He might have used a small camera for the recording ... for sure it is not professional but I do not care. I am glad he did it^^

Notre Dame Sunday High Mass - the organ has a terrific sound for anyone with any feeling, a knee and tear jerker. This Widor the correct speed, not like the awful jet speed of Diane Bish.

Poor recording on cheap equipment. My large Fisher studio speakers just growled. With the Wanamaker organ they rumble like a earth tremor.

ThePipeorganman's comment is ridiculous. I"ve been in Notre Dame and have heard this incredible organ, and it sounds wonderful. Why do people like to fashion themselves as snobs to sound intelligent?

@OlivierLatryFan ... getaway from those awful priests

I am sorry to say this after working on over 20 pipe organs in my life Cavaillé-Coll made there instruments so they would never half to be restored if they just left it alone it would of never had to have been worked on. Look and St.Sulpice it still has its original console and it will always have it. There's a quote "if its not broke don't fix it. Unfortunately they have completely destroyed the original sound of this wonderful pipe organ today it sounds like crap.

A wonderful performance, all the poetry shows up.
Reminds me the ringing bells by Easter sunday.



I've heard this several hundred (1000?) times, but I can NEVER resist listening to it performed on one of the great French instruments.
