HENRI'S BOOGIE - FULL HD
Музыка
Due to several comments asking for a decent quality version of this clip, I'm pleased to offer the full HD version of Henri Herbert's performance on the public piano at St Pancras International railway station for your viewing pleasure.
I uploaded the original as a low bit rate, low resolution quickie, due to having a lousy internet connection where I was at the time. A big regret now, given that the clip went crazy viral - but how was I to know??
So here it is, Boogie Woogie sensation Henri Herbert in full HD 1080p glory, along with a slightly remixed audio - a little more of the ambient camera sound, because the disbelievers out there are convinced this was over-dubbed, somehow. As well as the camera built in (rubbish) audio, I placed a Zoom H4n stereo recorder just behind the piano to record good quality sound with less of the background noise audible, to later synch in post production. This resulted in also picking up the sound of broken strings inside the piano, which many people are convinced is the sound of a hidden percussionist somewhere, playing a hi-hat, and therefore it must be an overdub fake studio recording setup or something!
It's shaky here and there, because I had planned to intercut my shots with those of a colleague filming on his phone (he can be seen in some shots), and therefore moved around for some different angles in the 'crowd'. However, he didn't film the whole performance and I ended up simply whacking the whole thing up on youtube as I'd filmed it. Sure, it's not the best advert for my camera operating skills, but apart from one or two haters, some 30 million people don't seem to mind too much.

I'm amazed how people can stand so still like that - the urge to move would overwhelm me! Really good!
The lady standing off the left end of the piano with a large gray purse is really enjoying Henri’s playing and his ability and the person just behind her left shoulder really gives a big smile when Henri changes keys! I have listened to this a bunch myself. Great playing Henri!

You know what's crazy about this? When he first sits down he plays around a little on the keys and notices that there's a busted key that's rattling. He picks a key center that will let him play that key and uses it as a makeshift drum accompaniment. Unreal.
No one is clapping, or stomping with their feet; or dancing. Does the audience have a pulse. Henri; you are the greatest boogie woogie, rock and roll piano player. 🎤 drop.

I saw this guy like 6 months ago in a local bar in Austin. He was the very first person to play for the night, no one was paying attention to him but me and like 2 other people, and the bar manager asked him if he could turn down his keyboard because it was too loud. Whatever, didn't matter, it was obvious to me this guy could tear up the keys and it was a great set.

I'd known Henri for a couple of years prior to filming this in 2013, and worked with the band he played in - The Jim Jones Revue, so I was well aware of his talents, just not so familiar with the potential of viral videos at that time - the first version in crappy 360p resolution (due to a poor connection at the time) was uploaded in 2013. You should check out the band and some of their videos, some of which I directed/shot/edited. Here's one: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z6Zkr7KBpc_FaKQ.html And one for Henri's own band: kzread.info/dash/bejne/e6l4tsZ7ocWWYbw.html Enjoy!
