Suuuuper gespielt! Das Stück ist sauschwer. Respekt👍

[@robertmartin5494]

This a musical Gem. Brilliantly Composed and played by this gifted Organist.

[@orb3796]

I've been yearning for something that scratches the itch I have that can usually only scratched by Bach's organ preludes and fugues. I finally found it, Guilmant was a contrapunctual genius!

[@robmcginn4484]

Wow! I would love to hear this played on a Cavaille Coll ! A. Guilmant is one of my favourites!

[@alex21081977]

It was the first time I heard this work by Alexandre Guilmannt, and I can say that the work and interpretation surprised me positively. Congratulations maestro!

[@jmdujardin]

M. Schneider, c'est un grand plaisir pour moi , après avoir écouté la 3eme marche nuptiale, d'écouter maintenant cette 5eme sonate , en particulier cette merveilleuse fugue. Alexandre Guilmant y déploie tout son savoir-faire...et vous aussi ! merci, merci .

[@arpschneider]

AMAZING!!! I have NEVER heard this piece before, but I was in tears by the time we reached the end. Excellent combination of music and organ. Klais instruments are my all-time favorite German organ.

[@bernhardbendfeldt9335]

Berührend und eine Freude, zuzuhören!

[@Adrianomarino]

questo finale è memorabile: la fugua ti rimane in testa tutto il giorno

[@stuartrichardson5699]

FANTASTICH danke Maestro

[@christianhauf2018]

Bravo 👍 genial gespielt - Chapeau 👍👍👍 man hört gebannt und freut sich darauf, wie Sie jeden einzelnen Themeneinsatz neu vorbereiten und einführen - absolut atemberaubend - wow 😯

[@erichkusterer6339]

Da kann ich nur zustimmen. Chapeau.

[@Shyguy71588]

What a majestic piece!

[@jameswall6270]

Masterful in every way

[@user-nk5jb8dj1s]

C'est joué avec flamme et le crescendo est parfait, notamment grâce à l'instrument. Bravo à l'organiste.Viellen Dank !

[@bernarddesaintvaulry5366]

B je confirme!😊👏

[@camilloflaim8512]

Good composition with many great soloutions. Can to bè for great basilica or cathedral.

[@oliviermoser9788]

Congrats Mr Schneider. well interpretation. Indeed, the organ sound more german than french but your art of playing is very generous.

[@nelsonwhaley6348]

What a superb piece, so well played

[@dariogiorgiutti9418]

Emotioning!!

[@d.vanderploeg480]

Fabulous!!!

[@bartbroekhuizen5617]

Beautiful piece and well played! I like this version, Ben van Oosten played this one also in St. Ouen, but the recording of this one is better and has more clarity and articulation.

[@klaarins]

Heel mooie muziek, geweldig gespeeld

[@TubaMirabella]

Super!!!

[@innocenzobarrera1505]

magnifico.

[@stefanhempel2354]

Guilmant ist schön Fugal sehr wohlklingende Orgel grüße aus Berlin Johannesstift

[@dkeithtag]

When I get to Germany, may I come visit you and your marvelous instrument, perhaps sit at a masterclass? Working on a project for Herkuleesaal Munich.

[@dalerider3124]

BRAVO for the composition & composer - for the musician - for the instrument and the acoustic in which it thrives - and to GOD who made them all.

[@arpschneider]

AMEN!!!

[@bernarddesaintvaulry5366]

Entendre cette oeuvre est toujours un plaisir!

[@Nooticus]

Very nice fugue indeed!

[@rogernichols1124]

More than "nice ", I'd say. It proves that counterpoint can convey intense emotion when structured in this quasi symphonic way.

[@dallinbissett1992]

This is a great fugue. I liked your interpretation of it as well. Any chance sheet music is available from you?

[@randompianistis4670]

Dallin Bissett just go to IMSLP, Guilmant page and complete score

[@rogernichols1124]

This is an awesome piece of writing matched perfectly by a flawless interpretation and dazzling technique. Guilmant is rather out of fashion nowadays because, perhaps, his inspiration isn't consistently brilliant. This section of the 5th sonata is an exception and cam stand alone as a recital tour de force.

[@camilloflaim8512]

Did you have played one concert at church S. Ignazio on Rome? Because i remember one organist Schneider on S.Ignazio organ Tamburini with 3 manuale for one concert. I was organist sometime on basilica S.Francesca romana near Colosseum.

[@BernhardSchneider1309]

I'm sorry, I never played a recital in S. Ignazio.

[@Frost67915]

great performance! do you know the name of the chorale?

[@BernhardSchneider1309]

As I know the melody of the chorale was newly invented by Guilmant, similar to C. Franck's Chorales.

[@Frost67915]

@@BernhardSchneider1309 thank you

[@robertgift]

Sounds like the BWV 577 "Gigue" fugue subject.

[@jtoddmusic7090]

It starts out that way, certainly (although in a different meter) but morphs into something else. I liked the subject.

[@oliviermoser9788]

Grüss aus Lausanne :-)

[@WMAlbers1]

Well played. Great organ... although not sounding so French...

[@swc789rjp]

It's a Klais....VERY German...LOL

[@MichiHeissel]

Whats the Name of the Choral?

[@BernhardSchneider1309]

It is not a certain Choral. The melody was invented by Guilmant, like César Francks chorals.

[@MichiHeissel]

@@BernhardSchneider1309 im Internet habe ich aus verschiedenen Quellen gelesen, dass der Choral zur Fasten-/Osterzeit zählt... demnach muss es doch einen Lied - Text geben?

[@BernhardSchneider1309]

Die Frage tauchte weiter unten schon einmal auf. Mir ist kein solcher Choral bekannt und bisher konnte niemand einen Hinweis auf eine zitierte Choralmelodie geben. Ich lasse mich aber gerne belehren.

[@Lucius_Chiaraviglio]

The first part especially sounds like a church hymn.
