Stephen Prutsman plays The Advent of Panurge by Gentle Giant 

👏👏👏👏

This transcription highlights the sophistication of the original song. Brilliant.

There is much prog rock that should be treated as serious music.......because it is. Bravo Mr. Prutsman for highlighting yet another astonishing piece.

I would love to pay for the sheet music if there was an opportunity!

Excellent Excellent Excellent! Thank you Maestro!

This has every little nuance you expect to hear from the original! Brilliant!

Oh, such a breath of fresh air! Absolutely brilliant rendition. Bravo!!!

Wonderful Arrangement - brilliant, superb! Thank you, Sir!

Is there no end to GG renditions?!? I certainly hope not. I love it!!

This version really highlights the harmonic complexity of Gentle Giant's music. Would love to hear more piano versions like this.

Stephen, it's not often I beg fellow musicians to fulfill my desires. But man... PLEASE (yeah, shouting it out loud), please delight us with your interpretations of both On Reflection and Knots. The contrapuntal richness, and beauty, of those songs would translate really well to the piano, and your interpretation. Superbly done!

Can't stop playing this! Wonderful version.

Wow. Marvelous. The Spirit of the Song.

Baroque 'n roll

Bravo! Excellent arrangement and performance. Wow! Kerry Minnear will need to see and hear what you and he have done!

Challenge! Name a current band as original as GG. Cannot be done.

Imagine a rock band trying to play this piece?

Really, clever arranged - hits the spirit of the song! Congrats! 👏👏👏

Holy cow, I was just thinking of searching for a cover of this song, and this came up. What more do I need? That was brilliant! Thanks for the upload 🙏

Gentle Giant’s heaviest! Absolutely love it👏👏👏👏👏

Holy Moly!! I'm not surprised how well Panurge holds up when seen (heard?) through a classical lens. But Mr. Prutsman lost NOTHING in his comprehensive transcription. I was amazed enough seeing this piece performed by FIVE musicians! 😄🎼
