Your playing is so wonderful! Your registration is really beautiful. I like the hymn arrangements by David Willcocks . How can I find the sheet music?

Does anyone know which book he is playing from?

Loved this!

We are doing a Nine Lessons and Carols in our home and intend on playing this as people enter. Thank you!

Dear Richard, I am enjoying this music again this advent, and my favourite remains God rest ye merry, gentlemen. That ending is sublime! Listening to it on repeat at the moment. Thank you!

Amazing, just amazing

Greetings, Richard. An excellent video, as always. Thank you. I realize that your entire existence does not revolve around pleasing me; nevertheless, it would please me greatly if you would cease playing the organ in your socks. It's unbecoming a professional, and it may lead aspiring organists to believe that it is OK to do so. It is not, of course. Granted, you are on the road and perhaps you forgot to pack your organ shoes; if that is the case, fine, but perhaps it would be a good idea to explain your situation n such cases.

Dear RM, Cheers for superlative music. How about some Australian carols?

No. 1. The three drovers
No. 2. The silver stars are in the sky (lullaby carol)
No. 3. Christmas day
No. 4. Carol of the birds
No. 5. Christmas bush for his adorning.

My soul soars❣️ Thank you Caroline & Richard ✝️🎼🎶🎵

wonderfull

Thank you so much sir for the organ music.🎶 I am trying to get in the Xmas spirit after a major procedure. I am doing well and back at work tomorrow. Thanks again. God is good all the time…

THANK YOU RICHARD FOR HIS WONDERFUL PROGRAM.

Just Beautiful - pieces I've not heard before.The John Ireland was just so amazing. I'm going to ask Linda Buzzard to play that at The Chapel of Saint John the Divine Champaign IL. She is the wife of John Paul Buzard Pipe Organ Chanpaign IL .

BEAUTIFUL & inspiring, right now, 2 days before Christmas 2023! Thank you Richard & Caroline, for all your wonderful , blessed programs. Merry Christmas to you & your two precious children!

A very happy Christmas and thank you for your wonderful playing. Blessings from Australia.

This is absolutely stunning from beginning to end. Beautiful music for Christmas Eve! And it ends with Widor's Toccata. This organ and Richard McVeigh are totally amazing! One thing I missed though. Where is St Edmundsbury Cathedral? 😃

Beautifully played and thank you Richard . Do have a Happy Christmas .

Thank you so much God bless you

This organ looks the size of a building to me! Excellent sound and playing, by the way.

So beautiful 😇😊❤👍👂Thank you for this, Richard McVeigh ❤💙💚💛💜

Actually, it's "God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen." "You" is accusative; "ye" is nominative. Since the pronoun is the direct object in this case, it must be "you." But I will give you credit for getting the comma in the right place. In the music books in my elementary school, the title appeared as "God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen." This mistake shows that whoever created that music book had no idea what the title means. Two words in the title are used in archaic ways. "Rest" in this instance means "keep," and "merry" means "holy." Therefore, the meaning in modern-day English would be "God keep you holy, gentlemen." This is also true of the phrase "Merry Christmas." We're not wishing people to be jolly during the holiday, we're wishing them to be holy. The same is true of the phrase "Merry old England." England used to be renowned for its holiness. God knows, that certainly isn't true today.

Von himmel hoch - A mighty fortress - Thank you Maestro ❣️

Widor Toccata - GLORIOUS - Thank you❣️

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🎄🎄🎄

So beautiful and wonderful. Thank you for this praise.

Thanks!

Excellent performance just wish he’d stop messing round with the stops every 2 seconds, it’s unnecessary.

❤

I Always wonder when the Church of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 will rejoin the Ordinariate for a truly united Christendom

What a major blessing you are to my ears and soul. I absolutely love everything you do and how you do it. God has certainly favored you with some wonderful gifts. Wow! Just wow! Oh, and Merry Christmas to you too!

I grew up singing these glorious Christmas Carol's, in church and in school.

I wish now that i had done music lessons. learning to read music, but no i was to young i thought. But i just got a beautiful organ the other day for free (as the guy was going to take it to land fill} and yes it is in my shed....It is a BALDWIN CINEMA 2 ORGAN and it sounds awesome.. I only play by ear {a lot of gospel songs} but so happy to have it.....cheers.:D

Amazing! Brings tears to my eyes! God Bless All!

how greatful sound ❤ this make me peaceful mind god bess you

Heel mooi orgel, en goed bespeeld...😊

Beautiful. Interesting to see someone playing without shoes. I couldn't.

I've just watched this again December 2024 to get me in the mood.

probably not many in churches in England these days to sing these, pray that they do, Jesus is all that will save this country. I wish badly to come there to do just that but takes a while to save up.

This guy is amazing -I never get tired of listening to his podcasts

Amen

Amen

We enjoy your programs Richard. Happy Christmas to you and yours. As for what is not in your program yet, you're still young. You have a new goal to add other pieces to your program. Make that your New Year's resolution. Enjoyed this program very much. Alabama
