubly embarrassed.

Even though I had basic Classical lessons tuition until I was 14, the tune that got me into Classical was this 70s remix on Saturday Night Fever Album : 5th of Beethoven by Walter Murphy.

Beethoven had groove rhythm, reckon Beety would dig Funk Guitar, Rhythm and Blues Guitar.

My god, I would have hated that when I was young, it would have been the complete antithesis of what I thought music should be.
I was so extreme in my views, looking back, it went way beyond youthful enthusiasm.
I was a complete purist, any "cross-overs" were seen as sacrilege, and should be banned. Bach was the only composer worth listening to, and everything else didn’t even deserve to exist.
Then I heard Switched On Bach, and through that, my world opened up, and I discovered the American avant-garde, so I’m had these two massive opposing worlds going on in my head, and the fusion of modernism, technology and classical music through Switched On Bach was a clue to how music should be approached, a huge melting pot with no boundaries, and that view changed my life.

This Bach interpretation by Sky had quite an impact upon me as an early spotty teen. First heard it in 1987 on a compilation vinyl titled : Impressions : played on the family Amstrad.

Impressions album also had this Rondo. Which also made quite an impression upon me.
