TOCCATA ON CHRIST THE LORD IS RISEN TODAY - Diane Bish

During the second inaugural concert series, Diane dedicates the new 5 manual, 205 rank Möller organ at Calvary Church in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1990. Diane plays her popular arrangement on the hymn Christ the Lord is Risen Today.

That Song!!! Is a worship service in itself! The last few seconds of it (the truth in the text, and the power of the instrument) bring tears to my eyes every time I hear it! This is one of my absolute favorite pieces of music to listen to! Even more than Bach's music. To me, it is like listening to the "Halleluja Chorus" in "Messiah". A celebration!!!

What a great arrangement of great hymn. I wish i could hear what was going on in the right hand a little better. It's so fast and a little muffled

The reeds are a bit thin....or am I wrong? The diapasons are delicious.

This was the last of Moeller Organs. They weren’t noted for spicy reeds and the acoustic of this building isn’t very bright.
