Mr. Alois Müller is a German classical pianist, church organist, accordionist and keyboard player. A musicians' musician...


In the link below, you can listen to his wonderful performance on the Korg PA5X:

Wow!!

That was an electrifying 25 minutes of non-stop entertainment by Alois Muller.
Thanks for introducing me to this keyboard virtuoso.

There is no substitute for classical training. This helps develop a solid musical foundation and proper playing technique.

Classically trained musicians make pop songs renditions look like child’s play. They seldom use or need complex arrangement styles.

Alois certainly made the Korg Pa5x shine. It suited him better than using the busy styles on the Genos2.

He made the Typewriter Song almost mimic the original played at the 21 min mark.

Here is a brilliant rendition of A Taste of Honey that Alois uploaded yesterday.

Alois demonstrates the proper way of playing the Piano using both hands utilizing the AI Full Keyboard and Fingered on Bass modes on the Genos2.

For a professional piano player all they need is a basic accompaniment style to showcase their talent and sound authentic.



You can see the Bohm Sempra SE40 organ in the background.

Hi Tapas, I'm glad you enjoyed Mr. Müller's playing, he's simply phenomenal, what he does with his left hand, I haven't seen anything like it.

I only wish he would have subtitles on his you tube videos, because there is so much to learn from him. He is not only an excellent musician, but also an excellent technical expert that knows the ins and outs of Yamaha and Korg keyboards.


In this link he does a demo of the Genos2:

Yes, I admire how Alois plays the fluid arpeggios with his left hand on his rendition of Je t’aime mon Amour at the 2:34 min mark.

This is Richard Clayderman’s version.

I am amazed how well Alois captures the essence of this Clayerman classic.
You can tell he is a happy man completely immersed in his own world of music uplifting the spirits of his audience.

This is all what great music is about!

Tapas, very true.

I like how in Europe, they have these keyboard forums, where twice a year they get together and everyone brings their keyboard while having a good time. This was in Netherlands.

That was so heartwarming to see so many keyboard enthusiasts joining together as a community and sharing their joy of music in Netherlands.

I spotted so many keyboards – Genos2, Genos, Tyros4, PSR, Pa5x, even a Montage M6 and a live Sax player.

Alois Muller is a prolific musician. He has uploaded over 3,000 videos since 2007 on his YouTube channel.

UK has an active Arranger Community too.

I was looking at this long list of upcoming Organ and Keyboard Concerts in the UK.

There are 16 events in the month of February alone for fans to enjoy live music.

In Europe arranger keyboards are still popular. In many EU countries, music schools have arranger keyboard courses along with piano courses.

I was watching a video about some young music school students perform on arranger keyboards somewhere in Russia. It was nice to see that these youngsters are interested in playing on arranger keyboards, some of them are very talented.

Bravo to these young kids performing on their Yamaha Arrangers!
They are the future.

This talented lady is going to grow up to be a classical organist.

Thanks Dengizich for sharing this link.
I enjoyed watching every 38 minutes of this recital.

I think all kids should be introduced to a musical instrument from a young age.

Imagine 8 billion souls living in perfect harmony.

Thanks for sharing Dengizich and Tapas.
I've copied and pasted the link in a thread at YM Forum so the members there can enjoy as well.
Nice to see the young ones play arrangers, and that the skills and level rise with the age. 🌞
Who knows, maybe there is a future for those great instruments after all? 👍
