And Can it Be? - Organ and Piano duet | Scott Fredericks and Christian Keller

[@johnhaan986]

Absolutely incredible! Just so impressive! A large, powerful 4 manual pipe organ and a grand piano together playing a very beautiful hymn! How in the world can a person think an electric keyboard and a guitar is better? Y’all, we just had us some church!

LOVE THIS COMMENT! 200% right!

Our church like so many has moved from choir to praise music. While I understand that young people need a "fresh" approach to worship as a Baby Boomer I miss the powerful offertories of our youth. This exceptional playing of And Can It Be reminds me of days gone by.

Honestly, as a millennial, I wouldn’t mind having the organ back in churches. At least once in a while. I love the old and the new. Having the full orchestra with the piano and organ as well is incredibly beautiful. I grew up in a musical family. I used to love listening to my grandma and mom play piano together. For a while my mom had an organ and played that as well. Both my grandma and mom played by ear and I’m the one of my generation who inherited the gift from them. I played with my mom a lot. I never had lessons other than a few months of them as a kid. I can only play by ear. Now I’m trying hard to enhance the playing and teaching myself more. I regret it deeply, not taking lessons or pursuing music more. My grandma passed when I was a teenager and my mom passed suddenly a few months ago. I still lived with her and found her unresponsive. It’s been so hard and painful but playing music again has helped.

My grandma was a church pianist and played with the organ every Sunday, I miss the powerful hymns on piano and organ

I'm almost 30 and I'm there with you. I prefer hymns over this new cookie cutter praise music. I go to a bible church and we sing 95% hymns, I wish that he had a pipe organ though.

[@codywheeler9914]

Over the last 7 years of my life, I’ve found a lot of contemporary music to be void of biblical truth. This is actually one of my favorite songs. I grew up on contemporary music. I thought hymns were old and worn out… yet this hymn resonates with me. I don’t really listen to many contemporary songs anymore. I’m at the tailing end of the millennial generation, so I don’t think this is just a generational thing. There has been some evidence that millennials and gen z are actually choosing the more traditional churches over the contemporary. Our congregation is more traditional and has ballooned to 700 members (mostly young families and college students)! As far as the organ goes, I’d love to have one. Our church is in an older building that doesn’t have a pipe organ. I know the music director and I know if he had the choice, we’d have one!

⁠@@julievanderleestoh how I wish I could play by ear. You are so lucky. Enjoy!

[@williamripley3192]

A beautiful hymn that we sang many Sundays when I was much younger!!!

[@josephineives5749]

❤ WOW 😳. THat organist has some amazing foot/action on those pedals!!!!

[@kentuckylady2990]

Beautiful. My church’s music is praise style. Oh how I miss the the old hymns.

[@kirklyons5105]

With just the praise MUSIC one is receiving Diluted, Shallow truth, not the Sirloin steak Almighty God wants Believers in The LORD Jesus Christ to metabolize.

[@rogergroot6641]

Yes I was raised from 1937 to 1960 singing with a wonderful pipe organ and congregational singing of the old hymns & Psalms,and that is why I am blessed to play the organ in my home several times a week and loved modulating from different keys as I play by ear.And my dad was a gifted organist.I have one of the original hymnals from my church in Michigan,and now live in Tennessee.PRAISE BE TO GOD.

[@julievanderleest]

Wow that was incredible!! I don’t understand why my generation doesn’t enjoy the organ as much anymore. I mean this was just incredible! I love this old hymn and it sounds so majestic with both the piano and the organ together. I’m still in my 30s and have a very hard time finding friends my age enjoy this. I often went to concerts with my mom because she had a love for music just as much. Sadly she passed unexpectedly this year. I feel very alone.

[@georgefieldsjr.640]

Beautifully Played !😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@kathrynclaridge3292]

That just made my soul happy❤❤❤

[@clivesawers8270]

Interesting! I played this on the organ this morning at a good singable pace and boy did they sing!!

[@alanatolstad4824]

I came when I saw the names, because I went to high school with a Scotty Frederick (no s), but I stayed for the music. I'm also Lutheran but have never heard this hymn before. Beautiful.

[@phyllis5256]

Absolute chills from hearing this!! Well done, gentlemen!!

Incredible. Such a pure sound

[@Aivar380]

In my opinion, this piano has a very pleasant sound. I really enjoyed your performance. Something very good for the heart and mind! I'm a Lutheran by faith, John's Lutheran Church in Estonia (one of the Baltic countries).

[@christiankeller_music]

So glad you enjoyed! Greetings from the United States!

[@wierdsmabob]

My late wife's favorite hymn - one of them anyway!

[@SpitzPrincipal4]

= From a fellow musician- Beautiful, Majestic and an appropriate arrangement for such a timeless hymn boys! THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THIS!!!! Soli Deo Gloria indeed! The En Chamade just puts the icing on the cake and the accentuation it deserves! Blessings, Nigel from Duncan, British Columbia, Canada

[@christiankeller_music]

@@SpitzPrincipal4 Thank you for your kind words!

[@johangouws8855]

Fantastic…thank you

[@moyosolusonaike5965]

19.20pm Heavenly, majestic music

[@clivesawers8270]

It’s in my hymnbook in G which does go a bit high (I note the key change here). I’ve now developed introductions to all my hymns that avoid any pauses or rallentandos; it works a dream and no loss of pace; everyone starts singing together. Search The Complete Hymn.

[@denisephillips2337]

Soo uplifting thank you 👏👏

[@alphonsotate2982]

Beautiful😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@Buckaroo543]

The absolute skill to play this massive organ is amazing.

[@margaretwood7135]

Oh yes please. Out with the repetitive praise songs, guitars, bring beautiful music and beautiful words back into our churches.

[@virginiacase8620]

That was beautiful!

[@hannahy8209]

Praise ye the Lord. ❤

[@thomas-xj1hs]

Excellent; thanks

[@thomas-xj1hs]

You started in key of F, which is unusual. I cannot find music for key of F, only the usual G. Any advice? Thanks

[@christiankeller_music]

@@thomas-xj1hs not sure. I know Sam Metzger has it in F in one of his books. Also Noel Rawsthorne books have reharmonies, usually in multiple different keys to accommodate to different types of hymnals. Under “Sagina,” there may be one in F

[@thomas-xj1hs]

2:04 Wat 'n pragtige kombinasie van pyporrel en klavier. Hierdie melodie is uit die hemel

[@frankearley1404]

The younger generation who write forgettable Christian music noways of course include meaningful words, but rarely have any idea about meaningful "music", which sets this and other older beautiful worship songs worlds apart.

[@rhosfawr]

God's music

[@paulmacdonald1837]

Many churches that have abandoned the hymns of the faith do so thinking they will attract the unchurched but it rarely does. What does happen is that many of us older worshipers feel our Christian Heritage has been taken from us. My church leadership made the arbitrary decision to switch from hymns to praise music and within months our typical Sunday attendance of 700+ dropped to less then 150. Sad.

Both! It’s always a joy playing together

An odd musical combination made possible by electronics. Nothing wrong in that just a little odd.
