Quintus 5,396 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Do admin and everyone else agree that a dedicated thread for all musical tributes to the maestro would be a handy resource? I personally enjoy seeing and hearing what the many talented fans come up with, especially when they're as beautiful as this: And on the subject of the Weissenborn, can anyone recommend any scores or albums where it's featured prominently? Preferably with lots of fiddle accompaniment. It's a sound I really love actually, the sleepy western aesthetic. idril and mrbellamy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwig 1,099 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Great thread idea!This is a really fun one: Wow! He must be one of those people who takes any theme and can improvise the hell out of it.Love the Beethoven version of the theme. I would love to hear a Wagner version of the theme, but that would probably take 4 hours to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 6,828 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Those guys are too goodlooking to be proper nerds! But seriously, that's a great tribute. Better than most other 'a cappella' versions I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 6,828 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 He's got technical skills, no doubt, but he walks into the trap of so many others in that area -- too uptempo, too much flair and -- sadly -- not enough dynamic between the fast and slow, powerful and subdued. Plus, too many embellishments -- sometimes, the simpler is the better. So sorry, didn't like that very much. Too noisy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,396 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 Not so much a tribute I know, but listen to this interesting Empire Strikes Back suite as arranged by Michael Hurst: Check out that Force theme finale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datameister 1,903 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Definitely not an easy thing to do!I'm probably insane for even trying this, but here we go anyway.
