Two MASTERS on two instruments I admire.

bach è tutto, ANCHE ritmo, e la vita è ritmo! complimenti!

I often wonder what music J S Bach would do today especially with MOOG Synthesizers and all the technology we have ... I bet he would be in his element

[michaelduron]

Marvelous collaboration between two fine artists! Danke Herr Lutz fur sein Kunst!

TOTALLY FREAKIN AWESOME!!! I’m a devoted organ fan. Just not really a traditionalist when it comes to Bach. I favor the French school of repertoire and improvisation, symphonic transcriptions and theatre organ but I am definitely in the camp where new innovations in arrangements and thinking outside the box when it comes to the organ is perfectly ideal any time of the day. The organ world needs to be saved from itself. Many of the comments in this thread will nitpick this video to death as not being proper, perfect or in keeping with tried and true tradition. Thank god for progressive advocates of the instrument for expanding the scope of the instruments possibilities in its future like Virgil Fox and Cameron Carpenter and others who have championed new uses for the instrument in the face of diehard square traditionalists who think the instrument should definitely remain in the 1700s!

Eine super schöne Interpretation und Symbiose aus Orgel und Drums. Was ganz anderes, mutig und gelungen. Mir gefällt es sehr gut! 👍

[joachimhelmut]

Fantastisch, von beiden gespielt. Weiter so, ich liebe Bach und die Orgel.

i'm here in 2024 and i do have something to say to all you conservative Organ People: As a long time Pianist and Organist and developing Drummer i think this is the coolest thing ever. I would bet a lot of Money that Bach would go just as Nuts over this as i went when i first saw this. After all, he was a Pioneer and experimentalist in his time and to use his Music in this kind of way just seems to make sense

[SylvioKnechtel]

Tolles Zusammenspiel, einfach Klasse, passt

[donaldzimmermann]

This is one of the finest videos I have ever seen! BRAVO! Not only the musicians but the camera work and editing. I have known of Herr Lutz for years and have watched his masterful recordings of all the Bach cantatas, and here he is having such a great time! And Orlando: you are a spectacular percussionist! The nuances and variety you get out of your drums and cymbals are beyond belief. I am a "traditional" church choir director and organist but enjoy what world-class musicians do to stretch the limits! Thanks so much!
