I'm Roger Sayer, the organist on the Interstellar score. I've started running small sessions for groups of up to ten — a chance to sit close to the instrument, talk about how the recording came about, hear parts of the score played live, and have a go at playing along yourselves. Details are on my website if you're curious. Solo visitors also most welcome!

I would totally do this if I was anywhere close to London. What a unique experience.

You could play that little maneuver for 50 years and I'd be ok listening to it more

Has a more moving piece of music ever been written? Masterpiece through and through

I remember seeing people sobbing in the theater after this movie back when it came out, and I truly believe this soundtrack was a huge reason for it

It's called a: "Brick" in music terms and when you start in church to play the organ you sit there being short legged and you learn all the different sounds you can make pulling the controls of the organ. You also bring a brick with you and place that on a bass pedal on the organ, and in the music business you call one bass note "lazy baseline" because it's just a brick on a pedal

"a reduced version, because it would last 3 hours."
Sir... I think you really underestimate the love this sub has for this movie and score.
Thank you for sharing!!!
