I love the split screen showing pedals and the console. I've always said that playing an organ is like playing a piano, driving a car and piloting an airplane all at the same time.
Орган звучит волшебно, божественно. Инструмент - результат человеческого гения, благословленного Господом! Благодарю тебя Господи, за то что нам дано это услышать!
Things like the pipe organ are why I have such a laugh at those ancient alien shows that assume that humans aren't/weren't smart enough to build such things. Humans are capable of incredible things, like building this incredible instrument.
The performance, the organ,and the sound of the hall all match up perfectly and express the splendor of the BWV 645 to the fullest. This is my favorite BWV 645 performance.
Favorite piece of music. Or certainly in top 5! Let's wake up to what is real. The love underlying all things which is what Herr Bach clearly knew and lived and was trying to communicate. All good things everyone!
What absolute beauty. I'm just tackling this piece now at the request of one of my pastors for the upcoming Advent, and this gorgeous rendition is definitely inspiring me. Thank you!!!!!
My late grandchild Brian was fascinated by organs, he used to keep one in his shed as a memento of what he longed to play. Sadly he lost his fingers to a badger and was quite depressed by it. Often I would catch him playing with his stumps on the organ. Bless you my child
I particularily enjoy all manner of organ music because of the great diversity of each of the surviving organs that the music is played on. I am very happy when I see church organs of the baroque era and some of the bellow organs of Eurpope still being played by great musicians for this instrument.
1) Rodney Gehrke is director of music at All Saints' Episcopal Church, Palo Alto, organist and choir director at San Francisco's Temple Emanu-El, undergraduate organ instructor at the Univ of California-Berkeley and adjunct lecturer in church music/liturgy at Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary, Berkeley. Gehrke has performed and recorded with the Philh Baroque Orch. and has also made two recordings of Mexican baroque music with Chanticleer, with whom he toured the Southwest & Mexico in 1998.
I love this piece, on piano or organ. This is a great performance of it, and I love the split-screen segments showing the foot and finger work simultaneously.
My late partner's favorite Bach. He was a pianist, organist, and choir director, and this was one of his specialties, both on the organ and in its piano transcription; this was something he specifically requested be played at his memorial service. The last twenty years of his life he only played Bach, with the exception of the occasional Chopin composition.
een geweldig voorbeeld van hoe Bach het meerstemmig spel in al zijn subtiliteiten op het orgel beheerste. het is een triosonatedeel van de eerste orde. Alle muziekliefhebbers organisten pianisten dirigenten en componisten moeten hier buigen voor de grote Bach (*Mozart en van Beethoven inclusief).
Thank you for inserting great shots of the pedal work. As I know the melody br heart, this is what interested me the most. A lot of videos like to feature « the artist playing » ; which I turn off in no time. Great shots of the clavier work too. I found the tempo a trite fast, compared to other versions.

Probably one of the best pieces Bach has ever composed.
Agree!
You hear the watchman pacing up and down in the bass line!
@@Ellie49 I never knew the bassline meant that. Thanks for the info. Learned something new today
Listen with choir
I must confess I also agree….
JS Bach was God's gift to mankind. ❤
Precioso comentario. Alabado sea Jesucristo ❤!!
Y encima eres del Sevilla, igual que yo...😮😂

This is my favorite BWV 645 performance.
What a wonderful piece. The Holy Spirit must have been "die Stimme" that inspired Bach to write this. Excellent recording - -Great job!
Bach ti porta in Paradiso. La sua Musica è Celestiale 🌌 Soli Deo Gloria Saluti da Lecce 😎 👋 ❤
Split screen is wonderful.........
The quality of the sound just wow
Tx!
I had this played at Darling Dad's funeral in 1985.
Wow! Did the organist do a good job? Not many organists would have this in their usual funeral repertoire.
How can this music, so simple, so naive, be so extremely touching and beautiful?
Rodney, This is a joy to listen to. Outstanding stop selection and playing. It's really perfect.
Favorite piece of music. Or certainly in top 5!
Let's wake up to what is real. The love underlying all things which is what Herr Bach clearly knew and lived and was trying to communicate.
All good things everyone!
繊細で大胆な演奏が何度もこの動画をリピートさせてしまいます。何度も何度も聞いていたい演奏をありがとうございます。
maravilhoso toda a obra de Bach quando toco ate os pelos me ficam todos de pe e divinal
I love this version the most! So warm and cozy, beautiful
So gentle and loving. Thank you Mr. Bach. I never appreciated you until now
Our high school choir sang this as a warm up piece at the begining of class in 8 part harmony! ❤love this piece!❤
Wonderful playing, camera, audio and of course Bach!
Stunning tempo - stunning articulation - stunning all around. Thank you so much, Mr. Gehrke, that just made my Advent 2014!
Strepitoso Bach e strepitosa esecuzione! Complimenti anche al regista del video!
My heart was purified.
Thank you very much.
Bach und Gehrke Uber Alles, Wunderbar! !
Tempo is absolutely correct in my opinion. The Flentrop organ enhances this good performance. Bravo Walvis !
Благодарю-это превосходно!
Tempo choice is absolutely spot-on, I feel. Kudos!
:)
agree
Agree too.
中学校で毎朝これを聞いてたのを大人になった今思い出しました。
とても懐かしいです。
Great organ and recording! Very warm and full sound.
What absolute beauty. I'm just tackling this piece now at the request of one of my pastors for the upcoming Advent, and this gorgeous rendition is definitely inspiring me. Thank you!!!!!
Go for it!
This sounds so original from the tempo, the horns up to the reverb in the piece, it's very great... Thank you so much guy
Потрясающе...
Gorgeous Flentrop organ, beautiful interpretation of this eternal piece.
A perfect performance of this lovely piece IMO 😃
Many thanks!
Наслаждение просто
As a professional organ examiner, I approve!
Good one.
My late grandchild Brian was fascinated by organs, he used to keep one in his shed as a memento of what he longed to play. Sadly he lost his fingers to a badger and was quite depressed by it. Often I would catch him playing with his stumps on the organ. Bless you my child
Awake, the voice is calling us 😊
Wow this organ is SO WARM.

Love the playing, love the music.. and Flentrop makes the most delicious organs!
w- wakko warner
Oh my goodness! Words escape me.
Listen to this late night riding through the city prolonging dawn

Thanks for listening
An absolutely lovely rendition of one of my favourite Bach pieces (from last 25 years)! Thank you for this lovely piece!
Unreal.. just amazing. 35 people gave it a thumbs down!? Bizarre world!

Absolutely beautiful!
Big thumbs-up here. Although I like it very slightly slower, overall this is the best performance I have heard. Superb!
Just beautiful.
Thank you.
Bach himself would have been pleased with this interpretation--thank you for sharing.
hope so :)
El Maestro Bach... descubrió con ésta pieza el Rock...la melodía del bajo...da testimonio de su Arte.
I love this piece, on piano or organ. This is a great performance of it, and I love the split-screen segments showing the foot and finger work simultaneously.
I agree fully. The split screen yields insight as to what is taking place regarding the organist.
Bravo, maestro! 😉
wonderful Interpretation!!!!!
Sao obras divinas
Que maravilla, tacar con las manos y los pies, debe ser difícil coordinar las cuatro extremidades, para tocar un instrumento musical.
0:20 This was the major inspiration for the Hammond Organ accompaniment to Whiter Shade of Pale
素晴らしい♪
Wachet Auf gotta love it
Happy Advent - thank you Rod!!
아름다운 소리에 감동받았습니다😍😍
Now, THAT’S What’s Up! Angelic man. Just Angelic.
like, hoping this play would be played when my last day, it is perfect and touchable and feel something.
This is the voice of god
Bach. Its the only thing I can say...
Amazing. Thank you for the great music.
Thank you so much!
Hi Rod! Beautiful playing....
Zeer mooie klank !

I love Bach Uber alles
Thank you for inserting great shots of the pedal work. As I know the melody br heart, this is what interested me the most. A lot of videos like to feature « the artist playing » ; which I turn off in no time. Great shots of the clavier work too. I found the tempo a trite fast, compared to other versions.
GREAT answer!!
I love the tempo here, really great
would love an elongated or repeated episode of the minor key
MUY BELLO!!! GRACIAS
terrific, as usual.
Благодарю
Great
che meraviglia Bach...
Wonderful!
凄えわｗｗｗｗｗダイエルコルゼンパのこの曲聞いて以来だわこんなにスッキリしたのｗｗｗ
All stand for the National Anthem of Careg'r-honw!
Wake up, the voice calls us ... to be precise.
