  • NEW CD OUT NOW: ben-maton-musi... Bach composed this wonderful piece for the season of Advent, but it remains one of his most popular works and a favourite for wedding services and funerals.
    The hymn tune melody, which appears at 45 seconds (played by an oboe stop), is cleverly interweaved by Bach around the famous opening theme. A gentle pedal bass line accompanies.
    My website www.benmatonmusic.co.uk, I am a freelance organist for weddings and funeral services in and around Salisbury, UK.

    I understand that J.S.Bach for you as organist very attractive is. And you play Bach very well. But I like also English composers.I hope you will play them and do nt forget Ben Maton: also an English composer.!thanks Ben . From Amstelveen/Holland.

    Very nice articulation. And the organ has a nice clean sound, more than adequate for this particular piece.

    Perfectly played! Such a nice sounding organ! Perhaps you could give a tour of the mechanics of the organ like the pipe chamber or blower room. Thanks for another great performance!

      That was beautiful organ playing. He filmed the whole thing himself.
      The window is lovely. It was only a few seconds. Maybe next time he’ll make sure to feature the door to the toilets or something. So it’s not so corny.

      It is mandatory. If he didn't do it, it would be like a museum video without the zoom on the art lol
