Although I'm not religious, I LOVE the sound of Catholic chants! :)

Such as "The Miracle" and "The Resurrection" from Xenogears. Anyone know what I'm talking about? :P

Yeah, we have a CD with that. It's okay. I don't really go to church. But I love the organ, it sounds so... huge. Does that make sense? :lol:

Church organs are cool. I have a piece of Bach which is played on a church organ. I like it.

Two of my fav church organ pieces by Bach. I'm working on the latter. :P But for solo piano instead... I want to learn organ!

Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV565 ( I think ) (http://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/MIDI/Bach/Toccata/01Toccata_&_Fugue.mid)

Fugue in G minor ( BWV 578 ) (http://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/MIDI/Bach/FugueBWV578/01Fugue.mid)

Those fugues... hm, they're often played on organ, but I don't know if that would be classed as "cathedral" music... :mellow: Are you talking about secular music?

I play organ... ish... But only hymns and stuff. :heh: I don't mind some "cathedral" music, although something that is really loud on a huge organ... wah. X_X

My music teacher went to Germany to see a pipe organ concert, see took a picure of the hall and it was stunning, it was like this tiny little person and the pipes were so huge.

I lov this type of music~~
The blend of the voices and the organ can create...a really strong...how should a say it..."mood" :think: . Let's just say "one wing angel" will NOT sound as freaky without the voices..or something like that :doh:

Xenosaga mmmm...nice taste DEFINATLY one of my favs :drool: (wished i have the cd though :sweatdrop: )
Aside from Xenogears and Xenosaga my favourites will have to be from the final fantasys!
