Robert Hovencamp, organist
Dobson Organ IV / 105
Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels
Los Angeles, California
Live performance 2013 - Hudba
Que música, fantástico
Just as much as I find the beauty of this piece to be almost unbearable, I am saddened by the sight of all these empty chairs. What cheers me up are 22821 views of this video!
Thank you, Stefan.
In all fairness, the chairs you refer to are the area behind the altar, where no one sits for organ recitals. The recitals at OLA are pretty well attended. Thanks again!

Perfectly paced a d articulated --another of Bach's gifts to humanity
Thank You!
I feel the Holy Spirit falling down on me I feel the presence of the Holy Ghost coming from you whatever mighty God we serve blessing holy name and playing a beautiful Oregon and I feel the anointing of the Holy Spirit
Beautiful rendition!
Many greetings from germany and thanks a lot for this beautiful gift!
Greetings from California and you are most welcome!
This feels like that moment when you just get tired of trying in life and realize how actually life continues in harmony because the universe is perfect so you just relax and think how everything could go wrong if you continue to worry so you just follow the harmony. I'm so grateful for this. Thank you for allowing me experience this masterpiece means a lot to me. I'm lucky to have access to this!
Beautiful.. 🙂 It's unbelievable how few people actually know or even try to listen to this kind of music. They are really missing out on something.
To me this piece brings to mind the biblical text "Forgive them, Father, for they do not know what they do." I know the chorale is not related to that piece, but it invokes that emotion to me
Beautifully serene rendition. Thanks so much!
Thank you for your kindness, Nick.
Beautifully and movingly played. Thank you.
+theremin137 Thank you for your kind words!
I resonate with the comment below, that this piece is almost unbearably (painfully) beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you Calvin!
you play from the heart dear sir and this sound is the finest i have ever heard from any dobson
Thank you Steve!
Manuel Rosales was the tonal director and chief pipe voicer of this organ. Truly beautiful outcome.
Wonderful! What a deep understanding of the soul of J.S. Bach and his natural faith!
Thank you, Peter!
It is so calming and contemplative. The melody has it's heights and downs just like human life. Thank you again for this sublime interpretation!
Thank you most kindly.

Brilliant mate!
Thank you!
Mijns inziens het juiste tempo! ! Klasse.
Modern ogend orgel, maar heldere klank.
Wordt altijd stil van dit stuk.
+Chris Baas Dank U!
Very good registration and tempo, awesome.
Thank you!
Mooie versie!
Dank U!
Truly, truly beautifull, perfect tempo, with this tremolo Oboe (or Hautbois) giving it a romantic character, yet humble and serious.
Thank you for your continued support!
Very much like the LH chords, less choppy here than in another recording, and the melody reed and trem, as someone else commented. Played it this morning, Lent 1, same tempo.
Thanks Elizabeth. I played it twice on Wednesday :-)
This is one of my favorite organ chorales, which I have performed both on the organ and in adaptation for piano. Bach was known for his arrangements (usually improvements) of some of Vivaldi's works. Could this piece be an extension of that practice? More specifically, could the speculation that S. 721 was not originally an organ piece stem from its character as something similar to a stereotypical Vivaldi slow movement with a soprano cantus firmus superimposed?
Where can I find the piano version? Could you send it to me? Michael pianotroubadour@gmail.com. I love this piece!
@@MichaelHoltVideos try Imslp. It has a piano arrangement.
5 dissenters to date. Father forgive them. They know not...
Nice! What do you think of speculation that this was not originally an organ piece?
Thank You. I've not heard that about this particular chorale prelude, but given Bach's penchant for transcribing and rearranging his own material, it would not be surprising.
Perfect tempo rightly according to the text:
Johann Hermann Schein (1586-1630)
Erbarm' Dich mein, o Herre Gott,
Have Thou mercy on me, o Lord God,
nach Deiner großen Barmherzigkeit,
after Thy great lovingkindness,
wasch ab, mach rein mein Misetat.
wash me, make clean my Miseeds.
Ich erkenn mein Sünd und ist mir leid,
I know my Sin and it is sorrow to me
allein ich Dir gesündiget hab;
alone to Thee have I sinned
das ist wider mich stetiglich,
that is against me standing
das Best vor dir mag nicht bestahn,
the Best before Thee can not stand
Du bleibst gerecht, ob Du urteilest mich.
Thou remainest righteous, though Thou condemnest me.

Thanks Russ!
I was listening to another performance of this that was far too rushed, ~5' and mentioned this performance as a standard for appropriate performance timing, not less than six minutes if one takes the text seriously as Bach did and required. How can one be serious about asking God for mercy if one REFUSES to take the TIME, TIME being the only real way one can see a genuine spelling of LOVE!
Iets bekend over dit orgel? Kan aan de opname liggen maar orgel klinkt mij wat elektronisch in de oren. Inderdaad een mooi rustig tempo zoals dit bij dit gebed past. Maar moet niet langzamer als dit uitgevoerd worden, anders staat de zaak stil!
Jan Roeleveld Op deze pagina staat een hoop informatie over het orgel. Ook bouwfoto's ervan. Als je die foto met die steiger ervoor ziet, toch indrukwekkend die schaalgrootte. www.dobsonorgan.com/html/instruments/op75_losangeles.html
Bedankt! Interessant!
Enorm orgel!!
Dauert alles soo lange... orgeldownsyndrom.... spiel doch einfach die musik. ..
