[scotto40]

Who is your piano tuner... there is no sense in a baldwin grand sounding like that. You are too good to play on a piano that sounds like this one does.

[darylabeniso]

i love your style!!Please teach me??

[garysdeskcom]

Totally awesome!

[mmyersk]

what chord progession are you using?

[piercetheorganist]

Uh...the I-IV-V progression that this, and virtually all hymns, use? Use your ears!

[THEFINALHAZARD]

That is INCREDIBLE! I'd love to hear a longer version, this is TRUELY awesome!

[BBCMtOrab]

Outstanding!!! Now, that's how you play a hymn, son!!!!

[aljadan17]

good thing you're using your talent to play good old hyms! Godbless...

[ddc13120]

You have a wonderful gift.  That was beautiful...and incredible

[Daniel19115]

I want to learn how to play like that.

[piercetheorganist]

That's exactly how it sounds in a good old-fashioned Baptist church here in the South. Loved it!

[kiekie84]

hey i go to a good old indapendant fundamental baptist church right here in tacoma washington! dont need the south to hear it this way i just go to church and there it is .. :) God bless you though

[piercetheorganist]

I think you missed my point -- I was complimenting you on the authentic sound/feeling of your excellent performance. That stride/ragtime rendering is how the old-time gospel hymns are often traditionally played in many of the small old-fashioned country Baptist churches here in the South. It's nice that it's spread past its origins here!

[snetienne07]

do you play by ear or notes, and how can i learn to play like you

[LeftiusMaximus]

wxsarge07; welcome to the family; as the chorus says "He loved me ere I knew him; and all my love is due him he plunged me to Victory beneath the cleansing flood."

[justinmartyr27]

Congratulations wxsarge07, Praise the Lord! This is certainly one of my favorites too.

Excellent playing, caddy!

[wxsarge07]

I will forever treasure this hymn. I got baptized last Sunday, and the congregation sang this one before the Pastor immersed me.  From now on I probably won't be able to sing this one w/o crying...thanks for the post!

[boogster101]

how did you develope that style of playing for that song? how did you figure when going up or down on the piano was good?

[caddyorganist]

One of the pianists in my church growing up played like this. I just listened to her a lot and tried to imitate her and others I've heard. A lot of it is personal preference.

[markpianoman]

Good playing! Wish you had a fine, in-tune instrument to use for your recordings.

[boogster101]

is there by any chance you have the sheet music for that piece

[caddyorganist]

It's in most hymnals.

[boogster101]

does that person play by ear or by sheet music

[caddyorganist]

I play by both.

[LBCrocks]

VICTORY!!

[CHairrell2007]

OMG! Great version of this hymn - it's my fave! :)

[davedunlap06]

This makes me want to learn how to play even more. I am a song leader at my church, and boy do I wished my church had a piano player like that.

[laurenlynell]

i would love to hear i'll fly away from you too. this is the best i have heard anyone play.

[thepianoguy2007]

hey man do you think that you could do i'll fly away? it would be awesome if you could. amazing playing.

[AMTB1992]

Man your crazy! Victory in Jesus is my favorite hymn and your the best i've heard so far. Awesome job!

[gooffbball]

that is awesome, i would love to hear you play i'll fly away

[craig9843]

I love this style of playing. I would love to learn this style someday. Please keep adding more of these old songs.

[Stupak289]

Hey Matt, this is Matt Cooney's brother, Kevin. I am sad that I never actually got to meet you. I love your playing! I love playing hymns! I play for my church.

[WillBravo63]

Camp meetin' on youtube!! Who'da thunk it? :) Truely awesome.

P.S. ditto to the above comments; there're a few blond-haired blue-eyed boys who dig this, too.

[OMM06]

Wow!! Praise the Lord! Blessings.  :-)

[caddyorganist]

Thanks for all the compliments!

[mark371969]

I wish I could do that. I really enjoy you playing. Thanks and God Bless You.

[roadboyIL]

You don't even have to be Christian (I'm not) to enjoy these old standards ... good music well played is a good thing!

[kylemonahan99]

You don't have to be blue-haired to love these old-fashioned, God inspired hymns!

[pzimmer]

all of the blue-haired ladies at my church would absolutely love this!  :)
