This video is legendary. This is not due to the great recording quality, but simply because the comments and actions of the two gentlemen next to the organist are simply an expression of the joy about this brilliant piece and the fantastic realisation by the organist. Great! This is how music must be.

The recording qualilty may be not that great, but what stuns me most is to really hear as the organ sounds, the keyboard, the barker machine, the raw sound of the pipes when resonance kicks in, the reverb and all the other 'parasitic' sound this instrument makes. Beside that, the performce of the artist is great. I can't stop listening to it.

I See it differently, sorry. I have the greatest respekt for Daniel Roth, but in my opinion he should not sing. As an organist myself I found this always annoying when my teacher started to sing. It does not help with intonation, nor with tempo. He can show this afterwards in the discussion. But congrats to Aaron for the great performance!!

How I love this organ and Daniel Roth.. a man absorbed completely into the organ music!!!

I never tire of hearing this young man perform! Such command is rare for a person of his young age! Merci mille fois....!

Superbe pièce ,la gentillesse et l'humilité de M.Roth et le plaisir qu'il éprouve à l'écoute de ce tout jeune organiste,merci !

Well done whoever organised this for these young organists. When I was their age, I was part of a group that had the opportunity to play the college organs in Oxford University under the guidance of their Organ Scholars. Days like that are game changers for young musicians; they blast your horizons wide open and give you a glimpse of where music can take you. Bravo to all concerned.

Amazing, fantastic piece. The composer ingeniously puts commonplace, trivial panels together and turns them into a great composition. This is what Boelmann failed to do in the last movement of the Gothic suite.
