Prelude BWV 846 by JS Bach, also well known as Charles Gounod’s “Ave Maria”

99% of the time I play the organ for Mass, but the parish where I played today has a nice piano so I thought I’d do something different (for me) and share a video of me playing one of my favorite things to play on the piano.

This is my arrangement of Prelude BWV 846 by JS Bach, also well known as Charles Gounod’s “Ave Maria.”

Amazing, beautiful and talented! Thank you. You came up randomly in my scrolling and now I'm enjoying your concert here on YouTube. Just wanted to say how incredible this is to listen to along with your organ playing and singing. Rock on!
