  • The piano is not necessary.

  • The pipe organ is the king of all instrements, therefore it is only right for it to be loud. It is meant to drowned out any singers and to echo through the church and rumble and nearly collape the church to the ground and leave the audience hanging with their mouthes open, just as it does in this song.

  • Amazing! Xaver Varnus is a bit extravagant, but great musician! Combining organ with piano is very rare, but beautiful, also is a joy to hear so inspiring new setting as is in 3rd and 4th verse. Great job and beutiful music. I love loud pipe organ music with singing.

  • The soloist is awesome, but the piano is definitely not needed. The organ setting is horrible, also. It sounds like some out of tune whistle in the background. What a shame. It would have been so much more beautiful without that "racket." What was the organist thinking (or was he even thinking)?

  • why do you need a piano to play with the organ?

  • Thats right.. or people should praise God nice and loud... Piano not required..Whose idea was it? Strings and brass is ok...

  • That is a crazy harmonization in the 3rd verse, the rest of my day is going to be spent figuring it out! Love it!

  • Clearly the organ is the senior partner in this collaboration of instruments but the piano scoring does indeed add very positively and enables the inclusion of a timbre not possible with the organ alone. Organ with piano and full orchestra would be even better but those treats are few and far between.

  •  A todos les deseo una Feliz y Santa Navidad del Señor.

    Je vous souhaite un heureux et saint Noël du Seigneur.

    Auguro a tutti voi un felice e Santo Natale del Signore.

    Ich wünsche Ihnen allen ein frohes und Heiligen Geburt des Herrn.

  • You have a beautiful organ, what in hell do you need a piano for?!?

  • @4902STEVEN

    in this case, really not necessary!

  • @4902STEVEN certainly , the piano was not necessary... but give at the melody a fantastic sound ...
