Mark, I watch you all the time playing theatre organ, but I've never heard you play piano before. You are exceptional in every respect. I so admire you, being able to memorize and play with such finesse! Makes me feel like my 70 years of playing have been unfruitful. I've been a church pianist and organist for nearly 65 years, but still have to have music in front of me! ☹️😥😊
You and me both! If what he played was written out, I could sightread it almost flawlessly. But play by ear? Improvise? NAH! I'm in my 70s any still have a chuch organ/piano job.
Mark, I enjoy your theatre organ performances immensely, not only for your playing, but also for the polished presentation. Now to discover this aspect of your skill, not only your technical ability but your innate musicianship, displayed on your superb Mason & Hamelyn, is well, a new bowl of delights (but not Turkish). So many younger people dismiss the eras that not only produced the great music you play, but also fail to see that Musicianship has almost disappeared. OK, I enjoy producing music with modern technology, with AI etc, but non of this musical world can even start to match ability such as yours. To listen to this concert is an unparalleled treasure, yet another reminder from you just what real light music is (I can get this only from my Reproducing piano, but the repertoire of light music from that past period was small). Thank you Mark
Four months on and I'm still not tired of listening to you.
What a wonderful find, you are! Talent on loan from God for sure. Brought me back to music played in my home growing up. Thank you, Thank you.
Your modulations between pieces are an art in themselves.
What a great program,you play so wonderful. And very easy on the eyes.
Just discovered you tonight. Thanks - brilliant! You play in the styles I once did except, perhaps, Church. It's your freedom of expression that feels so companionable. Thanks and all best wishes for years of sharing your love of music.
Brilliant ! And what a tremendous good memory you have... I 'm a musician too and I know you've been working very hard, practising a lot to get this high level of playing and great musicale culture. A gift is nothing if there is no work behind it. Knowing chords, modulations, good tehnic, swing and dynamic... well done Mark (From France)
Such a throwback talent with so much soul and heart. Your incredible repertoire is timeless...just love your ideas and interpretations.
God blessed you by giving you a big big musical talent.
Nice presentation. You are very talented. Your piano and repertoire changed the "atmosphere" of my home for better. Now we have here a mix of sophistication in a cozy place. Thank you for sharing your good taste.
Oh my goodness... the way you transition between keys so effortlessly.is truly brilliant. More on UA-cam please.
Wow! That just about says it all. You are so talented. Thanks for sharing.
Just love your playing thanks a million for entertaining us . 🙂
Absolutely astounding talent. Your technique is fantastic, your understanding of harmonic alternatives is as good as it gets and it's all brought together on a simply beautiful piano. I'm a Bosendorfer fan and would never have thought a grand that size could get close to it's depth - what a find! I may be wrong but I feel I can hear a Peterson influence in your playing - oh, and you made me curse a few times ..... chromatic tenths is just showing off (especially in quick stride)🤣. Thanks for sharing this.
Still commin back. The Chopin quote always brings a smile 👌
What a very talented performer. Well done Mark, I know just how much hard work you’ve put into what you do so very well!
Mark … please start recording and producing more of your piano arrangements … I think you could further enhance your following with such brilliant musicality!! 👍👍
Brilliant!
Beautiful sounding M&H. So much more depth and color than the Bosie 225 that was in my home. Much happier with the 1919 Conover 88 I had rebuilt. It was made alongside your 1915 AA in the same factory, very similar sound. Wonderful playing!
Thank you Mark, beautiful
Oh my! We have been listening to your beautiful theatre organ melodies via roku on every tv in our house thru UA-cam....and now this beautiful piano playing!.....we thankyou a thousand times in our little city in Ohio!.....you have been given a special gift from God that for sure!...thankyou and hope to somehow find you live so we can request a song.....would love to hear you play. "The White Cliffs of Dover" ❤️
Wow man I like your improvisation technique. You are a genius. Awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Superb. I know I’ll never play as well but this has inspired me to ramp up practicing. Thank you.
seriously on point mark, superb playing
Ever thought of doing a gig with Michael Buble? You'd be such a marvelous match for the classics, The REAL MUSIC!!!
Enjoyed "It's a beautiful Day in the Neighborhood". Johnnie Costa who performed it with Fred Rogers on the kids TV show was a great jazz pianist. People in Pittsburgh loved him.
Fabulous. Recently discovered your channel and enjoyed that immensely.
Wonderful
now you're cooking with gas... lovely! (wheezers, - begone!!!)

I have an inherited and restored 1913 Mason & Hamlin AA; wish I could play mine as well as you play yours, but not even close.
Keep on playing , pplease,
Next time I’ll join you for a Cocktails 🍹
If you publish "Jarvis" please let me know. What a delightful novelty tune!
Your piano always comes through sounding so great! Can you share what kind of mic/technique you use to capture that?

Loving the Piano concert too I wonder If you have sought out or contacted 1st congregational church I hear they have a tremendous Organ maybe out of the ordinary but certainly worth a try. there are so many home organ installations it would be hard to document much less play all of them.
You may be speaking of 1st Congregational in Los Angeles. This church has two large pipe organs in the sanctuary. A Skinner up front and Schlicker in the back. They can be played separately or together from the same console - making one of the largest church organs in the US. These organs are a horse of a very different color requiring an entirely different playing technique from Mark's usual theatre organ genre. Though I'll betcha he could manage a fine rendition of a few ditties.
Please get a better MIC for your voice... poor audio
