This is one of the Best Versions i have Heard ! Absolutely Perfect//Amazing//Sublime//Mag­nificent Music !!! The bad part is that after hearing this i have to return to the Normal Shit Depressing Life that i have and it feels worse.

@IDidntComeUpWithName

Thanks for your kind comment.

You don't have to be desperate. Firstly you can watch this or any of my other vids every day and secondly, once "Bach" is in your head it will remain there every day ;-)

[JupiterIV]

@toxiconegro Just wondering:

What software do you use to make your vids? I'd like to try the same with some of my own compositions.

[toxiconegro]

@JupiterIV Oh there isn't a special software behind all that, it's actually a lot of work which has to be done manually. If you're interested in it, I will send you a brief description of what I used to do. Cheers

So peaceful~~~

The modulation to C minor is always surprising no matter how many times I hear it.

[trosdejos]

Es de las mejores interpretaciones que he escuchado, tanto por la calidad del organista como del sonido del mismo órgano. me gusta ese sonido. Y añadir las partituras ha sido genial para poder seguir la obra.

Buen trabajo.

Congratulations!!

finally i heard a very good "legato" pedal!

Hi, Daniel. This laptop is driving me nuts! As soon as I move the cursor the textbox vanishes and I have to start all over again! Meant to also mention that the slow movement in the F major concerto is exquisitively beautiful. If life was bereft of all hope this one movment would restore it. It sounded super on the organ, too. I haven't heard the version you mentioned but I have heard one where the organ part is played on a harp. Very effective.

Warm regards,

Neil (resting!)

[moreira7daniel]

@NPorganist But if you would rather not, I think it is perfectly understandable and I hope you feel comfortable about simply saying 'I'd rather not'.

Have you ever listened to the sonata for harpsichord (basso continuo) and recorder of this concerto? It is just as lovely!

Yours as ever,

Daniel

[moreira7daniel]

@NPorganist Thank you very much! You described the concerto with such a precision! It is the one! I love it dearly. There could be no more appropriate adjectives than 'sparkling and brisk' for the last movement! As well as 'lovely and restful' for the first!

I hope you do not mind my suggesting this, but do you think you could give me an e-mail of yours? I do not know a way to do this without exposing it here...

It would be much easier to send you links.

Hallo, Daniel!

Hope you have a nice stay with your parents and other relatives. Using my other daughter's laptop and it's no easier. Give me a 58-note keyboard and 30-note pedalboard any time. Far easier!! I think the Concerto in F you originally mentioned might be the one I sometimes played on the organ. Lovely broad, restful introductory movement, then an allegro, a slow movement then a sparkling brisk fourth movement with some truly memorable passages.

Yours as ever,

Neil.
