[ukzug]

Genial einfach sehr gut

[theremin137]

WOW. What a performance! What is this young lady's name, and where is she playing now? I'd love to be able to hear her in person. Thanks very much for this video.

[Groezy]

Karen Christianson, still in school!

[iandavidhenderson]

I am totally blown away by this stunning performance of the Gigout. Thank you for this glorious posting.

[davewvu1]

Biggs is back, and in the talented fingers of this beautiful young lady! A truly FLAWLESS performance!!!!

[WoodyofmC]

<--- Just stunned... can't speak... :-O

You already have at least trice the talent that I always longed to have -- since I was 6 and before I got 30... :-/ Keep up the really great work!

[johnandpatvermeulen]

You can come and play in our church any time.Learn from the best use your imagination,and take what God has given you and run with it because he will make your fingers do things you never thought was posable, Gods speed....

[Lindasingerbell]

Amazing! Since she is just in PA, she should compete in the Albert Schweitzer Organ Festival when she becomes a high school student!

[34Bach]

Das ist super!!

[SphinxFriend]

Sounds great, just the style music I love.

[MrBarryknoll]

What a wonderful organist you are

[ThePipeorganman]

damn your good.

[baptistelajoie]

Excellent. She offered herself, deeply, to the piece, accepting to be swallowed by it, with an energy that only childs have.

I have a dream: to see her playing that toccata in Paris, more specifically on the Cavaillé organ in Saint Augustin church, the one on which Gigoult wrote this piece, because,as far as I saw, this sweetie was limited by the character of the organ itself...

She deserves the better instruments in the world, because she his skilled enough to control them!

[tamiasthechipmunk]

Spectacular esp. at such a young age. Keep that kind of talent up and she will definitely go places in the organ world and music in general.

[wljmrbill]

What a talent. I have never had a student as talented as you are for such young age. God has truely Blessed you.. Keep it up..

[christusvincit]

She's only ten??? No freakin' way!!!

Keep up the great work! You have a very bright future, young lady.

As an organist with a world title, I must say: W-O-W! At ten, this is amazing. I'm almost 25 and still trying to master this song all the way through at the correct speed.

[Totennebel]

She's great.

What's her name?

[KeeperOfTheWord]

Still in Philly? Checked out the Curtis Institute of Music?

[silverman1955]

Bravissimo!

[1pianodude50]

Incredible job...Virgil is smiling down from heaven!

[cjbusboi]

unbelieveable! Don't stop young lady! Move over Diane

[virginiaorganbuilder]

Hope for the future! Keep playing, and show all your friends how awesome the organ can be! Let's see some more videos from you!!

[32pedalnotes]

You go girl!!! Masterfully done! Bravo!

[organEd]

Wow! Phenomenal talent. Her pedal technique is strong - this is a difficult piece.

[scorpyonn]

phenomenal talent!

[slutissime]

I'm really fan.

Magnifique, vraiment, tu assures. Tu iras loin dans la vie, continue !

[slutissime]

Very amazing ... O_O

[latribe]

WOW! WOW! WOW! Keep playing! Really amazing and a great encouragement to hear.

And if you come to England please do a recital at Hammerwood Park - the organ is big and getting better - see the video "Pulling all the stops out - camera can't cope", and we are trying to encourage better appreciation of the organ as an instrument and its fantastically exhiliarating repertoire.

[klodg]

Et Gigout d'être surement heureux de l'entendre !!

[dc0399]

La jeune interprète maîtrise étonamment bien l'instrument et possède déjà un jeu d'une grande sensibilité. A chaque écoute, l'émotion est au rendez-vous ... K. tu es une très grande artiste !

[miltonabbey1]

Impressive! I would have thought there are several Cathedral Organists who would be delighted to give you some opportunities to play should you cross over to visit the UK

[ftvelasco]

Karen, I echo all of the wonderful comments others have posted. You are remarkably gifted. I look forward to listening to your future recordings and hope that some day I will have an opportunity to attend a live performance.

[LadyofMetal16]

Really really cool. Yours is the best on Youtube I've seen so far...and you're only 10! Well now I congratulate you!

[bachorg]

Sono senza parole...E' la migliore esecuzione della Toccata di Gigout che abbia mai sentito...Che Dio ti benedica.

[klodg]

C'est la meilleure version Américaine que j'ai entendu et vu. Une fillette de 10 ans ! Je vous encourage à continuer. Vous irez loin. Vous maîtrisez bien l'instrument. Bravo !

[gedeck4foot]

very very Good not an easy pice.

[rauschquint]

This is my favorite of all of Eugene Gigout's works (with Grande Chouer Dialogue a close second). Your playing is excellent!

[madtam]

Awesome. Prodgiy indeed. It's amazing she can reach the pedals at age 10.

[jackforst060981]

WoW!!

[KB7777777]
