Antoine Baril 17’11’’ Fantastic medley

[Mike413]

Oh yeah, he has a Genesis medley and then eventually put out a Yes medley. What other medleys has he done? Did he do a Rush medley?

Hi Mike,


if you search on youtube "Medley Rush Antoine Baril" you will find it

... it is 11:42 minutes recorded in 2015,

I prefer the medley on Genesis and the recent medley on Yes

.... the medley are entirely Played, arranged

...... recorded, mixed and mastered by Antoine Baril

which is his main activity having a recording studio

which is mainly frequented by prog_metal and metal groups

... in other covers he is accompanied by excellent members

of the Universe Effects to which he recorded and mixed

the first of their two albums
...

ANTOINE BARIL



I have been following Antoine Baril for some time now and he continues to amaze me with his skill and among his publications on youtube I particularly appreciated ONE MAN GENESIS and ONE MAN YES a medley of songs in which Antoine plays all the instruments masterfully assembled in two videos where in some of his song customizations even surpasses the original ....
well
Antoine starts from his first love the drums and then uses all the other instruments, I like it above all as a keyboard player
and here's your chance to agree with me
offer him the chance to try his hand at a medley of
songs by the most famous keyboardist Keith Emerson of which it is difficult to resign oneself to his absence
and they offer him this possibility by making him use the same tools that Keith used ....
a very big emotion that will bring him
to make a ONE MAN ELP medley very soon
certainly brilliant
Antoine accepts this possibility and in the backstage video of the days spent in this studio he shows that he already has a good feeling with these instruments that have contributed to making rock history ....
I still continued to enhance his qualities as a multi-instrumentalist by trying his hand at important songs but I would like him to try to compose tracks of him, someone like him in my opinion could do it and do it very well



…. I like to share some comments on Baril's medleys from www.YouTube.com with which I fully agree with those
who have had the same feelings as me




Archie Cocke:
“If there is a doctorate degree in prog rock, this man has it.”
Sander Molenberg:
“The church organ part never fails to move me and make me tear up. It's so majestic and now to hear it being played on this magnificent church organ was absolutely incredible.”
Rob Zittlau:
"From Rush to Genesis and now Yes, I'm speechless. From somebody that has worked in Video Production for now 40 years, I can only image the amount of hours that was put into producing this masterpiece. From the performance, to the audio mix, to the camera work and then the editing, I'm very impressed. How anyone would give this a thumbs down must be deaf, dumb and blind."
George Schaffer:
"Are you freaking kidding me? Probably the most amazing thing I've seen in musicianship in a very very long time!
You are a musical genius sir!"
jonovan:
"So much incredible talent in one human being. Is this not the ultimate fantasy of every serious musician - to be able to play any instrument that makes music with such finesse, precision and passion And, not only that, but to play some of the greatest music written in our lifetime! Bravo, Antoine. Bravo!"
William Horback:
"If he starts singing like Jon Anderson, I am going to pass out!"
Matthew Haislip:
"This also shows how epic Talk is! A lot of fans don’t like it, but it is one of the greatest Yes albums ever to me!:"



****… .And in any case if the formations of the best Genesis or Yes were still current…. They would have had a superlative wild card at their disposal who would have been ready to replace them on a long live tour for a hypothetical rest day for one of them ... he would certainly have been up to the task





in the video you can see both the approaches to instrumentation by Antoine Baril and the description of other instruments used by Keith Emerson and also asked by Antoine Baril to be made available to give a personalized color in some points of the medley that will create

for the rest, all that remains is to wait for the final product .....
ONE MAN ELP !!!! Come on Antoine .....

GOOD LISTENING

[nicola]

if I had text size 10 I would have used it........


spectacular

still a gem


amazing

simply ANTONIE BARIL





















........now I've always followed him and after ONE MAN GENESIS
I was convinced that apart from that there isn't any instrument that he can't play at its maximum capacity ... but for me he can and must exploit the best possibilities in the keyboards .... and after the excellent ONE MAN YES .. .. when I heard that Electronic Music Education and Preservation Project which has preserved all the instruments of KEITH EMERSON called ANTOINE to ask if he agreed to use all the instrumentation to create a medley like the previous two hits ..... the reaction and it was very beautiful to see (Backstage Video)... he didn't believe in the possibility that was offered to him and of course he accepted without second thoughts ... months have passed and now the result is a jewel that convinces me even more as to what his should be main instrument ... even in this medley he hasn't given up on some parts of giving his own particular interpretation by inserting guitar parts .....
I advise you to read the comments on the video which I think for ANTOINE are the best reward for his work.
I was struck by one of many who invited CARL PALMER to call ANTOINE to go on tour to re-present the great music of ELP I'm sure EMERSON and LAKE would approve and ANTOINE would have no difficulty in executing the entire repertoire masterfully .... but to do a complete work I would recommend adding bassist LEE POMEROY but he also plays guitar and mellotron .... I was impressed by his ability to adapt and interpret in a great Yes concert (LIVE AT THE APOLLO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTk7KmCNOJE ) where he had the difficult task of replacing the Great Chris Squire
and so Baril Pomeroy & Palmer would be ready for the tour and maybe he finally understands that he is able to create music someone with his skills is able to do it very well.
