87: Vom Himmel Hoch

Thanks to your suggestions. I hadn't really understood about reverb. I've just left the 'Cathedral' setting as it was after installation. I've obviously got more things to find out about the organ.

A wonderful performance. Well played and, as someone who has followed you from day one, the improvement in your playing is so evident. I didn't particularly like the reeds either - possibly just use the Swell 8 reed rather than the full reed chorus. Then the 16 pedal reed has more impact. Also the reverb has muddied things especially the manual reeds. But still really well done. I'm going to play that at Christmas too.

Very nice. I agree with the other comment that maybe there’s a bit too much reverb on the recording. Did you use the Great Trumpet as well Swell? That might be a bit too much. I find that with my Wyvern sometimes. (I’ve spent a long time adjusting the balance on my organ of each stop to get it to what I think is right - although I’m sure I adjust things and adjust them back again later!) It’s a great piece though and I have a whole book of Pachelbel which I use quite a bit.

That's a good work! Are there suggestions for tempo and registration?
