superba esecuzione!! Grande J. S. Bach e grande l'organista che ha suonato questa meravigliosa musica.

Thank you for this remarkable tribute to Johann Sebastian Bach. His chorale-based compositions are among his most inspired works, and Dr. Mathias plays these examples of Bach's art with extraordinary sensitivity. As usual, Prof. Howard's commentary is illuminating. One can hope that wherever Bach may be in the heavenly spheres, he can hear this tribute to his genius, played on one of the great organs of the world.

There's nothing like excellence! Kudos on your beautiful playing, Brian!

Wonderful program -- just a minor point -- I discovered a typo on your KZbin description. It's Brian Mathias, not "Brain" Mathias -- that was written after the Concert Date. From an intellectual and humour point of view, this may be considered funny or interesting, but accuracy is important, and so I bring it to your attention, if you are reading this.
