Kind of a cheesy showpiece, but fun to hear.

@caddyorganist I'd love to hear the orchestra version too. I was lucky enough to go to a concert of Diane's and she performed this piece and described to the audience before it about how she arranged all of the orchestra parts herself for organ. It was one of the most mind blowing pieces I have ever seen an organist perform.

Would love to see this piece live with Bish and the San Francisco Symphony; Davies Hall has a five-manual Ruffatti of its own, similar in size to the Coral Ridge instrument.

WOW!
-
Actually this piece was written for organ and orchestra. I'd love to hear it with orchestra someday!
-
The pedal solo near the end of this piece is absolutely spine tinkling.

Coral Ridge actually has a three manual Diane Bish Signature Series Allen electronic organ as well. There are very few places where this piece can be performed because of the lack of multiple organs. When this piece was written, there would have been even fewer venues because you couldn't bring in an electronic organ when it didn't exist yet.

I wish I was that gifted as an organist! Diane, can you give me what talent is in you little finger? I'd be honored!!!! :)
Anyone know when this was? What year? The electronic sounds very good

One organ was rented from the Rodgers Electronic Organ Company for the concert, and the other organ is the Ruffatti organ of the church.
