WONDERFUL!!!. Majestic progression through the harmonious chords of this piece. Nice slow pace that let's the building play the music which is how it was composed. Dramatic, collasal, thrilling is what the French symphonic compositions are all about. Now, I ask, WHERE IS THE REST OF IT???

Thank you very much!! The rest is coming don’t worry, I’m still learning the second movement though 😅 I also want to play all four movements on different organs just for some variety but I will eventually record the whole suite together in one video. Hopefully the second movement and even possibly the third will be recorded in a few weeks!

Wonderful! I hope that you were able to record the other pieces for us too. Can’t wait to hear the 50 psi Tuba Magna!!!

I did record Widor’s toccata and the Boëllmann toccata but I didn’t want to re-upload them again. Also I was getting used to the swell boxes in the widor which meant at one point it you couldn’t hear the organ at all! I might upload the end of one of them as a short so you can hear the tuba!

That was fantastic Archie I really enjoyed that! Did you record any others whilst there? :-)

You’re very welcome and I’m glad you enjoyed! I only really managed to record the widor toccata and the Boëllmann toccata but I didn’t want to re-upload them just yet. Also, as the swell boxes aren’t what I’m used to, it took a bit of time getting used to them so there are points where the swell completely disappears it seems because I shut the box too fast. I might upload the end of the widor as a short so you can hear full organ 😅!

Fab playing Archie. Perfectly adapted in the acoustic too!

Thanks Yiming! Surprisingly I found it easier to play the the metropolitan but that could be because it had a nave division too.

Wow Archie! That organ sounds absolutely amazing and you played that piece brilliantly. Hope you got to record some other pieces whilst you were there. What a thrill to be playing such a beast of an organ though.

Thank you so much richard! I did record some widor and boellman toccata but I didn’t really want to re-upload them just yet. Also there are a few questionable bits in them when I am trying to get my head around the slightly unusual (but really useful actually) swell boxes so there are parts where it’s pretty much silence because I shut them too far. I might release the ends of them as shorts so you can hear full organ 😊
@RichSouthend5 ай бұрын
Glad you got to record some other bits there, but yes, don't share anything you're not 100% happy with - I was just hoping you were given lots of time to play on the organ and it sounds like you were 😀.
