WAYNE MARSHALL PLAYS SCHMIDT AND WIDOR AT ST SULPICE 

Exactly!^^😁👍😆👍

I love his Chaconne in C Sharp Minor

@@fluteharmonique8 Rated by Walter Pach as the greatest single work in the entire organ literature. Wheter it is or not, it is probably the most difficult. A manual technique equal to the demands of the Brahms B-flat Piano Concerto is maybe halfway to the demands of the Chaconne. And don't forget the pedals, too. International Ballroom is a literal walk in the park by comparison.

hahaha that made me laugh A LOT!

sharing the legendary bench with the legendary Daniel Roth :)

Mighty is right...wow

Hi Adrian! It’s been too long since we last spoke. Hope you are well my friend. Let’s catch up!

There were several designers for this instrument. It was originally built in the 18th century, but when Cavaille-Coll rebuilt it in the 19th century much of this pipework was retained. This includes much of the reeds and mixtures as well as some of the flue work. Cavaille-Coll believed in respecting and integrating much of the pipework he inherited. This is true of many of his instruments but in the case of St Sulpice as much as 40% of the pipework is 18th century Clicquot. This explains the fiery nature of the reeds and the brilliance of the mixtures. Due to this fact the organ of St Sulpice has a very special nature and can only really be appreciated in person. It stands as the largest instrument ever built by Cavaille-Coll, with 102 stops and over 7,000 pipes.

@@ds1868 thank you for a wonderfully informative response👍

@@m6j159 You're welcome! I hope you can hear this instrument in person, so much better than recordings.

Justement trop supersonique...

Porque "Brasil" ??? O que isso tem a ver com o Brasil?

@@guessouiam7738 Simples: o elogio veio de um brasileiro. Para eles é de grande valia. Um abraço.

Yes it's certainly cold in the church as there is little heating. It's a vast building and the cost to heat is prohibitive. Tuning is also a huge exercise with over 7,000 pipes. The reeds as usual but the 18th century mixtures need careful attention.

It is said his ashes shall be merged with the dust within mecanism and pipes

@@guessouiam7738 ahahahahahahah

It's written at 118 bpm in 4/2 time.

And that's how the composer defined its allegro.

Fast enough to play Widor's Toccata at nearly double speed and still hear what you're doing lol
