- J.S. Bach : Toccata and Fugue in D minor BWV 565
Liene Andreta Kalnciema playing the great Walcker organ (1883) at Riga Cathedral in Latvia.
Performance recorded live on July 7, 2019.
Assistant: Arnolds Dimants

She's commanding a spaceship. Simply out of this world.
В мене промайнула аналогічна думка про космічний корабель😊👍
Such a wonderful comment.
Three geniuses at work here, Bach, the Organ Builder and the Organist🙏🙏🙏
All three in the category of "Elite".
All providing such beauty, meaning and goodness to our confused, tired old world. Thankyou.
Don’t forget the page turner!
She is a master organist...working in a master piece
Someone invented the camera too...
To play it, is one thing, but to write it down on paper, as you hear it in your head, thats something out of this world. Way to go Bach👍
Affirmatif.
Actually they are two different things. Both being just as impressive. Most composers lack the technique to actually play what they write. Not saying Bach did. Who knows? It's not like we have any recordings. 🙂
I don't know what he had in mind, how many people are required to play this piece simultaneously.
The pipe organ and Bach are, to me, the most amazing confluence of divergent strains of the human mind.
You're right 🙂
Can you even imagine at the time when Bach created this just what it did for people ? Truly a genius before his time ! For this woman to have the talent to touch people is an extraordinary gift.

❤ love this beautiful Toccata &Fuge. Awoesome play.
A billiant composition. Genius at work.
J.S. Bach non è solo Musica, ma trascendenza!
Bach e la musica ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It is even greater to sit in a church and experience this piece of music live. When the basses of the organ make your whole body vibrate, it's indescribable
indeed, the big cathedrals were and essential part of the instrument.
I went on a guided tour of churches in Newark, N.J. and the last stop was St. Stanislaus in Ironbound. An old Polish church in a Portuguese/Brazilian neighborhood. We were getting ready to leave when the organist started playing this. I insisted we stay til the end. The most awesome sound. Best part of tour, and that included church where America the Beautiful was first performed, and an historic African-American church.
Kann ich nur unterstreichen. Auf der Passauer Domorgel selbst miterlebt-/gehört. Unvergleichliches Erlebnis.
@@dietergeorge6527 Ich habe die Tocata auf der großen Orgel in Saint Paul's London gespielt - das ganze Gebäude bebt!
The cathedral is part of the instrument..
My wife and I had the pleasure of hearing that piece played at the Salisbury Cathedral in England. We were just visiting the grounds, walked in, and that happened. We couldn’t move! It just grabbed and held us there! Unbelievable!!!
the very same for me to but in canterbury cathederal
@dougaldouglas8842 it was absolutely amazing the sound went right through you
I was working in the UK and happened into the Winchester cathedral on a Sunday afternoon. A few moments later the organist was practicing this and I was alone listening to this wonderful piece.
I love Salisbury Steak !
How luck you were.
Помимо музыки и чудесной исполнительницы, шикарные съёмки! Большое спасибо за то, что можно было всё ее мастерство увидеть!!!
Один лишь раз,пока ещё,был на концерте органной музыки.Это особое впечатление и светлейший посыл.От композиторов.И конечно,от исполнителя.А сам инструмент,это грандиозное изобретение.Об этом можно написать много томов книг.И они будут, у каждого человека,по своему содержательны.
@@ОлегП-й2ж вспоминается как нас в той же Риге в юности в мореходке погнали в культпоход именно в этот собор. Концерт состоял из 4-х вещей- три местного гения Ермакса и четвертая Иоганна нашего Cебостьяныча Баха. Поле трех какофоний, когда я надеялся отойти в мир гармоний Ручья, который должен быть Морем, я услышал опять какАфонию. После этого двухчасового издевательства для ушей и зрения я на выходе присмотрелся к афише и только тогда заметил приписочку мелким почерком к 4-му Произведению: И.C.Бах "в обработке А. Ермакса". Это был такой светлейший посыл... Я такой же потом встретил, когда наш пароход собирался переворачиваться из-за шторма, но наша советская родина-мамачка не бросила нас на произвол без вести пропадания и вместо эвакуации экипажа шведскими вертолетами (ещё чего валюту тратить!) подогнало другое наше более крупное судно наблюдать как мы будем переворачиваться.

I could listen to this piece up to the end of my life with the same thrill and tears in my eyes...
Le génie incroyable de notre civilisation : Bach - le facteur d'orgues et l'excellente organiste : un plaisir inégalé qui élève l'âme. Merci
The amount of human ingenuity that went into making the organ and writing this piece of music never ceases to astound me!
did Bach know that this piece, played on this type of organ, would require two people?
@@felixreali7101 that is an excellent question!

Logisch Denken
When I was little, my dad had a record that was produced to demonstrate STEREO functionality on new Hi-Fi systems. This was at the very beginning of "stereo". One of the recording was Toccata & Fugue in D minor. I played it over and over again, amazed at the sound separation. Needless to say, this is now burned into my cerebral cortex for all time.
Beautiful.
Bravo! My god. I've never seen anyone play this fast. She does it with ease and precision. The foot pedaling is so cool to watch. This is breathtaking. Bach would be smiling for sure
Fast, yes. But not ripping through it like she's got cab waiting outside with the meter running. And she holds that last chord just the right length of time.
And her shoes have heels!
@@doubledrats235 I know isn’t that insane?
❤She is a Celestial organist. I can't find any words for described my emotion to hear this song. Perfect.
She plays so fast all the notes get jumbled together. Another one of those "playing fast means I'm good" musician. She must have a cab waiting.
The organ is the most difficult instrument to master. Kudos to this lady, who is on another level. Had goosebumps listening all the way. God bless her.
Is it? I mean, the guitar seems pretty daunting and challenging, doesn't it?
@@samr.england613 with organ it matters how much you press the keys and the controls and everything is quite complicated, then there's also the foot pedals. I'd say organ is quite a lot harder to learn to even play decently compared to guitar.
@@Idontknow-mf7tx Maybe man, but I'm not a musician so I don't really know, but I've been told I "have an ear" for good music.
At any rate, I'm amazed by any prodigy on the keys or the strings, and it seems to me that both playing the organ or piano or the guitar are equally mathematically complex and really infinite in the combinations.
I've heard (unknown) guitarists say things like: 'There are no more riffs to create. Every possible riff has already been composed." In my mind, these are uncreative losers just making excuses. Heck, after Zep, Page never came up with any memorable riff. 'Radioactive'? Well, it ain't 'Heartbreaker' riff, is it.
»The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;
And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;
And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;
And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;
And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of The Holy Ghost.
Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of The Holy Ghost.
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.«
(The Gospel of Jesus Christ - Matthew - Chapter 1)
@@samr.england613with the organ you’re essentially using 4 different limbs to play it. Each hand and each foot is doing something separately. Almost like patting your head and rubbing your belly at the same time. An organ is also wayyy harder to just practice on since you’re using an entire building to play. I would definitely say the organ is more difficult to play than a guitar.
Got to be one of the best performances I have ever seen of an organist playing this Toccata and Fugue by J.S.Bach.
I like this one he is at young age in the video.
ua-cam.com/video/PEHGxpRoZQM/v-deo.html
During one ig my very first visits to europe, i wandered into a church, and someone was playing this. That was my first experience with a church organ.
Many years later, every time i visit a church, inhope tonhear it again.
Mind-blowing!!! How can a brain direct the precise and complicated movements of 10 digits, two hands and two feet while the eyes peer at a densely packed page of musical notes and produce this kind of beauty? I can't personally fathom it, but it is wondrous to behold. 🤘
Du talent c'est certain, l'amour de la musique et surtout énormément de travail.
It’s not hard. Just practice four hours a day for ten years and you’ll be ready.
No...takes a lot of practice but Bach is So much fun to play on a pipe organ! He is the Master of masters.
Even Jerry Lee Lewis played where ever he was for 8 hours a day, everyday.
the sheets are a mere orientation and mental note than for reading for here. She knows it essentially from memory. Playing it without any sheets is the next level.
Never tire of this magnificent work. There is no modern music written today that can equal Bach’s genius.
oh Mr Glass is half empty, thats not true..... we got the Spice Girls 🤣🤣. Merry Xmas!
@@englischdude Don't you mean Mr Philip Glass? His stuff is pretty good as well!
Well, Led Zeppelin, Frank Zappa,and Pink Floyd came close. Though I don’t know if they can still be called modern.

@@MorrisLess big fan of Rick’s. I think that comment was by Pat Metheny during one of Rick’s interviews.
Brava! I am in awe of musicians . My wife plays piano and likes to play Chopin and some etude's and nocturne's bring me to tears. I was in a depression several years ago and as she played, it offered hope that it was not going to last forever and that beauty was still all around. Thank you all who make the world better.
Thank you for sharing this. It gives me reason to be hopeful.
Glen... Glen... Bro... YOU NEED TO MAN UP!
@ I do not get what you mean? Being touched by beauty while going through a depression is unmanly?
Johann Sebastian Bach died in 1750. Still swings better than pretty much anyone alive today. What a guy!
Excellent performance. Most enjoyable.
If I only had one piece of music left to listen to for the rest of my life, this would be it. Stunning performance!

Was lucky enough to hear this played in an old Detroit church. The whole place vibrated with its power. The last note absorbed by the pews and 100 year old cherry wood. Then a moment of silence followed by an eruption of cheers. Was truly magical. I’m forever grateful that souls like Bach walked the earth.
es you are truly a lucky guy to get this unforgettable expaerience.
Лучше бы эта музыка играла на русской земле в память невинно убитых детей Белгорода и Донецка. Мы, русские, очень ценим человеческие ценности и такую музыку тоже. Чайковский и Шостакович- наши композиторы.

As a pilot, I often marvel at how man came to create such fantastic machines, especially when we see majestic giants take flight.
I look at this machine, however, and cannot comprehend the mind that gifted this instrument to the world.
This is architecture, meets art, meets acoustics, meets fluid mechanics, meets history. Put them all together in the hands of this wonderfully talented lady, and you get… music.
Thank you for your time and effort in showing us your performance. It is marvellous.
You wrote what I was thinking.
May I quote you?
Vc troxe lágrimas aos meus olhos. Bonita descrição.
And no wonder so many musicians have cited Bach as their biggest inspiration/mentor. Fabulous piece.
At its time, this was a high-tech as things got.
To this day, internal settings on CPU's are called registers, named after the registers on an organ.
In the mid-70's I went into Salisbury Cathedral as I heard someone practicing on the organ. He was so good I applauded and we began speaking. I asked about liking Bach. This was the treat I received!! Never to be forgotten!

Thank you for bringing back that memory. Side note, My grandfather built organs for Aeolian in the 1930s. Traveled entire east coast. Notables- Dupont, Rockefeller, Ringling.
You are so lucky to be in the moment with Bach, mum and grandfather organ
In the 1940's, my father taught organ builder Jan van den Heuvel (from Wieldrecht, Island of Dordrecht, Netherlands) how to ride a bicycle. By the end of the century, Jan van den Heuvel built some of the most magnificent church organs ever (fi those of the St. Eustache, Paris and the Tonhalle, Zürich). Learning how to ride a bicycle, however, confronted him with almost insurmountable difficulties. My father was the only kid in the entire (be it very small) village who had the patience to get him to master the noble art of riding a bicycle. I guess even geniuses suck at something...
@@arjanstam78 lololol and yet, so cool!👍🏻❤️🕊️
One of the best up close videos of the choreography of the organist’s body in playing this most magnificent of all organ pieces ever written. I hope we continue to have musicians of this talent keep this music, and these great instruments, alive for generations to come…
I don't know where you are but if you ever get the chance to go to the Kelvingrove art gallery and museum in Glasgow's west end where they have a pipe organ recital every day at 1pm (3pm Sundays). The organist is at first floor level and you can view from the balcony from about fifteen feet away, you can even watch the organists feet on a CCTV screen at the same time.
Bravo! Cela fait 50 ans que j'écoute la fugue en ré mineur de Bach ... vous l'avez joué Divinement. Bonne continuation. Bach n'est jamais sorti de son village, il a fait une ribambelle d'enfants et passait tout son temps à jouer du Bach à l'église, cette vie rangée entre musique et marmots le comblait.

вы недостойны слушать музыку людей, животные-террористы должны слушать вой на болотах.
Just wanted to let you know your playing of the D minor Fugue is likely the best I have ever heard. I spent about 40 years of my line as an organist and choral director so I have some idea of good and bad but your performance was the very best. Keep up the great playing and the presentation of organ music in a time when churches here in the US seem to have forgotten about their organs and organists. I don't play professionally anymore at 83 but have a 3 manual Midi organ in my house. Again great playing, J.S. would be pleased.
May I ask if you created your own midi set-up or purchased a midi console...
@@cassandrasciortino6255 I took an old Conn two manual and added the electronics to convert it to a midi. I also purchased a used manual and wired it up and mounted it above the first two manuals. Also I am using a touch computer screen to select stops and combinations until I figure a way to build a stop panel on each side of the organ. Also recently wire my pedal board (from the Conn) and I am in the process of testing that. I use the free organ software Grandt Organ, and a free organ for a 3M 1P organ based on a large organ in Europe.
@@nicepersonwv361 Thank you very much for your detailed reply! I am not experienced in electronics...but maybe I can find tutorials...otherwise I am looking at a costly console for Hauptwerk...
@@cassandrasciortino6255 Let me go a bit further in my reply. First electronics isn't the issue. You can buy circuit boards that will talk directly with a PC. All you have to is to hook wires from your manuals, pedal board, and maybe stops to these boards and they will work. So the main problem is hooking up the manuals and other to those boards. For example on my Conn the two manuals I had to figure out how to allow each key/note send a signal to the boards. Basically I had to tear the manuals apart and create contacts. The third manual was easier because it came out of a pipe organ and had switches on each note. The pedals also were not wired, just pedals and I had to create switches for them. I did find help to an extent on the web. My stops I have not done because the Conn had about 30 stops and I need close to 50 not even counting the generals or couplers. So I use a PC monitor that has touch on it so I can just touch the displayed stops from the real organ. I select them with my finger or a mouse. I do hope in the future to create a stop board(s) for the organ as a touch screen isn't the same as physically pulling on or pushing off a stop.
@@jaybeckham Thank you so much for your clarification. This helps me enormously. I can visualize what you had to do and it still sounds intimidating especially creating one's own contacts, but perhaps it is not more difficult than rewiring a lamp which I know how to do -- or replacing the motor on my sewing machine was I managed to do also. Above all I need desperately a 32 pedal board since even working on a basic keyboard prepares me enough to play or practice and refine on a wonderful pipe organ I have access to near my home. But the faltering feet and the mystery of the pedal board must be worked out at home...stop boards sound amazing and quite beautiful. Its strange to see laptops and touch screens beside a wood organ that is sure and if it is possible to get the same with stops and thus come closer to playing the pipe organ even better. I am combing ebay for a pedal board--since new they are quite expensive. Your work sounds amazing! Thank you again.

@@IntiOJ It can't hurt. But the music is what really matters, I think. But yeah, I doubt we'll ever see any super successful ugly or unattractive pop divas out there.
The theme is not made by Bach was a popular theme as the Folia that then everybody in europe variated on his own way, after the main theme Bach compose his version, and not from the start. "Quotation" in music it become exactly stealing, because of the time, that erase knowledge of who was the creator, this for example is very common on popular music that become traditional but without a name of who wrote it. Handel quoted an entire phrase of Corelli in Alleluja, and Corelli of course had the thickness or same luck as Handel for stay recognized thru time, the others because of time they dont even exist and those big composers become the creators of those themes. Whether is wanted or not that is called stealing, thru time, thats why in music quoting others in your own work its a bad habit and is at the end exactly stealing.

It must be an immeasurable satisfaction to play Bach pieces and play an organ like this in that magnificent cathedral, I think you feel almost omnipotent, in the other world.
One of the greatest pieces ever written, and she plays it wonderfully..
Do you know why it was written? Bach's "Tocatta" was composed with the conscious purpose of training novices on the organ/keyboard. [edit. spelling.]
most powerful piece of music ever written! Listening to it being played in a cathedral like this should be on everybody's bucket list!
I did
YES
Completely agree. Would have loved to see it live!
I did at the Strasbourg Cathedral, and yes, is just as magnificent as you may expect it to be.

Nothing but magic!!! Liene Andreta Kalnciema is just brilliant, I have never heard her before, but, I am now a instant fan!!!
Latvija
es gibt im baltischen Raum (Lit./Est./Lettl.) noch viele solcher begabter Menschen, die die Bach'sche Orgelkunst so beherrschen und viele herrliche Orgelinstrumente
Вечная музыка!
Исполнитель и исполнение выше всяких похвал!
Очень сильно!
Браво! Браво! Браво!
Тоже нравится. Но ещё, есть люди, которые виртуозы.
I believe that this period of music composition, extending from Bach through to Tchaikovsky is unparalleled. It speaks to something wonderful and united within us.
It definitely paved the way for music...but then somewhere along the way, we took a detour. And now we have ...lyrics of the likes of "twenty one, could you do somethin for me, twenty one could you do somethin for me...21.....yep, we've definitely progressed and evolved for the better!
В це період творили Бортнянський, та сила силенна композиторів від Бога, імена яких намагались викреслити з всесвітньої історії музики
@@alsuth803 Survivorship bias. There has ALWAYS been folk music, popular music, and yes even bad music. There were so many composers working during the 1700-1800s making derivative, bland music; we simply don't know them because so much time has passed and we tend to only preserve the good ones. Of course the other thing to note is that very very few people were able to make music in the way Bach and others did, because even having access to organs/harpsichords/eventually pianos was the domain of the nobility and those whom they patroned.
As is often said Bach was a gift of God and our performer here is one of the angels
@@tz4601 Yes, the test of time.
Ten kto sądzi ,że nie można być -Pięknym,utalentowanym mistrzem kunsztu gry na organach -żyje w ogromnym błędzie.Ta prześliczna Pani jest tego żywym dowodem.Podziwiam Pani talent,któr w żaden sposób nie odbiega od Pani ślicznej urody .Pięknie dziękuję za to że Pani po prostu jest.
This is the most beautiful rendition of this song that I have heard in a very long time. Bach himself would be proud, I imagine.
Song??
Cumbia?? 🤣🤣
Songs have lyrics. This is a "piece", or "work".
who sings?
»The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;
And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;
And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;
And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;
And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of The Holy Ghost.
Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of The Holy Ghost.
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.«
(The Gospel of Jesus Christ - Matthew - Chapter 1)
Сложнейший инструмент, сложнейшее произведение и бесподобное исполнение. Браво!
Согласен, девушка молодец, инструмент очень сложный, но все же чувствуется ее неопытность, но она старалась... А вот так давно играл величайший виртуоз и мастер John Lord и его organ Hammond - Toccata et Fugue intro, J.S.Bach/Solo: ua-cam.com/video/QhiCG0yvhfA/v-deo.html кстати, начало очень даже похоже, пока Джон не включил свои виртуозные штучки!
Меня поразил инструмент… никогда не видела вот так близко и не задумывалась…..
@@ВикторПетров-ш5л спасибо за ссылку
рабсию в помойку, вы недостойны слушать музыку людей, животные-террористы должны слушать вой на болотах.
@@Mrfailstandstil ты кто вообще???
How is this even possible? The level of talent blows my mind...love this!
A truly magical performance on one of the greatest organs in Europe. Thank you for making it available on youtube.
It's "possible" because she is performing Bach's Tocatta on an organ. :) She is, however, very, very good on the keys! Bach composed his 'Tocatta' as a training piece to school students on the organ/keyboard.
@@miraak8523 I didn't know that. Just curious, what do you mean by he, 'gave it away'?
@@miraak8523 That's very interesting, but, I have to say that it's hard to believe that Bach thought his 'Tocatta' was of no real consequence. I mean, that'd be like Jimmy Page dismissing his Stairway to Heaven composition or Zep's 'Kashmir'.
Extraordinaire, l'orgue est un monument, un intrument avec une construction complexe et magnifique. La musicienne capable d'en jouer est une virtuose🤩c'est merveilleux 😍🤩🤤😵💫Une marque de la civilisation humaine.
Loved this piece since I first heard it almost 70 years ago.
Dad took me to hear E. Power Biggs presenting an evening of J.S. Bach in Monterrey, in 1960. The performance finished with this magnificent piece. He made that organ thunder, til I thought the building would collapse. Wonderful.
Rarely has this piece been played so well, Bravo !!!!
I like her style. Great rhythm changes and not afraid to hold that last note. Plays to the building's acoustics.
THANK YOU for paying attention to the acoustics of the venue. You let the phrase decay in the space instead of rushing through the piece and turning it into mush.
The venue dictates the phrasing and the tempo ultimately and so many organists never understand and just dump too many notes into the venue faster than it can "absorb".
This is the mark of a talented organist.
very insightful comment I have never considered!
I agree.
This whole thing is rushed. Try this one:
ua-cam.com/video/FHNLdHe8uxY/v-deo.html
@@SkippyRo it depends on the organ, the venue, and the recording setup. There is no "right answer".
@@SkippyRo Ah, yes. I see what you mean.
Not only a massive organ, but massive talent. The manual dexterity is unreal.
BRAVO

MAGIA . TO JEDYNA WERSJA KTÓREJ ODSŁUCHAŁEM DO KOŃCA :)
I also heard it to the end. For comparison find a Daniel Chorzempa rendition here on YT! You just might hear that to the end.
That's exactly what I do.
Thank you ma'am@@berndheiden7630
Crying like a baby to this. Having played in York Minster and the Royal Albert hall when I was 15, but sadly "losing my religion" to motorcycles and woman at that age, music took back stage to my life. Now I realised what I lost but at least I can again start to play in my retirement which is only a few years away. Thank you for this wonderful rendition of what is the possibly the best organist piece in the world, on one of the best real pipe organs in the world. God bless x
Good for you! Retirement is a grand time to take things up again, or to make even more time for things you already do (if grandchildren don't upset your plans, but they are a joy too!). Best of luck and have a super Christmas!
@@Telthecelt thank you for your kind comments, merry Christmas to you too!
Good luck. I'm still trying to learn 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' on a little Casio keyboard.
it must have not been an easy choice to make when you were young, any advice for someone in their early 20's? Thanks!
Une page musicale mondialement connue et non sans raison ! Incontestablement de toute beauté . Bach dans toute sa splendeur . Un immense bravo à cette jeune organiste . Du talent certes, mais aussi énormément de travail pour arriver à une telle maîtrise de son instrument . Il en faut de la coordination entre le cerveau , les mains et les pieds pour créer une mélodie aussi harmonieuse . C'est presque incroyable ce que l' Homme parvient à faire avec de la passion et des efforts journellement répétés ...pendant de longues années !! Ces musiciens, grands ou petits, méritent vraiment toute notre admiration !
Bien analysé, Michèle ! Magistrale interprétation de cette magistrale composition !
Bravo ! When I was little, I went with my brother Sigurd Malfait to the local church in Kortrijk, where he played this piece, and I turned the pages...
Никогда не видела орган с такого ракурса, очень сложный инструмент, игра завораживает.
Самое любимое произведение Баха, исполнительца бесподобно его исполнила, браво!
Игра очень завораживает
Bellissima e bravissima
Keep in mind that the action of the keys are much more pronounced than what you see on more "modern" organs. It takes extra concentration to push the keys down just a bit further to get the sound. If you notice on the close ups, there's even a bit of a bounce with the keys when they reset, which will feel different. Each nuance makes a difference. Every organ has it's own personality in aesthetics, action, and sound. Magnificent.
All manuals have Barker levers to lighten the touch. No need to push keys all that hard.
In my city there is a city auditorium that has one of only 4 Model Opus 904 organs in existence. Costs thousands of dollars (USD) to maintain that beautiful piece of musical art. I was in one of the pipe chambers. Some of those pipes were 3 stories tall. I love the old air driven organs. They have a unique character of sound. The organ is an Ernest M. Skinner Opus 904. Over 4,600 pipes and 54 stops. It was commissioned in 1933 by Doctor W.K. Kellogg.
I’ve no doubt that this organ is just part of a very complex mechanism, you can imagine the massive pipe work and associated mechanisms, truly fabulous sound.
@@tonyv8925 Are you in or around Battle Creek? I would love to see (and hear) that organ!
@@tonyv8925 obrigado pela informação, tem algum link a respeito?
Beautiful and perfect performing in the hands of an angel. She is outstanding and supreme, owner of the divine spark.
Are you sure? As best I can tell it is in the hands and the feet of an angel.
This what we call MUSIC and what the populas wants to hear. Damn this is Epic. Love the video. Stay Safe. 🧨
I was in awe the whole time! Never even seen a woman play an organ and then this magnificent performance! This was phenomenal! What a wonderful lady
@luukdeboer1974 Virgin.
Diese Orgel, diese Musik, diese Organistin... haben mir eine Träne entlockt.
Wahrlich ein Instrument eines Gottes würdig...
I don't know about your @ but still think basically you're right
Very nice music!❤❤
And just think, no civilization in the world has surpassed this single instance of Western civilization from centuries past. Just one of many.
The building, the window, the instrument, the sound, the music.
@SBCBears Western civilization began in the Reformation era, previously just like in the first century Greece which was busy collecting relics and mystical things in the church.
So beautiful that it makes me cry. Thanks Liene, thanks J.S. Bach.
This leaves me in total awe! Of the organ, the unbelievable talent of the young lady and especially of Bach.
How on Earth can you play with both hands and feet at the same time...AMAZING!
Three hands and feet. Her assistant got on the pedals at least once, threw switches at the proper times...and flipped the sheet music.
Practice...practice...practice. AND excellent teachers. And most importantly...God's gift of talent.
Easily, if you love the music and identify with it.
It's just like riding a motorcycle. An awful lot nicer to listen too but it's another skill you learn. Just remember not to filter lanes with your pipe organ.
For fun, Bach used to write folk dance pieces that the organist was required to dance the actual steps of the dance on the pedals while playing. Just for fun.
Piękna muzyka, wspaniały instrument we wspaniałej katedrze no i genialna organistka !
Слушая такую божественную музыку происходит катарсис души. БРАВО исполнительнице такого сложного произведения!
вы недостойны слушать музыку людей, животные-террористы должны слушать вой на болотах.
er ist 1750 gestorben
Bravo Madam. That rendition touched my heart and soul.
I took a class on the organ works of Bach at Stanford. Stanford cathedral has a tracker organ ( manual) and an electronic organ. The organ master at the cathedral taught the class. He devoted one class to this piece, playing short passages and stopping to discuss what Bach was doing in that passage. The class begged him to play the whole piece, but he declined. The next class, he walked in and said he was too busy for class, but would play one piece. He told us to go down to the lower floor of the cathedral, and he cut loose on this piece. I thought he was going to shatter the stain glass windows. One of the most memorable moments of my life. I also saw Virgil Fox play this on his tour with the electroic organ.
What a blessing that had to be!
Wow, what a fabulous memory to have❤❤❤
Wow. What an experience that must have been!♥♥♥
Разговор с Бог!!!
Who was the organ master?
I remember our music teacher, Mr Devoti playing this on the church organ. Holy Family, Small Heath, Birmingham. Must have been around 70, 71. He was so talented, I appreciate music to this day because of his passion and influence
When the piece (AND the instrument) is so complex that not only does it take both your hands both your feet to deliver it, it takes an entire ADDITIONAL HUMAN to manipulate the instrument accordingly. Amazing.
Bravo !!! Beautifully played; Beautiful sound recording; Beautiful church scenes and Beautiful Liene!
Unglaublich wie Sie spielt. Ich bin völlig begeistert von dieser Darbietung. 👍
So beautiful! Thank you!!! Lai dzīvo brīva Latvija!!!!!
Le plus grand et génial compositeur, allié à l'élégance de l'interprétation de Liene Andreta Kalnciema, c'est magnifique.
Tak😊
Thank you J.S.B., Liene, Riga. So so so nice. I love it. Pavel from Czech rep.
