[@hymnistic]

Thank you so much!

Merci beaucoup. I am learning to sightread Bach Chorales (only 2 voices). I use the piano function to learn and then always switch to the organ. This was made for the organ, Your playing is beautiful.

[@hymnistic]

Thank you so much! Keep on playing, no matter what

[@paulchapman112]

Thank you!

[@james.flores]

Great performance! I’m deciding on another Bach to learn and this might be it ❤

[@hymnistic]

Thanks! Hope you have fun learning, great piece!

[@marcelobrunorodrigues7630]

Really nice performance and sound resolution! R. D. Darrell wrote that the fugue's subject is essentially identical to the one of Bach's cantata 21.

[@hymnistic]

Thank you! Yes, this is the major-key version of that fugue subject. I love singing Bach cantatas, done many but not BWV 21.

[@marcelobrunorodrigues7630]

@@hymnistic And which is your voice for singing? Mine is deep bass.

[@StoreeDenson]

[@hymnistic]

Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy learning!

Such wonderful music! Anyway. I would like to request Parry's "I was Glad", Handel's "Zadok the Priest", and Walton's "Crown Imperial". Thanks a lot.

[@hymnistic]

EXCELLENT! What organ have you chosen here to sound-play? It sounds like a German tracker in one those lovely Martin Luther Re-do churches of the 17th century. Please play the Wanamaker organ next, and the Organ at Kings College Chapel. Both have a distinctive sound. Also, ……since you’re so flawless, why not play this piece on a proper harpsichord ….just for fun….humor us. Not a virtual harpsichord, but a real one. You’re very good, really good. ……ok, the peddle harpsichord……….lol I do hope you have a nice cozy Church Job with a nice old Austin. Can you play some hymns too, or is that asking to much? There are so many lovely old hymns in the 1940 Episcopal Hymnal. Let’s hear your improvisational skills. Hymns are always a fun way to learn seamless improvisation, wouldn’t you agree?

[@hymnistic]

Thanks! The organ I used is in the description. Lol, thanks for planning my organ tour! Yes, I love hymns!
