1.5h of live improvisation (Orchestra + Ad-hoc Organ Play-along Live Stream)


Watch me play along live to " The Witcher -- Wild Hunt" concert recording from Cracow, Poland. This is one of my VGM training sessions, in which I love to put some more gravity into epic game soundtracks to make them even bolder.

As I have no sheets for this, everything you'll witness is caught up by ear, from notes to chords, dynamics to tempo, rhythm to articulation. Enjoy this unique on-the-fly composing experience!

Thanks Carsten for this and the Youtube link. We get to see and hear behind the scenes. A great achievement.

Thanks, Andrew!

As a fun fact, I streamed this as a response to an inquiry of some attendants of my "Metroid: Organ Transplants" cinema premiere. A few of them weren't familiar with the Metroid franchise, but did play other video games and were pretty impressed of how much a pipe organ could improve an already existing soundtrack; so they asked me whether I could do something similar to their favorite game OST. (Of course, the answer was "YES".) ;-)

BTW, there's another live stream of about 2.5 hours where I started to insta-pickup and practice another set of Metriod titles when Sam Dillard released his latest album on July 1st. If you're not afraid of and can cope with a ton of flubbed notes, here's the link: https://youtu.be/lTtQTSD2AoM

Cheers,
Carsten

P.S. If you'd like to skip a few minutes of stream setup, the starting timestamp is https://youtu.be/lTtQTSD2AoM?t=400
