Very beautiful. I can tell you put your heart and soul into playing...I do as well. Playing is therapy for me...Love it.

[Oaktownrob]

Sounds just wonderful!

[Oaktownrob]

Your playing is wonderful!

To me, string celestes are the most beautiful sounds of an organ.  Thanks for sharing this song. It is awesome.

[DSM1G90]

You can always tell the sound of an A-S. G. Donald Harrison knew how to build and voice these organs-being "The American Classic organ".

[Gator092262]

amazing, i love this hymn and i am actually trying to learn it now. this is such a beautiful arrangement of it played to its full capacity on an excellent organ. bravo on excellent arrangement of this piece!

[MrBarryknoll]

Very beutiful I wish you had more Catholic Hymns

[obxemt]

Any day of the millennium, I'll take fine Anglican (or other) hymnody over "Let us build two shacks where my dog can dwell," that other favorite, "On Turkey's Wings," or the 80s classic, "Let us build a burger of God, where our ketchup is turned into mustard." Oh yes, and let's not forget, "Here in this place, the ceiling is leaking, rain on the roof makes for a wet floor."

hahahhaa

[irisdaffodil]

absolutely stunning and I do love this tune.

[digitricks]

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! I wish our church had such a large majestic organ like that!

[Streetcar1743]

PRETTY!!! There is nothing as grand as the sounds of a pipe organ!

[codeman2008]

Do I spy four swell shoes? :)

Ooooooh... I like!

:D

[magpie4321]

This is the one that we sing at Choir! Fabulous!

Not the other English one

[wpbc1945]

Beautiful job. Your registrations and expressions were inspiring. Nothing beats strings and celestes in an organ. Thanks for sharing your gift.

[pipeup1]

Once I get a tune in my head and start improvising its hard to stop is'nt it? I once improvised on Regina Coeli for about 2 hours one Saturday afternoon!!! Its pure escapism

:-)

This one is not as pretty as the one by St. Columba or the Irish verion. I love Irish music!

[mkl62]

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. This past Sunday (April 13) we sang this as the Hymn of the Day. It was the 4th Sunday of Easter & that Sunday is Shepherd Sunday. Our readings are done on a 3-year cycle and the gospel was John 10: 1-10. Just thought I'd share.

[OakmontAesthetics]

I love that tune so much.

[Chesterbarnes1]

Just to play a piece from the hymnal and inprovise is brilliant to say the least, gifted, and Bach would be pleased no doubt.

[djbjr1130]

best improv ever made to this tune.....sounds great on the skinner string organ!

[joeyboi87]

didnt know there was a hymn to that tune...at catholic mass we sing that tune to the words "When we eat this break and drink this wine, we proclaim your death lord Jesus"

[KENinTN1]

That is beautiful ! Where is this organ located ?

[fluteceleste]

It is the Skinner Organ at Old South Church in Boston.

[KENinTN1]

Which denomination ? Are you the organist ?

[contratromba858]

Ken,

It's United Church of Christ (UCC). The organist and Director of Music is Mr. Harry Huff.

[Chesterbarnes1]

I've listen to this arrangement of your at least 15 times. It haunts me because its so lovely. I think you've got something here.

Have you put this music to print? It blesses my soul each time I listen. Please send me a copy?

[Maxxarcade]

Do you have sheetmusic available? I'd like to try it on my organ. I like your arrangement, very smooth and soothing!

[fluteceleste]

sorry I just played it from the hymnal as an improvisation, so I don't have sheetmusic for it

[Chesterbarnes1]

The song "The King Of Lord" is so lovely, its melody flows so softly, and you played it with feeling. Thank God, for you.

[awash2002]

how many stops did you set total?

[awash2002]

What stops did you use in this song?

[fluteceleste]

there is a total of 6 pairs of string celestes at 8 and 4 pitch, which i used in different combinations, in the middle section also with super couplers.

[fluteceleste]

[djbjr1130]
