But something I can study for and get to know more.

...Baroque and Renaissance period songs? Something I've grown bored with through the emergence of Classical and romantic Eras.

Magnificent.

@cnmmnc8852 Another side note about this is that the complete Concerto Gregoriano was played with orchestra for the dedication of the Kilgen & Sons organ at St Patrick's Cathedral, New York City with the composer Pietro Alessandro Yon, Music Director & Organist playing the concert. I think he also played it for the Carnegie Hall organ dedication as well.
Yon used to have a sign in his studios that said
"If you have nothing to do, don't do it here."

Fabulous Bish as usual!

Diane is playing her own transcription that I don't believe was published. She talked about writing the transcription at the concert. I was fortunate to be at Coral Ridge when she played this in concert. The pedal credenza was off the charts...

One of the most underrated American 20th Century composers was the Italian American Pietro Yon. In his lifetime, there where complete concerts of his works all over New York, popular with audiences and performers alike. He was at St. Patrick's Cathedral in NYC and before that at St. Francis Xavier on 14th St(When they had an organ/gave a damn) It's a shame most everyone doesn't make it past 'Gesu Bambino'.

Please upload this video again, but with 10dB lower sound level. It is now very distorted.

OMG!!! Unbelievable, Fantastic!!! Thankyou for sharing your gift with us!
What is so great about this is the rhythmic impulse that, once started, never ceases. Despite the many sections with different volume, registration, tempi and mood, she makes the finale into a coherent whole - something that is rarely done these days. Bravo

I have never heard such a long pedal solo with a 32' Bombarde.
Amazing!
