Es frecuente que los grandes artistas creen obras cuyo efecto en los demás es muy diferente de lo que ellos dejaron escrito o pintado. El Largo de Haendel es, sin duda, uno de los casos más evidentes: esta música es, principalmente, de un altísimo contenido religioso, para oírla en el interior de un Templo, con muy humilde concentración.... aunque Haendel la dedicara a la sombra de un árbol. Óptima, Mme. Bish, óptima, si no perfecta. La mejor versión que he oído. Gracias
Dieses Musik Stück geht mir immer wieder zu Herzen. Danke
Danke Danke ich kann dieses schöne Musikstück immer wieder hören, es bewegt mein inneres.
Amo tantissimo Diane!
carissima DIANE non ai solo la mente ma suoni col cuore grazie
The best part of my church going days as a child was listening to our organist, playing an organ like this.
이 연주를 통해 내가 분명히 살아있음을 느낄 수 있어서 감사해요.
This is so very beautiful and soothing ✨ 💜✝️
Ich liebe harmonische Orgelmusik gerade bei diesem Musikstück, was ich dabei empfinde im inneren ist grandios. Ja wir sind ein gefühlswesen.
I have this on Cd,being sung by the immortal tenor Enrico Caruso,this is a tear jerker,there are a few high-C's even with Caruso's velvet voice,it still brings tears to my eyes,the beauty of opera,can do that to me,and the organ can duplicate the orchestra,what great gifts,our Heavenly Father gave us.Praise his Holy Righteous name,Amen.
This is beautiful. So quietly slow, and tender. Well played of course by Ms. Bish.
I never heard a better version of Händel, Largo! Diane Bish is an artist among others, but my favorite organist. I wish she would come to Canada (Montreal And Toronto-Ottawa) to give us the pleasure of seing her play so beautifully our organs.
eccezionale artista, grazie per il suo genio musicale
Magnificent, glorious and heavenly
Wonderful women on the organ. ✌✌

Suonata . Se con uno strumento così stupendo perfetto nei suoni nei trombi
Elimina quella precedente siete dei pasticcioni non dico più niente.
E simplismente maravilhoso toca a alma mais insencivel
There may be 117 ranks - but there is one Ms. Bish - and she is the artist and director of musical presentation. Cheers to her and many thanks!
Wonderful! I just noticed thisone. Thank you, Diane Bish for not only making my world more beautiful with your music, but educating me as well, especially about the organ. That 117Rank Ruffatti Organ is marvelous! You must really enjoy playing that great organ. Wish i had known about it while living in Florida! Brava, Diane!
sehr vielen Dank.. Lila muss weinen.
Simon says beautiful music, gorgeous organist.
1 Comic Opera Serses, Xerxes.
2 Ombra Mai Fu (original Italian)
3 Largo from Xerxes
4. Worthy Art Thou (Lord God Almighty.) Choral
When originally composed Haendel wrote this as a secular piece (comic opera) Serses (Xerxes).
Bravo, Ms. Bish...An exceptionally moving rendition of a personal favorite of mine.
I love it!

G.F.Handel Largo from "Xerxes". Diane Bish plays this piece on an organ of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, FL I always enjoyed the organ selections during church services on Sunday.
Beautiful Song From Händel That You Play Diane In The Organ, I love Organ And Classical Music, Congratulations!!!! :-)
Wonderful performance. Do come to the UK please,
Espetacular!
So moveing brillant
Wonderful.
magico Haendel !!!
Wow, this is wonderful!
Beautiful!
Of course she is alive, and so is her playing!
How I wish donate me an organ
muito especial esta linda musica de handel.
Very nice music and player
Love it!,
I do love the Largo...and this time the tempo is slow and majestic and right! I do feel you tend to hurry things...but this is just right!
Händel, einfach nur Geil, das sind eben echte Deutsche Komponisten.
Diane is a classic icon
I didn't know an organ had strings; I thought it was a wind instrument only. Wow!
My name ils Paolo Ruffatti; Mr Giuseppe Ruffatti'son.
Wen I was joung awfully the Ruffatti's firm was broken into three pieces. Mr Giuseppe Ruffatti ,who founded the firm, refused to make american organs as they were designed to "scream" with high pressure air flow (therefore losing many harmonics). the american organ's price then was three times the italian one. It was for this sole reason that the youngest Ruffatti brother, went to america, where i hear he made many celebrated organs.
In my ignorance I didnt know this was from a comic opera.... we had this played at our wedding....
Dla mnie może Pani grać cały czas FANTASTYCZNIE
She's a Texan. They also say "bidness" instead of "business" and, yes, she did use Celeste and you can plainly hear it.
There are a bunch of arrangements of it. I've seen them in a lot of "Favorite Classical Pieces" anthologies.
Although it´s from comic opera I have heard this composition at funerals e.g.of my aunt
Пожалуй, лучшее исполнение..
I love this piece, but am always bemused that it was originally to be sung by the emperor, Xerxes in praise of a tree! (praising its shade (Ombra Mai Fu) and wishing it a long life, free from pests and diseases.
I wonder if Handel ever thought that he may have used his best tune in a less than fitting scenario.

Great comment. Very well said.
If _you_ had just been traipsing through the desert, under the blazing sun, you, too, might feel deeply thankful for the shade provided by a tree: indeed, it could be the difference between life and death. I'll take Handel's judgement over yours.
@YoungOrganist With 117 ranks to choose from, I'm sure she has a Celeste on somewhere in there :)
This rivals van Oosten's performance of Vierne's "Carillon de Westminster" on the Cavaille-Coll at Notre Dame. Carpenter might be the "top gun", but Bish is the Grand Master.
Wat is dit genieten
Greatttttt
@DeDeutschmann
stimmt, sehe ich genau so, aber klingen tut es trotzdem geil, oder etwa nicht?
Holy Art Thou Lord God Almighty!
Mrs. Bish performed a nice romantic piece for organ, but this has nothing to do with Handel! Which composer or organist of the Baroque would have used so many 8' stops???
Correct. An unstylistic and sloppy performance. Registration reflects nothing of the Baroque. She seems to be entirely oblivious of subtle Baroque articulation. Changing of stops makes no sense at awkward places.
This is ponderous, stillted, hasn't been thought through - the tell tale was when she introduced the piece as being from Handel's "comic opera" Xerxes - ermm she should have done her research
Correct. A sloppy, unstylistic legato performance reflecting no Baroque registration or articulation. Tempo is stilted and pedantic ally slow. No evidence of any research into Handel's stylistical playing.
Correct. Stylistically a very poor performance.
yes*
Is there sheet music for piano? I REALLY WANT IT
I think its Xerxes, not X-Xerxes
Is she alive?
Yes.
It's pronounced Zerzes, not Exerxes
Just hope you Americans aren't running away with the idea that this piece of music is American it a'int folks Handel, although German born was a British subject. Sorry.
What does this comment have to do with anything? Most educated musically inclined people know that this is not an American piece. Think we're stupid, eh??
"Exerxes"?? "Handel's Lurgo"?! She can certainly play the organ, but her English leaves something to be desired.
