LEFÉBURE-WÉLY: SORTIE in E FLAT (video+sheet music)

[@robertcollinson]

In October 1998 my wife and I walked back down the isle to this after we were married. Still going strong!! What a fab piece of music. It brought back so many fab memories.

[@robertcollinson]

Sadly, 23 years and a day after we walked down the aisle to this, my wife passed away after a very long battle with illness.

[@chslamenik9131]

@@robertcollinson That's tough! Condolences to you, may the fabulous music be your comfort when times are hard. I hope you were able to find as much happiness even after such a tragic blow. Wishing you much strength and perseverance, greetings from Europe.

@@robertcollinson Rob, I'm so sorry. We also walked down the isle to this. I'm praying for you and am convinced that we shall all meet again. Blessings and strength to you.

Magnifizent music ❤ well played

[@ryanfrederick3376]

Lefebure-Wely always sounds to me like something you'd hear on your way from the cotton candy stand to the carousel.

[@brucealanwilson4121]

My first reaction was to ask if this was a pipe organ or a calliope.

[@ryanfrederick3376]

@@brucealanwilson4121 did he ever write any serious music? I own a stack of it, never really played or bothered with any of it

[@brucealanwilson4121]

@@ryanfrederick3376 I don't know.

[@robt2778]

Apparently Rossini once commented that if Lefebure-Wely had actually taken music seriously he'd have put every other composer out of business

STUNNING PERFORMANCE !! BRAVO !! ENCORE !! WORLD CLASS ORGANIST AND FANTASTIC ORGAN !!

[@Willig452]

Nous sommes nombreux à vous demander .......Mais? Quel est cet instrument ? Une pureté cristalline parfaite !!!!! Et un jeu merveilleux de tout votre talent !!!!! Quel est cet orgue lumineux ?

[@pennywade5408]

My fave piece of organ music.

[@daveflanagan5723]

Superb!

[@matthewb54]

What a great performance of this piece! I've never heard it played better. Having such a fantastic instrument and generous acoustic helps, of course, but the articulation and choice of tempi were spot on for me. Although this sounds as though it should work well on a fairground organ, this performance shows that you need a real person to inject the flexibility and rubato that really bring the piece to life.

[@marcelobrunorodrigues7630]

It looks like carnival or circus music, very amusing although beautiful.

[@JordySchaap]

Or music from a old silent Laurel and Hardy movie

[@mortonbelcher]

Thank you for sharing and including the score --- you make it look like it is so easy to learn to play...

[@123Chevyman]

I am trying it. I think it is not the most difficult thing once you get the rhythm with the foot playing the bass. And the syncopations as well as poyphonic organ music type parts.

[@masterscubaman]

utterly amazing

[@danielmkubacki]

Well played!

[@MaggieKrenek]

Lovely.

[@silvio_rossini]

Beautiful!!!

Beautiful!

[@davidreece6193]

always makes me chuckle this piece. our choirmaster and organist played this one Sunday morning during the flower festival. the crucifer refused to budge until he stopped playing the piece of music he shouted very loudly. Hilarious everyone left the altar priests and choir except the crucifier. By the time the choir and priests etc had gotten back to the Vestry I was page turner for this as well and we turned around when the piece was finished. Looked like the guy was about to burst a blood vessel. He was furious. Anyway lovely piece of music and as I say always makes me chuckle. This could easily have been written for a steam or peddle organ. Great performance as well. The crucifer just walked on when the choirmaster had finished. We did have a good old laugh at his expense as did the congregation, choir and priests.

[@dalerider3124]

The laughing was disgraceful and an offense to The Holy Spirit.

[@janicebentley5048]

It's my very favourite in fact it was chosen on our exit from church when we were married - a marriage made in heaven .Lovely LOVELY!

[@EthanPearson]

@@dalerider3124 How dare people laugh! It's not like God created laughter or our ability to recognize irony or anything like that.

Thank you for uploading your interpretation of M. Lefebure-Wely's Sortie in E Flat. Where is this organ located? Who is the builder of this organ? Happy New Year 2018 !

[@anhann3101]

Its amazing but the last note is mising

[@estellegerthoffert4816]

jolis les pas sages du tout chromatiques!

[@Sjajutami1]

Theatre music🤷🏼‍♂️

[@StoreeDenson]

The composer written it at the organ of St Sulpice where he was titulare organist at the time before Widor. Lefebure-Wely is one of the key figures who brought back french organ music leading to the romantic period.

[@erichkusterer6339]

Ja, aber etwas schmunzeln muss man schon und glauben Sie mir, es ist vielleicht Zirkusmusik, aber es ist nicht leicht zu spielen.

[@canticus7068]

Beautiful played, but the organ sounds not nice! It SCREAMS!

[@SirReginaldBlomfield1234]

It's not recorded that we'll, far too close to the instrument with poor equipment IMO.
