Who needs an orchestra when you’ve got this?
Ikr (I know, right)? 🙂
I need the orchestra
Yeah, but an orchestra is cheaper!
@@user-xh1lr3yo3y indeed 😂
the organ is way bigger than an orchestra
This is one of the best organ performances of the Danse Macabre that I've ever heard. Truly amazing!
🤔 .....i stand in agreement.
Is it me, or does this piece sound so much more appropriate on the pipe organ. I've loved this piece as a kid and this may be my favorite version.
it's a dramatic sounding song, and this freaking organ gives additional drama to said song. this pleases me.
Saint-Saëns was an organist after all
Totally agree
It's definitely not just you! I'm sure Saint-Saëns would have loved this transcription too.
Few people know this, but orchestras were created in order to emulate the pipe organ. It's the perfect song for an organ.
Gawd! All that was possible with only two hands and two feet!?!? That's jaw-dropping!
😂 I know, right?! Lawd have mercy for real!
I will never take for granted the absolute privilege it is to have this beautiful music brought to my ears. The quality of the video and recording equipment can make you almost feel like you're right there beside Jonathan. Thank you so much both of you for bringing this wonderful music and delivering in a near perfect reproduction. 👍
o_o my face the entire time. I didn't realize how much I need organ music in my life again. The one and only instrument I know how to play.
The only sad thing is that i can give only one thumb up.
EPIC!!! I’m going to blast this from my house on Halloween. Why does this organist specifically play my favorite symphonies, like he knows which particular ones I want to hear? My goodness, this version is amazing, chilling, captivating!! Thank you Mr. Scott!! You nailed it yet again, so precisely.
Heard his Sorcerer's Apprentice yet?
@@JR3714 Oh my gosh, I just saw your comment and went there straight away. Man, Jonathan Scott is some kind of Sorcerer himself! I've never seen anyone play that many songs or symphonies on an organ like that. Who else can do this?! I bet if I gave him a whole Beatles album to play, he could do that too lol! Simply amazing. Bravo to him and his brother on the camera and audio 👍👍
@@abbymartin554 This is not a symphony. Danse Macabre is a Tone Poem.
이렇게 매력적인 곡이라는 걸 조나단 덕분에 이제야 알게되었어요! 오늘 스무번 넘게 듣고있어요 ~ 심심한 감사!
The percussive "chiff" of the stop at 0:35 is absolutely PERFECT for this piece. LOVE this rendition and this instrument.
Eventhough It is " Danse Macabre", It makes me so good and joyful to hear that master piece. Bravo 👏👏👏👏
That instrument certainly has a vast tonal palette!
as do all wind instruments
Amazing virtuosity - I have not head this on the pipe organ before.
Pure magic. Master of registration!
Absolutely brilliant!
Absolutely brilliant!
Wonderful playing as usual Jonathan. The instrument sure has some brilliance to it. Tom the stereo imaging of the audio was grand. Thank you both
for sharing your talents.
this is a very powerful statement for UA-cam - a wonderully created video, thanks a lot for creating and uploading this UA-cam Masterpiece and very big "Thumbs up" for Jonathan Scott.!
That organ has a beautiful tones, and driven expertly :-)
Danse Macabre literally means Dance of Death... it certainly has that spooky tone that lets you imagine a ghostly waltz to go with it. And on the organ, even more so.
O órgão é mesmo o rei dos instrumentos, substitui uma orquestra inteira! Incrível!!!
Never heard this played solely on an organ. I love it!!! Thank you!
Fantastic
Beautiful piece played beautifully.
Extremely good musical organ transcription and perfect performance on an interesting organ architecture - thanks for the video!
fascinating....so fast.... many aspire to play but.... Jon can do!
Beautiful transcription, wonderful playing and what an appropriate organ and hall - it has just the right tone for that piece. Hearing that music played by a mere orchestra will never sound the same now!
Absolute stunning!!! la tua bravura va oltre la conoscenza della musica!!sei un talento UNICO👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love the way he performs this wonderful piece
Wow ! Even more creepy than an orchestra and such amazing playing ! Thank you .
WOW ....Beautiful !!!!!!!! 🤙💖
Fabulous transcription and performance! It works so well on this instrument, too.
Amazing !!!!
wow.... thats amazingly played.
This is what it sounds like when a professional organist makes love to the king of musical instruments!
Beautiful! I'm adding this to my gym music playlist...
This is one of the best Danse Macrabre I’ve listened to!! Spectacular!
Bravo! That is such an exciting musical piece, and a wonderful performance, as always. Thank you so much.
Great music and fantastic organ playing !
Absolute brilliance once again on a familiar, but forgotten piece. Thank you.
My favourite of Saint-Saens
Brilliant performance.
Thank you....
Wonderful! One of my favourites for organ and orchestra.
La maestosità di questo strumento , è ineguagliabile ! Suscita le emozioni più belle, importanti che racchiude l'anima....bravi questi compositori e maestri che sprigionano il massimo dell'estro.....👍👍👍
MARAVILLOSO... SALUDOS DESDE MEXICO...
Are he human?!
Unbelievible!
Gracias, Jonathan, por tu regalo de cada semana. Gracias, Tom. (Juventino Flores, Córdoba, Veracruz, MÉXICO)..
This is just amazing. Thanks so much for all the pleasure you give us! Really appreciated.
Wonderfull playing!🖤
Yeees!!
This music piece sounds amazing on the organ!
Magnifique !
magnifique
It's beautiful, wonderful on the organ! Congratulations!
I really like the layout of the "reversed" keys. The whole tones in black and the half steps in white. Really cool. I haven't seen that before!
BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!! BRAVISSIMO!!!
Completely awesome!
One of my favorites! Thanks for sharing with the world.
WOW... Really enjoyed this great performance!
Magnificent, thank you for sharing such sublime performance
Masterly😊🌷
Thank you. Fascinating performance.
Great rendering, Thank you!!!
Parabéns!!
Thank you very much for this superb piece of music art and fine piece of video so my senses went fully rewarded.
@scottbrothersduo - Just to let you know, there is a typo in one of the stops under the Great division. "Cornet IV-C (T.C.) 8" should read "Cornet IV-V (T.C.) 8". I'm a student of the organ and was struggling to understand why that Cornet stop had a "C" there...haha. :] Thanks for the video!
Fantastic ! After the performance of Olivier Latry of Dance Macabre was removed of youtube, I missed to hear this again. Thank you :)
I'm running a Curse of Strahd D&D campaign right now and I plan to make my players dance with Count Strahd's brides to this. Then later when they fight the brides it'll be a metal version.
Amazing performance!! (as usual.. ;-))
Very wonderful playing of a wonderful transcription by Edwin Lemare.
Perfect 🤩 Bravo 👏🏻
I love this piece of music and hearing it through an organ is amazing. Thanks
First heard it when I was about 9 (60 years ago). I drove me into body swaying crazy then and still does. This rendition creates the same chills. Thanks Scott bros.
Absolutely awesome arrangement of a great work. Made for the organ!
Absolute fantastic performance !
Breathtaking!
Well done. Thank you.
One of my fave pieces. Beautifully done!
¡Maravilloso!
MAGNIFICO!
웅장하고 환상적입니다
You have excelled yourself yet again, Jonathan. Absolutely wonderful. When did you grow the extra fifteen fingers?
Superbe
I was wondering how the organ was going to measure up to the strings coming in at 0:27 I was blown away. Thank you so much for posting.
The fact that this video has one dislike after only being up for 11 minutes is absolutely criminal!!
I would agree, but, the video has been up for seven months now and only has 16 dislikes, as opposed to the 2k likes, which is one of the best like to dislike ratios I've seen
Impressive.
What a fantastic arrangement and performance! Simply astounding, what a fine showcase of the capabilities of a pipe organ
Edit: that transition into the strings(?) around 5:00 is awesome, do I hear the expression pedal being used to mimic the swell of strings?
Ooh, the keys are the colours reversed! That's different! Does it throw you a little at all?
And amazing as always! When we can get back to normal im definitely going to come to one of your concerts!
Nothing throws him! And once you’ve been to a live concert, you’ll never want to miss one - trust me, I know!
In fact the notes being black (or dark brown) and the sharps/flats white was the de facto standard in baroque times on organs and harpsicords.
as i understand this. back in the day, ebony was cheaper and easier to obtain than ivory.
@@redoorn Back in the day? The Hradetzky Organ was built in 1973.
@@daveh3997 yes, back in the day when keyboards were first being crafted like when men wore wigs and codpieces :-)
Honestly sounds like death and clowns to me I have loved this song since i was a kid ah good times I used to dance with my best friends to this we made up the dance as well
SUBLIME....
I need to go for a walk after that......
Jonathan plays and Tom's images dance!
It's giving Dinner-With-Strahd.
hey Jonathan, whats your favorite organ that you have played on?
I wonder the same thing. Either for the sound, the instrument features, or the ambience of the location.
@@alanatolstad4824 I bet he would say it is the Albion Church organ where he regularly plays. Listen to his recording of the last movement of SAINT-SAËNS Organ symphony and you will understand why.
@@andrewgreenwood8554 I looked for one of my views several months ago, of a group of organists around the world that each took a section of a chosen piece, and played it in their respective churches. I was mesmerized. But, the one organ and sound that I enjoyed the most, was THIS one! Whenever I listen to Jonathan playing this piece, my throat closes up!
I was going to ask just this question myself! I think it would be nice if he did a favorite piece on his favorite organ.
@@Excalabur50 I agree!
Sheet music for this arrangement?
Theme tune to the British TV series "Jonathan Creek" (itself now a few years old).
Ever thought recording these songs and putting them on iTunes?
So spooky that the organ stops even pull *themselves* out!
2:22
👻
Optimum!.
2:23
a stop on the left springs out seemingly on its own. is that right? and how and or why?
Preset stop settings can be triggered by either a thumb press or a foot press - at 2:23 thats likely a toe press trigger
Probably a preset piston, where you can preset stop settings and activate them with buttons either on the pedalboard or beneath each manual
The first time I heard this played on the organ was by Ian Tracey in Liverpool. As far as I'm concerned, it is now a piece wasted on an orchestra and the organ version is far superior.
filmed by *THE* Tom Scott?
I was wondering the very same thing
Can interpret this using my own version with the CASIO WK-840 except no foot pedal included...
5:28
"oh you play piano? thats cute."
