That was beautiful. Any chance you could record "The Lion's Royal March"?

You played it magnificently, it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. THANK YOU.

@thetejbzman Yes, organs have a keyboard for the feet.

So much of this organ music is recorded with poor audio equipment, leading to noise in the background. I really wanna listen to this cleanly :(

@anonymous4698 Interesting. I listened to it again, with good headphones. I believe the noise you refer are the organ blowers. They're very quiet, but not inaudible, even in person. If you're in Williamsburg, stop by and I'll play it for you :)

Norman - you are just superb! Thank you for sharing this with us... I actually listened to this 3 times in a row: once concentrating on your hands and feet in relation to the music sheet; once with my eyes closed and my headphones on (Recording studio quality), and once again because I caught myself holding my breath in your phrasing and then gently exhaling in pure joy!
Could I ask the names of the voices/stops you've used from the topmost keyboard and going down each level? Thanks again! :)

@needmorebeads Glad you enjoyed it. It's a mix of flutes. The top manual (swell) is a stopped diapason 8' and harmonic flute 4'. The bottom two manuals are coupled together, so my hands don't get tangled trying to play the same keyboard. It's a flute celeste 8' and a koppel flute 4'. The pedal is a soft 8' lieblich gedeckt. Unfortunately the pedal part isn't visible in the video, but it's a double part; that is, the left foot is playing to low rumble, the right foot playing the upper tone.

How did you do that ??

@Lineallly Practice :). For some reason, the video + audio are slightly out of sync in places. Next time I play this I'll get a better recording. Glad you enjoyed it.
