HYMN - All Creatures Of Our God & King LIVE (All Saints Day svc) Sine Nomine postlude improv

Recorded on Sunday November 6, 2011 All Saints Day with the cathedral choir and a packed cathedral to sing a very popular final hymn 'All Creatures Of Our God And King' and I also improvise on the opening hymn (which I didn't play), Sine Nomine or as it's better known, "For All The Saints" as the postlude. For all of you critical You Tube arm chair critics with pen and pad in hand to note when someone has missed a note, or used a stop that you don't like, you know who you are, the I don't have a video uploaded myself gang of idiots who MUST offer their unsolicited opinions as though they're effen experts, to you folks imparticular you in some of my other videos have made it a point of scolding me for my timing WHEN I'M NOT LEADING A CONGREGATION OR A CHOIR in those particular videos, especially when my response has consistently been that I play at any speed that I wish ESPECIALLY since it's just me practicing alone and not leading voices. I've had members of that crowd say "Oh, that's not how to lead a choir!" when there isn't a choir there in the video to lead. Well for you assholes, this video is how I lead a choir and/or congregation when I have to, and perhaps this ought to shut you critics up.

@genmama1955 You're welcome and thank you.

@bhigdaddymark Thanks so much for the information. In the past, I have been a page turner for the organist at her church, but I had to pay attention to the manuscript! (She was my piano teacher).

@genmama1955 >>> the keyboards are called Couplers. What they do is couple the different divisions of the organ together on selected keyboards. So if I wanted all of the sounds on the top (fourth) keyboard to play on the second keyboard, I'd engage the coupler that would allow that to happen. Thanks for your question!

@genmama1955 Actually, it was about 8:15 when I started to soften the volume. My left hand was not in the 'shot' (out of view), and I was pressing the buttons you see underneath the keyboards (they're called pistons) in a downward sequence (8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1) in volume so that the organ got softer. Had I pressed the buttons numbered 1-12 (they're called General pistons) in that order, the organ would've progressively increased in volume based on the way I had them set.
