  • It is very often said that the people of Nord are cold and emotionless. Listening you, Sir, i disagree again and more poverfull such stupid idea. You are playing in such a ...warm way, fantastic.

    Can you say something about this organ, please?

    From Finland i know only some image with the instrument from the Finlandia Hall.

    My deepest respect!

  • Veramente eccezionale, straordinaria interpretazione.

  • Magnifique , Merci Bach , Merci DIEU

  • Fantastic interpretation - much more"bite" than most of the other organ versions I've heard. But it's sounding a semitone higher on my computer. One or two other videos of this piece do as well.Others sound at the correct pitch, while at least one is considerably lower. Now,I know that old organs vary in their pitch from city to city, sometimes by as much as a third, but this doesn't look like an old organ. Is it the organ or the processing of the audio which is causing this?

  • Thank you for these 8 minutes 34 seconds. Each of them wonderful.

  • Well, - I'm not religious, but... - this sounds like God is talking to mankind.

    Thank you so much, Martti.

    I'd get tears in my eyes....

  • @squigglycircle Thanks for the information. The sound of this organ is magisterial; clear and authoritative.
