Mark Whale playing Earth Song

Postby Hugh-AR » 18 Feb 2017 16:23

Sometimes when listening to a professional organist playing I get inspired to have a go. Mind you, I can equally feel I want to give up as I realise there is no way I can ever play it they way they have.

One song I have always liked is Michael Jackson's Earth Song, but didn't think it would be a suitable piece to play on a keyboard. Then I came across this version by Mark Whale, played on a Wersi organ (I believe he works for Bohm now). Anyway, I just love it, particularly the piano bits .. and how he plays the chorus. Most of his video background is taken from the original Michael Jackson video.



I have had a go at this tune now, so will put it up.

Hi Hugh,
It must have been a lot of work to set up this comprehensive arrangement.
It is arranged and played perfectly.
I am looking forward to listening to your own version.
Remember we were talking about how pre installed intros can put you in mind of a
certain tune ?
Well a good case in point is George's post "Have I The Right "
Check it out and have a listen to the video I have put up in the comments there.
