The only thing missing is the tumultuous applause of the full house this performance so richly deserved. I'm not really into organ arrangements of orchestral pieces, but yours are so damned good and so excellently played! These TH-cam concerts are a delight. Congratulations and thanks.
I've been listening to the 1812 overture since I was about 8 years old I'm now 70 years old and for the first time I've heard this piece played on the King of instruments and I can tell you this is a King performance well done sir
Year 2001, somewhere in Ohio, the 4-th of July open air concert... the Conductor announces: "Don't ask me why we perform Russian composer Piotr Tchaikovsky on the 4-th of July...I don't know why"... and the final (real) cannons mixed with thunderstorm, lightnings and heavy rain in the dark... everyone left totally wet and impressed. (greetings from Russia)
In memory of the fact that the US declared war on Great Britain in 1812 hoping to take advantage the British involvement in the Napoleonic War to take over Canada. Unfortunately for them they only managed to fight a losing draw that time as the Brits/Canadians pulled back after sacking Washington DC and burning down the White house and conquering the northern shore of Lake Erie almost to Detroit. The French were unable to come and help the US win unlike 35 years earlier.
@bfcmik Wrong. The US only wanted part of Canada and not very badly. The US declared war on Great Britain to stop the Royal Navy kidnapping our merchant sailors at sea and forcing them to serve on their ships. That objective was achieved so we won.
Played this on the TV through my home cinema system. One day I’ll play it really loud. Frightening. Only just discovered these brothers. Already a huge fan!
Way back in the early 90s I was an artilleryman stationed at Ft Stewart GA, and my unit (A battery 13th field artillery) was “salute battery” for the 24th infantry division (mechanized.) The gun crews provided cannon fire from 75mm pack howitzers for military ceremonies, parades, and other functions, and in either 1991 or 92 they fired for the Savannah Symphony’s July 4th performance of the 1812 Overture. Looking back, I wish I’d been part of a gun crew at least once.
Every one of this man's videos leave me speechless. To the videographer, thank you for showing more of his footwork in this video then you have in others. His footwork is every bit as amazing as his nimble fingers!!
If this is to your liking there is another massively extravagant piece written for a celebration of a French loss in 1812. Wellington's Victory by Beethoven. As written it has an expanded orchestra, two brass bands, cannon and muskets. If you listen with headphones it starts with a drummer marching in one ear and out the other.
I was enjoying the performance at full volume while I was sending emails and nearly keeled off my secretary chair when the cannons went off (didn't notice that in the title) For one horrible moment I thought Mr. Scott had been assassinated by someone sent by Tsar Putin as punishment for the temerity of arranging the piece for organ. Will listen again suitably immunized against heart attack!
Extraordinary execution, the arrangement was phenomenal! It was an enormous effort in all ways, but the results were without comparison. Even Napoleon would have liked.
Back in 2005 I was the bass trombonist in the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra, we played the 1812 Overture side by side with the ASO, every time I hear this work it brings back such vivid memories of that amazing performance. Hearing it on organ is absolutely amazing, I had chills from the 15 minute mark to the end. Incredible!!
I can beat that (timewise). I played the 1812 (unfortunately never in concert) with my High School Band (Ft. Lauderdale High, FLA) as bass drummer, bought a record on my way back to Germany in New York, have listened to various performances over the years (I’m 74 now) and today (03:27 before retiering) for the first time on an organ. Thank you for the amazing experience.
YES! The final cannon shot, where it ALWAYS SHOULD HAVE BEEN... There are better *performances* of this piece, with better bells, real cannon, and a chorus performing the opening tune a capella... but this is the best ARRANGEMENT I've heard in fifty years of listening to it.
You know it's coming. You just KNOW it's coming. I'm an older contankerous curmudgeon. When it got here... my goosebumps had goosebumps! One finds one's self right in the middle of things with this man. This performance was the way this piece was meant to be played, and no other! I just went up to play it again. As my cursor crossed the timeline, the sound level came up. Right around 12:45 it begins to take off. I don't get to smile too often like this. One cannot be depressed after watching this!
Double standing ovation from me. Superb piece-excellent registrations-phenomenal use of manuals and pedal-camera angles were masterful. Left me speechless and appreciative. Thank you
Absolutely beautiful. Music and music 🎶 for everyone who loves to listen and see the magic and feels the love and magical influence it has on a person's mind and let's you forget the terrible pain in the world all the GLORY GOES TO GOD BLESS YOU ALL WHO FINDS PEACE IN ABUNDANCE AMEN PRAISE GOD BLESS ALL 🙌 🙏 😊 ❤🎉
Mille mercis pour toutes vos interprétations et transcriptions C’est un vrai bonheur de vous écouter En tant qu’organiste ayant donné des concerts c’est avec beaucoup d’intérêt que je vous écoute soit en soliste ou en duo avec votre frère Continuez à nous faire passer de si bons moments dans ce monde un peu chaotique
No song can bring as big a smile to my face as the 1812 Overture, and your renditions are the greatest I've ever heard! Thank you for continually inspiring me to keep playing the pipe organ; your arrangements are all beyond superb!
@@Daidan0 As a classically trained musician and professional pipe organist, I am well aware of the distinction. I just don't feel the need to nitpick my terminology when leaving a TH-cam comment.

@@phyzygy what an amazing performance....and you never made a mistake!!! (Only u would know). I wish I had adequate words to tell u how I felt when listening....and watching u perform.....with such ease, confidence, and professional. Thank u to both you and your brother for creating such a masterpiece....for ALL of us to enjoy. Where did you get your education... to play??
The beginning of this song is always beautiful, but on the organ, tears filled my eyes. I have never heard this song played in such a unique way, and it is certainly one of the best I've heard. Your gift is beyond comprehension, you are a blessing on this earth.
Absolutely fantastic!!!! Incredible talent. I thought someone would have to dig Jonathan out of the keyboard because he played with such passion and emotion. I’m gobsmacked!! Then he walked out the door as if he was getting the bus home.......🤭🇬🇧
Great piece, great performance rendered by a great organist at the king of instruments !!! Congrats, Prof. Jonathan Scott ! Marvelous ! JAL, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, South America
WOW! I've always loved organ music!! When I came upon the Scott brothers organ music a few months ago, I fell in love with their organ music and playing this wonderful instrument!! Thank you!!🎼🎵🎶🎹🥰💕🧡🧡
Darn it. Our Allen electronic church organ has a chimes (bells) stop, but doesn't have a cannon stop. I'll just have to fix that. Thank you Jonathan. My favorite overture. And thanks Tom for your as usual impeccable sound and camera work.
Absolutely brilliantly!! I am in awe of the skill and effort that must have been put into this arrangement. This is a classical piece that I have listened to so many times, and have been to a few performances thereof. But this must be the most incredible performance that I have ever heard. Bravo!!
In the evening, I felt like the children and their families came home and prayed before dinner. It was a wonderful performance that made me feel the moment of family unity. Thank you for uploading.
I love accidentally finding stuff like this, its like getting an unexpected Christmas present
Homie pulled up to the church, poured his heart and soul into playing that organ and just left like nothing happened. Amazing.
The angels loved every second of it.
Even just going in and playing music is worship. If it brings one joy it’s worship
When either one of the Scott brothers puts his hands on a piano or organ, us poor mortals are given a chance to experience Heaven on earth!!
Who's Homie?? This is a very skilled artist that knows what to do with this instrument. 👏
At least the church was good for something (have fun ;p)
This is what being an organ player is. We would live for this, we do live for this
If only this video was 9 seconds longer...
@Oliver Viehland Hey it made it to 420 likes. That's gotta be worth something...
Wesley Van Pelt, that last name sounds familiar I swear
@@Arthur-jy2so Peanuts?
@@wcvp Ah yes the Peanuts haha
And also another tv show I don't know which one though. So many people on Tv shows have names like this idk why

that and the cannons having a little more bass register to their sound like a high caliber cannon rather than sounding like silver fulminate snaps
I appreciate the raw organ rendition. All of the pyro is just fluff. Yes, I enjoy the cannons and fireworks; but the Overture stands alone.
This performance brought me to tears at the end... 😂

War of 1812. We appropriated it, because of course we did.

My band could barely play this with 130 people and you played the whole damn thing. Amazing.
Organ's are magnificent
To be a soloist organist has to be the ultimate, even beyond conductor.
Played this on the TV through my home cinema system. One day I’ll play it really loud. Frightening. Only just discovered these brothers. Already a huge fan!
Just played this and my muslim neighbor already uneasy to hear this.
@@augustaverbian 💀💀💀💀
The fact that one person can make this music by himself is truly awe-inspiring.
Prior to electricity there needed to be like, 12 people manning the bellows, but, other than that...
The Scott brothers are a class act! Beautiful music!
Never heard this on an organ before. BRAVO!
1812, one of my favourites from Tchaikovsky!
That is the best solo performance of 1812 that I've heard. It brought me to tears. Amazing!
this is without a doubt one of the most jaw-dropping organ performances on the entire Internet

THAT WAS ABSOUTELY THE MOST AMAZING PIECE OF WORK I'VE EVER HEARD! INCREDIBL;E PERFORMANCE!
I am exhausted. What an incredible ride!! Applause, respect and a big, warm "Wow, that was excellent, eh!?" from 🇨🇦
Wow, hearing it on this organ gives it a whole new character.---I don't know how you guys did that, but you made ME jump!
Yea especially in the finale!
Probably to avoid the cannon balls flying over your head! Yes then better dive.
Every one of this man's videos leave me speechless. To the videographer, thank you for showing more of his footwork in this video then you have in others. His footwork is every bit as amazing as his nimble fingers!!
The organ in Jon’s hands is truly the King of instruments
And the instrument of madmen

top quality organ played by a top quality organist with a top quality arrangement
I just picked my jaw up off the floor, amazing.
This performance was magnificent. It brought tears to my eyes.
Oh, to be in that church and hear that organ an those bells! Who dislikes this?
People with zero appreciation for good music
Fantastic transcription! I'm amazed that Jonathon managed to walk down the aisle after playing that!!

This wonderful arrangement shows the pipe organ is definitely the King of all instruments!
OMG! After this experience, I have to pause and catch my breath. Simply amazing!!!
Incredible ! A battle-to-the-death between the organ and the cannons and bells raged in the concluding minutes ... I'm not certain which side won.
Saint Bede 🤗
We did. We won.
Both
EPIC !! Worthy of an Oscar. So dramatic ! "Shot" on the last chord, too. But still bravely walked away !!
The climax brought goose-bumps! Excellent registration. Performance, and videography! I loved it!
this was so unbelievably amazing it could resurrect tchaikovsky himself

Absolutely gorgeous performance ever on the Organ recital
Man did the only thing he really could do after a solo performance of this entire song. get up and go home. walks outta there like "I know what I did"
