[@bobbyhendley3084]

Caroline is nothing less than a pure saint!

[@mattleach958]

Thank you Richard and Caroline. I am so proud of you. You changed my life. I'm an organist now, thanks to your inspiration. Best Quote from Caroline for the KZbin 100k award: "And look! It's so shiny!"

[@annethompson791]

Congratulations, Richard. What a milestone, and very well deserved! Let’s go for 200k. I subscribe to things I enjoy, but none yield blessings like your channel. Looking forward to hearing more of your beautiful music.

[@seanpeare-M0WSP]

Congratulations Richard and Caroline for bringing to us Beauty In Sound. Thank you also for your inspiration on playing the organ and making it fun.

[@PeterAlmenar]

It’s absolutely amazing and timely that you happened to start in 2019, just before the pandemic. Divine inspiration!

[@martinstringer6923]

So so deserved Richard thankyou for all you give Caroline too. The blessing of God on your lives is blessing others world wide. The journey is accelerating!

[@JaneDoe-ci3gj]

What a lovely video Richard, a huge thank you from one of your subscribers!🙏 So very well deserved!😊💯🌷 You play beautifully and do so much for us and this channel! Lovely too see your journey and Caroline right there with you. Caroline always there to look things up, organize and sometimes sing beautifully!😊 So many happy memories I remember one of the first sundays I tuned in, you in a red and white checked shirt and the cats! I also remember when you and Caroline announced Caroline was pregnant with Hugo. A lot of laughter and community through the years! All the best to you Richard and to Caroline, Hugo, Charlotte, Bobby and Nala! from Sweden❤🇸🇪 p.s sorry I haven't been able to be there on sundays for a while, my mums illness is taking all my time!

[@marthaguedes8990]

Congratulations, Richard! It is a privilege to hear you marvellously playing an instrument that, throughout my life, has never been as constant as it has been now. Thank you for this. Here in Brazil, so far away, I have been with you, Caroline, Hugo and now Charlotte Cecilia as if we were in the same room, where also Nola and Bobbie bring us joy. Thank you for bringing me back the beautiful hymns I heard in childhood, for the opportunity of listening to excellent music! 🎉❤❤❤

[@BrooksLehnig]

Richard and Caroline, very hearty congratulations for a well-deserved recognition and milestone!! Can’t wait for future of BIS!

[@carmenfoster6912]

Richard we are celebrating with you and your family! You are very well deserving of this and more!😊

[@joscallinet6260]

Where would we be without Hugo and Charlotte? Thank you, Caroline and Richard, for all you have done and are doing on your superb made-for-this-age (and all the ages) KZbin channel!

[@kelvinsmallwood6315]

Congratulations Richard & all the best for the future for your channel, family & new ideas.

[@mervwhitney7229]

Thanks Richard, An interesting story. I am pleased I found you and look forward to watching your continued progress with BIS.

[@martym61]

[@BristolVRchap]

Congratulations, Richard! What a journey it's been so far and I've enjoyed watching it 😎🥳

[@carolynclark1724]

Wonderful achievement Richard! As busy as my Sundays are as a church pianist, I always take the time for VC because I learn so much and enjoy your program.

[@magesterium2485]

Tremendous this wonderful news ! U have been a inspiration to many Organists and music lovers Richard & Caroline. As u said 2020 was the worst year when we were all in lockdown from the pandemic. And for first time many places of worship were closed and we were not able to do our jobs as organists. The armchair experience is wonderful as well as a educational if u are a player. So thank u for all u are doing to keep organ music alive .

[@WilliamHall-k9e]

Wonderful! Congratulations!

[@drewk3402]

Congratulations, Richard and Caroline! Your program has been such a joy to watch. Although I’m not an organist nor do I play any other instrument, I have always loved organ music and traditional hymns. Thank you for all that you do to bring beautiful music into the lives of so many people. Here’s to the next 100,000 subscribers and the next 100,000 after that as the world of music lovers finds a path to your channel.

[@Todd1356]

I’m so glad you reached this milestone! The award is well deserved.

[@bjoeljones]

Well Done and Congratulations again on attaining 100K subscribers, Richard.🎉🎉 The silver plaque looks quite nice. Now, to start working on the next 100K to go for the Gold. Slàinte Mhath🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Eckyredtheunready]

Congratulations, a very well deserved milestone.

[@richardsedding8444]

Congratulations Richard awesome and richly deserved!!

[@JohanOstlund187]

Congratulations Richard and Caroline! you guys deserve it so much! I just realized that my musical journey is pretty closely connected to yours. My taste in music is not even on the same planet as it was 3-4 years ago, largely thanks to BiS... and helium... and an april fools joke, but that is a completely different story :-) . Anyways, BiS plays a big part in my life these days and gives me the energy to keep going, thank you so much!

[@jerrymartin79]

Congratulations!!! We are all so thankful you have taken up this incredible challenge and are so proud of all you have accomplished. Really looking forward to seeing what you dream up next!!! ❤

[@margotbryan1554]

You are all those things Richard! As well as funny, entertaining, loving parent and husband! Thank you for the music and CONGRATULATIONS!

[@margotbryan1554]

How could I forget the cat!🙀

[@Dogsnark]

You deserve a LOT more subscribers, especially considering how many other far less deserving KZbinrs have. Anyway, congratulations! You definitely deserve reaching this milestone.

[@davewri2734]

I will be here every Sunday afternoon. Thank you for bringing this to all of us.

[@diannemills5594]

[@janemazzola4454]

CONGRATULATIONS!!! THANK YOU, Richard & Caroline, for sharing your musical talents AND your own life journeys w/us, your growing global KZbin audience/family! May we continue to do our part through our support of you & yours. Blessings!

[@TSB12556]

Good on ya Richard! Blessings from Wisconsin, USA

[@donalddodson7365]

Richard and Caroline, I wish I could send you more, but I am thrilled for your accomplishment! It is no surprise to me. In the 3 or 4 months I have been listening, you awaken great memories of listening to wonderful organists at churches and the University of Redlands (California) in the late 1960's. I am blessed to worship at a church, now, that is committed to excellent pipe organ worship, as well as contemporary worship. Blessings to you all.

[@caroline.balfour]

Thank you so much Donald. We’re glad that you found us!

[@beautyinsound]

Wow - Thank you so much Donald!! This is incredibly kind of you :)

[@gminor680]

Huge congratulations on this achievement Richard and all. Although other commitments mean I haven't been able to follow every moment note-by-note, I have looked in as often and regularly as I could - even the 100k video was watched a half hour behind! However, it has been a wonderful journey you have taken (and I continue to be honoured and humbled to have made a little contribution in the form of the "lollipop" used again in this video) and I look forward to many more hours of pleasure watching the channel. God bless you in all you do.

[@davidfletcher8558]

It's a wall plaque !!!!!! - Great work my friend and hats off to you for having the courage of your convictions. You should be extremely proud of this wonderful achievement. I'm very excited to see and hear your unique musical community go from strength to strength. Sincere congratulations and very best wishes for the future.

[@James1623]

This is amazing work Richard 😮

[@bfordca]

Well deserved Richard I’ve been one of your followers since the beginning Let’s aim for 1 million subscribers!!!! I hope to meet you guys in person when I visit England later this year

[@miriamcarpinetti5140]

Bravo ! 👏 ❤

[@renaudbriancon9818]

Thank you Richard for sharing this amazing moment. Thank you for your great music, your humility (try to continue he he ), and your humour ! (although as a French guy in Indonesia, it's a challenge for me to follow your "funny" accent and Caroline's 😅 You inspire me as a 6-month old organ player beginner, tough beans ! (I hope it's real silver !!)

[@JamesMossop1996]

Huge congratulations to you Richard! I've learnt so much from watching you play, and I've put some of what I've learnt in my own Organ playing. Keep up the amazing work, and looking forward to hopefully meeting you in the flesh! Here's to the next 100,000! 😊🎉

[@Tim.Weaver]

😻Congratulations!😻

[@beautyinsound]

Many thanks Tim!

[@fnscooter]

BIS has become my weekly dose of organ music. My wife and I moved to a different city during the pandemic, and our new church doesn't have a pipe organ. I miss hearing organ music in-person very much, and BIS is the next best thing.

[@JamesSmith-qu4yf]

I started playing the organ again about a year ago after a more than 15 year hiatus (I am primarily a pianist). Your channel has helped me rediscover this beautiful instrument.

[@markswintonorganist8227]

You've worked hard for this - savour it and know that you deserve it!

[@lastlight3974]

👏👏👏

[@gustavo5989]

Congratulations from Santos, SP, BRAZIL.

[@johnhanton1649]

Well done Richard, great work. You realise we tune in hoping to see Caroline , children and cats 😅

[@accousticdecay]

Richard, you are a remarkable man with a remarkable family, having had God's mantle fall on you for the tasks at hand. My only downside is that I am so awfully envious of the organ you have painstakingly designed and set up in your home. It is to die for! I shall see you live as often as I can.

[@jopycatalin2648]

Nice

[@blu4r316]

Now we need just one thing. You have to play a racing sim on the organ (e.g. pedal middle c is the break and d is the accelerator) Congrats on 100k!

[@chet146]

👑

[@TimvanElderen]

All I can say is just: wow! Thank you for all the amazing content on your channel. Your work is truly inspiring for many organists: both young ones and older ones. It was your channel that inspired me to switch to the organ, and I can say with certainty that that was one of the best decisions of my life. So an amazing thankyou to you, but also Caroline and all the guest recitalists. Not just some of the music on this channel is a benchmark performance; it all is. When I decide to learn a new piece of music I first check to see if you have a recording of it on your channel, for I know beforehand it is the best on youtube. I hope to be able to join every VC live from now on and wish everyone at BiS the best, including Hugo and Charlotte. I look forward to maybe being able to meetyou in person (In Romsey perhaps?) and wish you the best on your future endeavours on BiS. Kind regards, Tim van Elderen

[@mattnbin]

You forgot to thank your wonderful wife!!!!!!

[@Chuck-Pat]

Not quite, “Welldone Good & Faithful Servant “ but surely a McVeigh family feat…..

[@gregturner2363]

What is the name of the organ music that plays at the very beginning of the video? TIA

[@beautyinsound]

Carillon-Sortie by Mullet

[@gregturner2363]

@@beautyinsound Thanks Richard !!

[@mothball5425]

You are absolutely amazing, love your videos so much. I'd love it if you could do some collaboration to support the Boardwalk organs project in Atlantic City, who are painstakingly restoring the world's largest organ 🙏

[@beautyinsound]

I’d love that too!
