[@brooksiefan]

Epic. Hard to believe it was not composed expressly for the organ. The whole piece takes on a nobler character.

[@DLCaster]

It was originally composed for piano. Obviously this work benefits greatly from the the pedal division and the varied tambers of the rest of the organ. I very much like this transcription.

[@Mark_Dyer1]

I used to have a recording of an organ transcription back in the 1970s, recorded on a cassette-tape! I still think the 'Promenade' and 'Great Gate of Kiev' especially lend themselves to the pipe organ.

[@md95065]

@@Mark_Dyer1 There have been quite a few transcriptions of this piece - I remember hearing Arthur Wills playing his version of it back in the 1970's.

[@samrodian919]

Michael Davidson no doubt on the organ at Canterbury cathedral.

[@organbuilder272]

This is an intensely dramatic piece. Each segment trying to present the feeling, the essence of the picture in the gallery. The range of tonalities, not to mention dynamics and pitch, of the organ lends the organ to be a far more impressive instrument to perform this music. From the chicks to the Great Gate, it is so dramatic that a piano can not represent the feeling of the segments. One wonders what the original might be if composed for the organ. Leave it to Tom to present an accurate rendition of the original yet using the full range of the expression of a pipe organ to interpret. This is a really great performance of a monumental piece.

[@MrPeter3011]

yes,its a great interpretation for organ...think maestro MUSSORGSKY will smile to this....simply excellent organist...and the GREAT GATES are overwhelming.....

[@MXDelfos]

This is the work of a true genius. You are the Liszt of these days. Both of you guys should be proud; you are giving us a very generous amount of pleasure. Thank you very much!

[@jockmoron]

One of my very favourite pieces of classical music, Mussorgsky composed something of such profound originality that seems at times to totally transcended the ability of the piano to capture it; the organ, under Mr Scott's musical prowess, does manage this so much better. How often do you hear the church organ bring such colour, grandeur and mystery? And this is "just" another English church organ. Amazing!! I should add what a truly stunning organ, it's tonal qualities seem to meld the British tradition with something of a continental purity - the acoustics of the church and the perfect recording just add more qualities. - which Jonathon Scott uses to its full majesty.

[@joselares9031]

Stunning performer...¡¡¡ YEAH...

[@francovisser8873]

A Maestro without equal. I have said it already - this is the UKs André Isoir and even better. Jonathan, a grand concert organist and concert pianist along with his brother Tom. You are truly gifted. Bless you both and keep on playing for many more years please!

I have heart this music for the first one on organ played by the great master Jean Guillou ( past away 2019) It was amazing to hear. I met this master at Rotterdam on the"de Doelen organ" on his concert. And now, you are the master on this organ. Wow. Well done. Great work and amazing again.

[@BarneySaysHi]

Wow, this brought tears to my eyes! Pictures at an Exhibition on a fantastic sounding church organ. When "The Hut on Hen's Legs (Baba-Yaga)" started to be played I cranked up the volume. Along with "The Great Gate of Kiev" these sound so powerful!

[@epincion]

He plays it (with Tom's animation) on the very big Corna organ at Bergamo Cathedral. He played it at same concert as the Vivaldi 4 Seasons which he did upload to this channel but Pictures at an Exhibition is on the Festival Organistico Internazionale - Bergamo website and its fantastic.

[@BigStew007]

That organ sounds fantastic.

[@QHarefield]

Absolutely marvellous! I was first introduced to this splendid piece by the late Keith Emerson, whose version with ELP I still love and treasure. Since then, I have acquired the version for piano (as it was originally written), Ravel's orchestral version - and Tomita's exotic but wonderful version - each one excellent. Now I have this brilliant rendition. Bravo, Jonathan - (is there anything this gifted man can't play?!) !

[@iankemp1131]

"Pictures" must be the most transcribed piece in classical music - many and varied orchestral arrangements, brass band, ELP, etc. This is worthy to stand with any of them and even has some unique effects; Gnomus sounds particularly eerie and there is a lightness of touch in Tuileries and the Unhatched Chicks. One other fascinating possibility - how about an alternative transcription for organ and piano duet to preserve some of Mussorgsky's unusual pianistic effects, particularly in the last 2 movements, though this transcription already captures some of them more than many orchestral versions including Ravel's classic one.

I started playing this piece on piano in high school after a friend got a copy from the university. At the time were were looking for piano versions of orchestral works such as this, Beethoven's Symphony #5 for four hands, Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps for four hands, all the usual suspects. Those were good times, over 50 years ago now.

I’ve been listening to this amazing performance, and trying to nail down what is the main reason I love your playing so much. Amazing technique? Well, yeah . 😂 Absolute mastery of style through an entire long piece? Yup. 👍 But for me, it’s your use of registration. So appropriate and at the same time, imaginative. Using the resources of the instrument so well. And that’s what totally draws me in as you play. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for sharing your extraordinary gifts with us!

[@terryr.sublimeorganmusic]

I too am captivated by Jonathan's playing. Though familiar with these orchestral pieces, I wouldn't choose to listen to them on a regular basis. Jonathan's transcriptions and playing, however, give them a new vitality and I listen with renewed interest. Perhaps it's the one person/one instrument being the entire orchestra that overwhelms me. Whatever the reason, keep writing and playing, I'll be listening and enjoying.

[@alecrobinson7124]

It's the best kind of adaptation - it's not trying to slap an orchestral piece onto an organ, it's turning Pictures At An Exhibition into an organ piece

My music teacher in high school thoroughly recommended listening to Pictures at an Exhibition. She told us all once. I didn't do it. She told us all once more. I did it this time. By my second listen, it was an old friend. When i listened to A Momentary Lapse of Reason by Pink Floyd in 2006 for the second time, the feeling of musical familiarity was similar. Real old lump in my throat. The majesty with which you play this whole piece is eye watering. To quote Blackadder "Oh and PS. Don't let him ever...stop."

[@JRaymondT]

Technique is fine, but what makes the Scott brothers transcriptions so great is that (here Jonathan as soloist) really performs the music, rather than just 'make it through' a difficult transcription. This allow us listeners to enjoy the composer's intent, and not just listen to an organist. I suspect a lot goes into what transcription will work with what organ too, as the variety of 1.) acoustics, 2.) combination action and 3.) stop lists available to the performer are so varied.

Stunning performance, Jonathan. True to Mussorgsky's original concept. Impressive transcription. A thought, - in the soft passages the action noise is quite dominant. Is there no way they could put muffler boards over the primaries to cut down on the noise. This is a splended organ. It is a shame to have action sounds interfere with the beautiful soft strings. thanks for your efforts during the era of 19

Fans, try listening to this while doing something other than watching him play. It is obviously not an orchestra playing this but it isn't that far off either. Fabulous transcription so well registered. The expressions of each of the pictures is the same as though this were played by a full orchestra conducted by Celibidache. Fantastic performance. Jonathan is the successor to Edwin Lamare - a mantle he can wear with pride. How well the English organ builders knew the importance of versatility in the design and tonal structure of their organs. Let us hope that in renovation, current builders will not alter those organs and steal away with the pipes as has been done in far too many churches as a result of the resurgence of the baroque fad.

[@johnnyjames7139]

I agree with your comment about Edwin Lamare and Jonathan.

[@edifyguy]

The organ was always meant to be a simulation of the tonal colors, though not the exact sounds, of a complete orchestra. In the silent film era, theaters installed magnificent organs for this purpose, as it saved them money in the long run-until movies suddenly had their own sound and the organs were largely disused. At any rate, a magnificent instrument expressing the piece far better than the piano ever could.

[@cliveso]

Please take your transcription to St Eustache in Paris - I'd love to see how it compares with Jean Guillou's transcription!

[@jgdmlw]

[@mikecook7530]

I think I've been living under a rock. How did I not know about Albion Church in Ashton Underpants? (sic) It's only ten minutes up the road for gawd's sake! Now that I look it up on Google maps of course I recognise it and realise that I've driven past it plenty of times. But it does then raise a question: This church is in an urban environment, adjacent to a busy four lane road and is bounded on all sides by local roads. So how did the brothers Scott get such a decent recording in the first place without any sign of traffic noise creeping in on the quieter passages? Kudos. As for the piece: well you can't beat a bit of Mussorgsky eh? If I remember rightly, ol' Modest wrote all of his work for piano and it was later orchestrated by his good buddy Rimsky-Korsakov. Although I'm sure that the worldwide Hive Mind will set me straight if I've got that wrong. Fitting then that we see a Mancunian performing with such mastery at a Tameside (Greater Manchester) venue on very different set of keyboards. The last time I saw this piece live it was being performed by the Bekova Sisters piano trio at Tatton Hall in Cheshire, but that was last millennium. I'd give my eye teeth to have been present at this recording. Maybe once the world gets back on an even keel there's the chance we'll get to see this performed by Mr Scott at somewhere like the Bridgewater Hall. In the meantime I need to listen to this again through a decent sound system at home. Bliss...

Me, 35 minutes ago: "Please let there be a Scott Brothers Duo video of this for organ...PLEASE let there be a Scott Brothers Duo video of this this for organ... OH THANK GOD!" Side note: If I ever get married, I think "The Great Gate of Kyiv" would make an excellent recessional!

[@paulbrower4265]

Originally for solo piano (the genuine version) , Pictures at an Exhibition has tempted many to transcribe it for numerous ensembles. I'm not sure that it would come off well on a string quartet... but I was thinking of a Handel-like transcription for chamber organ and baroque orchestra. Promenades would be played as solo organ, but the organ would go into the background in other sections except of course the Great Gate. That would be anachronistic in the extreme, but so what?

[@edifyguy]

I think you have a good idea, but Camille Saint-Saens' Organ Concerto is the model that would fit it better. This would be very fun.

You could not have made a more important statement. People should remember that Mozart did not call the Pipe Organ - "The King of instruments" for nothing.
