Brilliant performance. A slight clarification: Mr. Jacobs, I believe you’re the first solo organist to win a Grammy. E. Power Biggs won a Grammy in 1969 in the chamber music category for his “Glory of Gabrieli: Vol. II” album, together with the Edward Tarr Brass Ensemble.

My wife and I left the church to this piece after our marriage nearly 53 years ago in Clapham, London. After having found the story of “Hazel” on KZread I found this wonderful rendition, I have honestly got to say this version and knowing the story behind the organ makes it really special for me, Fantastic!,

I'm well familiar with the organ and all the hype as it (she) exists very close to my home. I get it, this instrument literally has all the bells and whistles! But it is nice to hear something familiar like this tune, instead of a strange cacophony.

I've been listening this piece for many years now and it is a shame I've discovered Paul Jacobs so far in my journey! Great work, this is my favorite interpretation of this piece and for sure best audio and video quality on KZread

Dear Mr. Jacobs, for many years, there was a BACH präludium (in C ?) avaliable, which you performed in the times of Christ(al) Cathedral. Is it possible, to get this version somewhere ?

When seeing his feet dancing at the pedals I keep thinking of the possibly apocryphal story about how a contemporary of Bach was so incensed at the fact that some rich man wanted to give Bach a gold ring for each of Bach's fingers after a particularly grand performance, the fellow said: "DON'T FORGET HIS FEET!"

That moment when some of those knobs (?) suddenly pop up and I have to rewind the video just to make sure my eyes did not deceive me.

I think you mean the stops. The organist can control it, and add more or remove some, to change the sound of the organ.

I’m hooked on this interpretation or rendition. I’ve been playing it almost nonstop. It’s the best I’ve found so far. It was actually video game music that got me here. 😊 Bach’s music is quite the hit and a huge compositional inspiration in the gaming circle. A lot of games feature his pieces. “Little” Fugue is the final boss music in 𝘔𝘦𝘨𝘢 𝘔𝘢𝘯 𝘓𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴. I had Paul’s performance aired on a weekly video game music show broadcast by a college radio station. I’m a huge fan of video game music, mainly because I’m a musician-a classically trained pianist who secretly wants to be an organist. 😁

Lovely. Nice Romantic, late nineteenth-century interpretation of this marvellous work.
Absolutely in awe of your performance! Truth be told Dr. Jacobs, I haven't heard your name before, and having watched this video, I feel as though I've been living under a rock!! I happened to find it as I was looking at the concert schedule for Coral Ridge Pres. Church in Fort Lauderdale FL and saw that you are doing the Organ Rededication concert! So I figured I better look you up and I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised! I'm a huge fan of Diane Bish, I've been watching her videos and television program for years and have heard her play this many times. This performance of Widor's Toccata is hands down one of the best up there with Diane and Virgil Fox (in my opinion of course). I can't wait to see you post more videos here and I certainly can't wait to see you in concert at Coral Ridge! That concert will actually be my first time ever hearing that organ in person so I'm very much looking forward to see you perform on that amazing instrument!

Paul, are there any plans to release the full video recording you did of the Bach Cantata 29 that was used as sort of a backing track to another video where you spoke about Hazel's restoration and how shes at her "high point" ? I FREQUENTLY go back and listen to the rather legendary video of you playing this same piece, for thw Hour of Power, with Bob Schuller seinor, and in Hazels former incarnation. It would be AMAZING to be able to listen to both videos in their entirety, to compare the 2 different Hazels, side by side.
