I hope one day The Cochereau-Boisseau organ will be restored!

Semplicemente eccezionale, fantastico... Ridateci l'Organo di Notre Dame, ridateci l'Organo di St Sernin... please please please....

had to listen 6 times. incredible.

After three listenings I am still marveled! What a beautifully textured sound this organ was capable of and played by Cochereau. This must be transcendant and memorable to listen in person. What a sound and harmonies in this composition by Bach.

DAMNED !!!! I want the cochereau-Boisseau-Hermann Organ BACK !!!!!!! This ROCKS! Miss him...

I agree... how can you tell the difference when they play on these huge machines where the instrument and acoustics decide all. The real test is making the pipework of a small 20-rank tracker sing, something I never heard either of these do. But E Power Biggs could, with great subtlety. :-) So could Chapuis, Chapelet, etc., on and on.

To compare the maestro and immortal Pierre Coucherau with Virgil Fox is like comparing the finest cuisine restaurant that got 10 stars in guide rouge with a cheap fast food/hamburger restaurant!

Totally agree marsvltor2. The Boisseau chamades can easily be restored to their former glory. The two mixture stops on the Recit also need to be restored as well - strangely the blank draw stops remain for them on the console just in case! Let's hope that one day the revisions will be reversed, and the Organ of NDdeP recovers its position in the Top Three in the world (along with St Ouen and St Sulpice).

Hearing the end of this work made me weep: why, oh why, were the Boisseau reeds butchered? The organ is still fine, but pre-restoration it was the best roller-coaster ride one's ears could ever experience :-)
COCHEREAU jouant Bach à l'orgue de Notre-Dame de Paris, c'est une pure merveille! Cet Artiste nous manque beaucoup!
