Absolutely great! Mr. Mossakowski is like a brand new pair of luxurious, expensive Italian shoes - they look and feel great but, after just a few uses, they will look, feel and fit even better. Thank you for this amazing gift.

Karol 🤩 The new latest multi-European genius of the organ

[@miroslavjencek8967]

It is always such pleasure to observe talented musician, as he/she plays and enjoys the work in the same time, like me, the humble listener... Music is the language of heaven. Amazingly played, thank you!

[@bernardjacquemot4034]

Concert magnifique !! Un interprète de grand talent et très inspiré au service de ce splendide instrument. Merci

[@piotrantos6061]

Świetny koncert, Panie Karolu muszę przyznać, że niesamowita duma rozpiera mnie jako Polaka widząc Pana jako organistę tytularnego w takim miejscu. W 2011 roku byłem na wycieczce z kołem naukowym studentów i miałem zaszczyt poznać Pana prof. Roth'a, mam nadzieję, że dostąpię zaszczytu kiedyś spotkać Pana na tym samym chórze w St. Sulpice. Jeszcze raz gratuluję.

What a sweet Bach ending! Magnificent performance BRAVO! St. Sulpice is still in great hands!!!!!!!!!!!

Vous êtes un immense talent de la nouvelle génération !

[@Contre-Bombarde32]

Wonderful concert on one of my favorite organs. Bravo Karol and many thanks Mr. Dub-Attenti👏👏👏

[@oliviergarnier4426]

Quel bonheur !!! Bravo Karol !!! Tu nous as bercés et emmenés très haut ce soir. Bravo également à tous les bénévoles.

[@michaelmeyer7426]

Beautiful playing, skilled registrants--so meaningful watching the passing of the torch to a new generation. Oh--and wonderful recording quality as well!!

[@BFOMSeminars]

we can be glad that M. Roth himself has approved of this wonderful organist to be his successor, and that M. Roth will continue there as organist emeritus. However the priceless legacy of years of devotion to this instrument and this church by Widor, Dupre, and Roth will be difficult to replicate by a newcomer. It is hoped that he can bring the same heartfelt love into the tribune so that we can all continue to realize the enormous importance of preserving this sacred monument untouched for posterity.

[@glasss1978]

I would quietly mention that Sophie-Veronique Cauchefer-Choplin was also appointed as titulaire this year - 38 years too late if you ask me. Down to individual taste, but for me, she's the most powerful, imaginative and intelligent organist I've ever heard playing on that organ. And in general, as a matter of fact.

[@runemolvik9018]

Fantastique de vivre cela! Ma femme de 35 ans et moi étions à Paris pour célébrer. Nous avons assisté au concert à l’occasion de notre nomination comme organiste titulaire à St Sulpice. Félicitations de la part de nous deux de Norvège! Janne et Rune

[@Pipeloops]

What a brillant concert! What else could you wish for: Great music, amazing organ, excellent performer, and perfect audio and video! Bravo!!!

[@dkod19]

Wonderful! This is my first time hearing Mr. Mossakowski and he doesn't disappoint. The opening Dupre piece is one of my favorites. The entire program was great. I especially love the fact that the tempos were appropriate for the venue, given the amount of reverberation there is in that church. Very well done by all, including the production team. If I ever get to Paris, I definitely want to stop in and hear the instrument live.

[@TedATL1]

Exactly right. So much organ music is played too fast. It obscures all the riches of the composition.

[@williamfredscott6904]

Just tuned in! Great repertoire choices, being wonderfully played. Pierre-François, your videos have become so elegant. Such a joy to watch. Many thanks to everyone involved and greetings from Atlanta aux États-Unis!

[@jonathankleefield5520]

Congratulations to the new virtuoso with a completely fresh approach to this majestic instrument. The articulation, tonal clarity and power that he achieves creates a fresh sound almost suggesting the organ has been re-voiced in the most exciting fashion. His phrasing breathes new life into pieces that one would have thought had no reason to be re-visited. Also, my deepest thanks to the audio and video technicians for providing such splendid sound and imagery. While I have had the chance to visit St. Sulpice several times before, I surely hope I will have the chance again to hear this artist perform live. Bravo on all counts and thank you for sharing this event with us.

[@robertstokely6947]

Moved to tears by the Franck. My goodness, the musicality and passion in that performance was out of this world.

[@jclou65]

Bel concerto... Bravissimo Maestro Mossakowski. Grazie anche all'organizzazione dell'evento.

[@4candles]

Possibly my first introduction to recorded organ music was Marcel Dupré's disk including Franck's Chorales from St Thomas Church, NYC, on the Mercury label. Since then this chorale has remained one of my absolute favourite organ works, along with the Prelude and Fugue in B by Dupré. Just such wonderful music. A superb programme here, including a beautiful improvisation.

[@JRPmuzik]

Absolutely Wonderful! Thank You!

[@miphtan]

A superb, almost exalted performance ! Well done Karol.

[@valentinekim7607]

Absolutely so musical performance!

[@lanonyme]

Très belle improvisation sur des petits Jeux (4''/ou 2') ceci nous change des habituels Plénum. Charles Marie Widor doit être encore plus aux anges dans les cieux avec un successeur qui joua plus que bien sa 5ème Symphonie . . . .

[@bombarde1701a]

I hope he makes a CD soon!

[@DavidSmith-nq3ps]

Thank you for the beautiful concert and video production! I was especially moved by the photo of Widor at the console and at end, the Bach Chorale Preludes.

[@Airy59]

... et un très beau "bis" ... bonne continuation !

[@johnbostrom8467]

This magnificent organ deserves a genius organist. This genius organist deserves this magnificent organ!!! Hope to hear more of him. Audio output is a bit low. Can do a bit better in this respect.

Po słynnym Dienielu Roth godna dostojna zamiana!

[@Pipe-organ-recordings]

Wonder ❤

[@bcshelby4926]

...the Franck B Minor Chorale is one of my favourites asd was beautifully performed. I could hear the influence of . Messiaen in the improvisation, particularly the birdsong elements. Ah yes the the Widor 5th love the opening movement and particularly the cantabile .To hear it on the same instrument where the composer played it is wonderful. As to the toccata I prefer Xavier Darasse's tempo, which like Widor's is more majestic. He follows several great organists who held the title there including Mr. Widor and Mr Dupre. Oh and I love the closing scene with theHammond B3 in the foreground.

[@PierreFrancoisDUBATTENTI]

Ahah thank you; at least, one person did notice the nod to our last concert with Rhoda Scott^^

[@lphnmed482]

A bit of a shame about the 32ft reed not speaking properly on bottom F for the F minor symphony 😔, but otherwise many many congratulations on a fantastic recital. The programme, performance and production is superb. Much enjoyed, thank you!

[@cromorno8749]

The free combination system was already a thing in Italy, at least since 1790s, as well as harmonic flutes

[@Pipe-organ-recordings]

Wonder work PF

[@OurFatherInHeaven37]

dobra mokra gra, akordy i harmonia ma szansę wybrzmieć!!!!! Brawo Karol ;)

[@TurtleFL]

Check the tuning of that 32 foot Pedal rank at bottom F (Fa) used in Widor's Toccata, if you haven't already. Maybe it's just me, but it sounded off.

[@Paulofibonelli]

Is there any possibility of having the concerts recorded at the console itself again? The sound quality is way better so and the quick talking btw the registrants isn't disturbing at all IMO

[@TurtleFL]

46th minute.... just can't resist using that Septieme, can you. :-"

[@TurtleFL]

Yes, Cavaille-Coll put all those mutations there for a reason. To be played!

[@Klaus-ft1si]

Very nice concert!🙂What was the problem at the beginning of the 4. movement of Widors 5.Symphony, because Mr. Mossakowski started it again?

[@russellmeyer4353]

I'm not sure, but I think there may have been a problem with the registration for the melody in the pedals

[@keplergso8369]

Très beau concert ! Je note que tout à la fin de la Toccata (2 mesures avant l'accord final), Karol joue le dernier fa aigu avec le fa à l'octave en dessous, ce qui n'est pas sur ma partition, et je n'entends pas les petites notes du tout dernier accord de fin (qui font en gros répéter rapidement l'accord), j'ai l'édition de J. Maho, révisée par Widor en 1920. Existe-t-il une autre édition ? La pédale de Crescendo, c'est pratique, Karol n'a même pas besoin de changer de clavier dans cette Toccata (je n'en ai pas et parfois ça me manque).

well i must say i wouldn't think so. but i thank you for the tip. the description actually warned us already . so only at that time the extentful announcement could start.

[@andrewpearce2562]

The recording or playback level is sadly too low :(

[@billecker4422]

Really terrific, but as he is a co-titular organist and not the sole titular organist, should the woring not be stated as such? His co-titular organist, Sophie-Véronique Cauchefer-Choplin is formidable and has been there much longer. The co-title was given so both could pursue other activities as well and share the responsibility and Daniel Roth still plays monthly.

Wasted 14 minutes and didn't hear a single note from this famous organ. I don't know if he was a great organist, I gave up waiting.

[@thedevilsreject23]

Brilliant performance- on a side note has Daniel Roth retired? When do you think this organ will follow others ie Notre Dame for example and modernise the console - I’d hate to play this as is - I’m not a fan of the layout of the stops for one as it’s not easy to quickly find a stop like British organs and the action on the manuals would be heavy and modernisation would enable a single organ full control and able to perform without assistance- this console and layout can’t continue forever it will only deteriorate- the sounds amazing but it’s so impractical to organists who aren’t familiar with it and I’d find the assistants very distracting while I performed - if I was to play a recital I’d want zero distractions and nobody else in the organ loft with me

[@alroberts227]

I can't agree. Love the console and the "team".

[@glasss1978]

Oh my goodness, are you serious? I hope no one ever dares to think turning this magic into a soulless electric beast just so that you can play it easier (without registrants). If you can't handle it, you don't deserve to sit on that bench...

[@wouterattheorgan]

@@glasss1978 exactly, btw the organ is not as heavy to play as you think it is. Barker machines help alot with playing.

[@mjsettles]

seeing as though Mr. Mossakowski was a pupil of Olivier Latry, it may be possible that the instrument could be modernized to some extent as the demands increase for more radical composition and improvisation. only time would tell for this. that being said, i'm sure many would agree that this is too historic of an instrument, especially the combination action at the console, which was a monument of cavaille-coll's work when it was built. it would be very unfortunate to lose such a revolutionary and historic action, and the titular organists at this place will surely continue to recognize this
