Hearing that opening made me remember Rick Wakeman playing the organ on the Yes song Parallels….. So of course I now have to go listen to that… Thanks for putting that thought in my head… 👍🏻🥂😎
During many of the jillion weddings that I was privileged to play, nearly inevitably a family member came up to have a ‘Come to Jesus’ moment with me during a break, during which their invariable take on how the music should sound, whether louder or softer, too brassy or not enough, faster or slower, or do you think we could get another organ in time….!…..message came through. All of them were well-intentioned; most were marginally helpful, but by gum, they knew what they liked for the big bucks paid out (in our particular church culture…free).
I love when people engage like that, and just want to hear the organ thunder!
That organ really has such a beautiful sound

That sounds GREAT! I like the high, bright mixtures!!!
This is definitly one of my favorite organs!
I get to play a 29 rank J.W. Walker every week and it is an amazing organ!
Christopher Walken: I need more organ.
We used to call that pedal stop a 32 foot resultant goose fart. Gotta love it.

That's what she said!

Is that ... Cosmic Sceptic in a church?
Now that you’ve pointed it out, I can’t unsee it! For an atheist, he’s a very talented organist! 😂
@@pipingpepsi6665oh I’m not him 😅 I’m a WELS Lutheran here in Minnesota! I see the resemblance though 😂
@@riversnelsonorgangood ole Wisconsin. They use a small positive organ at mine.
What registration does that organ have? I love it! 👌
I have a video showing this organ stop by stop if you’re interested!
@@riversnelsonorgan - please, that would be very interesting. Thanks.
More cowbell…
Too bad it’s a dead room.
The acoustics are significantly better in person, not the best, but pretty good. I have heard worse
@@riversnelsonorgan after installing a new organ in a church, we tried to convince the church to take up the carpet. But nope! Real dead room.
So sad when that happens, it’s like stuffing a pillow inside an acoustic guitar, kills the sound
