Yeaaaaa, the orginal Playtable is back....

AND the organ.........

[pordzio]

@Musique3579 Well, I did some research recently, and You were right about this not being Guilamnts organ. In fact, if you search YT you will find two videos with improvisations on that organ.

@pordzio In the book, "Recollections" par Marcel Dupre, Dupre talks about (and photos are shown) of Guilmants Pipe Organ. One thing and from memory, the photo did not look like this instrument. ie: It did not appear as large. Good thing the WWII Bomb that hit Dupres house spared the organ by just a few feet! Dupre was still very much alive when this movie was made. Perhaps Guilmant had several Pipe Organs?

[pordzio]

@chamade216 If I recall correctly, this is a Cavaille-Coll built for Guillmants home, which was next door to his. When Guillamnt died, he bought the organ from his family, built a special hall for it and instelld it inside. This is the instrument seen in the video

[bazzermn]

was it really in his house?

[ch604]

@chamade216 i think i heard him mention cavaille-coll as the organ builder

Warum braucht er eine Heimorgel? Er hatte doch alles, was das Herz begehrt, in Notre-Dame!
