This installment of Cathedral Ambience was performed by me in real time on my channel during a recorded livestream on February 2, 2024, using a sampled version of the organ in Pauluskirche in Ulm, Germany (using the amazing Hauptwerk software). The livestream had a few tech glitches that didn't provide for a perfect audio experience, so this is the "clean" version using the external recording I made during that program. To my knowledge, this was the first time "ambient organ music" has ever been intentionally played live with an active audience, and it was done right here on KZfaq, so you are hearing a premiere performance of this 100% improvised music.
Ambient music is a genre intended to help you relax and bring about a sense of calm. This version is my own twist on it, entitled "Cathedral Ambience," and I set out to create a sonic atmosphere that mimics the experience of you sitting in a massive cathedral, hearing the soft sounds of a quiet pipe organ floating through the ether of a sanctuary. As pipe organs are most often thought of as loud and menacing, my hope is that music like this puts the instrument in a unique light -- as one capable of delicate and gentle sounds, helping you to focus, study, meditate, or even drift off to sleep (please do take naps to this video, I highly encourage it!).
