  • All you critics and your unsolicited advice:This kid plays well. probabaly better than any of you self-appointed judges. Have you ever been engaged to play in a venue of this magnitude?

  • @mrstevecbournias My sentiments, precisely. I put these performances on YouTube for folks' enjoyment -- not as a vehicle for erstwhile authorities to offer their critiques.

  • Points for clean playing. That said: Agogics and ends of phrases are WAY too excessive. Especially when in middle phrases of a variation on the first time around of a repeat. (eg the final variation). Too Wagnerian. Registration is also too 19th century for this music. Not the best use of an organ that size. Try again.

  • Some of his agogics at the ends of phrases are quite excessive, especially when it's the first time of a repeated phrase. A little too Wagnerian for my liking, ESPECIALLY in the last variation. Registration is also a little too 19th century. Try again.

  • Interesting musical decisions made, and all very valid. The performer had a clear picture of what he wanted and went for it.

  • Agree the registration isn't true to the French classical school, but the flutes on the first section work for me; the left hand is beautifully clear which isn't always the case on some performances. I would agree they are rather less satisfactory on the echo section

    Wolfy -

    The original had no pedal part - these pieces were originally intended "pour 'lOrgue et le Clavecin"

  • Incorrect registration for this music.

  • The guy needs to learn to jump manuals more for this piece and number 2, last time I saw the music to this, there was music for the feet to this piece. Why did he not play them?
