    I guess what I like about the organ is that one moment it sounds like bells, the next horns, the next singing birds. But it's not just it's tonal range but dynamic. From the near imperceptible to the rumbling, bombastic, the organ is super fantastic.

    It's 3 minutes before 1 am EDT (March 21) here in New York, and I have just finished listening and watching this for the 6th, 7th or 8th time since the premiere (I've lost count), and I still can't get enough of it!!! With surprisingly excellent earbuds, plugged into a laptop (!), I am able to hear even the lowest notes of this organ clearly! It boggles my mind that Tom is able to record these organs with no feedback on the loudest and lowest notes! I can almost feel the organ as if I were actually in the cathedral. As I said before, every piece on this program is a gem, and Jonathan's dazzling performance made all 3 sparkle and shine! The organ and cathedral at Ripon are magnificent, so I thank you, Jonathan and Tom, for showcasing your wizardry and skill in this beautiful setting! Stay well and safe, while I look forward to your next appearance!

    Another truly brilliant performance on a wonderful instrument, in a great Cathedral. I visited Ripon Cathedral in 2014 - sadly at a time when no services/rehearsals were taking place. I can remember, though, instinctively making my way to the organ console and wishing so much that I could hear the sound of the great instrument which surrounded me. You've fulfilled that wish for me tonight - and in a way which (at the time) I couldn't have imagined! As always, thank you both so much for everything that you do. Stay safe and take care.

You've captured what, to my way of thinking about the Saint-Saëns, is the delicate balance between sultry, sensual smokiness and laser-like, purifying religiosity. And your technique is, quite simply, stunningly perfect and amazing. Thank you very much, Geof.

    I know Ripon Cathedral quite well; having spent the best part of 15 years in the area as we had a caravan sited at Markington. A wonderful cathedral and as Johnathon alluded to, a lot of history. I witnessed a closure to a wedding there a good few years ago; as I was walking by the south door, the door opened to the wonderful sounds of Ripon cathedral organ playing Widor's Tocatta and out came the new bride and groom. What a sight and wonderful sound that has remained with me all these years. Thankyou Johnathan and Tom for some fantastic playing and film work.

    Many thanks to Jonathan and Tom for this wonderful recital. Superb, as always. You are both WORLD TREASURES ! 👍👏❤️
    I really do appreciate the very interesting remarks/commentary you offer regarding the music, history, etc. of the organs and churches you perform at.
    That 32' Contre-Bombarde (Bombardon) is a MONSTER ! 💥

    This was an amazing concert to watch and also thoroughly enjoyed hearing the background commentary by Jonathan. This guy is absolutely amazing on the organ!! The setting of Ripon Cathedral is majestic; obviously the only thing better would be to be there in person. A must listen for organ fans!

    This was superb. I had the privilege of singing in Ripon Cathedral when at Ripon Grammar school choir. This brings back wonderful memories how great that organ sounds. Thank you!

    Absolutely magnificent! You never cease to amaze me. That was quite the workout for you. And wonderful camera work from Tom. You make a terrific pair of entertainers. May the good Lord grant you many years of music making together. Thanks. I sang in Ripon Cathedral as a boy when our choir from Leeds Minster (Parish Church in those days) visited Ripon on many occasion. A wonderful memory. A great 72nd birthday present for me. Thank you so much to you both. God Bless you both.
