To you who are listening to this inspiring music, may you have a wonderful day today!!!
It will always be a wonderful day when Jonathan plays Bach for us.
It is May 30, 2021. People are returning to church. I look forward to leading hymns at the Organ well suited to praise GOD: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit on this, Trinity Sunday.
May you each one and all have a spirit-filled time of
worship and making time during this holiday weekend
to seeing friends & loved ones
Et cum spiritu tuo.
It's not just the organ, the natural reverb from the old church and it's high stone walls is an essential part of the experience to give the parishioners the feeling of being in heaven. Nowadays we have digital reverb, but in the old days the only way to get this beautiful sound was to build these huge cathedrals.
i want us to take a second and appreciate the shear amount of mental aptitude sharpness and accuracy this has to take his brain is operating at full efficiency and the duration of this one piece yet alone this among others in an entire concert, not to mention the scope of what this man can play , and to each piece he gives 100 percent accuracy and expression is flawless. this is simply amazing and i do not say this lightly but Johnathan Scott is the absolute finest that this world has to offer he is the greatest organist of our time.
Wonderful, this is why Bach is my favorite composer
Hi friend, I have been your subscriber more than 1year and I played this. You have wonderful days.
OK. This is perhaps the best performance of this piece I've ever had the privilege to hear.
The sensitive rubato in the prelude is simply amazing, and turns what so many organists would render as sewing-machine notes into rare music.
But, please, do have someone check the voicing of what seems to be the 1' principal on the great at G5. It shrieks.
That's the charm of church organs, they are never 'perfect' due to temperature, moisture etc.
I have listened to many of your sessions... I cant play my self.. But i want to..... I love organ,, and Bach! And all your performance... I do listen to... Thank you! 🙏👍
A wonderful way to start my Saturday morning. Thank you, Jonathan!
I will never get tired of listening to this perfect rendition.
Perfect dialogue among all the sounds and voices of the organ.
Thanks Jonathan and Tom
Can i make a wish?... Bww 542.🙏love organ and Bach! 🙏😊
Thank you Jonathan! You played that exactley the way i want to! Thank you❤
The section at 7:55 is sublime, not just in the Bach piece, but the slight rubato added to heighten the sense of enjoyment of these few bars in this version which seem to hang in space and suspend time, despite the fugue pushing forward to its inevitable conclusion. Bach did not hang about in these later mature fugues. Great stuff, great version, wonderful English organ which is registered so well for a baroque masterpiece.
Bravo again!! Thank you so much Jonathan perfect.
The most powerful and best iv'e ever heard!!!! And I'm an expert at listening!!! ❤❤🤗🙏🎹
One of my favorite top 5 bach pieces of all time.. 👍
Which are the others?
Same. Here.
@@hjgk4568 I'll bet one is is theToccata and fugue in d minor.
Wonderful moment of bliss listening to a Bach Prelude & Fugue brilliantly played by a master organist on a fantastic concert organ (formerly Glasgow City Hall organ) in an 800 yr old parish church.
I love the drama you establish at 7:00!!! Really a tremendous performance!
I fully agree! It's like a loud, painful cry full of sorrow and despair, longing to receive an answer from the pedal division. The piece itself is full of such emotions but this very part of it just made it a lot more breathtaking.
Loving it from Sydney Australia Jonathon :)
Enjoying your wonderful Bach in Berwyn, Pennsylvania, a western suburb of Philadelphia. Bravo! I hope when the pandemic clears you will visit Philly and play its magnificent organs, the Wanamaker organ at Macy's in Center City, The Curtis organ at Irvine Auditorium on the Penn campus, and the organ at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, the smallest of the three at 10,010 pipes.
A masterclass in organ playing, excellent.😁👍
Absolutely fantastic! It moved me to tears. It must take hours and hours and hours of practice to play it so perfectly. Of course you must have the raw talent to begin with. Bravo! Bravo!
A good foundation early in life and then a big commitment. Thanks Jonathan, one of my favorites
It plays a lot. Too good!
Bravo 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Beautiful and lovely as always Jonathan! 😁👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
Bravo! 👏👏. Watching from Wilmington, Delaware USA
Good lord, the feet my dude. Great work! I love these videos. And I turn the volume all the way up. It’s a difference listing to the organ vs seeing it!
I have a great wish.... That i could listen to you in private... To heare that beautiful organ in elche.. And that fantastic acoustic... Playing wivaldi.. Winter... Fantastic🙏🙏🙏❤❤😢
Svetlana N. Give Thanks for the music soul. Bravo!
Watching from USA - Winston-Salem, NC. Enjoying this so much!
U da man Mr. Scott.
Brilliant.
Magnificent!
素晴らしい演奏、曲をありがとうございます。励ましを受けます。厳粛な中に力を感じます。
Bach organ compositions are inspiring. Even more so when performed so well! Justice done to the work, the instrument and the atmospheric surroundings!
Unbelievable talent When are you going to tour Australia Love to see you play the big tracker instrument in Sydney Regards from OZ
Great and wonderful J.S.Bach and the same can be said for Jonathan. A masterful interpretation of this baroque music of incredible difficulty. Once again I am amazed at such precision and perfection. My most sincere congratulations.👏👏👏💖
Bravo Jonathan
Bravo! Köszönöm :)
Such a wonderful interpretation. Thanks for sharing!
As always, a flawless performance. The photography throughout the church was exquisite. Many praises and thanks to Jonathan and Thomas for wonderful treats to our ears and eyes. What would we do without you during these difficult times keeping our spirits high and giving us always something great to look forward to.
A fantastic performance of a masterpiece. The organ sounds amazing! 💜
Great music and fantastic playing !
Marvelous, as always
I like the sound of pedals at 7:06
👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
Yet another absolutely wonderful rendition of this difficult piece. Bravo!!
superb
A brilliant and inspired performance, Jonathan - I can't believe that I didn't post a comment when I first heard this, over a year ago! Wonderful intrument, too! Stay safe, both of you! Best wishes, as always!
Nothing less than amazing again! I love your registrations - you always manage to capture the best of each organ you play. Looking forward to many, many more posts from you both!
Супер божественная музыка органа для души от супер органиста мира ❤ ! ! !🙂😋😎😀
Brilliant!
Greetings from Eastern Michigan. I don't know how you do it. It took me about twenty years to learn BWV 543 and I never did quite master the fugue!
It's one of the hardest indeed, and very well played here! But... keep always practicing!
An astounding rendition of an astounding piece.
Wonderful, Hope you are going to do all of the prelude & fuges.
That's an excellent idea! That would be fantastic.
Amazing! :O
It's amazing how many times the bass line can be reinterpreted.
Bravo! Excelente 👏👏 performance! Parabéns 👏🎆
As always a fantastic performance!
Splendid
this makes me all so much closer to god, thank you
A beautiful performance, Jonathan. Thanks Jonathan and Tom.
bravo!
이것도 좋구나..
This is an extraordinary arrangement and performance. Wonderful!!! Thank you. don
Bravo!
The mighty genius of Bach.
Great performance! Well done!
The cameraman showed great restraint in not showing the remarkable twisted spire until the end credits; could be distracting! I would be interested to see what Jonathan Scott does with the Fantasia and Fugue BWV542, an almost "headbanging" piece which seems to me to have parallels to the orchestral transcriptions where Jonathan excels.
Prelude 0:00
Fugue 3:30
Isn't this beautiful!
Oh my God!
The glory of Bach!
and I would add the passion, and the drama. The anguish
me encanta
I need to say as a self taught organist who has ways to go before I get to where you are at ( I’ve been plying for 9 months now) you make it look so easy !!! I have a request!!
Mozart symphony No. 25
Well, Mozart no. 25 would be a very hard one to play, also when arranged for organ.
@@RalphLooij I put the organist at my church up to the task, he’s a great musician as well I know Johnathan Scott is the man for the job, it is however beyond my skill level at this time, it’s a very expressive piece , I would love to see how he brings it all out on the organ
@@garypate3201 OK. I'm also very curious about that transcription. I'm certainly no mr. Scott, but I very much like to play transcriptions for organ.
How did you guys get such an amazing sound quality
My question for today is: with complex scoring, fancy fingering, add in the foot work, with your educated eye how much practice does it take to feel comfortable playing the piece? (This is for Jonathan, and Tom too.)
Bravo, bravíssimo! Um grande abraço de Curitiba Paraná Brasil.
Roney. I have been to your beautiful city. X
I Love organ and Bach!!! Is there anyway i can get contact with you? I want to listen to you playing live! Please!🙏🎹🎹🎹
Is there an NPOR listing for this magnificent instrument?
Best Registrierung
I like the way you add some rubato as means of expression, my teacher at school wouldn't allow it. I'm not so sure about the change of manuals with the abrupt change of dynamics, and the early use of pedal reeds in the last section. This piece always sounds like a violin piece and I prefer a more intimate and less grand approach. I played this in my recital at school and reeds were only added in the final bars.
Fugue 3:29
3:30 fugue
3:30 - fugue
My old manual typewriter doesn’t sound nearly this good.
First
First what?
Excellente interpretation! Bravo! Un petit bémol en ce qui concerne la fin à partit de 7:00, la voix faite avec les pieds est un peu trop forte par rapport au reste, malgré la beauté de l’écriture!
So...we all know that Jonathan Scott is the greatest, but who is the second greatest. Do a search for "Marcus Waugh BWV540" on CZcams is my offering, Any other suggestions?
Xavier the Hungarian! CZcams bach passacaglia and fugue on Silbermann in Rotha, germany.
@@amber40494 Very nice. Have you heard the performance of that by Carlo Curley on You tube from 1994...amazingly slow but the opening is so incredibly powerful.
I don't think there is a greatest organist. Since the variety of organ music is so wide, no organist can play all these different kinds of organ music in a satisfying way... Maybe Scott is the best all around organist (which is a compliment of course).
Nice but the majesty is lost because it' s played way too fast.
So many Virtuoso Organists play Bach works too fast and it kills the majesty and in such as a Cathedral with keen acoustics if can sound like a blur of tone however accurate it is played
Bioutifull BUT check Albert Schweitzer playing the fugue >more romantic and sentimental
Mir zu Basslastig ansonsten auch etwas zu schnell gespielt
