[@ErikSimmonsOrgan]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it - I don't do very many of "the standards" because they've been recorded so, so many times. But there are a few on my channel. 😉

[@elisebaas7335]

@@ErikSimmonsOrgan I've sent you an invitation on LinkedIn, so I can send you some more sheet music written by my father. 🙂

Ah, yes - I saw that before I saw this. I'm looking forward to seeing his other compositions!

Wunderbar interpretiert, ich spiele es selbst sehr gerne!

[@FredMellink55]

Hi Erik, I don’t really agree about standards. This music piece is very well-known, popular. But the way you play it, the way you maken your stops combination, take the voice of the melody, is what makes it unique. Sometimes I hear other famous music from e.g. Guilmant with terrible registration and mechanic playing, while the same music played by e.g. Ben van Oosten is so much nicer and “unique. Nice example: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noSkdHRni6unq5I

[@ErikSimmonsOrgan]

Thanks, Fred. Yes, I agree that registration and interpretation is important. For music before Bach, so is the tuning and voicing of the organ, but somehow Bach sounds good on almost any organ if someone plays it sensitively and not mechanically. This post is an example of "modern Bach", but I think it works well in its own way.

Гениальный Иоганн Себастьян Бах, опередивший свое время.

[@ErikSimmonsOrgan]

Он опередил свое время. Но в конце жизни его музыку считали «старой» и вышедшей из моды. Сегодня это трудно понять.

What is the source of the picture? It's beautiful.

Almost all of the images in my posts are from Unsplash (www.unsplash.com), which has images that are free to use. I don't recall the specific location in that photo, but it did strike me as beautiful as well. A few of the other photos are my own.
