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 .....
