Tyros Twin Set + Howard Beaumont

Here is an interesting little ditty performed by Howard Beaumont on a Tyros twin set, the quality of the video isn't very good but the sound is reasonable - I thought it was rather cool 8)

Hi Mike,
Not that long ago I had the pleasure of seeing Howard Beaumont perform at our club, he is one of the old school, but boy can he entertain, we all were treated to a fabulous performance by him, so seeing this video both brought back those memories and showed me what I should be doing with my TRX, could never do what this man can do but its tempting me to have a go :lol: :lol: oh! what am I saying :lol: am I digging myself a hole :lol: hope not. thanks for posting Mike. ATB. jackoj. 8) :) :) :)

Hiya John 'n' Tony,

Yes, Howard is a very cool player, I remember some of his demo tricks from the 80's ... he was quite capable of making a mediocre instrument sound top-notch, which wasn't a good thing for us retailers as it led to customer remorse - mainly because the customer couldn't make the organ sound like Howard did at the demonstration evening :lol: :lol:

He used to play Bach's Organ Toccata & Fugue, his version of the Toccata wasn't all that, (as I remember), but Howard's arrangement of the fugue was awesome, he mixed a Beatles pop song within the fugue and it was very effective ... he demonstrated for Eminent or Baldwin organs, can't recall now :)

All the best.

Mike
