Pierre Labric plays Liszt

[@albertpeckham8708]

Magnificent! No one could ask for more!

This recording captures the best impression of the sound and feel of this Organ and building of St Ouen. The capture is not too close, perhaps a little down the nave, but from memory this is all about right. Nice to hear the chamades a la solo! Many thanks for posting!!

Merci pour cet enregistrement, ce témoignage de l'immense talent de Pierre Labric. Il fut l'un des seuls à faire sonner "cet orgue à la Michel Ange" à la perfection. Intelligence des registrations, maitrise de l'acoustique de ce vaisseau, phrasé exceptionnel, utilisation géniale du Récit.... Merci encore Aéolusianer pour cette prise de son !

[@aeolusianer]

Thank you. Any more? I have to see. This has always been one of my favourites. I lost the tape and then found it again a few months ago!

[@ptilou67]

Quelle émotion ! Réentendre Pierre Labric sur "son" Cavaillé-Coll de Saint Ouen ! Pour avoir connu Pierre à la fin des années 80, je puis confirmer qu'il est le seul (avec peut-être le regrété Jacques Charpentier, trop tôt disparu) à faire sonner ce chef d'oeuvre de la facture d'orgue comme il se doit. Ses enregistrements des symphonies de Vierne et Widor, ainsi que l'oeuvre de J. Demessieux, font date dans l'histoire de l'orgue. Merci beaucoup pour cet enregistrement exceptionnel.

quelqun cherche t il les bandes master ??????????????????????

[@birdandthe]

love it !!!, funerailles is on my short list of tunes to be played at my funeral !!! i dont think many of them will understand it !!! .. must write out my list sometime, never know when fate will fall !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@aeolusianer]

@1963mathetes No CD as it is a single track. But download... I will consider that... Thanks

[@mariamagdalenak0380]

Magnifique et encore magnifique...!!!

[@aeolusianer]

@MarkHarmer I made the original recording, it was in 1990. It is not from a CD. It was recorded with professional equipment but the intention was not to have a professional sound recording, it was just for a "souvenir". Glad that you enjoyed it.

[@JFSnail]

Fantastic to hear this piece on this instrument, played with great drama by Msr Labric. Are there any more like this hiding in your vault? :-)

[@a55b47]

I just found this guy (Aeolusianer). I guess I'll just have to spend even MORE time cruising KZbin !!

[@db11711]

well, its simply stunning. If I had to choose ONE cathedral in Europe to visit, this would be the one. The reasons are obvious. (just listen and look at the pictures!)

[@juansintesjover415]

brillante,gracias por el video

[@db11711]

Why on earth is this not on CD ?!?!?!

[@vleermuisje2]

Grandioos! Merci bien.

[@aeolusianer]

Je ne sais pas, je crois avoir entendu cet autre enregistrement une fois. En tout cas, la présente version est un document très émouvant et unique. Je crois que celui de 1974 n'est jamais sorti en disque.

[@Pedalpoint1]

Jeanne Demessieux's music is mixed on me. Somebady please post a video of her Te Deum on this organ... :(

[@1963mathetes]

Liszt/Demessieux, Labric, and Cavaillé-Coll - a winning combination! If this is not available on CD, I don't suppose you could make it available for download? Please?

[@GerardvanR]

@MarkHarmer Most old churches in France were built in the 12th and 13th century. The acoustics in these churches were based on the Gregorian chants, the monks sang, and not on a big Cavaille-Coll organ, like this, and on complicated music of Liszt neither. Because of the reverb of almost 8 seconds one hears only a pulp of sound. It's too bad about all the notes Liszt has written down in the score. One can barely hear it.

[@richardwilliamjohnson8566]

??? That's the main reason I enjoy organ music- and why I can't stand listening to recordings from small buildings with no reverb

[@aeolusianer]

Je ne pense pas. En tout cas, dans quel cadre? Puisque c'est un document unique. Mais j'adore ça.

[@birdandthe]

@db11711 if you got acd recorder or mini disc just get a two phono in to a 3mm lead, plug the lead into you r computer input plug and plug the two phono into cd recorder, hey presto !!

[@julorg]

Aeolus sort ça en CD ?

[@birdandthe]

@birdandthe or even easier just download a youtube downloader software (take your pick ) and download it as video or mp3 !! hey presto !!!

[@a55b47]

Technically, & I know this is nit-picking, but St. Ouen is not a cathedral. Rouen has a cathedral, & this is not it. This is (was) a basilica. I syt was because I don't know if it's even that any more. It's no longer used for religious services. So I guess you could say it's just a very large sounding-board for one of the world's most spectacular musical instruments ;-)

[@marsvltor2]

Labric - the last titulaire at S Ouen...

[@arozangl8369]

ou sont les bandes originales ?????????????????

[@757177]

les tempi sont différents de son enregistrement de 1974, je préfère les autres, mais qu'importe, il demeure un interprète exceptionnel, et le seul organiste qui ait vraiment su faire sonner l'ACC de St Ouen.

[@aeolusianer]

Well, just becuse this is the only piece I've reocrded at that time... I know it's a pity.
