This is absolutely fantastic! I have sung the Meistersinger many times on the opera stage, but the organ version is really great. And played so well. Thank you very much and best regards from Germany!
Bravo, Scott! 👏👏👏 I am so happy to have discovered your thrilling performance of this magnificent music. Your playing is superb, and the recording quality is first rate. Thank you for sharing your video with us!
These are turn-of-the-century (20th that is) transcriptions by E.H. Lemare, published by Schott, unavailable for decades, and revived by Wayne Leopould...and now out of print once again. It takes an Olympic-caliber performer to play them, Scott is surely that (along with being one of the most wholesome men in the craft). Perfect music, instrument, and artist! Five Stars.
Not out of print. Google this: Lemare, Edwin H - The Organ Music of Edwin Lemare, Ser. II, Vol. 4, Wagner (Die Meistersinger, Tristan und Isolde, Misc.)
My intro to Scott was a solo performance at his commencement from WCC of the Durufle' Op. 7. Then in Millburn, NJ playing a larger Brahms work...all wonderful.
Outstanding! The piece sounds altogether at home on the organ instead of contrived. Wonderful phrasing and articulation. The organ is stunning. Thanks!
Very fine interpretation (from what I can tell - I yet have to get to know this overture in either its original orchestral incarnation {especially relative to the opera whence it comes} or the organ version featured here - who's the arranger?) of a piece that apparently translates well to the organ - and all this on the largest organ Casavant Frères (St. Hyacinthe, Québec, Canada) has yet ever built.
For the transcription, Google this: "Lemare, Edwin H - The Organ Music of Edwin Lemare, Ser. II, Vol. 4, Wagner (Die Meistersinger, Tristan und Isolde, Misc.) "
On the one hand, it's strange that something this excellent should have happened in Texas. On the other hand, Wagner played on a pipe organ in Texas makes perfect sense.

I love that dazzling counterpoint of this overture. It's a very good idea to play it on organ.
Bravo!!!!
One thousand times B R A V O!!!
You are great... Really great!
In case anyone hasn't told you lately, you're awesome Scott Dettra!
Kemped Kemp o.
This brings me back the good times when I was playing this in my ocestra🥹
Splendid performance - magnificent!
This sounds lovely on the organ!
Oh what a glorious performance on a wonderful organ. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Brilliant playing and the instrument sounds beautiful! Thank you, Scott!
Super! I wish I could find more Wagner pieces by him.

Sensational playing. Bravo!

Ah thanks, was just wondering

@@James_Bowie...I am not speaking about the source you mentioned; just the two I mentioned.
Awesome. Beautiful. Made my day.
One of my favorite organists and much missed in Washington DC

That was amazing!

He plays this one very well.
Wonderful!
I'm puzzled- I remember even Casavant saying the room was acoustically dry. SO I guess they "sweetened" the sound with reverb. Nice playing!
Thank You Sir!
My wife and I chose this as a recessional piece at our our wedding.
How much did you pay the organist? How did you find one who can play this?
@@WinrichNaujoks We were students together at The Royal Academy of Music, London, so nada. He was a professional organist and harpsichordist.
Excellent! But please place mics away from console .. too much stop noise. Best recording I've heard of this organ.
¡Magnífico¡
For the transcription, Google this: "Lemare, Edwin H - The Organ Music of Edwin Lemare, Ser. II, Vol. 4, Wagner (Die Meistersinger, Tristan und Isolde, Misc.) "
Played with an intensity that would impress Wagner.
Great recording! Who built this organ?
What arranging do you use?
Excellent preformance. Who's transcription is this?
Seems to be Edwin Lemare´s
@@profeluisegarcia yes...at one time impossible to locate, until Wayne Leupold revised the scores
When was this organ transcription written and who wrote it, please?
Google this: "Lemare, Edwin H - The Organ Music of Edwin Lemare, Ser. II, Vol. 4, Wagner (Die Meistersinger, Tristan und Isolde, Misc.) "
@@James_Bowie Merci !
Fantastic! What a riot!
Wagner must have been familiar with A Midsummer Night's Dream by Mendelssohn. Just saying😅
Coincidentally, the climax of Dies Meistersinger happened to take place on mid-summer's day!
Nice playing🥹
