Love Confession on Yamaha Electone EL90


YouTube via Tonneman

"Me playing "Love Confession" on the Yamaha Electone EL90. In 1986 (if I remember correctly) I reached second place in the finals of the national Yamaha Electone contests. That time, I performed this song on the Yamaha FX-20.

"Love Confession" has been composed by Ruud Jansen, who was my organteacher and coach back then. As far as I know, Ruud originally played this composition years begore I did (seventies?) and became nr 1 of the European Yamaha contest.

To play this piece on the EL90, I made the arrangements (registrations), rithm patterns and rithm sequences myself. I kept in mind the original arrangements and character of the song as I performed it back then on the FX-20.

Enjoy!"

  1. Y'know, those sorts of organs are so seriously cheesy it's almost painful, and yet they're SO COOL. They look like fun to play with, for sure.

  2. Fantastic technique! I have to say I am amazed at how organ players can play all those parts at the same time - even setting up all the different registrations has got to hard.
