Marcel Dupré: Te Deum, op.43

[@charlesdavis5802]

Without a doubt, one of the greatest living organists… but I do wish he'd smile now and then. Blessings,

Bravo Philippe D. Admirable: le mieux que j'ai entendu de toi. Bravo Ferderico S: une vidéo tourné avec un bon équilibre de nous montrer l'organiste, l'orgue et l'église. La pièce (écrite en 1945) me térrifie! Je ne peu pas m'éloigner l'effet aggressif (guerre à proximité) de la louange d'un Te Deum. A la fin, je ne ressens pas de la joie.

Very nice--very exciting!

Another spectacular organ video from Federico Savio -- he has recorded the performer so that you can see his hands and feet. His videos set a new high standard for the quality of organ performance recordings on KZbin.

Hi Doug; Are you still cooking? And I don't mean tunafish casserole. 2019 AD

This piece was originally published by H.W. Gray in A New Anthology and has since been out of print. If you look up Crescendo Music Publications, they have republished it, as well as other out-of-print or hard to find scores.

T_T this music just fills my heart with hope for me becoming a good organ player! Outstanding! I like this composer now besides J.S. Bach !! Thanks! ^^

[@octavegeigen4]

éventuellement, la composition la plus difficile orgue de Marcel Dupré

[@polsterj]

(II-II) In Germany it was Abt Vogler who had the fundamental ideas for the romantic, in France it was Cavaillé-Coll who had great influence to the organ playing then and after him. All Saint-Sulpice organists loved ans respected their intrument, why do you think that the organ hasn't made through what the ND organ made through?

[@albireo1949]

Even if, perhaps, there are a few rhythmic infelicities in the performance of this difficult work, short of memorization--in which case note perfection would be very illusive--the performance is excellent. The late M Dupre would probably favor a slower tempo because of the acoustic richness of Saint--Sulpice and to also, more likely, make sensible the plain chant melody with it's traditionally moderate tempo.

[@charlesdavis7087]

Excuse me dear; although I agree with you, how is it you would know that? I'm not criticising, it's just I'm not all that fimular with this work... and would like to but Phillipe a mink... if you know I mean. CVD

[@charlesdavis7087]

How right you are. Did you study organ with Kenneth Williams? Or is this just your way of putting on musical affectations over the internet?

[@MrNivelle]

@musichiere70 On peut aussi ajouter le chemin de croix.

[@polsterj]

(I-II) You don't really know how important the st-sulpice organ is, do you? Not only the sound of the organ was and is so important. Vierne, Frack, and Widor, they were children or young men when Cavaille-Coll built his masterpiece. There was no romantic literature, daniel roth said it, the organ inspired Vierne, Widor and Frack, and also the organ at Notre-Dame. What would Widor's organ music be like if the old Clicqout-organ had ben stayed?

[@musichiere70]

Pas du tout! Les pièces les plus difficiles de Marcel Dupré sont: les "3 Esquisses", la "Suite en fa mineur" et "Evocation".

[@charlesdavis7087]

Oh yah, that's easy for you to say.

[@charlesdavis7087]

I believe.

@costasimpson: The gregorian theme!

[@Rheinlander95]

The d in measure 81 was a quarter beat short.

[@WinrichNaujoks]

+Rheinlander95 Are you serious?

[@soamesmagillacuttie9451]

+Martin Organist of course not, silly.

[@charlesdavis7087]

God! What kind of Virgo are you, dear?

[@charlesdavis7087]

Oh my God. Not a fucking quarter beat short. Maybe we should fly over to old Paris and spank him. I know I would like to.

[@charlesdavis7087]

I wake your smile.

[@charlesdavis7087]

Dear Philippe; Sounds about the same as when you played it back in 2000-something-or-another. Still waiting for your smile. Have you thought about a rich daddy... in America?
