[ribarra777]

[musangh]

Great pianist! What his name?

[sweetytep]

Amen !!! you play well sir..God bless you more!

[peavinepanthersgirl]

He is my favorite pianist!!!

[pianoorganSDA]

Bro Hopkins has an amazing talent. he is every bit as good as Anthony Burger was. (I hold the HIGHEST regard for his playing and could listen to him all day) I would like to know why he isn't playing for the Gaithers, I could sit and listen to him all day too. thankyou SO much for sharing. God Bless you in every way.

@pianoorganSDA  This man is very good and is blessed witha gift from god. He is not of the same style as Anthony Burger, as I listen to the dynamics, chord formations and style, it astounds me you make such a comparison. All that said, in a sense, music is not about better or worse, just different, as we all are.

[piano970]

@pianoorganSDA Music is not about better or worse, just different, as we all are. if you play from your heart, then you should know that.

@pianoorganSDA Anthony Burger died on a heartattack during a cruise concert. It was his time to go on. So Gordon Mote filled in for him.

I hope that the church that this young man plays for appreciates his talents. He is awesome and should be appreciated! Some churches take musicians for granted. I know, I am one!

[stevestewart7777]

You are my new favorite musician. Sorry Dan Oxley, you are #2 now.

[christyd3507]

If he's in Lancaster, he must have either went or is going to West Coast Baptist College.

[juniorfirefighter1]

That is absolutely amazing! So glad he is using his gift to praise the Lord!

[LAnn811]
