What a delightful rendition of both very well known and virtually unknown yet worthwhile organ pieces, and what a joy to hear such rich sounds emerging from such a modest instrument: most encouraging for those who do not have the luxury of a cathedral-sized organ, to explore the countless sounds and shades innate to each instrument ...
Thank you for the concert Jonathan and Tom - brings back memories of choir concerts performed in St Leonards. Maybe if you get chance, you might want to visit St Thomas' Church, just down the M62 in the village of Newhey.. The tracker organ there was completely destroyed when the church was set on fire in 2007 and during the two and a half year restoration, a redundant organ from St Peter's Loughborough was completely rebuilt and extra digital stops added to make it arguably one of the most magnificent organs in the area.
'Peterloo 1819' Such a moving, evocative and excellent composition. Another fine Recital, Jonathan. Thank you to Tom for the sensitive visual extracts.
Sei bravo maestro! Hai potuto studiare; cosa che a me preclusa. Mi arrangio a fare cosette alla messa di domenica. Muoio con la certezza che ce l'avrei fatta!
Very enjoyable recital so well played and presented. You are a great personality John. Fine organ but as with so many of that era, lacking a 4 foot flute and a 2 foot stop on the Swell.
This was certainly one of your most "personal" concerts. I very much appreciated learning about your early experiences as an organist, as well as your family's involvement in the Middleton community, something well reflected in the very carefully selected pieces you played. Thank you for an hour that has really enriched our lives.
Well I awaken in the morning and this is the perfect way greetings to the staff at the hospital where I am well treated. Once again, "Thank you Scott Brothers. Well done."
God Bless you and Tom I would 💘 to meet Y'all I Live in USA in Virginia however have 🐝 n to Europe and Wales what a glorious Life u all have 🐝 n blessed with such a strong heritage....How old were you and Tom when u started lessons? And did u start around the same time together playing? One thing I Love about England is the Madjesty and presciscene everything is done escpecially 🎶...I believe the grandeur is a thing about the Catholic Church and how it upholds the beauty of England....So happy u r having concerts again will be so lovely when the parishioners can be assembled back together again.....Well Thank you for the FANTASTIC CONCERT LOOKING FORWARD TO MANY MORE 💘 MS DEE
Grand playing! One only wishes that in the commentary that a mention of the organ builder and the number of ranks n the various excellent instrument utilized in these fantastic recitals!
That console is certainly 1920's. Pedal toe pistons by Ernest Holt haven't been made since the early 1960's. Again Jonathon - another wonderful programme.
All the work is done and I'm sitting here with a glass of champagne, looking forward to another extraordinary event with Jonathan and Tom. My deepest regrets to HRH Queen Elizabeth. Lost the love of her life. A special day in many ways.
A wonderful recital! The Dance & Hollins were fun; the Elgar & Dido were so moving as was Zadok. St. Leonard's is so impressive as you drive up the hill. The view & history surround you. Hopefully I can visit inside next time. Thank you both for another history lesson celebrated with music. ❤❤🎹🎶

People who know me well also know that ‘Peterloo 1819’ is among my very favourite pieces. I was captivated at its premiere in 2015 and have been fortunate enough to be in the audience at three more live performances since. It’s so evocative of that day’s events, especially as described by Samuel Bamford who was a remarkable man in many different ways. It’s such a shame that there were problems during the playing today - everybody PLEASE go back to replay and listen! Alternatively there is a video made in 2017 at St Paul’s Church, Royton. (Lost count of the number of times I’ve watched this!)
Wonderful arrangement of "Zadok the Priest ", especially the quiet beginning. First heard the piece here in Chicago, USA by the "Music of the Baroque " orchestra and chorus led by British conductor Jane Glover.
J'apprécie vos talents d'organiste, mais j'aimerais aussi pouvoir comprendre vos commentaires, qui sont dépourvus de traductions en Français... alors merci d'avance pour ce petit plus... Vive les Orgues, le roi des instruments! Au plaisir de vous écouter.
A wonderful concert in memory of Prince Philip. My sincere condolences to HRH Queen Elizabeth on the loss of her loved one. As Thomas and Jonathan take us on these "concert tours" about their countryside, I'm amazed at the beauty of the churches, absolutely stunning, and some of the best organs in the world. Jonathon does every one of the organs I've heard him play total justice. Jonathon, we love you and anxiously await your next gift of music to us. Be safe and stay well.
I had a feeling Jonathan's next concert would include, or even be, a celebration of Prince Philip, and the royal family. My sympathies to HRH Queen Elizabeth, her family, and all Britons on the Prince's passing. This will be a very special concert, and I'm looking forward to it with great interest! Tom has outdone himself with the artwork for this "recital" - putting Jonathan into the stained glass window is genius! Reminders are set! I can't wait!
@Konstantin Ridaya I never heard that about him! I have heard other things about him that aren't so admirable. Everyone has pros and cons, and none of us are angels!
This will be an extraordinary concert! I love the fact that he is going to play his own composition 'Peterloo' as well as the glorious "Zadok the Priest", reminiscent of the Coronation. "When I am laid in earth" is fitting music for Prince Philip on the day of his funeral. It will also be a nod to our lovely Queen to hear Jonathan play The Wedding March, very likely reminding her of the day she got joined to the Love of her Life. I think Jonathan is going to tug at all our heart-strings on this day.
Thank you both, again, for another great concert. I played Dido's Lament many times at remembrance during my military years, but never was it a more appropriate day than this. 😥
Many thanks to Jonathan and Tom for this wonderful recital. The historic remarks on the organs and churches are always so interesting and much appreciated. Your original composition was certainly brilliant.👍❤️ The Handel was great fun !
What a wonderful concert, with such appropriate selections to honor HRH Prince Philip. The history and photography add so much to the presentation. Thank you Jonathan and Tom.
Another great performance Jonathan. As a fellow organist, I watch this in awe of you. Magnificent playing, and great videoing from Tom too. Look forward to you coming over York way sometime soon!
Mendelssohn's Wedding March was first played in an organ arrangement at the wedding of Dorothy Carew and Thomas Daniel on 2 June 1847 at St. Peter's, Tiverton, Devon. It was arranged for organ by the organist on that occasion, Samuel Reay.
Another really enjoyable recital Jonathan (and Tom). I really loved your "Peterloo 1819" and the Elgar Sospiri (which I was unfamiliar with). Your arrangement of Dido's Lament from Purcell's Dido and Aeneas was also very moving. You continue to educate us all - both with your commentary on the background/context of the music but also the history of the instruments on which you perform and their locations. Thank you both - and take care. Tony, Cheshire UK
How lovely of Jonathan and Tom to dedicate this gorgeous concert to the memory of Prince Philip - I’m sure that he would have approved. “Dido’s Lament” and “Sospiri” were particularly poignant in the circumstances. I’ve been waiting for ages for “Peterloo 1819” to be included in one of these online concerts, as it’s a great piece; I did have problems with buffering, though, so I hope that was just me ... it will be fine when I replay it, I’m sure!! As always, Tom did a brilliant job of showing off the beauty of the church. Thanks to you both.
Thanks gents a lovely recital. i love Rushworth organs they have such a big warm sound. We have one in the St George’s centre: former Chatham dockyard church. Only a 2 manual but sounds much bigger than jts spec. What a gorgeous church too. I think we have the finest churches in the world. I love organs from that era too: bold but never exceeding the realms of good taste. I used to play the 1920 Harrison organ in Crediton Devon. It is very similar in tone.
Another superb recital from an exceptionally talented organist! This version of 'Dido's Lament' was particularly moving, it was lovely to hear the Wedding March played simply as a concert piece and, as a football fan, I also really enjoyed Jonathan's rendition of 'Zadok the Priest' (I just hope Liverpool can qualify for next season's Champions' League)! Compliments too should also go to Tom for the outstanding filming and sound recording. I listened to this through my Sony headphones, and it sounded stunning!
Thank you Jonathan and Tom for the high quality (in music, sound, visuals and production) concerts that we get to experience. I love your introductions to each piece, including an anecdote or personal link to the music, or some interesting historical or musical information. Dido's Lament was particularly moving today. Thank you so much!
What a beautiful church, and the organ, not the grand ones Mr Scott has played elsewhere, but it possesses a sparkling tone and suits the setting and the music to a T. As usual, Mr Scott makes use of every part of the organ in his recital, nothing dull or workaday here. There's a whole world of music around the pipe organ of which I know so little, so these concerts are not just enjoyable for their own sake, but in widening one's musical horizons. The Peterloo Massacre was a horrible incident and deserves to be commemorated. But events in Northern Ireland, South Africa show we have to remain vigilant as entrenched powerful people and organisations can feel very threatened by popular opposition and change.
Thank you for your live performance. I couldn't see it because of the time difference, but when I was in elementary school (this is 3:00 am), I heard songs that I practiced with a recorder, and I enjoyed listening to them nostalgic. Thank you for your wonderful and beautiful performance. And thank you to all the staff.
Thank you, Jonathan, for another hour of pure joy. And many thanks for the interesting historical background information. You are so well informed and friendly and charming, I could listen to you for hours. The coronation anthem from Händel war the perfect piece for the end of the concert, and finally the sun came out, a smile frome someone above? Yet I wonder who will play the wedding march at your wedding one day... 😉Awesome building, I love the English churches and cathedrals. Phantastic footage and sound, Tom, great job, thanks to you, too. Btw. I love the wooden mermaid, her little belly looks like mine 😇. Many thanks from Germany, take care. 💕
I love the fact that Jonathan and Tom have brought together so many of us from around the world to form this very special community. In the same vein, I wonder if Gina Dodds from the USA is okay? She used to comment so effusively.
Bernstein was right, when he said "Music is the universal language", I think from that point of view, Jonathan and Tom have one of the most beautiful professions. No politics, no opinions - just the joy for the music by brilliant composers, performed by a brilliant artist, documented by a guy with remarkabke technical skills. All we have to do is to sit down, lean back, close the eyes and FEEL the music and the spirit which comes with it, no matter, where we come from, which education or colour of skin we have. In that special moment, when the music speaks, we are united, maybe a bit enlightened, trying to catch a glimpse of the idea, the composer had a few hundred years ago, whilst writing the music, it is such a fascinating and enjoyable time, we can all share together. I simply love it. 💕
Wonderful music! The commentary adds so much to it as well as the remarkable photography. BTW, Jonathan, what are all the switches for on both sides of the console? Are they registration controls?
Lol, since no one has ever become a saint while alive, referring to Jonathan as "Saint Jonathan" has the uncomfortable implication that he has already gone to his great reward! Hopefully, that won't happen for at least another hundred years, if ever! Please, let's not hurry him off! 😇
I hope I can hear you perform live one day. There's a good chance I'll be back in Europe this January assuming the vaccine does it's job and idiots don't create a new varient, so fingers crossed.
Peterloo 1819 is magnificant, especially with your personal introduction. What a great slice of history. Thank you!
What a delightful rendition of both very well known and virtually unknown yet worthwhile organ pieces, and what a joy to hear such rich sounds emerging from such a modest instrument: most encouraging for those who do not have the luxury of a cathedral-sized organ, to explore the countless sounds and shades innate to each instrument ...
Love the window with Saint Jonathan!
Thank you for the concert Jonathan and Tom - brings back memories of choir concerts performed in St Leonards.
Maybe if you get chance, you might want to visit St Thomas' Church, just down the M62 in the village of Newhey..
The tracker organ there was completely destroyed when the church was set on fire in 2007 and during the two and a half year restoration, a redundant organ from St Peter's Loughborough was completely rebuilt and extra digital stops added to make it arguably one of the most magnificent organs in the area.
'Peterloo 1819' Such a moving, evocative and excellent composition.
Another fine Recital, Jonathan. Thank you to Tom for the sensitive visual extracts.
Sei bravo maestro! Hai potuto studiare; cosa che a me preclusa. Mi arrangio a fare cosette alla messa di domenica. Muoio con la certezza che ce l'avrei fatta!
Another fabulous sound and performance from St Leonards.
England is gifted with such a phenomenal number of magnificent churches and chapels, all of them great concert houses As well. THX
Very enjoyable recital so well played and presented. You are a great personality John.
Fine organ but as with so many of that era, lacking a 4 foot flute and a 2 foot stop on the Swell.
That was cool the way Tom had us walking up the aisle when you began the wedding march.
This was certainly one of your most "personal" concerts. I very much appreciated learning about your early experiences as an organist, as well as your family's involvement in the Middleton community, something well reflected in the very carefully selected pieces you played.

So sad to see Her Majesty sitting alone today 😪
@@NakedMuso I watched Prince Philip's funeral this morning, too, and also felt sad for Queen Elizabeth.
A wonderful recital! The Dance & Hollins were fun; the Elgar & Dido were so moving as was Zadok. St. Leonard's is so impressive as you drive up the hill. The view & history surround you. Hopefully I can visit inside next time. Thank you both for another history lesson celebrated with music. ❤❤🎹🎶

The late great D’Oyly Carte baritone Alan Styler is buried in St. Leonard’s Churchyard.
Love this!!!
Thank you
Fine, instructive and highly aesthetic!
What a treat! I was scouring the archives just the other day to see if you had recorded Zadok the Priest and now here it is. Perfect!
that is one of the best sounding organs in the world
A nice-sounding instrument.
I believe Her Gracious Royal Majesty should bestow Knighthood on Jonathan and Dr. Tom! Service to music, and to Albion!
I love the fact that Jonathan and Tom have brought together so many of us from around the world to form this very special community.

Looks like the chapel in the movie Skyfall... but Wikipedia doesn't put it there.
👼👼 Haloes suit you!
Too late for live chat, this is just to say I had the stopping and starting problem too.
I have ancestors married in this very church in October 1819
That thumbnail is gold :D
Thank you for another brilliant concert. Isn't it about time that Tom gave a solo concert?
❤️❤️❤️
Johnathan, your piece has some Harmannian/Elfmannian influences in it.
Wonderful music! The commentary adds so much to it as well as the remarkable photography. BTW, Jonathan, what are all the switches for on both sides of the console? Are they registration controls?
Tom Scott, are you related to the Thomas Scott on WWI memorial @ 34:10 ?
Comfort in a troubled world.
The perfomance is beautifull, but I'm having problems with the cast
