J.S. Bach / Virgil Fox - Come Sweet Death, BWV 478 (Messina Cathedral organ)

Roberto Bertero at the Great Organ Tamburini of Messina Cathedral, Sicily (Italy).

In this video I am playing Virgil Fox's famous and touching arrangement of the chorale “Come, sweet death, come blessed rest” composed by J.S. Bach.
The peculiarity of this video is that I did not record it at the Santuario della Consolata Organ, but at the huge Tamburini Organ built in 1948 in Messina Cathedral, Sicily (Italy).
It is one of the largest and most prestigious instrument of my country, which now however requires a radical restoration.
For this occasion, since I own the audio and not the video track of this recording (taken during the rehearsals of a concert of mine in this prestigious venue), I’ve thought to provide a "spiritual commentary" on the music with some of my photographs taken in the last years during my hiking expeditions on the Alps.

The sound has be captured with Zoom H5 audio recorder (96kHz / 24bit).
