That CS80 sound is to die for. Iconic Vangelis. You cannot hear that sound and not associate it with Vangelis. Bladerunner soundtrack is the best ever.
Goodbye and until next time, glorious Maestro. You preferred to learn by yourself instead of having music lessons, because you were better than all of them. You made me dream and travel in ways that I didn't think were possible. Thank you for your works, you were a light in the music world, which nowadays is losing quality fast, but now with your departure for the stars, became much, *MUCH* poorer. But for a time, you were here, and now your legacy will endure forever. Which means you will too in a way, because that's what happens with legends. Thank you.
i have listen to this demostration many times, i cant belive that its only a improvisation this wonderfull music , composed in that moment , my brain cant belive it , beyond my understanding
The physical presence of Vangelys is gone but the divine presence of his beautiful and harmonious melodies that inspired us to dream, enjoy and inspire us and delight us with his beautiful music remains with us friend Vangelios Odiseas Papathanasius "Vangelis" thank you for your music and the beautiful moments we live listening to you, God receive you in his lap
MIDI and computers are great, but there is something, some special quality in performances like this, real time WITHOUT any kind of sequences nor loops, pedal drone tones at most. Bravo!
Since my father had a tape with Chariots of Fire in the 80s I, as the under ten years old boy I was, fell in love with his music. For my father this just was a tape with some random new age stuff for all he knew - for me it is a defining part of my life since then...
Sleep Well Vangelis. Your music came from the heavens. It still feels raw that you passed away, but you left a gift for everyone to enjoy your music forever. For me, you were like a friend I never knew. Your music meant so much to me personally growing up. and also influenced me professionally as a musician. I listen to your music everyday, and I think about all the special memories your music gave people, and what your music and legacy will forever mean to me. Sweet Dreams Vangelis.
Just like that quote from (I think) Michelangelo after creating La Pietá: _"I didn't sculpt it, it was always there, I just removed the stone in excess"..._
This is a non stop delight to 'see' Vangelis "creating" a piece in few minutes. What is prodigious is his ability to choose the right sounds to converge to what he is attempting, and the ability to exalt the powerful sounds to a deep ephemeral masterpiece...
What makes Vengelis great is the same thing that makes David Gilmour of Pink Floyd so great. Sure, there are many other musicians that can play what they do and play more technically challenging music, but they play only what needs to be played in the precise manor that it needs to be played. The production of their tone is also remarkable.
Vangelis is a virtuoso and there are videos where he is really shredding on the keys ! But his music on his albums is more or less more atmospheric and emotional than fast and furious, athough often very dynamic too.
J'avais un extrait d'une minute dans mon PC, téléchargé en 2003, à l'époque du 56k... Je trouve aujourd'hui, 18 ans plus tard, l'extrait complet... Le Yamaha CP-80 est l'instrument qui me fait le plus vibrer, ce ressenti est encore plus fort lorsque j'écoute Vangelis en jouer). Regardez à 2:40 la sensibilité, la précision et l'émotion qui se dégage de la plus petite note tout juste audible... Merci Vangelis et merci pour la partage !
Absolutely Love the sound of the Yamaha CS-80 it must have been his favourite Synth to use because you hear it's distinctive "Sounds" on most of his early albums
God be with you for ever, man! Playing and composing from The heart = The Only Way ❤️ Let followers try to learn within the todays forces of $. Blessings from Sweden to everyone ❣️
One of my all time favorites of his is Abraham's Theme from Chariots of Fire. Its such a haunting and yet satisfying slow theme. Few other pieces satisfy me as much.
Rip maestro, your music is a great part of childhood. My father (rip) played your music every single day. I still thank him for it everyday, your music lives on.
I guess that the normal process for a "normal" gifted musician to create a piece like this one should be to work for days or weeks on the melody, on the sounds, on the arrangement... What do we get here : something which could appear on a very good Vangelis album, just perfect, great melodies, the right sound at the right place, played with so much sensitivity. And all this was just a 5 minutes improvisation... Vangelis, was unique. Of course there are many great musicians, great composers but Vangelis had a unique kind of genius. I will miss him a lot, his sublime melodies, his amazing sounds, his eternal desire to explore music under all its aspects.
This is correct. He plays part of the main theme from Blade Runner, heard over the opening credits, over the opening cityscape and in Tears in Rain. This video is 1981 so maybe we are witnessing him create part of that theme during his improvisation.
Although without any significant formal musical education, he was a proof of learning through working resulting in splendid and outstanding musical outputs. As he kept claiming during his life, without knowing musical script he intuitively felt vibrations and universal frequential order music is coming from, and was able to transmit it to mankind owing to his devotion he luckily descovered rather early in himself and followed this path despite everything. His interviews are indeed a bright flame of aestethics and an excellent example of attitude that every musician in the world should listen to and reconsider, offering a plenty of matters such as the importance of beauty in human nature etc.
Luck? No. Try hard work and commitment. Lack of ego. Even if you think that this special gift of divine felling is his talent only, it actually came from his whole life experience - the way he lived, how he treated self and other people. The way he worked on himself, spiritually, opening his mind, learning all the time. It is no luck or talent - it is only a choice. Be wonderful person, and you will make wonderful music. Just connect with your soul. His music is pure expression of his soul.
Increíble músicas que me parecen recordar de otros mundos lejanos y cercanos a la vez detrás de ése tupido velo de la niebla que tapa la embarcación. Gracias Vangelis que ahora te encuentras en esos mundos donde las música se subliman a la máxima potencia del Alma Universal dónde seguirás componiendo con tu espíritu llibre ya de la materia.. Siento algo muy especial sobretodo en minuto 1:52 en adelante y 0:44.

@Scott Luther It wasn't just vangelis that used it. Giorgio Moroder used it along with the Jupiter 8 in the Scarface Soundtrack
the CS80 is Vangelis
@@carolina-qp3cu yeah I understand
Yep you could die if you tried to lift it by yourself!
@@joecantdance494 Absolutely! That Instrument makes you go weak even at the thought of lifting it 😬😬😬👍
Rip my friend. You gave me 40 years of musical pleasure. I thank you. You will be greatly missed :(
He is not ahead of his time. He is exactly where we needed him and when.
You might be right. I'm just 20 and I love his melodies. What a synth genius.
Exactly !!!! Great comment. Thank you.
Vangelis turns music into magical textures that goes directly to our souls. Simply Master.

Erm.. the formal name is Evangelos actually. Not Vangelios.
I have been listening to Vangelis for more than 30 years (since the Cosmos series by Carl Sagan) and still amazes me.
49;since "rain and tears"...
Thank you Vangelis for all the music that took me to other worlds. Your genius will be forever. RIP

"I function as a channel through which music emerges from the chaos of noise"
- Vangelis
like an old justin timberlake ...
@@dxgreg9198 no.
From "DIRECT" Album

Exactly right...they both have the gift....
Agreed. When I heard Gilmour’s parts in Live at Pompeii I was completely blown away. His additions to the songs were in every sense perfect.
Nail on the head
David Gilmour is not even close to Vangelis. And Eogwr Waters is most of Pink Floyd although Gimour is very important in that mix.

A master class from the master of class, a living legend, pure genius
CS80 and CP70 classic Yamaha instruments, played by Vangelis... what's not to like right?! 😉👍🇬🇧🎹🎵🍻 RIP maestro....
to create such music out of nothing is absolutely amazing He is so blessed! I love all music, he created. its out of this world!
I just remember this magnificent piece as "Waves of Memory" Thank you genius you are now in the vast universe you loved the most...
Poco a poco y casi sin esfuerzo, las notas van componiendo otro hermoso tema de Vangelis. Por favor, No le olvidemos. For ever Vangelis 😞
No podemos olvidarlo. Era un regalo al mundo.
juste fermer les yeux et voir ce que le cœur entend. Merci Monsieur Vangelis
C’est la musique des rêves.
Дуже ніжна,фантастична мелодія!Феномен геніальносі Вангеліса!❤❤❤
Absolutely Love the sound of the Yamaha CS-80 it must have been his favourite Synth to use because you hear it's distinctive "Sounds" on most of his early albums
not his early ones. his a little later ones. Earth, Apocalypse des Animaux, Heaven and Hell do not have them. Not sure when he added first time.
Hands down the most relaxing song ive ever heard
I could listen to this all day and all night. So much beauty here!
The greatest keyboard of all time. The CS80 is what makes me believe the future will at least have a great sound track.
Музыка Вангелиса-это Космос!!! 👏👏👏
Segun el era su inspiracion!
an absolute master, a genius with unmistakable and unique sonority and melody...
διδάσκαλος Ευάγγελος Οδυσσέας Παπαθανασίου
RIP Legend
It make me cry again and again...Vangelis for ever 👍
I like the low quality sound? It makes of sorta ethereal. Like suspended in space...
God be with you for ever, man!
Playing and composing from The heart = The Only Way ❤️
Let followers try to learn within the todays forces of $.
Blessings from Sweden to everyone ❣️
Your passing hits hard... Grateful for coexisting with you.
Brilliant! 4 mins in there's a phrase which hints at bladerunner score.
I noticed it too. Glad I’m not the only one who caught that.
One of my all time favorites of his is Abraham's Theme from Chariots of Fire. Its such a haunting and yet satisfying slow theme. Few other pieces satisfy me as much.
Rip maestro, your music is a great part of childhood. My father (rip) played your music every single day.
I still thank him for it everyday, your music lives on.
Master, what would my life be without your music. Inspiration, greatness and.. eh, words won't describe it... thank you
Great composer, arranger, keyboardist and synth programmer. I know just only a few people of this scale
simply amazing.

pure genius!!! so much soul with technology, not to many can do that.
WoW. Amazing. Evangelos is a Genius.😍
Viva Vangelis¡!!!!
Sounds so lyrical & soothing!🤩🎉❤
4:00 listen to this!!! He is playing a theme from Bladerunner!!!
what theme is?
This is correct. He plays part of the main theme from Blade Runner, heard over the opening credits, over the opening cityscape and in Tears in Rain. This video is 1981 so maybe we are witnessing him create part of that theme during his improvisation.
the Title of this piece is "La Mer", you can find it on "L'Arbre de Vie"

His albedo on all of us was and is 100%…… simply the very very best…….we are all the better in our lives because of Vangelis….thank you..x
Estos sonidos llegan al alma.....
época dorada de la música...... me encanta la síntesis electrónica....
Beautiful so beautiful
Y una estrella en el firmamento luce muy fuerte alumbrando mi corazón. Te quiero hasta la eternidad mamá.
El más grande y quizás uno de los últimos alegría y tristeza Gracias por tanto
The Legend.......

Rest In Peace ❤️
Great! But what I miss in so many videos is: the indication of the year. It was 1981, by the way.
Vangelis un genio tiene una sinfónica en sus manos bravo¡¡¡¡¡
RIP Vangelis
La tua anima risplenda nella luce perpetua di Cristo nostro Signore.
Genius...🖤
FINALLY!! After all this time. Thank you very very much, really.
A big genius.

Siento algo muy especial sobretodo en minuto 1:52 en adelante y 0:44.
Sentís lo mismo?
Abrazos
Comentó: E tenido experiencias extracorporea y e escuchado la música del cielo y es inenarrable y millón de veces superior a la nuestra.

una mente perfectamente musical ,para crear esa cantidad de sonidos efectos detodo tipo ect ect yo lo llamo el genio del soundtrack
No Words for it

Best musical phase of Vangelis

I don't think so. It's a different song..
is another song....
Rest in Peace, Master !
An authentic genius of musical composition of our century, now you can make music together with Mozart!
Glamorous!
gracias genio Vangelis por la buena musica🙂
Je ne m'en lasse pas
Unfortunately God took back this huge musical genius leaving us poorer!
"Ad Maiora Semper"!
In all this media or societal hubbub, listening to Vangelis puts the "internal spiritual church" back in the middle of the village...
