Mark, This thing is only an organ in name. It has no pipes and sounds like a glorified theatr organs. Were that not bad enough, the On Off tremulant....If you want to see "Truely Special" people see Alexander Malofev or Ivan Bessonov. They too are 16 years old and prforming on world famous stages. Regards, killing - who is he killing. If he is killing people why is he being to promoted. This is theater organ style playing. Let's hear the Guilmant's Sonata #1. or Franck's A minor Choral.

Chas is from the same hometown as Mildred Hoskins Tatum, mother of Art Tatum, perhaps the greatest improvising pianist who ever lived. There’s something great in those genes from that area.

The thing I appreciate most about this young man is his love and respect for God first, ministry, his Parents, the ones that cultivated his skills and lastly his God-given ability. His humility and spirit of excellence is phenomenal and I appreciate a young musician with class, especially those that still play in suits. I'm a female drummer and I grew up playing in dresses and heals as a kid, I worshipped on those drums and I played with all my heart. I never expected a dime, I was just thankful, I never had a formal lesson, I just sat listened and watched, and then I played. God bless this young man and the furtherance of his gifted ministry!

everything he was asked to do, he knocked it out of the park. That man is awesome. This is what musical genius looks like.

Having been an organist for over 60 years, I can tell you that the very best inspiration comes from listening to other artists. And trust me, you'll always have something more to learn, and that for me was always the exciting part. Give a listen to Corey Henry or Jacob Collier or Yohan Kim. Young guys with amazing talent.

Ran across this video and I had to DJ an event in this same room room when this was over!!! I’m remembered them braking the organ down and everything!! Great job young man!!! Hymns will get you paid as professional Gospel musician.

Thanks for sharing, this young man is phenomenal, and well versed in his music. However, I must say that it’s a shame that more churches do not recognize or appreciate GOOD, HUMBLE on time musicians in many of our black churches. When this young man becomes more mature, I pray and hope that he will teach and instruct other young musicians that are starting out. Churches need good musicians like this young man. Lastly, don’t let anyone exploit your God given talent. Love the interview, keep up the great work.
