After bar 95 I should have played in 6/8 but I keep it in 4/4 which is an error. For that I am sorry. Just keep that in mind. I might do a revised version in the future.
Dear Master, needless to reiterate our sincere appreciation for your performances always so full of pathos and for your hands that master the manuals and your feet that, without footwear, twirl on the pedalboard becoming almost one with it. Listening to this piece, whose minor tone invites deep reflection, I thought that the sacred music handed down to us in past centuries is an extraordinary legacy of culture but also of faith: such exceptional pieces cannot be composed if technical skill is not combined with heart. And I believe that you bring these compositions to life by combining your heart with your skill. This speaks to the soul much more than many often cloying sermons. Thank you very much as always!
Dear Carlo. Thank you once again for your kindness and encouraging words. I really do try to bring as much emotion as I can into the music. I am so glad that it can be heard by others!
So many great things about this performance ; seamless integration of the sections, wonderful sense of space and rhythm , gorgeous registrations …. Thanks for this!
The solo notes at 1.50 are so hauntingly beautiful. The super soft pedal at 6.00 is amazing. I have never heard such a soft pedal. Congratulations Philip.
Wow well done!!!! My goodness you have clearly heard Wolfgang Rubsam play this. Truly a European stylistic approach. Best I’ve heard in YEARS. Registration perfect too.
OMG ! You play this at around the same tempo I play it !! You are letting the music express itself. Some people just race through it as if it were some razzle dazzle tocatta.
Lovely playing of a piece sadly not heard very often these days. I will try and post a recording of it soon using the Rotterdam sample set. I remember learning it for one of my diplomas many years ago.
@@philipaggesenhey Philip, you're welcome! This week I was in Dresden and did an internship in an organ building workshop. I was also allowed to play on the large Kern organ in the Frauenkirche 🤩
Yes after bar 95 I should have played in 6/8 but I keep it in 4/4 which is an error. I don’t know if I should make a new video on it. I have a recording on the prelude in the live-streamed organ recital #2 where I play correctly.
@@philipaggesen Yes, it can especially happen live. The broken chords cause the eye to lose track. I only asked because I know that early music is often available in very different manuscripts, for example Dietrich Buxteude...

Great playing of a fantastic piece!
Much appreciated Markus. I am glad you liked my rendition!!
Bruhns is a “sectionalist” like Buxtehude. The concept that Schweitzer referred to as organ symphonies. You handled this very well.
Thank you!! And you're right!!
Prachtig Phlip!
Thank you for taking the time to write such kind words!
Nice, but at my score there is up to bar 95 an 6/8 - in your video up to 5:30. Does there different scores exist?

smash the metronome. RUBATO make it heart-rending and dramatical. People play this too fast and kill the emotional expression.
The music always have to live without being too restrained to a specific tempo!
