This man really just did the work of an entire orchestra all by himself
Well, THAT IS what this instrument for.
That's what organists do
@@danieler8410 Guys I know, I've played the organ at different churches for years now. I was just commenting on how impressive it is, especially at this level. I could never dream of playing a piece with that much complexity
@@gen-zhippie2203 He did a truly grand job.
You got that right😦
I’ve watched this performance many times as I’m a BIG Mozart fan, and each time I am more dazzled by Jon’s talent and mastery of the organ. WOW and double wow!
0:40 What an epic glissando on pedal
Like ice skating.... he is dancing .... no caressing the pedals... 👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🇨🇭
Wenn Mozart noch leben würde und sein Werk an dieser Orgel von Jonathan vorgetragen erleben könnte, so würde ihm die Perücke vom Kopf fliegen. Und das nicht nur einmal. Bravissimo und unendlichen Respekt Jonathan für Dein unsagbares Können und rastloses Schaffen.
< würde ihm die Perücke vom Kopf fliegen > Ha!
He is playing a whole orchestra with two hands. Beautiful!
and two feet
Two hands, yes, but don't forget his flashing feet. :-)
He also has toe studs that change registrations without using the hands.
The genius of the Scott Brothers isn't limited to Jonathan Scott's outstanding command of the keyboards. It includes the choice of great instruments on which to perform, the arrangement of the piece including the choice of organ stops and outstanding sound recording of a hard-to-capture instrument in a difficult acoustic environment. The brothers excel at all aspects of capturing phenomenal performances and preserving them for the ages. Thank you for your gift!
❤
Wow, I can't even begin to imagine what that music looks like on paper
"Too many notes" hahaha
there's a link to it in the description if you want to see it...
Black and white? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 😜👍🇨🇭
If I'm not mistaking, Jonathan doesn't even use tablature for this performance. Too fast to read probably haha
The actual song paper is rather... underwhelming... if you play the piano only
My favorite opera overture played on my favorite musical instrument.
Coincidence 🧐
Who would have ever figured this overture on an organ? I think Mozart would have been impressed.
Victoria Ballard I would love to bring Mozart to that hall, it would look like the moon to him, then the music would surprise him & I’m absolutely sure that he would be delighted!
@@chrishoo2 Or even better, bring Bach to Boardwalk Hall and sit him down at the console of the 33,000 pipe Midmer-Losh organ!
A very gifted musician. The world really needs more of them!
it shocks that some people put dislike to this fine art. they are obviously ignorant
Ars non habet inimicum nisi ignorantem
No, they just have their own opinion, to which they are entitled without being insulted.
@@stonefireice6058 If they're entitled to disparage this video, the OP is entitled to disparage them.
@@stonefireice6058 yes, they have the right of being stupid!
Just dumb people !
I'm absolutely blown away. What a brillant musician. How much effort of many years must it has been, to come to this level. With this perfect technik, performed with extraordinary passion, he cherished the hymn of genius Mozart in a special and wonderful way. And in heaven, Wolfgang smiles and makes a bow for Jonathans talent.
The music of one musical genius, played by another.
Wonderful performance.
On an instrument built by a genius.
@@tomtommyl805 : it doesn't sound anything like it.
Mario I hear every note just find. Develop your ear for organ and it’ll adapt.
And there are no dampers on the organ.
Prachtig orgel en een zee r goede organis. Bij mij is er veel geruis bij, helaas
Perfection is the standard we've come to expect from Jonathan Scott, and this is no exception. Tom's skilful filming gives us a bird's eye view of what goes into delivering such a performance.
How amazing to hear a piece that was written for a full orchestra played with such the same full sound by only ten fingers and two feet!!!
Never heard this on organ before. *applause*
Too bad the house is empty for this one, he would have gotten a long, standing ovation for that great performance.
Would love to see him live
You're right
OTOH, the acoustics are probably better without all that sound-damping padding in the seats. :)

This is powerful!! I absolutely love it! Mozart would be very proud.
Yeah
This fantastic "Classic Smooth 🎼 Musical !
This familiar masterpiece is comfortable to the ears and the mind due to his splendid performance
If Johnathan Scott isn’t the best organist ever then I don’t know who is💯💯
A very talented musician playing the work of one of the greatest composers ever. Nice!
It blows my mind knowing that a single human being is capable of playing something as complex as this.
Just practice, and you can do it.
Epic performance and great transcription. My wife and I had this as the recessional at our wedding!
Bravo, another stunning performance by Jonathan Scott.
I want to stand up and cheer! Thank You!
A M A Z I N G ! It's so impressive. A showcase in dexterity and technical playing, but still with so much emotion. How wonderful dynamics in this organ!
No one controls the organ better than Jonathan Scott.
Yes yes, Scott ATLANT yes.
/J ol Jinpingin Jisis.
I am no musician...at school I struggled with the recorder.But I watch this man and I am in absolute awe of his genius.
This is phenomenal!!
Absolutely perfect
Just "Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
One of my most favourite pieces of music played to perfection.
watch this performance every day amazing very talented
Unglaublich gut - ganz herzlichen Dank!
How do You recognize a master? A master makes even the most challenging ad difficult pieces look effortless. This is a prime example. Bravo!
Einfach großartig, kaum zu übertreffen
There is only one volume at which this can be listened to properly to be fully appreciated, and that is loud. With the bass turned up and feel it reverberating, you feel as if you are in the hall itself! This was a truly magnificent performance!
Living in an apartment I cannot bring up the volume. Recently invested in some Sony Bluetooth noise cancelling headphones. This has opened up another world. And what an introduction! I must now return to the other Scott recordings and enjoy a thousand fold. Thank you guys. The organ is a very hard instrument to record. I can now even hear the pneumatic opening of the pipes on occasions. Brilliant. Credit to you both and your team as well as the superb organ builders around the world. Sadly where I live, our magnificent Willis organ has been let to decay by the municipality and will probably never be voiced again due to theft of the pipes and "no money" to maintain. I could weep.
Really tops in the rendition, attention to the music, recording quality and just the right registration.
Outrageously brilliant! Fantastic arrangement, sublime musicianship and understanding of Mozart's original, and the most mind boggling technique (including the pedal trills at 3:58). Congratulations. This is one of my favourite organ performances. And it's at Bridgewater Hall, a place I've conducted many times. Great venue, great organ.
I am in awe of his talent!
Wow seeing this in 2020! Best thing I’ve seen his year. Incredible talent. Bravo. 👍
the coordination of his hands and feet is incredible
Jonathan is a genius, a born organist, his coordination of hands and the dance of his feet is truly amazing, fascinating. I also love his so highly! polished shoes and his neat, elegant appearance as well. And always great camerawork.
Thank you!
Wow! Thermonuclear arrangement and superb playing.
The Scott Brothers are Amazing and I think Tom is a real comic when doing the videos of their summer festival trip
Song writer is awesome...
player is awesome...
listeners awesome....
what a lovely performance
1 word: FABULOUS❤❤❤
Brilliant!
I am going through, with the utmost pleasure, all the videos I can find of The Scott Bothers recordings. The dexterity and the quality of recording is superb. My only regret is that I will never see you guys live (I'm72). I profoundly regret that the Durban (South Africa) Willis organ has been abandoned and neglected by our municipality. It was rebuilt in the 1970's by the son (maybe great grandson) but now is missing pipes (I believe stolen) and is rotting away. I so regret not getting to know the Willis fellow and his family from England living in my flat complex while he was working on the organ because I could have got into the loft and seen all the glory of the magnificent instrument. It wont be long before the casework is chucked out. I weep. I do not have an update of the Pietermaritzburg City Hall organ. Last I heard there was only one guy keeping it tuned and working. Our new culture does not provide for these classics.
Wow! That was sheer joy. Thank you.
Astonishing, both the arrangement and performance! It goes in my favorites for sure.
Proof, if any were needed, of Jonathan's status in the premier league of world organists.
You are always welcommed in Canada
An extraordinary version of this classic -- thank you very much for your dedication to great music!
Amazing men and who would thumbs down on this?
Someone to be pitied because of their ignorance. Why are these trolls even on sites like this. Obviously they don't like music anyway.
The Marcussen organ is simply stunning!! Breathtaking transcription!! Thank you, brothers Scott, for sharing your talents!!
ThanKs a lot Jonathan, you are my pipe hero sir ! xxx
Wowzers. Absolutely phenomenal.
I am short of comment, this is extra ordinary performance, well done sir. I'm sold out.
Una verdadera delicia para los oídos y para la vista!! Impresionante. Me has dejado sin palabras. Mozart hubiese estado jubiloso de admirar esta maravilla. Felicidades Jonathan!! ❤👏👏👏💖
I see impossible can be true and performed.. 1 man stands for whole orchestra
Mind boggling sound an playing.
Mr. Scott, you are a VIRTUOSO! And Mr. Scott, your cinematography is flawless!
Outstanding!
Just wonderful! Congratulations on this magnificent arrangement and performance!
This is a video full of a sense of reality
This song is one of many on the CDs I purchased from his website. No one else even comes close to his mastery.
Thank you for this both aurally and visually stunning performance.
A wonderful, truly MOZARTIAN performance form a superb organist. The organ itself is a revelation - I wish I'd had a pedal board/manual like that when I played. Thanks to the scottbrothersduo for this gem.
Absolutely Top Notch work! Sounds HEAVENLY on the organ!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!
Bravo! Wonderful!
Love the pedal glissando and trills!
The Marcussen organ sounds perfect for this, as well.
Merci bien, Jonathan and Tom. 👍 ❤️
Jonathan, you're amazing!
Thrilling beyond words!
It’s hard to believe that this is even real. Bravo. Astonishing! ❤
Jonathan, You bring me great joy! Thank you.
The brothers Scott strike again! Beautiful transcription and audio/video.
Of all his many videos, this may be my favorite. What a complete and detailed transcription and performance (and registration)! Love many of their others as well, but this one really stands out in my opinion. Keep up the amazing work, both of you!
One man orchestra! STUNNING! 😱😱
BRILLIANT!
Just fantastic! More transcriptions of classics please.
Meu Deus, isso é inacreditável! Isso é fantástico! A começar pelo instrumento e culminado pelo organista. Isso é inacreditável! Isso é maravilhoso!
Verdade, órgão é muito bonito.
não tem como definir tanta beleza
What to say but... WOW!
Bravo! I'd bet that Mozart would be grinning from ear to ear hearing this transcription.
Genial manera de disfrutar la música. Mucho virtuosismo del maestro Scott.
If the BBC proms this year happen in a empty Albert Hall it would be nice to hear him perform on the organ in the hall
this is unique
congratulations to john scott
awesome organist (from another world)
Amazing one more time! May be this is my favorite overture and I didn't imagine to listen it for pipe organ! Thanks!
Another amazing performance! Bravo!
This is the greatest organ solo ever of the marriage of the figaro!!! Thank you !!!
An excellent music romanced by an excellent organist.
You're good bro. God bless you
Pure listening pleasure!
Brilliant.
Magnificent!!! Such a perfect piece for an organ.
Jonathan and Tom, another unimaginably Stunning Performance. You have also chosen a Magnificent organ
A great, convincing transcription.
EXCELLENT! Mr. Scott!
MOZART would love this. Great job!
A truly magnificent performance of one of the greatest pieces of music ever composed.
I just love it! So joyful and full of mischief! Thank you Mister Scott. :)
Der helle Wahnsinn - einfach genial!!!
