@oferbenavraham1967 the most widely known and one of my favs is Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor by Bach. if you look it up, look for the 8 and a half minute version cause that's the real version
great recording. beautiful variation in stops and timbres. also, the "tutti" bits carry the same depth, richness of a full orchestra but maintains precision and rhythmic drive!
wow, I've never really been exposed to an organ before so I'd best see it live before I say anything but it feels (at least when listening to it in recording) that the bass is a bit thunderous for my taste. nevertheless, an excellent recording.
@ToulBoi This is recorded on the organ of Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, the largest organ in the British Isles, and second largest in Europe, with 10,268 pipes. The Pedal department is huge, with several 32' stops and a 64 foot resultant bass.
@ds1868 Haha. I was wondering why it was so powerful! It's an incredible sound, I'm just not used to it, that's all. I need to see one live to really accustom myself to the tone.
What the fuck are you on about you loon? It used to make video and sound a little bit sharper during the testing days of Youtube HD. Doesn't really do much now-a-days, Its just a Hi Def trigger on the url. Get out of here you troll.
@Ryoko54 I see that they are monkeying with your medication again, honey. Hope they eventually can get it right. Perhaps someone should stow the laptop away until such occurs. Seeya, Snookums!
@CarltonR55 Yo no offense but that was a really idiotic statement. By adding '&fmt=18' to the end of the URL, you are enhancing the music by increasing the quality of the sound (ie from 128 kbps to 256 kbps, just an example). ARFRC was not attempting to rob anyone or send them viruses...
And why did you rip on Angus? As far as I know, HE was the one who UPLOADED this piece for you to listen to... If you're going to accuse someone of something, please try to make sense when doing so.
@eh4891 savingangel is quite correct in saying that it is Liverpool Cathedral. though in answer to your question in more detail, the organ pictured in the video is not of the organ cases at Liverpool, rather that of an organ somewhere in the Netherlands.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece from Handle, this morning, it is ever so meaningful, as I am joining a new church today, after a very long asbsence.
Really nice piece. Here is another tip: at the end of the web address of this video, type in &fmt=18 at the end of the url and simply press enter or click go and the music is enhanced.
I am playing this for my daughter's wedding recessional. I might cry, but I will Handel it.

How is the music "enhanced," ARFRC and angus? By letting them listen to the sound of the cash being sucked out of their credit cards?
By hearing their hard drives grind to a locked halt?
Sorry to see that beautiful music attracts snakes like you.

More like 7. Good acoustics make a good organ great; bad acoustics make a great organ lousy. This organ is magnificent.
