  • I play for you (live) 'Nimrod' variation from 'Variations on an Original Theme Op 36' (commonly known as the 'Enigma Variations' on the incredible 1861 Cavaillé-Coll of Nancy Cathedral in France.
    Have you ever heard it sound like this before??
    This is taken from my Recital on 29th May 2021, during which we experienced connection issues. Luckily I always capture my recitals on the cameras' SD cards for me to upload at a later date.

    Nimrod always makes my heart leap, because of it being such an emotional build up, when played well as Richard does here, plus being my Mums favourite piece of music. Also my grand father being born in Herefordshire & others nearby in Forest of Dean.

    As the world suffers still through COVID-19 - the present illnesses, in the USA hundreds of young teens are in Intensive Care and are being ventilated, and we all know of the millions who have died over the past 15 months. As I have pondered what repertoire to play for prelude when our churches do reopen, NIMROD certainly brings to mind the kind of tenderness and contemplation in the loss of so many family members and single persons around Earths imagined corners. My Pastor asked that I not "dwell" in dark, sad-sounding music, that "people need to be lifted up in new joy and stimulated to emerge from depression and grief." I "get" her point, but I also think most of us need the chance to grieve for as long as it takes until God"s spirit lifts us up and we are able to rise, bathe, dress, and go about positive activities of life renewal with those who remain in our midst. Like Richard and Carolyn, our youngest daughter and son-in-law gave birth to a tiny, but completely well-little fellow they've named ELTON. We got so much love and fascination from "ROCKET MAN" the movie before the Damnpemic, and our Little ELTON seemed to them the perfect name: he even has one tiny suit which has drawings of rockets, asteroids which are colorful and happy. So it is my strong belief that as we present organ music for service music, especially Preludes, there is room and need for a mix-of-moods. Who is not "moved" by NIMROD? There is a plethora of pieces like Rowley's BENEDICTUS and ELEGIES abound. So, be a minister of music and help your congregations grieve their losses.

    Nice transcription. But man, those celestes are tuned VERY WIDE, wow!
    Anyway, first time I heard this transcription was with Thomas Murray LIVE back in the late 80ies on the Woolsey Hall organ. He is a magician with handing reeds off from division to divison, you never here them stop abruptly, they just melt into the strings, his tempo is also much slower so you really get to hear that decrescendo all the way down to the Aeoline! Thank you for this, a long time fav. (O:

    I don’t know if you remember the Canadian organist, Frederick Gegan, (sp??) but this was his theme song and he played masterfully as did you here. He for years was on the program With Heart and Voice. These pieces are challenging as they are romantic in nature requiring a delicate balance to not slide into sentimentality. Virgil Fox was also a master of this type of composition, despite the criticism he often received for showmanship. Well played.

This is just my opinion, and it's still obviously different, but it sounds like it'd belong perfectly as soundtrack to a videogame like, say, Minecraft.

You opening announcement is not right. I do commend you for the barefoot pedal performance. More organists should learn this method. Yes, the sound of the recordd organ is nice - but it is like listening to a CD instead of being in Nancy Cathedral. It is an imitation of what that organ should sound like.
