Guilmant's Organ Sonota in D-Minor Finale Recorded from Downstairs

As the title says. This is a retake of Charles Guilmant's Sonota in D-Minor (Opus 42) final movement on the pipe organ at Manila Cathedral Basilica, however unlike my other youtube video of the same piece, the camera with its self contained sound recording device were downstairs about ten pews from the front - very far from the organ. The purpose is to secure the full effects of the very live accoustics inside the cathedral whereas with the other video, the mic and camera was very near the organ. There is a dramatic difference in sound when one hears the organ in the main sanctuary verses when one hears the piece very near to the organ.

@poopingeneral Why else do you think they use organs in cathedrals?

[OrganoAeternam]
