Hi Krummhorn - Hi Giwro,
Check this dude out - he does an improvisation that includes the Navy Hymn *Eternal Father, Strong to Save*:

Gosh - everytime I hear that hymn I break down and sob because it is so solemn, majestic, and beautiful.
Hey, this forum uses Navy rank titles...
Cheers,
Corno

Hi Corno Dolce,
What a most splendid improv on this hymn. Yes, I also get very emotional even when playing it at services. This performance was very majestic - to have been there would have been so very inspiring.

Corno - thanks for sharing that ... what a wonderful instrument in Holland, is the builder the Scandinavian (Danish) firm?
Hello Contratrombone64,
Yes sir, the organ is made by Danish firm of Marcussen & Søn aka Marcussen/Zachariassen.
Personally, I never been too keen on their instruments but the organ used in the video is in the Groote te Sint Laurenskerk in Rotterdam and is spectacular. I really like it.
