This arrangement, for organ and harp only, creates an unmistakable aura of beauty and serenity. I recorded this on the large Létourneau organ at the Cathedral of Christ the Light in Oakland, and I'm joined by my great friend and colleague, Stephen Main, on harp.

This is a transcription I made, for solo organ, of Skoryk's famous piece, beloved by Ukrainians, entitled "Melody: for string orchestra." If you wish to have a pdf of this transcription, I'm happy to share it. Please contact me through my website: www.jonathandimmock.com

This is a meditation for America in 2021

In honor of Arbor Day 2021 (April 30), and because I love trees and love this music, this video was made on the Hauptwerk organ which plays the sounds from the Laurenskerk in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

Continuing the "Orgelbüchlein" series, Jonathan Dimmock plays Bach's sublime masterwork for Lent.

Jonathan Dimmock - piano improvisation

Orgelbüchlein Lenten setting, "O Lamm Gottes" employs two musical devices: a canon at the 5th (between the pedal and the alto), and the extensive use of the sighing motif.

This "Orgelbüchlein" chorale prelude, only a minute and a half in length, is a canon between the soprano and bass lines, with imitative counterpoint in the alto and the Cantus firmus in the tenor. The text of the chorale (the German "Agnus Dei") uses two devices: Christ carrying the weight of the world's sin, and the human response of humility. The affect of Bach's gentle piece is that of weigh...

J. S. Bach's beautiful Lenten chorale prelude, "Da Jesus an dem Kreuze stund" is played by organist Jonathan Dimmock.

Meditation has been my passion for 45 years; photography has been my passion for 50 years. Music has been my passion and chief muse for 60 years; and improvisation has been my passion for 40 years. I combine all four of these passions into a new series which I call "Minute of Meditation."

J. S. Bach's quintessential musical statement about the CANON, this piece was written as a showpiece to join Mizler's Music Society in 1747 (as its 14th member). Jonathan Dimmock plays the version Bach published subsequently (1749?), which alters the order of the five variations.
