What a wonderful addition to your channel and how nice of Carson to dedicate the piece to you! I immediately ordered a copy for myself.

[@RalphLooij]

Thanks, Leendert! It is indeed very nice (actually the second time he dedicated a piece to me, which is wonderful). Enjoy playing the partita.

I listened to this piece while doing a little walk after a long day sitting on a desk. Very interesting. Some are smooth, others are more difficult to listen to. For me the “simple” parts are the most beautiful! I like the first and second the most.

[@RalphLooij]

Thanks, Rien. Well, they second partita may seem simple but a lot happens in this piece, since it's a retrogade (achterwaartse) canon. Bach, eat your heart out ;)

[@philippelegargean5120]

Surprising sometimes but always interesting. Congratulations to the composer and the performer.

[@RalphLooij]

The unpredictable is what often makes it so interesting to listen to and to play pieces like this.

[@bartk07]

Very interesting contemporary organ music. Analysing rhetorical figures could be challenging. Thanks for introducing. More of that please.

[@RalphLooij]

Thanks for listening! It is indeed more challenging, but also quite rewarding.

[@clafer52]

Very unusual piece on your channel. Interesting, but not appealing for me.

[@RalphLooij]

You're right, in the past I published more contemporary pieces, lately not that much. It often asks some more effort from listeners and players to appreciate it. Thanks for listening.
