- Before the work starts on the Rieger organ in Marienstatt Abbey, we visited Frater Gregor one last time to chat and hear him play the organ. Nobody knows this organ better - here, Frater Gregor improvises for us, showing the magnificent organ's impressive dynamic range.

Everybody gangsta until the Friar starts absolutely shredding
Absolutely love this improvisation. I was hooked from the very beginning and really sat up and took notice with the addition of one of the pedal reeds at 4:49. I’ll definitely watch/listen many more times!
That was a simply amazing improvisation. Brother Gregor is an awesome organist - and what an organ he has to demonstrate his Divinely inspired talent. Magnificent!
Bravo, Frater Gregor and Rieger!
Wow, what a sound! 👏🔊♥️
This organ is a MONSTER! 😀
Simply wonderful. Brother Gregor is a very talented organist indeed
One day I want to visit these MAGNIFICENT Churches and hear the organs. You are so privileged to have this beautiful music in your life. Love this!!
Thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love from sunny South Africa 🇿🇦
Frater Gregor's improvisation skills are amazing!
literally did not know this was improv
Absolutely incredible improvisation! Such originality and classicism, not to mention the mastery of this instrument! The balance (registration) of that final passage is incredible! I didn't want the last chord to end!
That, was very majestic!
What a brilliant improviser!
Stunning...absolutely stunning. Someone should transcribe this. It is a great piece to showcase an instrument and the organist.
I second the motion in favour of a transcription.
Well now, that gentleman certainly seems to know his way around a pipe organ for sure. No sheet music in front of him either. I’m impressed.👍👍🇨🇦
Well, it IS “his” organ! He plays 4-5 hours every day in the abbey for services/prayers etc!
Magnificent rendition by Brother Georg, I’m in awe!
Tolle Improvisation, Frater Gregor! Und das herzliche Lachen am Schluß ist nicht minder wertvoll :-)
Bravo Frère Grégor, magnifique improvisation !
Merci à vous.

Was für ein toller Organist mit einer grossen Orgel. Respekt!
Truly FANTASTIC! The Rieger sound is so exciting and on this scale it is truly magnificent. Amazing recording too!! Bravo!!
I like Rieger organs too! Great sounds!
when the low sounds came in i was stunned
Agreed.
Wow. diese Rieger- Orgel klingt bombastisch !!!! Schöne Intonation der Register und eine Super Orgel mit unzählig vielen Klangmöglichkeiten mit Windcresendo, Cresendotritte bzw. Schwellertritte.
Wow. Ich fand die Orgel schon bei euren ersten Besuch genial. Was für eine tolle Demonstration von Pater Gregor!
Danke, dass ihr das aufgenommen und hochgeladen habt.
I love symphonic improvisation’s on grand pipe organs!
Great performance. Thank you for posting
i have listened to this 8 times by now. many more to come :D
thank you
Really? I am excited, just my first time now! 😉
Who on earth gives this a thumbs down?
Absolutely tremendous - both the improvisation and the instrument. Thank you.
Great improvisation! Looking forward to the finished project! :D
Wat een super mooi orgel en een super organist, geweldig. Dank je wel.
Beautiful sound produced by a master organist.
Frater Gregor is a génius.
Amazing sound and so magestic! Wonderful!
Wonderful! And such a relaxed disposition.
Frater Gregor and his big organ, next: Frater Gregor and his huge organ, I like it :-D.
Wunderschön!
very nice, the beginning and some other moments remind me of widors organ symphony #6
Wow He's a great improvisor!
That's Wonderful Father !
Hi Fraser, thanks so much for capturing this magical improvisation, absolutely stunning! I was spell bound watching it, total mastery of the instrument and a beautiful theme.
All the best for the organ restoration and enlargement, I can't wait to hear the finished product!
Take care, John from Australia
Gorgeous in every way!
& Jhr. Humphrey, Frater, What am Beautiful touch, every note is Brilliant, Amazing.
Beautiful 'wooden' sound and a very accomplished organist: what more can you want.
Bruder Du bist ein absoluter Genie, und ich hätte gesagt, dass Ihre Improvisation nicht von anderen als der Meister des Orgels selbst war - Bach !
Die Kirche in Marienstatt ist einer der schönsten die ich kenne.👍
Superb
Wow, intense. I think Father might need to go to confession after that!
Amazing !
The improv was so beautiful that I thought this was composed and the Reiger Organ is stunning.
Superb.
Blows me away.
My soul was touched by God.
Such beautiful sounding organ this is. Thank you for sharing. Liked 👍
Wonderful!
Great work!
Beautiful music Well played 🎹
Outstanding
My headphones can't handle the dynamic range! Need to listen on proper speakers later, sounds very good.
Oh finally :D, this organ is one of the greatest you ever brought on the channel. It will be interesting to see how it'll be once the works are finished. I'm actually beginning to think that someone should make a sample set based on this organ...
Your wish may come true one day!
A real master and genius!!
Bravo fantastic improvisation and sound 👏🏻🍻
lovely piece!
Wow! That was fun! Thank you.
Wow!
Frater your playing is Wonderful also Brilliant. Merci.
Delicious. I think I remember you saying that they're adding another floating division, or something.
Something divine🤗❤️
lieber Fraser!!!
Pater Gregor, eine Emminenz...
und wie grundergreifend die Basstöne am Pedal klingen....
herzlichen Dank für dieses Video
Gruß aus Argentinien
Really well done! 👍
Gud hører også denne orgelkoncert
Grandee complimenti.
Amen
Wonderful! I hear Mendelssohn and Reger in his playing.
SUPERB, BRILLIANT, ASTOUNDING, MAGNIFICENT, OUTSTANDING!!!!! And those are an understatement!!!
Brillant, der Mann sollte weniger beten und dafür die Noten für dieses Meisterwerk raushauen, ganz große Show für alle die eine tolle Orgel mit viel Atmosphäre und breite genießen wollen 👍 ps: fraser, ich warte immer noch auf die Suite gothique boellmann von dir 😉
Wow! The glorious thunder! But this instrument needs work done on it? It sounds as good as a newly installed organ! The only Rieger I have ever played (or heard in person) only sounds less impressive due to a more dry acoustic.
This was so exciting to listen to; I'm about to listen all over again.
Where do I sign up to become a Frater at Marienstatt and get to play this organ on a daily basis?
Dass jemand so kontrapunktisch improvisieren kann hätte ich nicht für möglich gehalten. Ist das spontan gespielt oder beruht das auf vorherigen Improvisationen?
Spontan!
I'm sorry Fraser but this is more beautiful than Hauptwerk;)
It’s not possible to hear a difference in sound quality via a recording between Hauptwerk and a real pipe organ. Hauptwerk is literally just another pipe organ recording, only the mixing of the individual pipe sounds is done at a different moment; After the recording instead of before it. Sure a real organ is a real organ, but saying that you can hear the difference is just biased preference.
@@Engineer9736 You might not be able to hear a difference, Richard, positive or negative. Some may be able.
The samplesets from hauptwerk are recorded sounds from a pipe organ but to make it sounds good it is edited so you can hear difference, maybe not with the soft stops but surely with full organ
@@numbersix1908 I was speaking from scientific facts, Number Six, not from what i hear.
@@Engineer9736 I think Hauptwerk software is stunningly great, but, you're a mentalist! I am only glad I do not live in a world where art, and music, is reduced to scientific 'facts'
Bravo Vater Gregor, grüss von ein Priester aus Kroatien :)
Tolle Improvisation
Treba ovu improvizaciju iz snimke prevesti u note!
Ich hatte mal die Ehre drauf spielen zu dürfen. Allein die Orgel wäre schon eine Überlegung ins Kloster einzutreten ;-)
Excelente!!!
Its very Good playing of frater Gregor.
Dick,tsaf
❤️
Schade, dass Frater Gregor am Ende von den Vorschaubildern verdeckt wird. 😟
Un petit tour à l'abbaye de Cîteaux en France Merci.
👏 👏 👏
Geiles Feuerwerk 🎆
Improviation auf C.M. Widor - Allegro Symphonie 6?
Wonderful improvisation - in the style of Mendelssohn maybe?
hints of brahms too
Risum excussum non amare!
Sounds very Regerish-excellent
In my experience, Riegers only sound "great" in a room like this, otherwise they can sound really raw. This was great.
This one has also had a number of additions and substitutions (much of it from old English pipework) to warm it up.
Is it true that Rieger Orgelbau include a case of beer with their finished work? I heard it somewhere but I may be confusing the builders :-) Bach was paid partially in beer and partially in firewood (besides cash).
Well, I've been working on that organ, and I haven't found it (yet)! ;-)
@@michaelkaubrugge1039 I may have confused the companies then. One CZcams video shows the Rieger organ at the Ratzeburg Cathedral featuring a stop called "Rauschwerk" :-) which opens a small cupboard strategically positioned next to the organ bench! (And AFAIK it's a part of the pedal division - go figure.)
I once played the Rieger organ in Mönchengladbach, and that had the organ key on VW key blanks! They obviously have a sense of humour.
Will you still be filming the work as it happens?
Yep!
Hello master
listen to Widor Allegro, 6eme symphonie
was sagt er am Schluß? "Wollen Sie?" oder so..:-)
Haha! Er fragt ob er "zu früh" war mit dem "General Cancel"!
Wow a real pipe organ for change
Cacaphonic! ~ i like it!
Moin meister
nice
What’s the name of this piece he’s playing?
It’s an improvisation!
Jesus for You Father
Who is the builder of this wonderful Organ?
