  • That's why it's called a march.

  • Roucher is one of the best if not the best organist in South Africa!

  • Dr Phibes!

  • Quite a few wrong notes there...

  • The pedal selection seems a bit to heavy.

  • Absolutely excellent. First class. Most enjoyable to listen to. Thank you and regards from UK.

  • I have loved this piece since I first heard it played on a massive pipe organ in a broadcast when I was age fifteen. I think I sort of adopted it as my "personal theme music," and still so consider it. I have it as the final piece in the script for my sendoff. But it will have to be on video, since there are so few pipe organs that match this South African marvel. Roucher du Toit performs the piece almost perfectly; I have heard it mangled horribly on several occasions.

  • A 'real' organ! And a real organist! This is 'live' at it's best. I have enjoyed this video so much. Thank you.

  • You are the most talented organist I have seen perform. Thankyou. Brilliant to watch. All the bestfrom the U.K.

  • Roucher Du Toit is certainly the most prestigious and best organist in South Africa as well as internationally recognised.

  • At the 6:35 to the end, I noticed the F# pedal appears to be binding to the F.

    This is a masterful performance of Mendelssohn at his most majestic!

  • Now, that's a organ!
