Alexander Sevastian – Bach’s Organ Toccata and Fugue in D minor
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
Wow! That really is something special!
Info on the artist and his instruments https://behindtheblack.com/
An amazingly talented man who certainly went down a road less travelled (but he was from Canada). He passed six years or so ago.
I have seen this video, but, such artistry. He is seeing the music.
‘Verily, my lord, ’tis witchcraft!’
An exquisite performance on a complicated instrument of a centuries old masterpiece. Brought tears to my eyes, can’t imagine what it was like to see and hear live. A little slice of heaven. One of your better, maybe the best, evening pauses.
As is frequently the case: Something I would never have even considered. Thanks.
