It is amazing what happens when one turns off the trems! Any videos I have watched, Lew plays from memory. A virtuoso for sure!
-
Nice speed but to loud. This sould start out soft and not get lound until near the end.

@Ekel90 oliver latry can. do a search for him. but lew is no slouch either. he plays it quite well.
-
on a visit to Honolulu around 1998 or 1999, he pulled off this same Widor piece on the Morton at Hawaii Theatre - and that Morton has no principal chorus or mixture!!!

@Ekel90 Once you have learnt it from the music, this piece is quite easy to remember. This is quite good but I notice quite a few mistakes because I know it very well, having said that I would have to practice it a lot even to play it as good as this performance as I am rather rusty.
At least playing it without music you don't have to do all the page turns.

How can somebody play this Masterpiece by heart ??!?!?!

lew needs a fan page on facebook :-)

I wept....

I forgot to say ....... note the sedate speed Lew is taking this. As it should be, most organists play it far to fast and blur it ......Way to go Lew. BT.

Hi! What a wonderful BEAST! For someone else playing at what I regard to be the right tempo see "Ben Scott Widor". To some extent it also depends on the acoustic. Many organists ignore the acoustic as part of their instrument.
