FREIBURG CATHEDRAL - Part I (The Joy of Music with Diane Bish)

8524 FREIBURG CATHEDRAL - Part I - Diane Bish was the first American woman to record in the great Gothic cathedral of Freiburg, Germany, where four magnificent organs are played from one console for an incredible musical feast. Music includes: Karg-Elert "Now Thank We All Our God," Handel "Hornpipe and Air" from Water Music, Bach "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," Clarke "Trumpet Voluntary," and Widor "Allegro" from Symphony 5.

My dream would be to sit in the epicenter of this magnificent cathedral and listen to Ms Bish play the final movement of Saint-Saens Organ Symphony. Awesome!!!

[@muhindomichael7314]

Its my dream too though am sure it can't be
true

[@pthfndr1]

Bucket list destination for sure!

Although still stunning, it's about time for remastering. The video in particular is showing its age.

[@ecoRfan]

And quite some musical selections too! Could hardly pick much better. She puts so much raw emotion into performances.

I was a student at the University of Freiburg and this awesome cathedral was my parish church.

This is the first episode of JOM I ever saw on television, sometime in 1989. It may still be my favorite, as Freiburg Cathedral is one of the most grand places on earth and how can you miss pairing it with the artistry Diane brings.

I hope but doubt you'll see this but you playing Anglican music in the Catholic church where my great greeat grandparents were married before they had to emigrate to the U.S. in 1874 when my great grandfather was 2 years old combines both sides of my German families. The torture they went through in the decision to leave was taught even to me.(b1958)

[@ursulajohansen7739]

I loved it. Congratulations! Very beautiful.

6:48 hornpipe

[@thomasricardo9833]

Wonder when this was recorded. The 4 digit post codes indicate that it must have been before 1993. Guess in the early 80s.

[@akguy4u]

It was in 1985 8524 24th recording in 1985

[@keyplayer123]

This is Program 8524: in series order, this means 1985 program 24. In that time, Diane produced 26 programs per year. The raw tape might have been from anytime in the year prior to release. (I worked for JOM in the early 90s.)

[@ecoRfan]

Wow this video is 34 years old but timeless as anything.

[@christianfeldmann8287]

What reeds are use in hornpipe?

[@ryanmozert]

The guy who wrote J. Clarke's piece commited suicide, though
