This young man is outstanding. Very creative and the way he played this Easter classic is like none other. The congregation and choir can lift their voices on Easter Sunday and proclaim that Christ the is Risen today Hallelujah! keep up the great work!
Amen! I love to hear that there are younger people [I'm 47] who appreciate traditional hymns. Nothing contemporary compares to the sound of an old fashioned hymn played on a church organ. There are still churches that have traditional worship services. Seek and ye shall find. :) May God bless you and I hope that you have a blessed Easter.
Thank you so much for this! What a beautiful rendition of my favorite Easter hymn. I can not get through Mass without crying when I (try to) sing this through. The organist looks like one of my soccer players in high school!
This reminds me a LOT of the old guy that used to play the great cathedral organ at the Crystal Cathedral back in the day.. could even be one of his arrangements.. it's superb playing of a superb arrangement!
You are very talented ! You did an EXCELLENT job on my favorite Hymm. You can search: Jesus Christ is Risen Today Notre Dame and see another version .... Your's is GREAT !
I am preparing to fly to the USA from Germany soon and look forward to attending an Easter Service in CA and singing this most beautiful hymn at Eastern.
Great work pal, I've heard this hymn in many churches on many organs in my life, and I'm happy to tell you that your rendition is among the best! Keep up the good work!
I thought I had this video on my favorites list and I couldn't find it for today so I typed it in a song title search and am glad I found it. It's staying on my list now......this jams!!!
This song is already amazing and the way you play it is simply superb! It definitely got me stoked to hear it at Easter Mass! Happy Easter and keep up the great work man!
Wonderfully played! I love how you did the first verse. I'm thinking of arranging a piano/ organ duet with the piano doing the lines and the organ doing the refrain of "Hallelujah!"
Way to go dude!! This is one of my favorite Easter Hymns. I could listen to this 1000 times and not get bored of it. The way you play, the stops you use and the improvisation you put in is amazingly AWESOME!! I am also an organist at my church in Oakbank, Manitoba, Canada and i like to try adding stuff to hymns when i play them. Some times it's not always successful but at least i try. haha. So well done!! Please make more. cheers!
As a child, this how I remember my church organist blasting this hymn out in an old New England white congregationl church in Easter Sunday morning. It still give me goose pimples... wONDERFUL!!!!
LOVED the improv!!! I have worked in churches for many years, but, I have never seen any organist (with the exception of an organist friend in Arizona & she has been at the console for many years) put as much love, heart, soul & JOY into this hymn as you have. For a young man of your age, I am in awe! Looking forward to more video posts soon. Thank you p.s. I plan to share this with my friend in AZ - She will love it!
Absolutely stunning performance of this glorious Easter Hymn Brent! Love your trumpet 1st verse introduction. Your registrations give the inspiration this hymn demands. You are truly an awesome organist! :o)) Many a congregation would kill to have you sat at their organ bench! The 1968 Reuter pipe organ is wonderful. Sadly, I wasn't there to hear it live!! Ignore the non constructive commenters. Please post and share more of your magnificent talent. Best Wishes, Roy
I really like the use of the trumpet reeds in this rendition. This would be a most uplifting performance to lead a congregation. They would be thrilled as I was to hear it.
And all GOD's people said, "WOW!" Very nice trill as you close that flutters the soul to be joyful, joyful. Your next stop should be Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in L.A.! BRAVO!ENCORE!
Just found this in looking for music for my Mother's memorial service and absolutely LOVED it. I think this would be terrific as the postlude!! Thanks so much for recording and making this available.
Oh!! This was the most beautiful version I've ever heard this Glorious song played. Oh I have chills....breathtaking. The musician was absolutely 💯 outstanding!!!
very good! I like the modulation and descant on the last verse - normally I'm a singer in the congregation (many in Church don't sing), but this is the kind of playing that would make me want to stop singing and listen... I can almost feel the vibrations from the organ on my computer :-) Nicely done.
Everything about this is superb! Articulation, expression, modulation, introduction. A very powerful rendition of a very favorite hymn for Easter Day! Thank you!
The Reuter organ has an impressive sound. I enjoyed this rendition of such a great hymn of the church. I hope more postings come from "brestull". Thank you for this enjoyable posting.
When you went so full on verse 3, I was afraid you wouldn't have anywhere to go on 4, but looks like I didn't have to worry. Nice abrupt modulation too Thanks!
When are you going to bless us us with more videos? I have served in many churches over the years, and your version of this powerful hymn, is the best I have ever heard. I have shared this video with organist friends around the world, and they are in as much awe as I am. As a young organist, you have a wonderful gift & talent. I hope you will continue to share your gift with others. Peace & Blessings
Excellent ! You are very talented Brent! I always looked forward to hearing this hymn at the Easter Vigil at Guardian Angel's Church (in all places, Las Vegas!)
I go to Coventry Cathedral on Easter Sunday's not because of any paticularly strong religious convictions, but because their rendition of this hymn that day is always face meltingly fantastic.
I've watched a million times and still can't get enough.

He is so good. Thank you for this music.
I play this video every easter morning since I've found it.
Do you still play it every Easter?
This is honestly the best video on TH-cam of this hymn. You bring that organ to life man! Well-done! And that key change...wow!
Amen!
This guy has talent on loan from God!
Thank you so much for this! What a beautiful rendition of my favorite Easter hymn. I can not get through Mass without crying when I (try to) sing this through. The organist looks like one of my soccer players in high school!
Simply spectacular! love the trumpet fanfare telling everyone that something out of the ordinary has happened! Amen. Happy Easter to everyone. kevlutu

How old are you? Love seeing young people take an interest in such a classic piece of American History. Great hymn played VERY WELL!
Beautiful hymn
Played exactly as it was meant. It's a beautiful instrument and skillfully played!
Wonderful!!!! Nice bass tones.
I thought I had this video on my favorites list and I couldn't find it for today so I typed it in a song title search and am glad I found it. It's staying on my list now......this jams!!!
And all the people say Amen!
I hope one day I can play that instrument playing piano at the moment
This is a beautiful song. And, the organist played it quite well. Bravo.
Talented and tasteful. Can't ask for more than that.

Our old Organist could play like this. God how I miss her. So many today drag these songs out and it’s depressing. These are hymns of praise!
LOVED the improv!!!

Same here
You are extremely talented. It's a gift from God. You are Awesome. Wow

Easter is the bigest holyday of christianitie.
very good!

I think this just may be my favorite of all youtube videos.
Outstanding! Great performance.
WOW!!! You play very well!!! The congregation you lead singing will raise the roof!!!
Very nice!
Awesome!!! Chills up my spine!!!
Wow, that trumpet is perfect in this hymn
how encouraging to see a young Catholic guy, like myself, is a musician and shares a love of traditional music.....
Excellent!!!
Magnifica interpretacion , todo un artista
Beyond words AMAZING! I have this saved to favorites for when I need Divine Inspiration. You have a true gift. Thank you very much!
Most of my background is in more contemporary music, but I love to hear a joyous, celebratory organ solo. I only wish I could play it. This is great!
This young man is blessed, indeed!
Very fine playing, on a great hymn. I hope you post more! God Job
Well done young man... Hope you will post more down the road.
I go to Coventry Cathedral on Easter Sunday's not because of any paticularly strong religious convictions, but because their rendition of this hymn that day is always face meltingly fantastic.
