Great job! Just wondering why there's two rows on couples?

@organfinatic04 The top row is home to three prepared divisions.

Hello there, may I ask from what score are you playing from? I ordered the ''Diane Bish organ book volume 1'' and this piece has a whole added 2 pages before it gets to the f and c chord ''simile'' and i was rather disappointed that the amazing trompette call and response isnt here.

[caddyorganist]

@happyplayeruk I have it in as a single piece of music and also in the book The Very Best of Diane Bish.

Great performance.

[caddyorganist]

Thanks!

I have a question! Where did you get the music for this piece?

[RampGuy1]

What key is this piece in? I've seen Diane's YouTube and there is better view of the keyboard. It looks as if it is in the key of F.

[caddyorganist]

It starts in F but moves around. It ends in D

[tduser1]

I love the Diane Bish version. It gets into the song more than the traditional. You really are a good organist!!

[caddyorganist]

Thanks!

This organ definitely sounds like a Casavant! Great job on a fantastic arrangement of a great hymn!

[caddyorganist]

Thanks! I love the organ. I wish I played it every Sunday instead of my church's Estey!

Thanks!

Do you know who makes this organ by any chance? I'm guessing it's either an M.P. Moller or Ruffati...

Anyhow, this organ sounds great! Well played! However, I prefer this hymn played the traditional way. Loved the BIG ending though! BRAVO!

[caddyorganist]

It's a Moller rebuilt by Casavant I believe. I love it!

For the chamadephrases from 1:47 on I would really do that more staccato by the way.

[Sesquiltera]

OH WOW! The Diane Bish version! Very nice!!!!
