Mark, you couldn't have answered THAT question any better. Play what you like and if people want to listen to what your playing, they will!
enjoyed this ASK session, after I had listened to Mark ‘s Carma lab session of this weekend 👏👏👏 🙏🙏🙏
I very much enjoyed this, especially Mr Herman’s comments about preservation. As someone who is a preservationist and organ enthusiast as a hobbyist, I often am appalled by dramatic alterations, and it was good to hear the opinion of a well known and skilled organist on the subject of organs as artefacts.
A friend and I bought a 4 rank Robert Morton which still had it's original marimba, xylophone and traps. It was a blast to play! My home instrument is 5 ranks and I love it.
Very excellent interview with one of America's best theatre organists.
Good music with which to haunt a spooky old house: Poulenc: Concerto in g for Organ, Strings & Tympani. I said it before and I'll say it again: "Theater Organists are GODS (or at least, extra-terrestrials)."
I saw him in person, July 2017 in OKC. An amazing artist and all-around nice guy.
