So it’s an Austin. They’re an old reliable builder. I played there once about 40 years ago for a choir on tour. Their organist was from Westminster Choir a school and had to grit his teeth to get thru each Sunday. They had a 29 tank Wicks, put in as a “temporary” fix till they raised the money to get a real instrument. Those ranks were voiced absolutely raucous, and with extremely high wind pressures. The first thing he did was have the service company remove all Principals from the crescendo pedal and SFZ! So glad they finally got something befitting the space.
2:18 I notice God Save The King (or here, 'America') butting in here, including your coda! I adore that part especially. What a glorious performance, well done!
BRAVO you really know how to bring the best of this magnificent instrument to the people Thank you for sharing with the world. May you and all people who compose, play and sing the music of love and respect to GOD Our Creator know how much HE is pleased and blesses you and your talents 100x100! For lo....I....will be with you even unto the end of the world (time). Pax+
Oh, lieber Paul. Was für ein Ohrenschmaus. Das ist die Musik, die mir besonders gefällt. Danke für eine weitere große Musik auf der Orgel. Danke für Deine Arbeit! Ich Grüße dich ganz lieb und herzlich aus Görlitz. Bis später.😢
This organ is absolutely heavenly in sound. The brilliance of the pipes makes this Widor piece so magnificent. The Organist, bravo master at his playing sir. Much brilliance. I enjoyed your brilliant and magnificent performance. Bravo, Bravo
WONDERFUL! I am glad that the tubas didn't go out of tune while you were there. My organ teacher (Dr. Lawrence P Schreiber) commissioned Austin to build this organ in the English/French style. Very much different from when designed the organ in National City Christian. He also wrote a fanfare for the Trompette En Chamade in 2013.
Beautiful instrument! Out in Maryland is Church of the Redeemer, great instrument manufactured by Lively Fulcher. Highly recommend the side quest if you have time!
Bravo, Paul! I attended one of the opening concerts for this organ, and there was considerable talk at the time about Austin creating a romantic, "symphonic" instrument, closer to their work in the 1930s than anything they had done recently. However, I was disappointed, and the dead room is certainly a big part of the problem. It just seemed "ordinary", and not very warm. A fine fanfare, Dear Paul! 😁🐧
The organ's initial design was to be a modern symphonic/romantic instrument. Lon Schreiber originally wanted to have Schoenstein to build an entirely symphonic organ based off of the large Kimball organs such as Saint John's Cathedral in Denver Colorado. Then, Austin came along with proposition of a larger organ with more "variety" such as two tubas (Tuba Major, Tuba Sonora), and using many extensions from the pedal to create a green division (Resonance Division). It is better to hear the organ during Sunday service rather than a recital, because for some reason organists seem to be afraid of this instrument while it is little tamer than Lon's other creation at National City Christian. Also, Austin did revoice the instrument a few times after it was dedicated so it should sound warmer in the building. (Unless the temperature wreaks havoc on organ)
I cannot stop listening to this piece as I find it totally thrilling.Would go very well as processional music! Well done Paul. You are an amazing organist. Keep up the good work and thank you for your videos.
… das letzte Mal vor der Sommerpause ist Chor… 🙁😃 Allen viel Freude beim zuhören, ich werde mal wieder später hören, aber sicherlich nicht weniger begeistert sein🐧🐧👍🏻🐧🐧
Interesting to note one or two comments about 'deadness' and 'underwhelming' and then about recital v Sunday Service. Yes. Perhaps we might say there is 'something missing' when we highlight or perform en chamade. Nothing to do with the organist or composition ( as you wonderfully show!). It's more like the wet v dry acoustic on Hauptwerk and an often hollow and unfortunate bombarde / chamade recipe which can temper the show. Perhaps I'm too picky. I am a real fan of the full range of reeds on offer worldwide.
Amazing!!! I’m here wiping away a few tears for how awesome the sound and performance was ❤️ I’ve been wondering watching 2 pieces tonight, does your iPad listen to where you are in the sound, just it just keep up with the timing, or do you do a head movement that advanced the sheet music?
Thanks Paul - Sure its a nice & very big organ but for example compared to that magnificent 1868 Henry Erben organ at Old St Patricks in NY city the sound of this huge 118 rank organ in that space is underwhelming and as other commentator below has written it sounds 'ordinary' and not special. Your composition and your playing are superb..
What a beautiful en chamade; loud, bright, and shiney. Thank you for this performance, Paul.
Goosebumps from the top of my head right down to the soles of my feet!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤

Fabulous piece of music Paul. Is there anywhere I can get a downloadable version please?
Oh goody. 118 ranks of penguins are awaiting to march in royal fanfares.

Allen viel Freude beim zuhören, ich werde mal wieder später hören, aber sicherlich nicht weniger begeistert sein🐧🐧👍🏻🐧🐧

Paul do you know how many pipes there are?
Where is this organ?
Thanks Paul - Sure its a nice & very big organ but for example compared to that magnificent 1868 Henry Erben organ at Old St Patricks in NY city the sound of this huge 118 rank organ in that space is underwhelming and as other commentator below has written it sounds 'ordinary' and not special.

Unfortunately the acoustics in the room are a bit dry. That doesn't help the sound of the organ, but the organ is pretty darn good.
Ah yes, the only good thing about being in DC! Seeing those wonderful organs! I definitely don’t want to see corrupt politicians when I’m there!
Air Raid!
Sounds like: Texas our Texas
Sounds like someone is playing a trumpet besides the organ 😂👌
