    Mr Scott is the first organist I see playing on two manuals with one hand simultaneously with the thumb playing the main tune, and that's just amazing. He skilfully uses registration to bring out the best effect. Simply the best rendition of Tanhaeuser that leaves you very uplifted.

I couldn't move my fingers fifty years ago as fast as he does and being in my 70's, I can only dream. They stumble over each other just doing the scale. We love you Jonathon. Keep us inspired during these days of uncertainty. Kudo's also to Thomas for fabulous video. Job well done to both.

    Johnathan, Johnathan. I just listened and watched you play this four times in a row. One of my best buddies who was taught by Alexander McCurdy at Curtis institute just passed away, and when I sent him your CZcams performances thought you were absolutely, absolutely amazing. During the last year of his life, I sent him all your CZcams performances, and they made him grateful for your uplifting gift and grateful for all the years he could be the organist at the first Anglican and post Revolutionary Episcopal Church in America.

    On dit souvent que les grandes orgues valent l'orchestre symphonique... belle démonstration avec cette transcription pour cet instrument et cet organiste qui fait corps avec ses claviers et son pédalier ... serein dans sa maitrise des différents jeux , entre les claviers et avec son talent dans le doigté mais aussi dans les nuances du récitatif il nous fait découvrir les sonorités, le timbre particulier de certains jeux ... et il sait aussi nous faire attendre toute la puissance du grand orgue dans les dernières parties ... avec toujours le thème principal qui ressort .... bravo! très agréablement surpris par cette interpretation .. on ne s'ennuie pas bien au contraire .. toujours en attente de découvrir les possibilités de cet instrument bien mis en valeur .. merci !
