Organ improvisation

[newgeorge]

but shouldnt he wait until the priest has finished his sermon?

[octavebasse8]

@newgeorge No one cares about the sermon. The priest should finish whenever Master Roth is ready to begin. :D

[newgeorge]

@octavebasse8 I know the temptation, being an organist of sorts myself :)

[clubpenguinrock12]

lol its like club penguin

[Streetcar1743]

The piece is great. But the sound and the video tends to get out of sequence when Daniel starts playing. I assume that might be a video program error.

[menschmaschine5]

@Streetcar1743 Youtube does that a lot.

[kknots]

Where is he taking the notes from? From his own mind? So then... the music shows us what the player currently thinks of. According to the sound quality there's an oaf green monster playing organ in his head.

[radketim]

Haha, the man is a master. I would be so intimidated to study under him.

[tormus1]

Yes, he is a master but also a very approachable person and never intimidating!

[tormus1]

He would be reading from the Liber Usualis on the music desk.

[VibrationaRelativity]

lol you sound  a lil' retarded, lol no offense

[ludwigvan17]

Excellent playing. Bad quality sound though.

[Malgan91]

Kann es sein, dass er da schon zu spielen beginnt, während noch einer am reden ist? war das vllt der Pfarrer?^^ find ich eigenartig

[asporner]

Sehr gute Frage. Weil diese auch ein Fremdsprache fuer mich ist, kann ich nicht beurteile ab es ist wirklich den Pfarrer oder einfact ein Tour. Bei uns (USA) wird die Organist auf sein arsch in Schnee! :-)

[polsterj]

Ich glaub eher nicht, da hat das programm anscheinend irgendwas verschissen. Am Anfang sieht man ja, dass er vom ton her erst den pfarrer abwürgt, und dann später erst auf dem bild den ersten ton spielt.

[jeemobon]

the picture is way way out of sync with the sound, and the quality of both is terrible. Still I like the music, or what can be heard from it after such terrible compression. By the way music snobs can eat shit as the saying goes.

[54spiritedwill54]

this gets better every time

[ByrdWhiteMovie]

I see your point, but I think it at least, somehow, qualifies as music... just not what most folks are expecting. He's got the chromatics down, and I didn't hear a dissonent slip anywhere (he has the patterns);thereafter, what remains is largely an a-rhythmic mess. If he punched in some stops & converted some of that blaring droning to a tonal "ambience" of sorts, it might be acceptable as "psychedelia"...

[tjugofyra]

You do know that if he had wanted, he could have gone from FFF to mp without pushing in any stops!

[and3583]

If people like hearing it and its made of notes, then it is music.

[tjugofyra]

And this improv is made of notes and many people love hearing this!

I enjoy this very much!

[ludwigvan17]

Wow, good comment. I'm writing that down!!!

[PuinenSuupala]

LOL even i can play better than he do.. asd... that sounds awful

[organscholar15]

I would love to play there !!

Try andlive up to Widor haha

[EpiCaWaR]

Quality improvisation!

[ChristianHikers]

Yikes!!!

[BluezBro604]

i guess u'd have to be there to fully appreciate it

[redletterchurch]

Kind of hard to go back to singing praise songs at the mega church after listening to this!

[RicardoERivera]

Amazing - thank you for posting it.

[swellshades]

He's the best, isn't he?! -Fabulous organist...

[2468HOTROD]

Beautiful organ and wonderful playing. I never get tired of listening to this organ. The louder, the beter for me. Thank you for this video.

[ClasicalJazz4LiFe]

wow nice playing is that in a churt?

[jmontgomery7577]

This is in the Church of Saint-Sulpice in Paris, France. Previous organists there included Widor and Dupre. This is the largest unaltered Cavaille-Coll

organ in the world.

[EliteMinor13]

piano is just the bays1c, oragans is hella hard, your feet has to be fast like how your fingers play piano.

[koschinski2]

This video was downloaded from another internet-site without permission. I think Daniel Roth would not be glad with this.

[EmperorDinobot]

o wow!

[afdcomposer]

this gets better every time i watch it.

[qudolph]

very wachnerian.

[Christopher81]

Love the section where he states the theme of the Chant on the Solo Division reeds.
