J.S. Bach : Passacaglia BWV 582 - Jean-Baptiste Dupont

[@ThePapsforshort]

...both Jean-Baptiste and Olivier Latry are extraordinary organists, my favourites for sure. I heard a recording of Jean play Bach's Toccata, Adagio & Fugue in C maj uploaded on KZbin about 10 years ago. It changed my direction from piano to organ. Thank you KZbin and Jean-Baptiste, we are all so lucky!

Excellente interprétation sur un orgue d'exception de cette magnifique pièce.

[@boris5607]

Thank you for this play, comrade. This piece cannot be played without a deep appreciation and love for all Bach music. Thanks!

[@sackwhacker]

Always wonderful to hear the grandeur of a Cavaille-Colle organ.

[@marianocarpanese9956]

The romantic disposition of this very performing instument is very good for Bach's pieces too. Great Dupont and exceptional Cavaillè Coll organ with the mechanical transmission!!

[@RalphLooij]

Excellent playing, thanks!

[@frereM]

M. Dupont's is about the most powerful and straight-forward performance of this piece as I have ever heard. He performs with great authority on a magnificent instrument. My compliments to a consummate artist.

[@michaelstevens3854]

Superb interpretation! I love the pleno sound of this organ with the Passacaglia

[@larshenrikjensen9135]

Mindblowing. Bravo Jean-Baptiste, standing applause! What a magnificient master piece and what a performance!

Bellissima interpretazione e registri fantastici. Forse la migliore mai ascoltata. COMPLIMENTI

[@marksaus]

Amazing interpretation, that organ sounds SO powerful...

[@MDLRX8]

And to think some say that Cavaille-Coll instruments cannot play Bach! I think you have proved those critics wrong. Beautiful playing, and I love how much variety in registration you achieved even without changing manuals very often.

[@bbinchi]

Bravo, Jean-Baptiste! This is a wonderful performance. 🙏💛

[@somdcelt]

Outstanding performance the shear power of that organ and those pedal reeds gives me chills every note brilliant interpertation thank you for all your videos

[@fmcc19]

Always love hearing this instrument played by someone who knows it so well. Wonderful registrations. The constantly changing camera perspectives make it hard to watch - so I just close my eyes and enjoy.

[@francoisvaillancourt7309]

Of the many interpretations of this magnificent piece of music, in my opinion, this interpretation on such an historic instrument stands out. Food for the soul. Which I was there.

[@francoisvaillancourt7309]

That is wish I was there.

Hello mr Baptiste! I am an expert listener..I cannot play myself..but I know exactley how it should sound like. And your way to play is the best I ever heard!!! Absolutley fantastic!! Just the way I want it in every aspect!! Thank you so much for the perfect performance!!🤗🙏🙏🙏

Beau parti tiré à la fois de cet orgue somptueux et de la passacaille. Mes félicitations, une interprétation autant lumineuse que sombre telle qu'il me semble voulue par le Cantor.

[@serhiysalov1585]

Magnificent! The best Passacaglia online so far! I just wish the "spacemen" of the sort of Carpenter, Varnus and a German guy (Heintz or something like that) all actually went to outer space instead of littering this great music with ridiculous registrations. J S Bach reportedly said that his art of organ playing was fairly simple : "the right note at the right time". Well, nowadays he would have added :" with the right stops out". BRAVISSIMO MAESTRO DUPONT, you are my Bach saviour!

[@MikeK2100]

I got spoiled with this piece at E. Powers Biggs Back at Zwolle rendition and this one also nails it for me. I call this Bach's sad one, yet it has both majesty and joy hidden it it. It strikes me as Renfield's version of this is life! Great job!

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

Full Organ Mode (That is all the Stops, Ranks, & Couplers turned on) being used? It sounds suitable for this piece.

Merveille ✨

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

Very interesting how the Keys that correspond to the Pedals move when the couplers are activated so that people can see what's going on more clearly. On Digital Organs it would get cooler if all the keys & pedals had light that glow when they were hit, this way when the couplers were activated people can see what's going on in Full Organ Mode (all Stops & Couplers). Here's the same Piece on a Harpsichord:kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmGUqGuDpbSerq8 played by E Power Biggs.

[@bbinchi]

Hi Matt, how about playing the complete Passacaglia in c-minor BWV 582? Then would you like to play some Vierne? I bet his "Hymne au Soleil" from the 24 Pièces de Fantaisie would sound great on that organ. 🙌

[@goki6548]

GREAT!!

[@JohnPeterPressonProtopsaltis]

All the German organ purists I know told me that Bach would sound muddy on a French romantic organ. This sounds pretty articulate to me

@@JeanBaptisteDupont The Stops that say "Carillon" on them. A Stop Tour of this organ would never hurt cause each stop does something different, & Full Organ mode is suitable for almost every piece.

Il a trois manuels à sa disposition ! Pourquoi ne les utilise-t-il pas ? On peut tirer beaucoup plus de ce travail que lui. J'ai étudié cette œuvre moi-même et je l'ai souvent jouée et interprétée en concert. Il me semble que son jeu d'orgue ici est réduit à partir des notes plutôt qu'interprété. Heureusement, il joue sans agogics....

[@JeanBaptisteDupont]

J'attends de pouvoir écouter votre version avec impatience : ce sera sans doute une grande leçon d'interprétation !

[@llserdr1]

@@JeanBaptisteDupont Bonjour, M. Dupont, Malheureusement, il n'y a pas d'enregistrement et je n'ai pas d'instrument ici à Madère. Mais j'y reviendrai volontiers dès que je serai de retour en Allemagne en avril et que j'y ferai un enregistrement, que j'aimerais mettre sur KZbin. Ma critique ne porte que sur la Passacaille de Bach ; vos autres enregistrements sont brillants - surtout le B-A-C-H de Liszt : écrasant et injouable pour moi sous cette forme ! Mais vous pouvez trouver la 5e Symphonie de Widor, que j'ai enregistrée il y a des années, sous mon nom sur KZbin. Avec mes meilleures salutations!
