Franz Liszt - Fantasy and Fugue on "Ad nos" (excerpt)

[DavidSnyderLumierist]

Kio, you have captured the essence of Franz Liszt. He was possibly the most mulitfacited composer,deep, brooding and inspired, transendental almost to be divine. The last time I enjoyed hearing this great composition it was performed by Dr. Virgil Fox with whom I worked for 17 years. Your memorization of this is a testiment to your sincerity and a tribute to your great talent and a challenge to other concert organists. I'll be watching you closely young man!

He is playing from memory, what a wonderful gift.

What a mastery! Great use of harmonies and counterpoint by Liszt and brilliant technique and interpretation by the organist. I love Liszt's organ works!

Very accurate playing although it seems a little too mathematical. When a monumental piece such as the Ad Nos doesn't even sound impressive, there is a problem.

Totally agree - even if the organ sounds a very "strong" and not too impressive, the play should be much more flexible and.. let's say "romantic"

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing.

A great piece!

I love the dark and moody beginning!
