Love this guy.
Very fun Mark and Matìas. Thank you for the entertainment as I travel today!
*A* *M*I*L*L*I*O*N* *S*T*A*R*S* all my flavorites! I love the dry sound without a hint of basement wall bounce. That is special Mark, and so well played.
Super excellent with very good interesting video
Clever. Creative. Loved it!
Just wonderful!
Thank you!
this was an absolute treat for the ears. I hope to hear more music from you in the future. keep it up.
More please.
Brilliant! Thank you for posting.
The perfect combination of organist and instrument. This is very reminiscent of Lee Erwin and the Moon River shows. Please keep up the good work and don’t change a thing.
Well done Mark, many thanks for your playing. Outstanding!
WOW.....thank you....
Fun production and beautiful music - what a combo! New Sun in the Sky - one of my favorites! Thank you
Marvelous recording. So many ranks of sound possibility packed into a 3 manual Wurlitzer console. Great announcer in Matías Bombal.
Thank you for the wonderful music!
Wow, Mark, if youre ever in Milwaukee could you teach me some technicque? I play classical and theater organ. You and Walt Strony rule!! Funny to hear an organ like this dry. Its like leon Berry's basement wurly!
I'm 3 weeks late but following you now
Excellent, Mark!
THIS WAS FANTASTIC!!!!!
Wow -- I really enjoyed this. A treat from a time when music was fresh, clear and encouraging. You really have to appreciate the skills of this fine musician on this instrument too. Thanks for posting it.
Just discovered this wonderfull channel!
Thanks! Enjoyed!
I love everything about this!!! What's that crazy 16' manual reed?! Awesome.
That’s a very unusual stop! It’s a 16’ extension to the Kinura (built custom for this organ by Trivo in Hagerstown, MD. It’s right behind the swell shades and gets out well. It’s quite raunchy… Isn’t it wonderful?! :-)
@@markhermanmusic It's so powerful for a regal stop though! Such fun clownlike sort of contrabassoon-like sound. I'm so totally captivated by this entire sound world, the music, and the style of playing. In Sweden and the rest of Europe these organs hardly exist at all. I know there's a smaller Wurlitzer in Stockholm that somehow survived being thrown out of a cinema and then being moved around several times, now sitting in a former reactor hall (!) of the Royal Institute of Technology, but I don't think there's anyone in this country who can play in this style, sadly. Maybe you'd wanna make a little video demonstrating the different typical stops, and how you combine them to create these typical sounds? It's so different from a traditional church or concert hall organ
Cute open ! And as always, superb artistry !!!! Hope you can return to the Carma console soon !!!
This was GREAT. Thank you. Any idea where a history of the Wurlitzer Corporation might be on the internet?
Very very very nice!!!! Great songs and fantastic performances.
But if I may (controversy here I know!! lol) a smidgen of reverb? Maybe in post-prod? It is rather "dry" for my liking 😁
Who's version of "nola" was in the beginning?
Paul Whiteman
@@markhermanmusic thank you much!
its too bad the pipe organ (including digital organs of today) play best the ole dated stuff. That's not a slam....its just that the organ never really evolved from its silent movie era. We know even some silent movie performers never made the grade to 'talkies'. They too grew 'silent', along with the silent movies...and the organs that accompanied. Really sad. i play pipe and digital organs (and love the piano too) but wonder what will become of our 'love' for these organs. Even churches are generally moving on or away from organ. Makes me sad. Why all this in view of this marvelous video>?? Well...these marvelous organ presentations are all based in the same song era genre. Artistry is not the issue in my opinion....in fact I compare musicians to the extent that 'One is not better than another. JUST DIFFERENT!" No. Its the old tune thing...same ole. OH WELL! IT IS WHAT IT IS. Let's just enjoy the ride??
