Dong-ill Shin plays Bonnet's Variations de concert Op.1

[ftvelasco]

I just attended Maestro's Shin's Van Cliburn concert on this magnificent instrument earlier this evening. Spectacular performance! Dallas-Fort Worth has been blessed to have such a talented musician for the past six years.

I hear the influence of Widor in this, particulary towards the beginning there is a pedal part very reminiscent of a similar device used in the 'Allegro' from Widor's 6th Symphony.

@4candles Yes, it's in the 1st variation after the exposition of the theme, starts at about 2:05! Sort of moto perpetuo...

This Man is one HELL of a concert organist! would love to see more of him!

...please give me the icon of an open mouh with the jaw on the ground...

Great to hear the Casavant agian. Went there awhile back on an Organ Crawl, and got to play on it. Quite a reach for the 5th Mannule, but love it.

Whoa... been playing the pipe organ since I was 8, listening to this type of music even longer and I have never heard this piece before! Neat song!

[cembalo75]

Fabulous! This is a piece often forgotten among American organists. Yet Bonnet wielded great influence here at the beginning of the 20th century.
