A Bach Gem From YouTube

As many of you know, you can find virtually anything on YouTube — some of excellent quality and some that is mediocre.  One particular organist that I enjoy listening to (and watching) is Rob Stefanussen.  His most recent video is of Bach’s Wachet Auf — an obligatory favorite of organists and non-organists alike.  Take a few minutes and enjoy this great piece.  The videography is detailed and covers the finger and pedal work.

Organists take note: you might be envious of this practice organ.  He’s playing a 4 manual digital organ running Hauptwerk (a robust software program that “runs” the virtual pipe organ) with touch screen stop jams.  A very versatile instrument.   I’ll remain content with my 2-manual Allen practice organ.
