      I would have been thrilled, but we chose Bach's Wachet Auf (Sleepers Awake). On a piano be cause I in my great ignorance thought it would be easier for my sister in law who played it. She would have greatly preferred the organ! As I would have. She forgave me fortunately. 😊 Forgiving myself took a bit longer..... Magnificent piece, and you who chose this chose well indeed!

    On the day before flying home to Canada, my wife and I made a two hour trip to Ripon and another two hours back just to see Ripon Cathedral for ourselves. We knew how unlikely it was, but we had a secret hope that maybe the Scott Brothers would be there!. Even without the Scott Brothers, Ripon Cathedral was an amazing place to visit.

    Beautiful rendition of one of my very favourite organ compositions. It was played at the end of my sister and brother-in-law's wedding at Rochester Cathedral in Jan 1970 as we processed from the quire to the west door. Sadly my sister and I had to take that same walk in September behind my brother-in-law's coffin after his funeral service, on that occasion to a beautiful anthem sung by the cathedral choir. We have heard a couple of far less well played renditions. At the Brighton Dome, the organist must have had a train to catch, and at the funeral of my partner's cousin, the organist made such a hash of it, he actually gave up halfway through - rather embarrassing.

    Wow! This is by far my favourite organ piece and Ripon Cathedral is the first place I ever heard it - probably nearly 50 years ago now at a Ripon Grammar School commemoration service.
    If anyone ever gets chance to visit the Cathedral please do so. It is, in my biased opinion, the finest Cathedral in England. Less flashy than many but if you're interested in Christian History or architecture it is an absolute gem.
    Thank you - this video has made my day.

    Magnificent playing - his fingers, but more dramatically his feet. Big smack to the photographer who spent too much time photographing the interior of the church and the organ pipes, impressive as they are. There are sections of the Toccata where listeners know the base lines are coming. That's where feet need to be shown, and Jonathan Scott lets fly with both feet. Wonderful performance.

    Why oh why does the photographer focus so much on the pipes, windows, walls, roof, and pillars of the church, etc and NOT on the performer all the time? We want to see his work. He plays brilliantly with both fingers and feet, and there's insufficent focus on the latter. Jonathan Scott makes playing look effortlesst even though it couldn't be. When the volume on my little computer is fully turned up, even the loose things in my room vibrate when the pedals are used full blast. Lifts one above the mundane. 😇
