Antoine Baril - One Man Genesis

I've been a semi-professional musician for over 30 years now (gosh, I'm old). And a Genesis fan for closer to 40 years. Your talent is off the charts. Your equipment (and access to equipment) is amazing. Your ability to nail these complex songs, in all of their oddball time signatures, ON MULTIPLE INSTRUMENTS is... nope... there aren't words for that.

Supper's Ready, Cinema Show and Firth Of Fifth are the finest music pieces ever written

I am 62 Years Old and Have been listening to EVERY GENESIS ALBUM ever recorded since I was 15 years old........and THIS IS FABULOUS !!!!!!! Thank You for posting and taking the time to create such a WONDERFUL musical Tribute to THE GREATEST BAND to EVER walk this Planet. Thank You.....I will be sharing this.

Look at all these Genesis fans. These are my people. All of these people commenting appear to be accomplished musicians and far more knowledgeable about music than I am. I'm just glad I was on the right track.

411 dislikes. How? Even if you’re not a fan of Genesis or prog rock this guy is a fantastic musician and all credit too him for this amazing piece.

To attain the musicianship of any one member of Genesis would be remarkable. To play at the same level as all 4 (instrumentalists) should be beyond what is humanly possibly. Yet, here is Antoine. I’m just blown away. What an inspiration!

mon chere antoine, j'ai maintenant 65 ans et mon band préféré a toujours été genesis encore aujourd'hui, je préfére l'époque de peter gabriel et de loin, j'ai d'ailleurs vu 4 spectacles de ce groupe avec peter a l'université de montréal ainsi qu'au forum de montréal, les billets a cette époque coutaient 5.50 $ . j'ai regardé ton vidéo et tu n'as pas chomé tu as vraiment du talent mais tu as du pratiquer des heures et des heures pour en arriver la, je te félicite. D'apres ton nom j'ai l'impression que tu viens du Québec ai-je raison ? Tout ce qu'il te manque c'est une voix, j'avais pas mal la voix de peter mais avec le temps la voix en a perdue uh peu. Tu sais qu'a l'époque la musique progressive provenant principalement d'angleterre était tres appréciée surtout au Québec avec les groupes comme gentle giant, yes, the stawbs, jethro tull, king crimson et d'autres. J'ai également remarqué que tu était assez bien équipé en instruments de musique avec les memes instruments qu'ils avaient a l'époque, cela a du te couter une beurrée. Continu a faire entendre au monde cette musique d'autrefois avec ces compositions complexes, pas comme la musique d'aujourd'hui qui n'a pas d'ame et sans couleurs. Alors sur ce, je te salut.

Watcher of the Skies - 0:00 Dance on a Volcano - 1:07 Fly on a Windshield - 2:08 Firth of Fifth - 2:36 Dancing with the Moonlit Knight - 3:20 Supper's Ready (Apocalypse in 9/8) - 4:14 The Cinema Show - 4:47 Robbery Assault & Battery - 8:10 Down and Out - 8:40 All in a Mouse's Night - 9:31 Second Home by the Sea - 10:44 Los Endos - 12:40 Brazil - 14:42

And that, kids, is a musician actually playing his instruments! :)

No idea how many times I’ve watched this and each time I am left in awe.

Only found this by accident and i can't believe how good this is, every Genesis fan needs to see this.Having been a member of the original Hogweed youth movement way back at the beginning and following Genesis everywhere in those early days this has brought back so many great memories of those times.You sir are an amazing musician and deserve success in whatever direction you travel on the musical highway,thank you so much for this 😊

First seen Genesis 1971 in Glasgow. Favourite band. This guy would as they say " Nailed it" big time. Absolutely on the money. True professional.

watched it tens of times, still enjoy it, unfortunately I can put only ONE thumb up !!! it deserves hundred of these !

He’s even sitting down when doing the Hackett parts.

Just shows how complex their music was . Them drum fills alone. Absolutely fantastic stuff.

Antoine, I'm sure you're tired of hearing this over and over again, but you are one off-the-charts, seriously talented dude! You're so good, it's ridiculous!😱As a huge fan of Genesis, your video has moved my soul! Your Rush and Yes videos, heck, all your videos are also awesome! Worthy of many standing ovations! Please keep doing what you do as long as you can!👏👏👏😎

I hate this clip, once I start it's impossible to stop

I am a 57 year old Genesis purist....but you Sir, earned my respect ! Beautiful !

This guy is from another world (and a Canadian!), pure awesomeness dude! Love the dedication to your dad, he is for sure super happy and proud of you.

Awesome! Greatest one man band on Earth! Gave me the chills as soon as the guitar and drums started. For much of this we have to thank the incredible Tony Banks. They were all great musicians - but so are you, playing all instruments!!! 💯👍🎶🎵
