YevgeniyAlexey, in respect of your points of views, (saw all your other comments on Latry and Lefebvre's other videos on Youtube)please have more perspective before writing anything and go and see my writing on PART 1 of this 3 part impro by Latry, thanks, JW.
Modern French organ improvisation needs a reorientation. They should rethink the balance between the core and the accessories. At the moment the latter hides the former. Heavy clouds of perfume and loads of stuffy plush can also fill 15 minutes of improvisation.
Sometimes I wonder if they just make fun of the undemandingness of the audience. Cheap money. Imo it should not be called "Improvisation" it should be called a "Provacation"
Until you can out-improvise one of the world's greatest organists(!), I suggest you stop making such arrogant comments, claiming to be the expert on the subject!
Who among us can improvise like this?? Latry is a phenomenal organist! Truly a worthy successor to Pierre Cochereau (a legend indeed!!!). I'll agree that unless you can do better, keep your half-minded, half-informed, unintelligent comments to yourself. Some people's comments are "provocation" to those of us who can improvise and who love to hear guys like Latry. Vive l`Improvisation!!!
sounds like it came stright from a noseferatu film, good shit

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Fuzzy music.
Apparently he does not have any particular point of view. Or he does not dare to make an assertive statement or decision.
Why not?
He has all the means and the capabilites to vouch for a clear statement. Where does the incertitude come from?

Ok, ok. Not everything in this improvisation is shallow and trivial. I think the most exiciting idea and interesting part comes after 4:32.
