BachScholar vs. Richard Kastle - Douche Battle (lol)
on: November 14, 2016, 01:43:34 PM
Hey, all!

You probably know of the widely-recognized YouTube piano personality that is BachScholar - a man known for his pony-tail, cat, grand piano, and allegedly narcissistic persona.

Then there's also Richard Kastle, the "punk" pianist who specializes in octaves.

So my question is this:

Who would be the more controversial "douchebag" pianist of the two?

Lol.

Regards,
cuberdrift


Edit: Oops...should this have been in the Repertoire section? Oh well.

Hahaha. Inspired. I'd rather listen to Richard Kastle. Much funnier. Does he 'specialise' in octaves? ;D what a curious notion.

I don't know if that HR2 video is still around. A lot of those 'octaves' were sevenths and ninths, iirc.

BachScholar can't possibly be controversial. He's far too resoundingly dull for that. It's like listening to the world's worst ever midi with added mistakes.
