Will we ever have the great pleasure of hearing such a faithful performer live? Perhaps here in the churches of Rome? That would be wonderful. Congratulations and always thank you!
Bonsoir Xavier, Quel bonheur, vous avez enfin réalisé mon rêve, je vous en avait parlé il y a quelques mois. Ce prélude en mi bémol majeur BWV 552 est une pure merveille. Dès les premières notes on est transporté dans cet univers si riche et complexe mais aussi tellement beau du grand Jean Sébastien Bach. Le prélude est tellement majestueux et le jeu en écho superbe. C’est une œuvre de Bach que j’ai écouté certainement des centaines de fois depuis fort longtemps (dans les années 1970) interprété par le grand organiste Helmut Walcha devenu aveugle précocement. Vous pouvez être fier de votre interprétation, tout est parfait 👍👌👏 Un immense merci pour ce partage 🎵 🎼 Au plaisir de vous entendre dans d’autres œuvres de ce magnifique compositeur qui semble vous tenir tant à cœur (peut être la fugue ?). Amicalement. Alain
Complimenti esecuzione perfetta, mi ricorda molto l’interpretazione del grande Helmut Walka che ho ascoltato negli anni 70 e che mi ha avvicinato ed appassionato alla musica organistica. Grazie e spero in altri video.❤
Oh my gosh! From the first chords, I knew it was going to be a great ride. Thank you so much; because of performers like you, Bach's organ pieces never tire.
This is the quite recently released Hauptwerk Erfurt Predigerkirche sample set, right? Great organ playing! Btw the Erfurt Predigerkirche is certainly worth a visit. It houses quite a few historic tomb stones, with some fine examples of the 15th and 16th habit of depicting adult female deceased with a covered mouth, which fashion still awaits its conclusive explanation.
Thank you very much for that really great performance of one of my favourite organ pieces by J.S.Bach. How long did you work on that piece until you get it playing in such a great performance?
Thanks ! I took organ lessons for 5 years as a teenager, then there was a 30-years gap until I discovered Hauptwerk. I also have some kind of college degree in musicology and I am a (very bad) jazz pianist.
You can't hear my speakers in the video. The recording is done internally within Hauptwerk, then the wav file is processed with a reverb (Lexicon) and a mastering plugin (Izotope Ozone).
