Im a church organist playing a pipe organ with 14000 pipes, I have no limits to music, I can play any music as I desire, but my favorite music is all the music of queen
Absolutely fantastic piece of music played on a fine musical instrument . The composition does full justice to both the organ and the organists ability.
Sounds very bombastic, even more than the original song, that's what this song is meant te be. That's naturaly due to the huge dynamic range of a pipe organ.
We had a friend called Theo Saunders. Organist at St James the Greater in Leicester. Latterly went to Armagh in NI. Died untimely of cancer. He was incredibly talented, one of the best in the world. He was invited to an event reflecting this, wondered why he'd been asked. Theo, we salute you. Miss our pizza and rug appreciation evenings. We will meet in Heaven. We are Wednesday aren't we!
erg goed dat dit soort filmpjes op youtube verschijnen. mensen weten vaak niet hoe verstild en tegelijk hoe machtig een orgel kan klinken. aangezien de herkenning bij dit soort muziek natuurlijk erg hoog is, wordt het orgel weer dichter bij de mensen gebracht in plaats van dat alleen kerkgangers het horen! daarnaast maakte Queen muziek die m.i. toch net een stukje beter in elkaar zit dan het gemiddelde popnummer! Mooi gedaan!
I assume that the organ is historic,or one with mechanical key & stop action. That means registration changes cannot be pre-set. I guess you'd marke them on the music & have assistance on hand if you were playing a recital. Doing it single-handed is remarkable.
Marvellous presentation and best example of how a pipe organ can emulate the effects in an orchestral score of pop music. I just wonder if this is Marcussen and Sons instrument.
Hi Caroline, I've been asked to play this at a wedding too - I think I will end up making my own organ arrangement from the piano music based on this guys great version! I'm also UK based.
SuperSuperfingers Just wondering if you made any organ sheet music for this? We too are looking to use this for our wedding. if you have and if its not too much hassle could you share? Thanks.
Some tracker organs are built in such a way that coupling manuals does not cause other keys to move. A tracker organ uses mechanical linkages (as opposed to electrical) to open and close air to pipes. If you want to learn more about tracker organs, search for "tracker action" on Wikipedia and Google around for it, there are some excellent diagrams and demonstrations.

Oh mein Gott, das ist unglaublich, was man mit der Mutter aller Instrumente so alles in Klang zu bringen vermag. Wahnsinnig in die Tasten gehauen. Überwältigend.
Wow, WOw, WOW!!!!!!!! TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY!!!!!! I would say he blew all the dust out of ALL the pipes. :)

To say true, it is more the richness of the harmonic spectrum, than the dynamic range. But I see what you intend to mean.
Stunning music sounds great if played with every instrument: TOP performance, I think that Queen and Freddie would appreciate so much! THANK YOU!
I am always getting goosebumps when I listen to it. Tears are coming into my eyes because of that bombastic masterpiece. Thanks so much for uploading.
Unbelievable performance, sounds really great!
You are a master!
Doesn’t matter what instrument you play it on, Queen always sounds awesome

The Pipe Organ is really the king of all instruments.
it's that emphatic, even angry sounding chord on the 2nd 'We' that's amazing too. thanks again sir.
YOU are the champion my friend. I could listen to all night. All my best from the USA, Jim
Imagine this guy just blasting it like this at midnight because he can't sleep, then the silence afterwards o_o
Literally what i'm doing right now XD
