Adagio for Strings - Samuel Barber (arr. A. W. Morse)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgZyz0tTFjM&feature=youtu.be

Samuel Barber's *Adagio for Strings* is one of the most recognisable pieces in the classical music repertoire. This arrangement for the organ tries to imitate the string orchestra with undulating stops and strings. @klye requested this piece many months ago and I've finally got around to recording it.

This was recorded on the William Hill English Organ Model by Sonus Paradisi, using the Hauptwerk VPO software.

This is such a remarkable piece, and beautifully fits the organ! Your playing is excellent!

Samuel Barber is a special composer to me because he went to a high school in the same district as me (back then it was the only one). He actually composed that school's alma mater when he left for Curtis at the age of 15, and now all 3 high schools use the same Alma Mater with different words. [Here's a link to that if you are interested](https://steempeak.com/rgkmb/@rgkmb-unofficial/analysis-of-rustin-high-school-s-alma-mater-composed-by-our-very-own-samuel-barber). At 15, Barber's skill as a composer is astounding.

But thanks again for this performance!

Thanks so much for listening. I find playing Adagio works difficult because you really have to pay attention to the beat. I struggled a lot with this. Perhaps I could have even relaxed the tempo even more. So great that you have a connection to Samuel Barber!

Do you have any compositions for organ? I'd happily consider recording/playing  for you.

I am honored! I do not currently have any organ pieces, but I would love to try writing one. I would appreciate your suggestions on what type of piece to compose, and how long it should be. Thanks for this opportunity!
