  • Cesar Franck was a genious. He´s music is very serious works of art. I think that Mr. Varnus delivers the sensitivity and seriosity that atleast I associate with Cesar Franck.

    Very beautiful!

  • O my Lord!!! What a human performance! The deep silence of the prelude overflows into the variations... the passion and emotion of the variations speak of a performer with a tremendous heart and soul; a man who has something special to communicate! Bravissimo brother organist!!

  • 0:12 What a scene! Is it night, day, a dream or a nightmare?

  • I do hope that that organ has something to help the couplers.

  • Stunning performance. It's played in a church, and correctly so, for I feel the very presence of God Almighty.

  • @gerardbedecarter you know, man. I wrote that so long ago I am not even sure what I meant by it...

  • @okamilune ... Franck played his own organ works very freely.

  • Exquisite performance.  Extremely expressive.

  • Cesar Franck had acromegaly which means he had unnatural big hands and feets. The reason is too much hormon from thyroid. It is sometimes very difficult to play his music (to catch intervals for ex. duodecima) because Franck could manage such distans in organ.

    Besides, very good performance :))))

  • Yes

  • Is that mrs cauchefer choplin at his side?
