César Franck, Pièce Heroïque - Jean-Baptiste Dupont, orgue

[@MusicLab75]

Voilà de la belle musique... et par coeur encore. Un grand bravo de la part d'un collègue organiste !

[@geminian7846]

Wow! I don't think I have ever heard this Pièce sound more héroïque! There can be no finer . . . grander . . . nobler sound than that of a large Cavaillé-Coll at full blast, especially in the hands of such a supremely gifted player. What a treat - indeed, a privilege - to be able to watch and listen to this.

[@bcshelby4926]

..absolutely beautiful . On a Cavaille Coll organ that still has ventils. The phrasing was excellent and letting the work "breathe" was wonderful

[@gunnarbjorck929]

You are one of the three best organists in the world!! I have listen to your works alot...and i say that you are top-class!!!🤗🙏🙏

[@nemo8525]

Splendire exécution, Merci et bravo M. Dupont ! Quel talent. J'adore.

[@ЕлизаветаКотова-ж6ю]

Очень здорово!

[@andrewashdown3541]

Excellent - also recommend Sidney Campbell at St George's Chapel, Windsor, on vinyl (Ryemuse, 1965)

[@peteacher52]

Bravo! This ranks with the very best interpretations of this old warhorse on KZbin.

[@romancat7487]

Absolutely stunning. This is one of my favorite organ pieces and his performance is extraordinarily moving. Fine work dear fellow, fine work.

[@NakedMuso]

Absolutely nailed it! You're so fortunate to have such a beast to work your your magic on. Thank you.

[@noelbolingbroke-kent3009]

My organist grandfather's favourite piece, superbly played at just the right speed

[@pietermoonen]

Dank voor deze schitterende uitvoering van dit mooie werk van Franck, een van mijn lievelingswerken!

[@antoniogranone6591]

One of the best I've ever listened, (and I have many of it). Bravo!!!

[@christianguinier1763]

Ah Franck Le Grand! mon préfèré du romantique quelle merveille à écouter et à sublimer à st Clotilde !! ( évidement )

[@earthlightsmusic2743]

That is the best organ to play that piece on --- well done!

[@speedstick77]

Monsieur DuPont plays the piece as though he wrote it. Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

[@sergejnekrasov7688]

I agree that his performance is marvellous, but I just wanted to say, that there were many composers, who couldn't perform their own pieces (or shouldn't have done it, because they were bad performers).

[@chucklambooy8457]

Absolutely fabulous! Jean-Baptist - your skills are truly a gift! Bravo!

[@aketun1]

Merci, merci, merci ! A la joie d'entendre une très belle et très soignée interprétation de cette pièce admirable, s'ajoute l'immense plaisir de jeter à nouveau un oeil admiratif sur "l'intimité" d'un instrument mythique, le Cavaillé-Coll de Saint Sernin. Félicitations à l'auteur des prises de vue qui nous permet de suivre la complexité d'un tel jeu.

[@jmdujardin]

je n'ajoute rien à ce commentaire que je partage pleinement . Un grand plaisir à tous points de vue ! Merci Jean-Baptiste !

[@SandyBrown]

Fabulous. What an inspiration. Thank you!

[@Vincent-ig2cb]

Fabulous. No further superlatives needed -all been said before me.

Superbe Cavaillet coll.

[@bobh5087]

Bravo. What a sound! 👍 ❤️ 👏

Beautiful beyond words.

[@jhernangiraldo2380]

Perfect... In every detail is absolute....

[@Mr05241948]

Love the smooth majestic performance on this beautiful pipe organ.

[@markschlicht213]

Absolutely fantastic performance. Thank you!

[@patriciashopland4530]

Thank you for communicating the essence and true meaning of this piece!!! Beautiful!!!

[@albertpeckham8708]

OMG! To think that you have have every nuance of every melody line parked in your head! AMAZING! But then, you are French and Aristede Cavaille-Coll is standing in the wings. Bravo Monsieur!

[@charlesdavis7087]

Superb. One of my favorite works... and you did yourself proud. You have a wonderful feel for these early 20th century organ works. But I have this intuition, you've got some original works up your sleeves. Can't wait to hear some of your compositions. CVD

[@marsvltor2]

Many thanks. By a country-mile the finest performance of the work on KZbin. Superb interpretation, and one of the greatest of Cavaillé-Colls. Once again, many, many thanks for posting.

[@mckreunski]

Wow!! Great job, very , very well played, every detail is there. Thankyou for sharing, most inspiring!

[@jmeister321684]

Vraiment superbe et musical, merci !

[@johnrobinson1132]

Admirable !

[@paulausten5600]

Thank you for a magnificent interpretation on such a wonderful organ (which I now know to be the Cavaille Coll one at St Sernin!! (When I watched M Dupont's recording of the 1st movement of Widor 6th I wasn't aware of this till the credits at the end!!). All all this wonderful performance from memory!! Bravo!!!

[@monumentstosuffering2995]

Most awesome. Thank you for playing it slowly - it needs to breathe - so do we! Do you ever feel like a god on full organ?

[@keplergso8369]

RIGHT TEMPO (in my opinion) !! It is often played too fast. And excellent performance ! A pity that the Reeds are a bit detuned. Jacques, from France.

[@earthlightsmusic2743]

The pedal is in better tune than on two recordings of this piece, Saorgin and Murray. But reeds are like that anyway, first to go out of tune.

[@monoamiga]

Totally agreed about the tempo!

[@gerardbedecarter]

A marvellous performance and video.

[@briandearden7585]

Just learning this Jean, what a fab piece.thank you. Tricky double flats in the middle section. But if u can play it without sheet music it must help!!! I have Dupytrens also, and some of the chord stretches are quite challenging, i have to improvise, but i am getting there for a 77 year old. Playing it on Alessandria, Grand Orgue

[@ericstreet6601]

What a wonderful command of the rhythm! Great performance!

[@musiclove543]

Fantastique agogique! Bravo!

[@Johnnykeys100]

Bravo!!!

[@bob04005]

Excellent!!!!

[@TheJohn1567]

Bravo!

[@WoodymC]

It's incredible to hear C-C's genius in any of his instruments, no matter what particular one you pick out. But likewise, each one of them offers a subtle divergence in its tonal palette -- induced by the disposition of stops -- which makes it another unique experience to the listener. In the aftermath, it's no surprise that I'm stuck with playing on the virtual counterpart of C-C's opus from Notre Dame de Metz for over a year without ever switching to another instrument. Your perfomance was pure ear candy... Merci beaucoup, Jean-Baptiste!

[@Gymnopedie55]

Awesome performance and interpretation

[@alaindomecq4431]

au moins voilà duc Franck authentique. l'instrument est a la hauteur .

[@agodbee3847]

Missaur Dupont: Great video! As are the others.

[@kyotokid4]

...wonderful interpretation. I used to love performing this work until arthritis got the better of me.

[@albertocolzani897]

Bravissimo!

[@robertperron9989]

Ceci est t r è s beau!

[@alaindomecq4431]

qqqqqQtresq bellld tress magistrale lnterpretation et en plus de mémoire ,bravo ,,!

[@annakimborahpa]

Msgr. Dupont demonstrates there is "better living through chemistry" of composer Cesar Franck and organ builder Aristide Cavaille-Coll.

[@jochemdevisser9506]

Awesome!

[@grapesoftime]

Had to hear this to get part of Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil when he plays it to drown out the neighbor's howling dog lol I love it, wondrous

20 people need to get their ears sorted out. This is an awesome rendition of this piece of music.

[@PointyTailofSatan]

Combination action? Of course! Meet Bob on the left, and Bruce on the right!

[@sergejnekrasov7688]

I'm a bit confused, how the manuals are layed out: Is it Positif III-Recit II-G.O. I or is there a Copula Positif au Recit?

[@JeanBaptisteDupont]

I-GO, II-Pos, III-Rec, and cop II/III

A better interpretation than Alain's and Dupre's ones. He knows well how and where to make use of rubato, legato, staccato, etc... All the young organists should learn his lesson.

[@andrewvida3829]

This comes closest to Cocherau's interpretation. I like it. Few know how to play this piece properly. I found Demesieux's interpretation wholly inadequate and disappointing, as well as those of many others. Does not appear to be quite an easy piece to perform. The organ is magnificent.

[@nemo8525]

Je compare cette oeuvre, dans ma vision personnelle à l'escalier du diable... sur un plan pictural s'entend et pas l'oeuvre musicale du même intitulé (que j'aime aussi beaucoup d'ailleurs).

[@andreacosta74]

Some pipes untuned

[@paulcaswell2813]

Not really so - just French seasoning!
