YES 🧭 - - four cardinal directions and , a single GOETHE . 4:24 THANK YOU .
That was a great refresher on the bcp daily office, thanks! I’m a Roman Catholic but have been praying morning and evening prayer from the 1662 bcp on and off for the past year after trying the Liturgy of the Hours and really disliking the psalm translation amongst other things. Thanks again
Beautiful
Lovely!
This is amazing, can you post just the Dawn call to prayer recording please
Thank you for your comment and the request. I mean to post the recording of the dawn call to prayer within the next few days, together with the mid-afternoon and sunset calls to prayer. Please keep an eye out for these.
The "Requiem" for a modernist catholic altar would be hip hop music.
Yes, of course, however, Modernist altars are more likely to inspire a Requiem for the church than on their own account. Furthermore, considering the customary ignorance of the Modernists when it comes to the Latin tongue and traditional liturgy, it seems to me highly doubtful that they know the meaning of the word "Requiem" and, if they did, that they would be visited by any desire artistically to exert themselves.
Vielen lieben Dank, sehr schön gelesen.
Very nice, Izak. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful church, beautiful music
I loved the opening to Once in royal davids city!😃😃😍😍🎹🎶🎵🎼
❣️
I love this song. I have a brother named Danny.
The hand technique can be improved on. For melodic motions, the forearm should be rotated as though turning a key.
Noted with thanks.
@@rohancrafford8050 You're welcome!

Zu glauben, dass ich eine solche Kreativität und Schönheit inspiriert habe, ist ein zu freundlicher Austausch.
Baie mooi.
Dankie, Rohan.
Baie mooi
It was an excellent opportunity to work with you Rohan. Hopefully one of many more to come.
Stunningly beautiful, my friend.
I vividly remember this day, and most importantly, I remember being engulfed by the music and the beauty of the church as you played! I remember this day being a particularly fun day filled with lots of laughter: from your lively demonstration of how one actually plays the organ (and my utter shock at how complex it is) to me constantly saying "Organ" instead of "Orgel" in German. This was one of those days that were especially good for the soul. As you already know, my knowledge of music is rather superficial, and you exposed me to a whole new world; so, firstly, my apologies for not quite understanding the intricacies of the Anglican choral tradition; however, I can assure you that I appreciate your talent - I am in perpetual awe of your skills! It was an honour hearing you play then and an even greater one to revisit this moment and discover what inspired it! The greatest honour is ever having crossed paths with you in this lifetime and experiencing you. I am very grateful for your friendship! Thank you so much for this dedication! I am so humbled.
Liebe Karabo, Erstens danke ich dir vom ganzen Herzen fuer den Tag, den wir zusammen verbringen duerften und der diese Musikalische Erinnerung, sowie viele weitere Erinnerungen hervorgebracht hat und, zweitens, fuer die segensreiche Freundschaft, die fuer diese Widmung Voraussetzung ist. Die anglikanische Chortradition ist nebensaechlich, denn du verstehst das Herz, aus dem dies alles stammt, und das ist das Wichtige. Nochmal, vielen herzlichen Dank.
Greatly humbled Rohan. An excellent piece, thank you very much. It's always a great pleasure working with you. God bless you abundantly.
Thank you kindly, Herr Dr. I am most delighted to have been able to craft something which is pleasing to you.

Thank you Rohan
It is well in my soul ♥️ Whilst this rendition is less dense in texture to how I prefer it the simplicity is refreshing and offers much affirmation that it is well, through times of chaos.
Sehr schön!
