  • How long did it take you to learn this? Very nice playing by the way.

  • About 2 Months to get t this clean. It was still not perfect though... Thank you for your comments!

  • Only heels is definitely the way to go on this piece. It adds an element of suprise to the performance.

  • You think your funny don't you!

  • Se oye muy bien, sobre todo me parece que la interpretación es fluida y clara con una calidad tan alta como la de Ton Koopman.

  • Thank you very much!

  • Very good!!, but very fast...

  • My thoughts on that are, it's titled: "Sleepers Awake." not "Sleepers Go Back To Sleep."  But that is just my opinion. So, I prefer the quick tempo.

  • awesome, very precise, and at an impressive tempo

  • Your organ sounds pretty good. I wish the Allen at my church sounded that nice. I love the fact that you use a tuning besides the boring old washed up a=440 Equal Temperament that is everywhere you go!

    To all musicians: When EVERYTHING is in a=440 Equal Temperament, it gets boring.

  • I agree you went too fast. This is a Tenor sectional solo from the cantata and if we sang that fast we'd need oxygen therapy afterward.

  • @clcoolness79 i agree. youve overpracticed the song i think. far too quick

  • that is to fast

  • I think this is the merry-go-round version. The horses better have seat belts, maybe barf bags too.

  • Slow down your tempo.

  • This hymn begins "wake awake, for night is flying!" Therefore, it should be played with some urgency.

  • Great

  • I like the tempo; it makes a change to the other versions.
