- Dame Gillian Weir performs Julius Reubke's Sonata on the 94th Psalm on the Aeolian-Skinner Organ of the First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston, Massachusetts.
Introduction - Grave
1. O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God to whom vengeance belongeth, show thyself.
2. Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth; render a reward to the proud.
Larghetto - Allegro con fuoco (@ 3:25)
3. Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
6. They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
7. Yet they say, the Lord shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
Adagio ( @10:45)
17. Unless the Lord had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
19. In the multitude of my thoughts within me, thy comforts delight my soul.
Allegro - Allego assai (@ 16:53)
22. But the Lord is my defense, and my God is the rock of my refuge.
23. And He shall bring upon them, their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the Lord our God shall cut them off.
If I were there, I'd be on my feet applauding! It's amazing to think that this young man who died at 24, only produced TWO major works! You are never too young to make your mark on the world. It's not quantity. It's quality!
So much better than the other performances.....Dame Weir never confuses speed with virtuosity
she,s all technique
Porperly: Dame Gillian.
He died a young man as I am, but in that time, he gave the world more than I could ever hope to give.
BEAUTIFUL conclusion, man, beautiful...
Amen!
But how many people actually know and appreciate his work aside from a handful of musical sophisticates like us? It would be nice if “the world” had more gratitude for the gifts that great artists leave behind.
@@erikfreitas7093his music is very „esoteric“ , not for everyone
Thank you, organwizard, for posting this wonderful performance and providing the score.
We would never otherwise have heard this wonderful performance.
Thank you so much for posting the score with this. Fabulous.
If God's wrath and judgement resembles a little what happens here, I'd better make sure I obey all God's commands and love Him with all my heart. Accept Jesus who died for me on the cross to receive forgiveness for all my sins. There is no escape from God's judgement. It comes in speed and power. The only save place.... Is God Himself. Great psalm no. 94...! Great composition of Leubke. Great playing Gillian!
as a non-believer, i can't wait for god to barbeque me in hell
I once told Gillian that she wasn't an organist - she was a magician. Every time she plays a piece you not only think it's the best way to play it. You think it's the ONLY way to play it. That's pure magic. That was nearly 30 years ago but I haven't changed my mind.
Bravo!!! Absolutely stunning particularly when the listener could see the virtuosity of the writing. A tremendous tour de force with excellent interpretation but more importantly, tempo and phrasing. I've heard this become a jumble of noise but it remained clear throughout.
12:17-12:22 reminds of Willan's Passacaglia theme in the 4-staff variation. It's even in the same key! Funny coincidence.
It was recorded in July, 2000.
Like a sunrise
Kim Smith, What is Reubke's second major work. This is the only piece I have heard....from several organists.
His piano sonata.
what's the date of dame weir's performance?
Do people happen to know who the editor is on this edition of music in the video?
Hands up who came here after hearing the Organ accompaniment to Nosferatu ^_^
Apologies, but I think it important to clarify the use of "dame". It's more proper to use the first name of the recipient of this order after the title, or, "Dame Gillian", as opposed to "Dame Weir". However, it is correct to use the recipient's full name, or "Dame Gilian Weir".
