Thank you again Richard. Your comments around remembering Carmen were something special.

wow what a great VC so much of my favorite hymns so good for the soul makes me happy. thank you Richard and all who asked for the played hymns etc. such a great top five. Hugo's Lullebye verse two Shine in the heavens three little bright stars, floating so softly trough the blue sky. Dancing together twinkling and laughing, there stardust falls on baby's eyes. Sleep baby sleep so gently and warm, you are so blessed to tenderly loved. Sleep baby sleep until it's a new-day, these little stars will lead the way.

Wonderful evening! Thank you for everything!

Loved the Paul Manz arrangement (among everything else)! Thanks, Richard.

Its nice to see you Bach on bench for another VC.

Wonderful, the music was wonderful and spectacular. 🎼🙏

Thank you, Richard, for your fantastic playing of my prerequest, Songs and Hymns of Zion SHZ 183 - "Rise, O Defender, our God" We had a lot of nice hymns tonight and Toccata at the end was magnificent!!! 👏👏👏👏

BWV 540 to start off the Virtual Church🤩Thank you Richard

Wonderful! My favorite this evening was "You Have Come Down To The Lake Shore", such a beautiful melody.

Beautiful

Thanks!

Great VC. That piece by Elgar was lovely. Wonderful top 5 by Fern. Most of her selections match mine.

British Virgin Islands, other than music in church today, it’s Elina Garanča singing Mon cœur s'ouvre à ta voix, from Saint-Saens Samson and Delilah. Thank you, Richard, for your beautiful playing and for sharing yourself and your passion with the world. Will send in my hymn requests in due course, likely starting with the Lord is King Lift Up Thy Voice, James Elliott, Church Triumphant tune I think. 😊

Thank you! I wasn't able to watch it live because of my work schedule. I wasn't sure if you ever heard of "You Have Come Down To The Lakeshore." My church in Pennsylvania has sung the English version of this hymn several times over the years. It sounds better in Spanish. Believe it or not, there are Spanish-speaking Lutheran churches.
