I remember getting the chance when I was a young inexperienced man to play that magnificent organ - I went ffff until I discovered the multiverse of strings section - just bliss ❤
Simply wonderful! Sir William's transcription is most definitely not for the faint-hearted! It's tricky, to say the least. I think that's why so many organists play it far too fast - to exhibit their dexterity. We've all heard the infamous Wdor Toccata ruined by break-neck performances! Clara's pace here is perfect. Stately enough so that ALL the complex writing and harmonies are to the fore. Thank you SO much. Having studied a great deal about "Sweet Sir William" (Princess Margaret!) I feel sure THIS is a performance of which he'd approve!!
je vous ai quitté il y a quelques minutes dans des enregistrements de JS Bach, je vous retrouve ici dans un genre musical très différent, que vous servez à merveille. Merci beaucoup !
Clara, you are absolutely amazing. It's rare to find a person who embodies the music itself, but it seems like the Woolsey organ is an extension of your hands and the perfect vehicle to communicate such profound music. And I always admire extraordinary memory such as yours - I think being off the score gives one much more freedom in interpretation, and it seems like you've successfully mastered that aspect as well. 🙂 I subscribed!!

Absolutely stunning. What an amazing performance and such command of the instrument. All without the music! Well done 👏
The best performance of Orb and Scepter on UA-cam! Bravo!
You are a very talented musical person Looking forward for other works.
I'm slowly working my way along your repertoire, this is wonderful...can't wait for the Messiaen!
Likewise. And the Vidor toccatta of course.
