Those might be the most beautiful 8’ principals I’ve ever heard. Thanks for the recording!

There simply aren’t enough superlatives to describe this beautiful instrument.

I knew that this was an important organ, Meister Karosi, but because of its restrained appearance, does not command an immediate "presence" in the mind of the viewer. But your masterly demonstration - so very well recorded - dispelled any lingering reservations and showed why Bach himself longed for an organ by Silbermann.

An absolute fine organ by Silbermann! This is an early Christmas gift. Very glad Albrecht Koch showed you this in Freiberg.

Oh boy. We in the major leagues now! Looking forward to this.

Just wonderful. Would be a joy to play Baroque repertoire. Amazing it has remained intact.

The sound of every single line of pipes is a masterpiece. The entire church sounds like a harmonic case. You are in the organist's paradise. Thank you for sharing it.

One cannot beat the bright mixtures & tuning! 😊

What amazing harmony between all three divisions! Only the old masters knew how to cut off everything unnecessary in order to achieve such harmony. Thank you very, very much, dear Balint!

What the pearls of organ world! Both Organist and the instrument !

And another wow: all the sounds are breathtaking- yet the Oberwerk Principal is to die for ❤

Such a privilege to play this wonderful Organ. Thank you for your demonstration.

Outstanding demonstration. Hopefully, your recital be recorded and made available. Thank you for sharing these magnificent instruments with us!

Thanks BK & have a great recital. No wonder that this organ is so famous - so much beautiful character & blend ☺️

The Vox Humana" (19'14), it's the most incredible sound i ever have heard on a pipe organ! Incredibly beautiful and realistic!

Your videos amaze me! I learn something new every time. I don't understand how someone can keep a "sound memory" of all the combinations.

I love the taste of the Musical Offering at the end.

Absolutely marvellous instrument. I don't have words to describe the emotions this organ is able to create for me.

Thank you for a wonderful demonstration of this magnificent instrument. Especially appreciated as I have next to no chance of ever visiting Freiberg.

Thank you so very much for demonstrating this incredible organ!! It’s got an extraordinary variety of tone. And what a vast and warm acoustic, too.

Amazing organ, wonderful playing - keep it up!

Three hundred years old, and sounds as good as, or better than, any Bach-style organ built since then.

Fantastisch, ik kijk er naar uit.

Thanks!

How precious!

What a great video. I love seeing all the detailed views. I've listened to countless recordings of this organ for nearly 40 years. It is a true masterpiece. Thank you for all your work on these videos!

Beautiful organ love the full sound I believe a digital organ builder should hear this organ may change their mind on reverb

KÖSZÖNÖM SZÉPEN!

Woow, what a great surprise. My dream is still that you do a full demonstration of the Arp Schnitger organ in Hamburg St Jacobi

Grazie per queste prove,questo strumento in particolare ha una voce bellissima!

Ich glaube, ich habe Sie am Ende eines Konzerts in Freiberg im Jahr 2019 getroffen, wir haben über den Brand in Notre Dame de Paris gesprochen. Ich hoffe, bald wiederzukommen, um den fabelhaften Orgeln Sachsens zu lauschen. Deins ist großartig.

Gracias de nuevo Balint. Solo una demostración así es capaz de enseñarnos toda la belleza de colores y matices, de dulzura y de poder de este magnífico instrumento. 👏👏😊

This was the first virtual organ I bought many decades ago, long before Hauptwerk. The clarity of this organ is astounding. No 250 rank monster can compare to the beauty of this instrument.

The most amazing sounds are when up to 1-2 (or 3) stops are active :)

An amazing organ in an amazing acoustic! Everything is voiced perfectly for the room and the organ has such a rich sound. I especially love the French-style reeds! Thanks for this amazing demonstration!

Eine der besten Aufnahmen und noch an so einer wunderschönen Orgel ❤

Greetings from Tucson, Arizona USofA This organ is glorious!

The action is superb. Thanks very much for your demonstration, Maestro. Merrowyn

Thank you very much for this video and for showing us that incredible instrument. Greetings from Spain.

Amazing pedal solo, its very powerfuel when you add some big reeds and mixture, amazing!

First time for me to hear such quick Tremulant

Sono considerati universalmente i migliori organi!

I don't know why I didn't receive this notify otherwise I'm already subscibed. Bha YT f**k algorithm. Thank Balint of this demonstration and sharing. Retirn spring could be an invention to help the organist in the past but a risk for a life of instrument! Amazing the low frequency of open/close the tremulant. It was an emotion to play Bach on this masterpiece of story. Have you and all us organists an happy new year fill of music!

very good

O órgão de tubos é realmente incrível! Vejam, com a utilização do stop "Vox Humana", as parecenças com as vozes de um coro! Não é uma gravação! INCRÍVEL!

What a great sounding organ! Over 300 years old. Wow!

wow , thanks for the demonstration !

It' s one great organ and the church have normal eco , good for to listen music of organ.

What glorious tones! Oh for the opportunity to play this instrument... 🤩

Beautiful

Your demonstrations of the organ are the best ever

The reed are great. Next stop - Groningen

Brilliant organ in Freiburg Cathedral. I had the privilege of playing it in 1988, for about an hour or so. German organists are so generous in letting foreigners play their organs, providing one is a professional or at least competent. They are truly blest in having these organs still working and that they weren't bombed in WW2. Merrowyn Deacon 🎵

Thank you for sharing this!

OMG! And this is only the sound from the loudspeakers of my computer. Next destination: Freiberg!

What a beautiful instrument! Only the commercials aRe VERY annoting

Excellent demonstration thank you

What is the music? It is such a beautiful main theme melody. Thank you for this video

I like organ demos played by Balint Karosi😊

4:20 mi favourite and mixture

This organ is in a class of its own. Many new Bach organs were molded on it.

19:13 wow, the Vox Humana sounds like a human choir singing in the background.

Wow! The musical timbre of this instrument blows away any modern machine.

The principal here is totally different from other organs.

Amazing! What is the chorale tune you feature throughout this demo? I think I've played it, but I can't recall what it is.

Did Bach play this Organ? What City of Germany is located this Organ?

Suono eccezionale

How do I nor know about this spectacular instrument? I know; I'm not an organist.

❤

What is the music?

c'est une merveille, merci de nous faire écouter tous ces jeux décomposés puis mixés. On perçoit toutes les différences entre la conception et les sonorités françaises et allemandes, c'est vraiment très instructif. Surtout quand vous faites entendre les jeux à la française : cromorne, trompette, voix humaine etc... Je vous soumets le lien d'un enregistrement d'Emmanuel Arakélian, titulaire du célèbre orgue Isnard de St Maximin en France : il joue ici JS Bach sur un orgue récent en imitation de ceux de Gottfried Silbermann, esthétiquement et musicalement. C'est extrêmement plaisant ! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZudibNjnpuvZY0.html

was this organ played by Johann Sebastian Bach ? According to history, Bach inaugurated a Silbermann Organ.

Many years ago I had a "complete" Bach collection on lp. The accompanying literature mentioned one of Silbermann organ cases using up almost the entire organ budget. Would this be that instrument? I noticed the case is quite ornate.

Did JSB play this organ

That vox humana is unearthly
