Really fine pedal-work! Great organ setup, excellent playing - precision of notes is core to Bach pieces. You nailed it! Thank you for all the work and for posting! (from Canada)
Loved the way the foot keys droned on as the top played merrily playfully and technically, allowing the foot keys showing off its ability to do as the upper keys. Amazing!
I remain in total ecstasy and I always ask myself the same question, how do you manage to memorize and play such complex works without a score? BRAVO!!!
Congratulations, impeccable execution and beautiful use of appropriate recordings (stops) for the various sections of the composition. Certainly among the most complex works of the composer's great production, and performed from memory....wowh. Good boy😍👏
I enjoy how you contrast the F major toccata, with its pedal solos and uplifting melodic line, with the sober opening of the Fugue. And the sound you get out of your setup is great!
Due to my lack of self control, I have to beg you to stop. Between you and the Netherlands Bach Society, I can't get anything done in "real" life. On a more serious note; thank you for inviting the world and me to join you in your homemade virtual cathedral. My recent purchase of an 11.1.4 sound system really makes the illusion complete. I must be up there in the organ loft with you, because I can see you playing, but it sounds like I'm down in the front row. My brain hasn't quite reconciled that yet - but I don't care - it's awesome! Your beautiful interpretation, registration, and editing in 90+ recordings bring me intense joy every day (I might even say tears of intense joy, but I won't cuz I wouldn't want anyone to know about that). If you're taking requests, might I suggest cloning yourself one more time and recording the Allegro (3) from BWV 1064 concerto for three harpsichords. And if you'd consider music that "was" Bach when I was growing up, but is no longer Bach, the "Eight little/short Preludes and Fugues" BWV 553-560 (especially 557 and 556).
It was actually the second time that I recorded this piece, it took about one month to refresh my memory... First time was 6 years ago and it took much longer ;-)
Encore une interprétation du plus haut niveau, qu'il m'ait été permis d'écouter… Pas de doute, Xavier vient d'une autre planète ! Et tant pis, si je me répète. 🙏
Deep love for Bach's organ music and natural talent of these Man accomplishes our own dream - to hope some day to be able to play like him Bach's organ music treasures ourselves, Xavier you can have our gratitude for all your hard work you've done for your listeners and followers.

🇮🇹❤️👍👏💥 ~ Bellissimo il pezzo di J.S. Bach, ma devo complimentarmi, per l' assoluta precisione esecutiva dell' organista assolutamente perito!!!

This is no small accomplishment. And by memory! Bravo. Thanks for making this video. I wonder how it takes you to commit the score to memory?

Playing a komplex Piece like that from Memory is great
Bravo Xavier. Excellent, as always. Thanks for your work and passion
Awesome interpetation of the fugue for two subjects
