    Beautiful rendition in a beautiful location! I loved the variety of tone colors that were used. I've always loved how the organ can sound so gentle at times, so forceful at times, but always majestic. I felt the spirit of God in this rendition. Wonderful job!

    1 Alleluia! Sing to Jesus;
    His the scepter, His the throne.
    Alleluia! His the triumph,
    His the victory alone.
    Hark! The songs of peaceful Zion
    thunder like a mighty flood;
    "Jesus out of ev'ry nation
    has redeemed us by His blood.
    2 Alleluia! Not as orphans
    are we left in sorrow now.
    Alleluia! He is near us;
    faith believes, nor questions how.
    Though the cloud from sight received Him
    when the forty days were o'er,
    shall our hearts forget His promise,
    "I am with you evermore"?
    3 Alleluia! Bread of heaven,
    here on earth our food, our stay.
    Alleluia! Here the sinful
    flee to You from day to day.
    Intercessor, Friend of sinners,
    earth's Redeemer, hear our plea
    where the songs of all the sinless
    sweep across the crystal sea.

    This is one of my favorite hymns in the canon. Stephen does a wonderful job here and unlike other organists, he does not do too much noodling around (a term one of my organists used in the past) when he improvises on the principle melody. It's very nice to see how he respects the limits of the text as it matches with the music, and he doesn't go too far afield to demonstrate his abilty to make his instrument sing to its best capacity. It's been said that the most versatile instrument is the organ, and Mr. Buzzard certainly shows that here. I enjoyed his performance here. Well done!

    Stephen Buzard is a phenomenal organist, and is now the assistant organist at St. Thomas' Episcopal Church on Fifth Avenue in New York City. His father, John-Paul Buzard, is an accomplished and successful organ builder in Urbana, Illinois. Stephen's degrees are from Westminster Choir College (where I earned my MM in conducting a lonnnng time before he got there) and his MM from Yale.
    The tune name is spelled Hyfrydol, though. Great Welsh hymn!

    As an ear and heart musician, I had often seen this hymn listed but since the only note I recognize is middle C, I couldn't figure out the tune. I found by hearing it that it is a tune I am familiar with since I only play hymns. The lyrics I am familiar with are to the hymn, "Jesus, what a Friend for Sinners.". I do like his style.

    Stephen, an awesome rendition of a classic hymn tune that never gets old (there are a few different sets of lyrics set to this tune because it sounds so good)! As for that console, I have never seen a tilting tablet console with two sets of tabs above the manuals like that! However, you had your combination pistons set up to where you didn't have to flip tabs on and off while playing as this could he confusing the way it is designed. The only other organ that is similar is at Wanamaker's (Macy's) Central City Flagship Store in Philadelphia (their stop tabs are on tall side jambs and they have seven manuals between them)! Also, that swell manual appears too close to the tilting tablets to play on without hitting tablets unintentionally? However, with playing all on great and pedal, that isn't a problem. Anyhow, a good organ beats a great piano any day (just the smoothness of the music is so much nicer to listen to and sing to)!
