A magnificent presentation of this glorious work!!

[codeman2008]

Absolutely one of the greatest pieces ever written for organ! I can't get enough of this piece!

[gerardbedecarter]

@codeman2008 ....  Yes, absolutely!

I wish they made more recordings here.

Magnificent acoustics in that room. They lucked out; the 70 rank Moller I learned on (1968 vintage) was voiced very poorly, had uneven wind pressure, was crammed into the concrete chambers with pipe mouths speaking into walls, corners, etc. This has a lovely sound.

This guy is amazing, and so are the organ and the church! I'd like to play one simple Couperin chaconne on this organ before I die!

Adam played a few French Baroque pieces at the concert -- including the Tierce en Taille from Couperin's Mass for Convents. But I was having equipment difficulties about then. I think I did manage to record his performance of the Daquin Noel X -- I'll see if I can retrieve it from the depths of my digital library & upload @ some point in the not-too-distant future.
