J. S. Bach: The 17 Leipzig Chorales BWV 651-667 | Bálint Karosi

[@edifyguy]

It is mind-blowing to me that this huge, magnificent sound can be made by 2 guys and a machine which does not use any electrical anything. What have we lost in this electronic era? We gained the ability to make distorted guitar harmonics audible a mile away, and lost art. We gained base urges canonified in sound, and lost our humanity. This organ is God's nature revealed in sounds: grand, powerful and complex, yet remaining gentle, clear and beautiful.

[@bertspeggly4428]

Ever heard a sampled Hauptwerk digital organ? It can bring the exact sound of a fine pipe organ, in a perfect acoustic, right into your own home. So please don't say we have lost something in the electronic era, we have gained a great deal.

[@KaCzMaRiXDee93]

Piękna robota :)

[@bertspeggly4428]

Very nice, one registration comment, the CF in BWV 662 sounds an octave too high to me. What do you think?

[@benoita9476]

Très belle interprétation. Pourquoi n'avez vous pas ajouter la registration choisie ?

[@NJPurling]

Is the organ made as representing a particular period of organ building? It looks like it is post-medieval, but only just.

[@mountainsong100]

Is the instrument on the side balcony? Large organ was in rear balcony...Shake?

[@the_eternal_student]

I can not hear the pedal on "An Wassflüssen Babylon," but thank you for posting.

[@Crosso979]

Thanks for that great rendering ! PS: Why is this organ tuned so high

[@Crosso979]

@Geoff G F that sounds like an F#, same with every note moved a half-tone / diatonic tone higher ?

[@martinvanheusden9832]

What is the dispsition, of this fine musicinstrument???

[@VaggosWho]

Fantastic!!!The only thing i don' t like Bach, is that at his most pieces, in the whole piece is in Minor and finish in Major!

[@christianschwarz1574]

Then you should have a look at this article: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picardy_third

[@christianschwarz1574]

It also has an acoustic reason: Even if a piece ends in a minor key, the major third always predominates in the overtones. So the old masters thought, let's make it major right away.

[@carlosazambujayt]

Very fine performance! But... what is going on with that pedalboard??? Some pedals are assigned to unexpected notes... Why so?

[@zenasm.savage1999]

It's likely a short octave mechanism

[@user-74652]

I don't really see anything wrong. What I do see is that the whole organ is tuned over a semitone higher than modern pitch, and both manuals and the pedalboard are missing the lowest C#, which perhaps could cause confusion.

[@carlosazambujayt]

I think it's an optical illusion caused by the shape of the little pedals corresponding to the black keys.

[@goclevercecchy2173]

Non si sente l'audio

[@tcparker1000]

Brilliant. Am I the only one who thinks he looks like Dr. Who?

[@didierducret285]

Hey if you want you can not ANSWER !!!!!!! I Make you congratulations of your playing but for you public don't care !!!!!!!!!!! It's not very good and it's absolutly not sympathique. You re just a good single player of a greaaaattttt composer JS BACH. Never forget that !!!!!! And without our likes your vidéos and playing can not exist. That's the différents with what you playing and thousand others ones plays. But just one composed Mister and Master BACH Never forget that ! Sometimes it's good to touch the ground.

[@gabrielgarza8283]

sorry but i think the first choral was too fast. i couldnt even recognise it. it sounded computer like.
