This is wonderful, listening to pieces like these live on a powerful organ in a cathedral is an unbeatable experience.

I've heard it played by an organ and liked a couple renditions, except for when they use an overpowering reed stop in place of a singer, which completely ruins it.

There's a lot of great music I'd post, but I personally draw the line when the performance is in the sanctuary. It's just too distracting knowing some churches have been converted into concert halls.

Post all of the great music, don't hold back!

Yeah it's a shame how many of the churches are just concert halls but when it's in a protestant church it doesn't bother me because i don't think God was ever really there in the first place.

There is a Catholic Cathedral in my city dating back to the 12th century, it was taken over by protestants during the reformation and now they host concerts in the sanctuary and sell beer during them.
