"The Show Must Go On" - Organist Xaver Varnus pays tribute to Freddie Mercury. Filmed live by Mate Vargha on the official 55th Birthday Concert of Xaver Varnus on May 5, 2019 in the Church of St. Ladislaus in Budapest-Kőbánya. Special thanks to Mayor Robert Antal D. Kovacs, Town Clerk Dr. Krisztián Szabó, Rev. Attila Balogh and Mr. András Benedek, Director of the Music.
Born in Budapest, his first piano teacher was Emma Németh, one of the last pupils of Claude Debussy. Xaver Varnus has played virtually every important organ in the world, including those in Bach's Thomaskirche in Leipzig (2014), Berliner Dom (2013), Notre-Dame (1981), Saint-Sulpice (2006) and Saint-Eustache (1996) in Paris, National Shrine in Washington, D.C. (1985), and Canterbury Cathedral (2004), as well as the largest existing instrument in the world, the Wanamaker Organ in Philadelphia (1985). His Quadruple Platinum Disc winning album From Ravel to Vangelis, released by Sony BMG in 2007, is the best-selling organ CD ever. As a Canadian citizen, Xaver Varnus resides in Berlin, Germany. "Put simply, Varnus is a monster talent, every bit as stimulating and individual as the late Glenn Gould" (The Globe & Mail, Canada's National Newspaper).

- Do whatever you want with my music. Just dont make it boring.
Freddie Mercury
is this boring?
@@gabrielcarlos2844 I guarantee that hearing this live won't put you to sleep.
@@gabrielcarlos2844 I think his point was that Freddie would approve this because it's definetely not boring
Just imagine if Freddy was still alive and he did colaboration with Xaver, where he sings with organ in background.... wow
I believe he is in Heaven singing to this :)
I’m sure with modern technology this could be merged!
Feel like Varnus sommons Freddie, with every note he plays
What an even more amazing experience that would be. Fantastic thoughts you have, indeed.
That would've been fucking glorious!!!!
Bravo! Wonderful performance, Freddie would approve I'm sure.
Thank you.
TheTelstar008 I agree with you
I am sure as well. And I could imagine him singing there. Great
A rare sight, a master-class musician playing this tribute /and overall awesome song/ and leaving his own ego and style out of it. Just does what the song/music/lyrics requires of him. Pure talent. I feel like I should be paying to hear and watch something like this, how privileged we really are.
Je reste sans voix
Nothing is more magical than the organ sounds. And for honor Freddie, it's more than magical.
I don't know if you are Rammstein fan, but try this one. It is Rammstein - Ohne dich on organ th-cam.com/video/3Lv2koApNTI/w-d-xo.html that is something!
Guitar: I've got Dynamic Range
Organ: Hold my Pipes
How I've not heard this before I dont know. I love queen and the sound of organs. This is simply breath taking. Superb!!
I still can't stop listening to this....I just love it
I’m just the same as you Damian
When you hear Queen play it makes you feel so good but when you hear this great tune played like this it just gives you Goosepimples 😌 outstanding 👏👏
I get goosebumps even from the original. Especially if you know the background behind it, you just can't stay calm.
Великолепно!
Brought tears to my eyes
When genius meets genius the world becomes a different place. Wow! These two geniuses made the world a paradise!
Fantastisch....❤❤
Thank you
Am I the only one that noticed from the description that he played the organ of Notre-Dame when he was only 17?
At0mCollision I wonder if the organ survived the fire...
@@christelchristely2816 The great organ did survive the fire- it's just a bit dusty, only 1 of the 7,866 pipes was damaged by water, they're beginning the restoration of the organ ready for its reopening hopefully in 2024. However, the smaller choir organ by Merklin/Boisseau was flooded and will need to be rebuilt.
Organ players start out really young, I've heard as young as 5 in some cases
@@themanformerlyknownascomme777 Usually the professionals start piano lessons at that age, as 5 year olds generally can’t reach the pedals! Also, it does help to have a good piano background which most professionals do have, but if you want to start playing without it, it’s still entirely possible. Some professionals even wait until much later on when they’ve been a pianist for many years- for example Messiaen started when he was already studying at the Conservatoire de Paris, and he made extremely fast progress.
本物のパイプオルガンで「show must go on」
こんな動画があったなんて。
なんて荘厳なんだろう！
元々クラッシックが好きだったフレディの鎮魂歌にぴったり。
この曲は感情移入し過ぎてつい泣けてくるんだけど、これから何度も見に来ちゃうだろうなぁ。
出逢えたことに感謝を。
Absolutely unbelievably beautiful and amazingly taking by your soul performance 💗💗💗!!! As Freddie Murphy and Xavier are performing together!!! Absolutely Brilliant!!!
I've no idea how or why TH-cam recommended this to me, but I'm so glad it did. Breathtaking!
Великолепно!
Замирало дыхание и мурашки по телу.
меня радует, что сильные органисты играют такую музыку.
Браво!!! Стаккато баса и гармония унесли меня в другую реальность! Это шедевр! Спасибо!!!
Xaver should perform this, with the other Queen members, and Marc Martel doing the vocals. That would be so epic.
Oh..oh my god. Is this reality. Someone did a cover of my favorite Queen song on my favorite instrument!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EEEEE YESSSS!!!
Beautiful performance of a wonderfull song. Thank you Xaver, for posting this masterpiece. Greetings from Holland
This is my favourite organ piece and has reduced me to tears in the past. I have an absolutely awesome audio system ( having been in the trade) and this piece makes the floor shake. Brilliant piece.
Something about FEELING the music that I've always loved!
Listening to this with my "skull candy ANC crusher" my head is vibrating!!!❤❤❤
It is called the 'King of instruments' for a reason. Fantastic rendition!
Музыка прибавила драматизма и даже трагичности..Прекрасно!
This is as legendary as the track itself. Hats off.
My favorite of Queen by my favorite organist.Beautiful,Xaver.
It is because Xaver is a real artist not a superficial virtuoso like someones we know.
Oh yess
Excellent Performance
Внук изучает по карточкам разные инструменты - вчера дочка нашла этот шедевр и мне прислала - фанатке QUEEN
Такого я не ожидала - и слёхы и муращки !!!! БРАВО !!!!!!!!
These are three stunning pieces of art: The composition, the performance --- and Freddie's generosity to give away his music for free. These are the footprints I decided to walk in.
Wow, the goosebumps are everywhere & tingling! Freddie would say “Simply beautiful darling!”
Just beautiful! What a wonderful tribute to Freddie!
It certainly does it justice!
I guess you know, you are a genius, Maestro.
"Compliments" is just a so reductive word in recognition of your execution. You extracted the most ascetic component from Freddy Mercury job, and sacred it.
The impossible, Well done.
Just excellent. The power of Freddie's voice and soul comes through in the performance.
Это потрясающий симбиоз эстрадной музыки и церковного инструмента. Постоянный разговор с создателем. Шедевр.
Квин это был оригинал если знали изначально так как нельзя орган возить с собой это очень и очень накладно
No...frigging...way.
Please...PLEASE tell me that the surviving members of Queen have heard this. This is fantastic.
Just WOW!!! Thank you Xaver for bring organ and Rock together!!!
Bravo!!! Magnifico!!! El señor Mercury este donde este habra sido muy feliz al escucharlo.
That's how glory of God sounds like.
I'm back once again. Absolutely love this. One thing I notice at the end, xaver shrugs his shoulders as if to say "that's the best I could do" that in my opinion is the look of a truly humble artist! You sir are a legend!!
Fantastique ! Here we realize how well Freddie's music holds up! This guy was a genious.
Damn, sent shivers down my spine.. awesome. Xaver can play notes of any kind and make them sound incredible.
Sir Xavier. You are a wonderful player. I love everything you play. 😊 thank you for sharing your talent in using such a mejestic instrument. 😍
Unbelievable nice played, congratulations from Remi from Belgium 👌just perfect !!!!
Amazing!!
I didn’t want the song to end.
This actually brought tears to my eyes. Such a wonderful tribute to what was possibly the greatest musician to ever live.
You know immediately how good that music is. Whatever the style or instrument it is played on. Speechless.
The show must go on and who wants to live forever.
Queen and Xaver.
I’m still alive
Fantastic music, brilliant performance, a gift to the soul, embracing the universe! Xaver the BEST!!!
But like.. how do you practice without everyone in a freaking 15km radius hearing you play on an organ?
Amazing and breathtaking, tears in my eyes, wonderful!
Thank you very much for sharing this
Очень красиво звучит, орган это супер музыка !
I liked that in his last years Mercury used to like more classical than rock/pop....he considered classical much more emotional and profound.
You obviously never listened to the epic albums Queen made. Last years? Lol!
@@TheovdGulik It was disco pop...so what???? He did like disco ( another one bites the dust was his favourite) as well.
But he also said that classical is a SERIUS thing compared to pop/rock, the proof is that he collaborated with Monserrat Caballe , you should learn music history .
@@margix1172 You obviously know jack shit about music, and even less about the work of Mercury and Queen.
Kompromisslos Gut !!!
Der absolute Wahnsinn.... 😍😍😍
Muss sagen, bin jetzt kein grosser Orgel Fan, aber diese Version auf der Orgel ist der Hammer 😁
Brilliant tribute! This performance is breathtaking and outstanding. The Show Must Go On!
goosebumps much.... can't imagine what these lucky people witnessed, my headphones don't do it justice
Fantastic! would ve never imagined, that Queen could sound SO superb on a church organ!! Brilliant!
Wow what a supper supper wonderful performance. In a full house a church in Budapest? Wow!!
simply beautiful , freddie be proud, rest in peace and may gods angels sing your songs
Thank you, Great Spirit of Universe for this breathtaking moments ...
Brilliant performance!
I want this to be played on my funeral, brilliant, magnificent, and a lot of other adjetives I can't think of now because I'm speechless
The passion on Xavers face at 3:36 or so says it all. Sublime artist.
Сильно!!! Я восхищён!!! Super gut
Благодарю Вас,за игру,Xaver Varnus
VERY GOOD I WISH ALL THOSE YOU TUBE PLAYERS WOULD BE AT YOUR LEVEL. I PLAY THIS IN MY CAR VERY LOUD. MARIA HEY JUDE ALSO ON PIPE ORGAN. LOVE THIS SOUND.

That was so moving - it made me cry. Thank you, it was beautiful - I want to hear that when I take my last breath :-)

In my book he would have loved this
To hear his solo masterpiece played
With so much love and elegance
The Organ... Doubtless... the Queen of all instuments.
1:17 goosebumps
Excellent tribute to the god of music FREDDIE MERCURY
Shhh..If you listen hard I can hear Freddie¬s cats purring with delight...
beautifully played Queen - The Show Must Go On!
Les basses sont impressionantes!!
RIP Freddie Mercury 🥺😭
MAGNÍFICO 👏👏👏👏💙🙏
Freddy Mercury starà sorridendo, vicino ai suoi amati gatti. Spero sia felice. Grazie.
A stunning performance! “A monster talent” is correct /
Бесподобно !!! 👏👏👏
A great tribute to the late, great Freddie Mercury. I can imagine him singing along to this.
Listening to this performance,
the dirt and troublesome of the mundane world is washed away
fantastic organist......overwhelming music......
A very proper tribute to the incomparable Mr. Mercury
Well this organ has a really good intonation! one of the best i have heard for a church organ. It has resonance,tone,fullness. Good job of the voicers of the reager organ company
Easily my favourite Queen song on my favourite instrument
Merveille cet instrument que l'orgue qui fait tout et qui le fait bien. Quel artiste que Xaver Varnus. Bravo n'est pas assez fort.
I listened for a minute or two only because I couldn't recognise a tune. Perhaps it got better. I prefer Bach to Queen even though they were a superb band.
What? You don't know this song? It's LITERALLY Freddie Mercury's final bow to the world. His legacy.
😊 the show must go beyond all best blessing ❤
Classic alem...
Freddie would have loved this!
No this is how it will sound in heaven with Freddie singing.
SUPER!!!!
