i had the spectacular good fortune to hear johannes play at the college of wooster on 22 september 1978. he played the most delicious vierne i've heard ~

a group of us organ students went out on the town with him after his performance; he was warm and kind with a screaming sense of humor and oh so humble ~

i went to the registrar's office the next morning and changed my major from english to organ performance ~

You should make a DVD with several famous organist there! It would be a hit!"
There are many recordings from St Ouen but not so many movies!

I dont exactly enjoy the first part of this piece..its towards the end where i find it realy exciting!!!!!!! The last part with all those grand chords is for me the best part of the piece and i love it!!!!!!!

Interesting! I'm exactly the opposite, I love the first part, I like the forte section, but I LOVE the first part.
Saint-Saens was such a genius, the piece encompasses two different tastes! So cool!
