An overwhelming performance on a really spectacular instrument. The reeds in this organ have such wonderful sonority, something lacking in many of today's fine instruments. I have heard this played faster, by Gillian Weir I think, but certainly the hall in which this organ is located lends itself quite nicely to this ever so slightly slower tempo. Perfection!
look at his feet when he is playing...he coordinates playing the pedals with the volume pedals...with such ease!...it leaves such an impression on the novice organist that i am...i watch this a few times when i go on youtube and i am never not amazed.
i love the feel he puts into this piece...i have a cd of virgil fox playing this which sounds like a speed demon version compaired to this recording here...but i have to say that mr. hohman's version of this piece is very nice...i really like the feel he puts into it at 4:03...he builds it up and just sinks right into the next part...LOVE IT!
why do you guys in USA always misinterpret the title as 'you are the rock' ?? it is 'You are Peter' !!!!! great playing , and i think it's the most tonally satisfying american organ i've ever heard !!!!
Thanks for writing. Since this video was made (about 1996) I believe I've found a much better hair stylist. (Referencing your earlier comment.) I also appear to have less hair to take care of today as I did in 1996. Cheers! - FH
the beauty and excitment of the playing are equal to the
videography. wow.

I used to do piano recitals there in Methuen. Very lovely hall.
