  • Thank You. Tournemire's music is brilliant!

  • @jnetusil Be that as it may, this is my favorite interpretation of this piece. There may be many different ways of interpreting this piece, but I think this is the best, even better than Tournemire's own original improvistion itself.

  • @nunocarmona - small modifications?! All that remained of C-C's organ by the time Messiaen was done with it was the pipework and the case - the chests and soundboards were all replaced AFAIK, the action and console were completely replaced... it is a masterpiece nevertheless, but a slightly-modified C-C it is not. If only the S. Clothilde organ had been treated as sympathetically - instead of which it was revoiced to hell.

  • @ThirtyTwoFoot - though the Haverstock Hill Willis is immensely more musical, and lacks neither power, richness nor grandeur!

  • zoiets blijft mooi ! klassiek  muziek ,)

  • @jnetusil: Please upload some of your organ playing, so we can check if you always follow the editor's guidelines.

  • Sublime!!!.

    

  • @poopingeneral You may be close, but probably closer to 110 to 120. Notre Dame is around 140, and that is loud. These organs are loud. They were built to be, but the difference is in the balance. They are not a loud "noise" but rather a well balanced fullness. There is a difference and what most newer instruments miss altogether. They turn out very harsh and unpleasant to the ear.

  • Charles Tournemire wordt hier op volledig juiste manier gespeeld.

    Groot compliment voor Jean-Baptiste Robin die het machtige Van den Heuvel - orgel met wonderbaarlijke souplesse bespeelt.

    Merci bien!

  • @jv04jm I have yet to get a response to this question. I suspect though, both organs can pump out around 120-130 db's at there max. They both don't compare though to the Midmer Losh organ in New Jersey.

  • @poopingeneral Interesting question! You ever received an answer to this yet?
