The tempo is erratic. And the opening was too stodgy due to his refusal to use the pedals. There is no reason not to use the pedals. Franck intended them to be used. He just didn't feel like writing them out because all five voices were the same registration.
@organboi I beg to differ on your interpretation of the score wrt playing the pedals-if Franck wanted to play with the pedalboard @ that point he would have put it on the score . Franck was virtuoso organist and by the time he wrote these last 12 pieces down he knew what he wanted. I play the pieces as written although one is free to interpret the pieces as they feel like it. As for the manner that this piece is played, it is a very good interpretation - one of my favotire in fact.
Positively the most musical performance of this piece since the day Franck wrote it....bravo maestro....heart-felt from the depths of the soul....amazing young performer...gifted.....
Cette interprétation est toute en délicatesse, profonde...on rêve d'être présent dans la cathédrale....Bravo Vincent ! je la réécouterai et elle m'aidera dans mon apprentissage de cette magnifique pièce de Cesar Franck !
