Sitting at this organ after 6 months of playing must feel like jumping into a Formula 1 cockpit right after getting your driver's license... but you handled it so well, you damn well deserve your racing license to stick with that picture!

@@CharlieOrgan I'll say, that for playing for less than a year, you have a level of accomplishment that many, playing for years, have yet to achieve. Astounding gift you have. Treasure it and nurture it to its fullest; you'll very soon be a world-renowned concert organist.

Charlie - this was VERY well done! I love how you "meshed" the videos together but the music stayed seamless. This prelude and fugue was the first one I learned when I was around 12 or 13 myself! Keep going - we need organists! I'm jealous that you got to play the Tabernacle organ - always a bucket list item! LOL :)

Thank you Jeff! It blew me away that they let me play The Tabernacle Organ. I found out quickly how welcoming and close nit the organ community is. It is always so amazing to see the magnificent instruments built by the master craftsman that came before us! I will keep practicing my organ, but I love my piano too. Please check out my piano videos on my other channel (Charlie's Piano) too if you can. Thanks!

I wanted to play the organ since I was about 4 here in the UK. I'm 78 now and have been playing all that time and still get huge pleasure and satisfaction from it. Itbis a bit of a niche occupation, of course, but for me it's almost an addiction. You make a great sound, my friend, and I wish you success and enjoyment. 😊

Charlie, you are awesome! And what a seriously awesome experience. I started playing the organ when I was 13, but I was never this lucky to play all these amazing pipe organs at your age. The first pipe organ I played was actually in Idaho at the Tabernacle in a little town called Paris (I was 13 at the time). I'm glad I got to meet you at the workshop this year, ever so briefly. I hope you keep learning, practicing, and flourishing on the organ. You've got a talent - and you can go far with it! It looks like you have awesome parents that are supportive of you as well, so don't take that for granted! Not everyone has that, and you're blessed to have such amazing experiences such as this. I had to stop taking lessons when I was around 15 as I developed several severe health problems that caused me to be unable to practice for years. So I ended up going a different direction with my career into the computer science field. But I still play and started picking it back up several years ago by starting to practice again, and making videos to help myself improve. I now teach on the side and have a 10 year old student learning the organ. Your videos are inspiring to me - it reminds me that despite the trials we go through in life, it's still possible to achieve great things if we work hard and put effort into it. And it makes me want to practice more! I hope you can continue to develop this wonderful skill you have - who knows, maybe you could become a world famous organist someday!! Keep making videos too, it's awesome to see your progress and it will help you see how you can improve. 🙂

Let me ask you when you had the ability to play such a grand instrument did tears come to your eyes and your heart felt like it gonna burst. When I play the organ at Notre Dam some 50 yrs ago, I played Ave Maria, Schubert. How the heck I got through it amazed me, but I was drenched in tears at the end. When you play music remember you are Thanking Our CREATOR for the talents HE has given us. May all around the world know our love for HIM is endless as HIS love for us is from the begining of time to the end of this world. Pax+

I had the pleasure of playing a harpsicord like 40 yrs ago, talk about a challenge. But keep playing. Music in my book is a Divine Prayer to Our CREATOR and is from your heart and soul THANKING HIM each time you play a note. So learn music and you pray a lot more. God Bless you all Pax+

I wonder if the similarity you are hearing between them is due to the way an iPhone processes the audio since they were all recorded on an iPhone.
