I have just seen His concert in NOSPR CONCERT HALL KATOWICE, Poland, Sunday the 14th of April 2024 and am amazed by THE ART OF JONATHAN SCOTT! He is Fantastic!
One of the Nation's finest 'Town Hall Organs', played by one of the Nation's finest concert organists. It looks as though the Burghers and Burgesses of Huddersfield take care of their magnificent pipe organ, too.
This organ reminds me of the Alexandra Palace Willis organ in its glory days, with the choir risers on each side. Sadly what's left of it now sits on a small platform. I wish the Scott brothers would do a concert at the Ally Pally, to bring attention to this fine organ, once described as the finest concert organ in England (Marcel Dupré).
A wonderful concert. I enjoyed every note. Thank you Jonathan and Tom for bringing us your amazing music. 😊😊👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
From the dizzying heights of HTH, this extravaganza of sound & Jonathan's musical showmanship 🎩 was captured by Dr Tom's nifty gadgets! 📽🎤 Grateful we can rehear this phantasmagorical spectacle of music-making including Tom's thunderous Tuba Tune!🎉 A treat for all ages! 🙆♀️ Well done; great program showcasing the range of this fabulous organ! ❤❤🎹🎶
,
The Ruslan and Ludmila Overture has been one of my favourite classical pieces for years. I'm in awe of the transcription and the ability to play it! Wonderful, Jonathan!
Absolutely love Tom’s Tuba Tune. Such a refreshing, happy piece. Beautifully played Jonathan.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I've a recording of this piece played by Virgil Fox on a Wirlitzer. Brilliant.
I have a 33rpm of Virhil Fox playing Scott Joplin on the pedal harpsichord, it is so unusual.
Ahh the grand Hornpipe and Air from Water Music the most esteemed Dr. George Friedrich Handel. Jonathon plays this grand piece in the key of D major however another common transcription of this piece is in the key of G major.
Everything was incredibly wonderful: Jonathan's performance, Tom's composition and video, and also the concert venue! Thank you both!
Handel, wonderful. 🙂 Vivaldi - love listening to you Jonathan, camera work 👍Tom.
Saving to come to England for December 2024 to see the "Boys" in action.
They are so amazing.
Extraordinary!
What a wonderful Concert and good to hear the excellent capabilities of the Huddersfield Instrument.
Thank you Jonathan and Tom 👏🏻
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Tom's "Tuba Tune" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)
Dr Tom's Tuba Tune is very upliftingly versatile for weddings and birthdays. I think this suits my girlfriend's birthday or wedding😅
Hello! Thank you for ! It's adorable concert! thanks for the opportunity to see this!❤🎉🎉🎉
Wow! What a thoroughly enjoyable concert to watch and listen to on a dull, cold Sunday afternoon! Thank you so much. Jonathan and Tom.
Wow I have been to many concerts in the town hall as a life long Huddersfield resident but this was the best by far. we look forward to you retuning soon.
Great Tuba Tune, Tom! 💕💕💕🎶
What a privilege to be invited to partake in such an excellent concert in the splendiferous setting of Huddersfield Town Hall, superlatively filmed by Dr Tom Scott. Mr Jonathan Scott created a truly harmonious programme: his inclusion of his brother’s new composition ‘Tuba Tune’ demonstrated Dr Scott’s highly regarded ability in that sphere.
I will ever, dear gentlemen, be the greatest admirer of your prodigious talents.
It's starting out great. What a wonderful treat. I can't wait to hear Toms' Tuba Tune (?). xx PS As it turned out, I love Dr. Toms. Tuba Tune. It was so light and lively. I love Grieg's home in Bergen. It is magical.
Fantastic concert. Hearing that organ again reminds me of the 1st time I heard it on an LP by town hall organist, Johnathan Beilby
Thoroughly enjoyed Tuba Tune! Any plans to perform at Winchester Cathedral? :)
Superb pieces and sublime performance again!
Beautiful concert, full of beautiful musical pieces. Thank you Jonathan and Tom. Congratulations! Unforgettable... 🙌👏♥️😍🥰😘🎹🎼🎵🎶🎥📸💖💓💥⚡️💯🫶🎉🎆
Now that God gifted you with such a beautiful music, I pray that he may as well give you a 200 years of health and amazing performances
Once again we have been able to follow a magnificent concert. Congratulations!!😘😘
The place, despite being a little old, has an excellent organ, which sounds very transparent and at the same time with a lot of 'lordship'. I suppose this is due, in large part, to the incredible acoustics of the room, where each note can be appreciated with great clarity.
The concert begins with M.Glinka's overture. It is a great entry that promises a great spectacle.
Congratulations to Tom, for your great work recording and filming, but above all for your work "Tuba Tunes" where your facet as a trumpeter is appreciated...The work is fun, cantabile and with a certain imperial stamp. It could perfectly serve as a soundtrack for a movie! 😂😂
The 'Ride of the Valkyries' piece was a magnificent ending. Piece of great virtuosity with a tremendous ending that Jonathan has played to perfection, as usual.
Thank you both once again for your generosity in sharing your work with your followers!!💖❤
Bravo, loved the whole concert, sublime registration in the Dvorak
Superb presentation, Gentlemen! I love the whimsical sense of humour in the Description and Mr Jonathan's accompanying information about the Great Huddersfield Pipe Organ and of each piece he played. Well done, Dr Tom; your Tuba Tune will be a great encore piece for concert organists before Exeunt Stage Right with Sweeping Bow, to ecstatic applause!
Counting the hours
Wonderful concert Gentlemen! I really enjoyed Tuba Tune! Thanks as always!
What a magnificent instrument!! It is such a pleasure to see & hear this wonderful organ & to know that it is still used so much, as so few are these days. Your programme Jonathan was so varied & hugely enjoyable. The Lute Concerto gave me goosebumps, as I remembered the 1st time I heard it when you played it so expressively at the Holy Name Church during the pandemic. Your performance then affected me greatly also. Dr. Tom's Tuba Tune is so jolly & bright - well done Tom! Thank you both for this amazing concert, the sights & sounds brought me great joy! Well done both of you, this was fabulous!! xx
Beautiful, as usual, I shall never see any of these grand venues, but I can always delight in you and Toms' wonderful concerts. The grand instruments, (piano and organ), never fail to lift me up. Thanking you both, play on.
Really enjoy your performances. Years ago I started transcribing Ruslan and Ludmilla! But I never finished. Great to hear it performed on the organ as I knew it would work. I only did one transcription that gain any popularity and that was 'Procession of Nobles'. You are welcome to it for the asking.
When you said the "Mrs Sunderland Competition", I briefly thought it was a beauty competition... thank you for the clarification.
I'm already counting the hours!
The concert and video are sure to be amazing as always! I'm very curious to hear Tom's new composition! Thank you both for everything!
An Impressive programme for this Greatest Town Hall Concert 🎉
Superb! What a marvellous collaboration - stunning visually and aurally. As often as I've heard the Dvorak Largo, this performance brought out aspects I'd never noticed, and the Wagner was just thrilling. Thank you both so much for this opportunity to experience this magnificent instrument and its hall.
I have known the first piece (Glinka) for years, but this is the first performance I have ever found thrilling.
Brilliant!
(And what a superb instrument.)
Roll up! Roll up!
🎉
Wow amazing but i missed the premiere so i hat to watch it on recap after the premiere
Love Tom's Tuba Tune!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hallo!!

It brings a lot of Joy!!!
Thank you B. B. Great Great!!!
❤❤With Love from the Netherlands
The BEST!!!
Great concert & performance Johnathan. Great selection of music. Thks to Tom for the video & its high std. What is Tom a Dr of?
PhD in Music awarded by Manchester University
Bravo!
豪華ですね🎵
Merci pour ce concert exceptionnel, filmé magnifiquement, avec comme d'habitude une grande intelligence d'interprètation. 🙏
Many Thanks My Dear Brothers. As always a beautiful concert.
Imposing pipe organ. Wonderful renditions of Vivaldi and Grieg.
It is really a great privilege to enjoy your music, videos and Jonathan s enthusistic introductions.
You are very very generous.
Is it just me or does Manchester appear to be the center of the Organ World? So many truly great organs within very short distances of Manchester! You have been truly blessed to have the honor of playing such amazing concerts on so many of them. I'm not denigrating the great organs of the world but there are so very many amazing organs and truly gorgeous and inspirational cathedrals right in your back yard! Thaks again for an amazing concert. Thanks to Tom for his usual excellent job of matching the beauty of the Town Hall to the music as well as for the new composition!
Please do another vlog on how the two of you collaborate, how many arrangements you have done and how often you have to do new transcriptions for different organs or halls, and another of those where the two of you sit and just talk--it goes so far in showing the relationship between the two of you, your mutual love of music, your mutual respect for each other and for the classical artists as well as your appreciation of the fantastic venues where you regale us with your music and videos.
I will repeat--your parents must be exceedingly proud of you and Tom, RNCM must be proud to have both of you as graduates, Manchester must be proud of her MOST FAMOUS musicians to ever come from the town (sorry Beatles but it's true) and all of England must be proud as well.
My question for the vlog--Jonathan, do you do registrations in your sleep? It must be almost automatic at this stage of your career!! Tom, how many cameras do you use in a typical video such as this one at Huddersfield? Do you use a drone for some of your shots? How long did it take you to do Tuba Tune?
errr, weren't the Beatles from Liverpool?
@@timwainwright2999 I'm sorry that I wasn't clear at that point. I know the Beatles were from Liverpool and honestly thought I was still talking about the area around Manchester. The Beatles were rock and roll where the Scott Brothers are more classical musicians and the cathedrals in which they have performed and shared videos are amazingly stunning. I have enjoyed the history and the opposrtunity to see these beautiful edifices with the accompaniment of organ or organ and piano. As a teenager when the Beatles "hit the scene--yes I remember Ed Sullivan with the Beatles and with Elvis) I sit in awe of the talent of these brothers. They are not one-dimensional performers but are true artists in the musical sense.
BTW Tim, it is barely 30 miles from Manchester to Liverpool. In some American cities, that would be considered across town!!
@@annemcgirt5296 I guess it's all a question of scale though I'd advise against telling a LIverpudlian they are just a suburb of Manchester! Actually I only went to Liverpool for the first time myself last year and this after haviing lived just 50 miles from the city. Had a great time, visited the Cavern Club which was really buzzy and went round both Cathedrals - the Anglican one has a monster of an organ, hopefully the Scotts will get an opportunity to play and record there. Well worth a visit if you are planning on travelling to UK at some point. Have a Great Christmas.
Really enjoying the Tuba Tune!
Das Tuba tune ist einfach großartig 👍👍😀😀😀
Bravo, Tom, on your Tuba Tune. Loved it!
Tom's Tuba Tune is magnificent and sounded like it was written for this very organ in Huddersfield Town Hall!🎺📯🎹
Fantastic Concert! Thanks Jonathan & Tom! Was great to see you both at The Bridgewater Hall on Monday!
Another wondeful offering from the Scott brothers! Just the ticket for these dark evenings.
Love hearing such compositions from you Tom 😁
Yo también agradezco a los hermanos Scott tan maravillosas interpretaciones. Gracias. Saludos desde Querétaro (México). Juve Flores.
What superlatives to add to those already posted is my problem. But what a pleasant one it is! Both Jonathan’s mastery of the keys and pedals and Tom’s genius with the video camera are a total treat for the soul. Overflowing thanks to you two talented and generous guys. May heaven-sent blessings and provisions abound for you and yours. A grateful San Diego fan!
Absolutely amazing concert! I love it! 🤗👍👏👏👏👏❤️
Just loved Tom's Tuba Tune - thank you to both for a wonderful concert!

Wunderbar vorgetragen 😊❤Dank
I have to say that I become very emotional when watching you play, Jonathan. Your talent (and yours, as well, Tom) is overwhelming. I loved Tom's Tuba Tune - what a fun piece of music. The transcriptions are wondeful to hear and a challenge for the organist. Thank you both for these online concerts and for sharing your wonderful talent with all of us.
Bravo Tom, for the new piece! Great concert! Raleigh, NC
the tuba tune was AMAZING Piece it waas very relaxing music 😍😍😍😍
Glorious from start to end and Dr. scotts new piece is absolutely lush! . It should be nicknamed 'The Vanguard' 👍 I'll defo be needing the sheet music to it. thanks lads 👌
Che meraviglia!
Bei uns im Nachbar Ort Billerbeck gibt er auch am Pfingstsonntag auch ein Orgelkonzert.
Das wird bestimmt auch sehr gut 😀😀👍👍
Nice piece Tom
Thank you both! Your concerts just get better and better. Tom, your recording of this concert was your best yet. In my AV room I was transported from Eagan Minnesota. I could have been the hall. I loved your Tuba Tune. I think you aced out C.S. Lang! I am so grateful for the trouble you take over these online concerts.
That was a fantastic concert! I like these concerts, organs have beatuiful sound and the songs are also amazing.
Thoroughly enjoyed your concert, listening to you here in NZ . Your playing is so wonderful, and passionate. Well done Jonathan 🎉,
Sorry guys for not responding earlier yust now had a chance to listen to this wonderful concert holidays etc I listened to it twice what a delight thanks for always brighten my days happy holidays to you two!!
Grazie, Maestro.
Splendid.It’s so wonderful to have this new dangled video so that we can watch repeats! I’ve been to numerous concerts at the Town Hall; only live 2 miles away but rarely hear the organ played so well!
This is great quality music.
As usual all fantastic, but particularly liked your translation of the Grieg, usually like the piano version but the organ stops sounded really fantastic, very noticeable how well the organ tuning was, many thanks to Tom for video and great sound.
Wow. This organ is so huge and amazing. Thanks a lot for your outstanding concert. Your playing is fantastic and I like the pieces as well.
I'm just dreaming of a concert with John Wilson and his Sinfonia of London in the Huddersfield Town Hall, joined by Jonathan Scott in the Saint-Saëns Organ Symphony. Two of the UK's most interesting and adventurous musicians working together.
❤❤❤
This is amazing. So inspiring!
Formidablomatastique! 😂
