[Josepepe95]

What is the song?

[tormus1]

The pieces are all listed at the end of the clip.

[Josepepe95]

Ok, thank you! But... Do you know where can I find the second piece (Toccata, Gaston bélier) please?@tormus1

[Josepepe95]

@tormus1 Thank you! But do you know where can I find the score? I find it nowhere.

[tormus1]

I can sent it to you.

[gerardbedecarter]

Thanks for this magnificent feast of sights and sounds.  The photos of the Vierne console were particularly fascinating. It's in a small museum at Notre Dame isn't it?

[tormus1]

I have heard that the console was recently relocated in the gallery at Notre-Dame. When I saw it some years ago, it was in the museum in rue du Cloître Notre-Dame.

[gerardbedecarter]

Alan Moffat told me that he had been able to examine the Vierne console. Alan was familiar with Vierne's organ music, of course, and he told me that all Vierne's registrations would have been easily able to be carried out as Vierne directed.

[tjugofyra]

@tormus1 It's located in the left tower-room just behind the organ.

[tormus1]

Thank you. I must have a look when I am up there next Sunday with Latry.

[mietekzjaczna]

SUPER !!

[DesireeDeFete]

OH! Can I have a copy of the Belier...Pretty Please!?

[tormus1]

Yes. Just send me your email address and I will send the pdf to you (in a week's time as I am on a conference.)

[gcavenaile]

I must admit that I dream to have a this recorded, that I continualy listen from 1 years.. Is it possible to send me too? Or to give me its origin?

[tormus1]

Yes, I can sent it to you if you give me an email address.

[Bombarde100]

Where/how could I get ahold of a PDF copy of the Belier Toccata!? I have been looking for it for over 3 years now! Can anyone help???

[tormus1]

Solved! Send me your email and I will forward it to you.

[gngeannakakes]

Is the music before 03:06 an improvisation? If so, it is pretty good.

[tormus1]

It is the Prelude by Pierné.

[wavejaco]

What piece is being played at 03:06? It sounds amazing!

[tormus1]

It is the Toccata by Gaston Bélier.

[xTruly108x]

And yeah,Improv isnt that bad.....im just getting started to play the organ-and I can already do it

[xTruly108x]

Daniel Roth has recorded this before.....lovely song

[Iktorn0703]

I dream go to Paris Notre-Dame.

I dream learn organ concert.

Sometime it can...

[praisethelord333]

but you learn it not only with one paris trip :-) you have to take lessons by a organ teacher. but you are right. paris is the mekka of organists.

[emotiiii]

I'm searching for the title of the song who starts at 3:06 ... I've a memory hole, could someone please tell me what song it is? Thx

[tormus1]

It is the Toccata by Gaston Bélier.

[26121910]

the editor of this sheet music ?

[Iktorn0703]

beautiful. i'd love this music!!! Fantastic!!!

[tormus1]

Well I suppose that is why Gaston Bélier kept to his profession as a banker and not as a composer! The former would have made him more money! Mind you, for those of us who do not know how to compose or improvise, it is not all that bad :)

[26121910]

Where could we find the sheet music : toccata by gaston BELIER (1863 - 1938 )?

Is it out of print ?

maestro 60

[tormus1]

I think it is out of print. I managed to get a copy (PDF) through some kind person on the Net.

[chamade216]

Both videos are incredible ! Wonderful job! The part B organ works are played by Latry, am I right? In both video the organ sounds like in Cochereau's era, just before the 1992 restauration happened, am I also right:-) ? My personal opinion is that the old sound of the organ was much better than now.

[tormus1]

Thank you. I have compiled many photos from over the years. No, it is not Latry. I think the organ sounds better now, particularly the Mixtures and the Chamades.

[tjugofyra]

Who is it playing then?

[tormus1]

I recall that it was an overseas visitor - it was quite some time ago.

[robroy1989]

Incredible organ!!!

[FritzieCarney]

Two very beautiful videos. Thank you.

[margyoseven]

Thank you so much for this breathtakingly beautiful recital. I feel as if I've had a banquet - musically and visually perfect!

[cookiebaroness]

This is really spellbinding, such wonderful pieces and such beautiful photographs, better than any virtual tour I have ever seen. What a finish that piece has. Bravo!

[scandichoir]

The piece by Bélier is absolutely fantastic! Why have I never heard it before? It was also interesting to see the old console, the one where Vierne played his last note...

[jmeister321684]

Correction: that's Gabriel Pierné, 1863-1937 (who died the same year as Vierne, as Ch.M. Widor and Roussel, Ravel and Ropartz!)

[graant71]

Joseph-Guy Ropartz died in 1955, all the others in 1937.

[jmeister321684]

Thanks for your correction! ... in fact I just looked up in le "Guide de la Musique d'Orgue" (Fayard, 1991)and Ropartz effectively died on Nov 22nd,1955,aged 92!

[jmeister321684]

scandichoir: Sorry!... In fact the second piece is by Bélier! Thanks, JW

[26121910]

the sheet music , please ?
