Cameron Carpenter: Revolutionary (CD)
"If I had to play the organ like they teach you to play it, like they want you to play it in the
conservatory and the church, I'd go mad. I'd take up the electric guitar. Or law," opined
Cameron Carpenter. On this 2008 debut album, Carpenter takes on a few organ standards,
such as the Prelude and Fugue in B major by Marcel Dupré and a moving chorale-prelude by
Bach. However, when he deviates from the repertoire, things get more interesting, including
his take on Chopin’s Etude in C Minor (the album’s namesake), “The Revolutionary.”
