Vincent Dubois has performed in many countries throughout Europe as well as the USA. He won the Recital Gold Medal at the 2002 Royal Bank Calgary International Organ Festival and Competition, and most recently, the 1st Grand Prix in the 2002 International Competition of Toulouse. Mr. Dubois currently teaches harmony and counterpoint at Angers National Conservatory where in 2005 he was appointed assistant-manager of the conservatory. He is also the titular organist at the Cathedral of Soissons. Mr. Dubois was invited by Daniel Roth, titular organist of St. Sulpice in Paris, to make a recording for JAV Recordings on the 1862 Cavaille-Coll Organ. This instrument is one of the great French builder's masterpieces which comes down to us as the builder left it. This disc will include organ music of Lizst, Duruflé, Rachmaninoff, Mozart and an improvisation by Mr. Dubois. It was recorded on May 13, 2006 and will be available in SACD surround sound in 2007. This film was made late on the evening of May 11, 2006 at St. Sulpice. I took a cab across Paris and met Michel Goussu (organ curator of St. Sulpice) at the back door around 10pm. Vincent was practicing Franz Liszt's Evocation of the Sistine Chapel. They practiced while I took lots of photos, and before midnight I filmed my video which contains the Liszt and the first movement of Widor's 6th Organ Symphony.

I listen to and watch this video before I go to work, just about every morning of the world. I need to hear this, as it charges my batteries for the day......lol

JV I think we need some more recordings on the works of C.M. Widor on this organ and Mr Dubois is the perfect choice for such a job. Really I heard Widor and Roth's own recordings but this is something very special, magical and magnificent, especially at the beginning and at the end.

Can anyone tell me what songs he is playing? I can't tell from his accent.

Holy shit, that's one hell of an organ.

No s**t! I am trembling from the sheer sonic energy coming out of my computer. Who needs Starbuck's!

Why not make a video of the whole concert? Watching him play is vastly more interesting than just listening to the CD.
