Bravo! Excellent transcription and execution. It sounds so different and mysterious compared with the original piano version.

One of my favourite piano pieces on organ, before I clicked I was a bit skeptical - but it is amazing how good it sounds on the organ, too... (Also thanks to your master level playing of course.) Mendelssohn was of course a great J.S. Bach lover, so perhaps this is part of the reason...?

fantastic and very different of the piano version. It seems very physical to play that

What was your favourite variation to play and why ?

Thank you for your comment! Well, I think the whole piece was fun to play - it's hard to choose one favourite variation...😉
