Black Dyke Band plays Toccata from Organ Symphony No. 5 - Brass-Gala 2016 (7) 

play at 0.75 speed, it's about perfect there.

What? How? Incredible brass playing. I cannot even imagine what the cornet parts look like. Total respect.

A bit too fast for my taste, but HOLY VIRTUOSITY, BATMAN! If you got it, flaunt it!

Awesome

Don't understand a single one of the comments about the too fast tempo. It's brilliantly played throughout - if I only could write fast enough i could write down every single note.

great ♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪ ♫♪ ♫♪great sound! ♫♪♫♪ ☺ ♥ ♫♪☺♫♪♫♪♫♪☺ BRAVISSIMO @bisbis 🎶🎵🎼 great music! a well tuned ensemble that sounds like an organ ! Fabulous banding

Super as usual!

Very fast and very good!! Interesting to see that they didn't use a substitute player for the backrow. I'm sure there are plenty of capable players in Switzerland.

Con strumenti a fiato...difficilissimo perché a velocità supersonica

Marvelous playing, musicianship, articulation, and control. Widor would have been thrilled to hear this.

I was getting so low with the basses I had to get up off the floor, WONDERFUL

Honestly I usually prefer pieces like this (and also specifically this on the organ), to be played a bit slower... But holy sh*t this is fucking amazing and i wouldn't have it any other way. The articulation is totally on point and to anyone who is saying that the detail is lost, it deffinitely isn't in this performance. Love it!

Damnit, the whole performance is incredible. Compared to a good pipe organ performance, this is equally a good, just different.

That tempo is more about the skill of the players. Like how fast you can have sex. Not satisfaction, just accomplishment.

Never meant to be played that fast.

Phaaaa

Why so fast, detail is lost I feel

Peter yo copy evrything in right way. Perfect.All. soli deo gloria

Too fast to be an accurate interpretation, sounds disjointed in my opinion :(

Far too fast for me, but still amazing in its own right.

Widor himself never played it at this tempo. This is just grandstanding.

Too fast, same like Diane Bish ;)

Its way top fast, but very impressive

Lots of great comments but still to fast

Too fast, but nice.

Why so fast ??? Oh God they disjointed the Toccata ..........

Widor would cringe at hearing his music played at this tempo. The players seem more intent on demonstrating their technical skill rather than producing meaningful music!

The conductor would do well to hear how it should sound, this is too fast and a cacophony of noise.

Why do bands do this? It’s way too fast. And detail is lost. The brilliance of the piece depends on being able to hear the arpeggios rather than just flurries of indeterminate semiquavers. Organists can be just as guilty too.

This piece was intended to be played using the double beat metronome practice. This twat of a conductor is doing a "Gwen Stefani" and using single beat metronome practice. Charles Widor would be turning in his grave.

I think this is more a case of appreciating the skill of the players over the crap tempo chosen by the MD. I see a lot of hate directed to the players, who most of probably agree that the tempo is ridiculous!
