Saint-Sulpice organ, Daniel Roth plays Bach Schübler Chorale "Kommst Du nun", BWV 650

[@TheLightmotiv]

Protestant music in a catholic church. On the finest organ in France music from a German cantor from saxonia. Performed by a German speaking french organist from the Alsace, the French German European heartland. 5 minutes of music full of european atmosphere, perfection, emotion, culture and history. What a long, long way to go through the centuries. Thank you so much.

What Is Protestant Music?

[@ds1868]

There is no such thing as 'protestant' music.

[@pietvandijk5084]

protestants have their own culture, so also their own hymns and interpretation, more Baroque, less Romantic than the catholics. The hymn books of prot. and cath. are very different.

[@GreenTeaViewer]

it's never too late to educate yourself. Don't be ashamed to ask questions!

[@MarekMichalakMusic]

A master composer, a master organ builder and a master organist walk into a bar......... No joke needed, as this is high art and high skill from another dimension.

[@shin-i-chikozima]

The sound of the organ is the sound of the soul

[@class87srule]

Like the 'Praise to the Lord' background music to the intro. Catholics appreciate the Lutheran basis for much of Bach's music (and that of his contemporaries) whilst acknowledging that the theology may differ from ours in certain aspects. Bach raises the bar for both traditions by harmonising what might otherwise be bland or repetitively insistent melodies in his own magical fashion. The Schubler Chorales along with the Passions etc are a priceless treasure for world music. Daniel Roth is an incredible interpreter and without showmanship or fuss shows us the music. Brilliant!

Béni soit le jour où j'ai découvert Bach.

[@maartenbokhout4594]

This is beautifully played - meditatively and peacefully. A masterwork, played by a master.

[@JayyB]

This is probably my favorite Bach chorale, and Monsieur Roth plays it with perfect touch, tempo, and a beautiful registration!

[@BurkhardTerhart]

Mr. Dub-Attenti. You must be the happiest person on earth to be an assistant of Mr. Roth. All your videos are a really heartwarming pleasure to me as an absolute organ enthusiast. Many, many thanks to you and all the others who are involved in this wonderful artwork.

[@PierreFrancoisDUBATTENTI]

thank u )

[@RichardMerrill3Hawk]

I second that! When I have a pain flare-up, I listen to these recordings of Daniel Roth. Nobody plays Bach like him, or plays organ like him! I immerse in the music and the pain is gone in a few minutes. The effect lasts for hours. The fantastic tones of the St. Sulpice organ get part of the credit!

[@peteacher52]

Everything the Master plays is well-nigh perfect.

[@Ann0-23-ky7dq]

A Musician caliber like that of Mr. Roth, is almost unique nowadays, well done.. 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

[@denismeyer6470]

La beauté de ce choral n'a nul besoin d'une immense registration.Monsieur Roth a fait un bon choix.

[@jimh.6697]

Thank you for posting this superb rendition of J.S. Bach's chorale prelude. Daniel Roth again proves conclusively that Bach's works are splendid when played on this basically unaltered since the time of Cavaile-Coll organ, which thank the Lord has escaped being ruined as were so many others of his instruments by the whims of organists who insisted that they could not play Bach and other Baroque and other such composers' works on Cavaille-Colls as he had designed them.

[@michaelgamble296]

What fantastic footwork! What an amazing organist! Then we moved up to the casework, zoomed in to discover it is desperately in need of a good Vacuuming - a Clean!! What is the interior of this organ like? After the tragic event of that horrible fire at Notre Dame these wonderful Cathedrals should be tended with loving care - while they still exist!

[@lavoixdesorgues]

Une très belle vidéo, un grand maître, un instrument exceptionnel et une oeuvre du plus grand compositeur . Tout est parfait!

[@dominiquedupuy2234]

Un orgue plein de ressources et un organiste qui les exploite parfaitement. L'interprétation est brillante. J'ai adoré. Merci et bravo !

[@FromHolbergsTime]

Absolutely beautiful, an exceptional recording and a magisterial performance!

[@為食仔-p3r]

thanks for putting the registrations, it's really helpful for me as a organ amateur

[@Blockedify]

BRAVO!!! Thanks for that WONDERFUL performance and for playing the chorale BEFORE you played the prelude. And especially THANK YOU for publishing the registration. It is MOST fascinating to see what one would use on an instrument such as the St. Sulpice C-C. So IT IS NOT a Marcussen, but the piece works very well on that C-C.

[@642forlife]

Very interesting to see how Daniel Roth handles J S Bach at the Saint Sulpice organ. Great Music presented by a very skillful and experienced musician.

[@enricoc.948]

Johann Sebastian Bach: senza dubbio il più grande compositore della storia, ancora al vertice dopo 300 anni!

[@untersatz32]

Wonderful. Thank you again for a new fine production!

[@tony1961chl]

Absolutamente bellísimo, podríamos estar horas escuchando obras así, gracias

[@incessnant350]

A very nice production all around.

[@PierreFrancoisDUBATTENTI]

+incessnant350 Many thanks !!

[@SheldonBeldon]

I love how long that last G echoes in the church.

[@MrUseur]

very interesting to listen to. Why? Because it so fantastic how Bach overlays the themes, each played by one hand an the feet. For instance, just trying to listen to the theme of the left hand and the feet, nice. And, amazingly all themes fit together in a perfect way. So as Mr Roth does play this piece not too fast (Mr Schweitzer would applaud to that...lol) it is possible to separate all themes when listening carefully, but on the other hand is possible to fit them together at each point in time. I just call it "superposition" of single themes. Don't know whether that is the correct description for it. All in all, very very nice. Thanks to all who made that recording possible. I enjoyed it very much.

[@christrotman2751]

Très joliment joué !

[@lejeffbarker6346]

Génial. Merci !

[@marc49lewis]

A *magnificent* instrument played by a master. What more can you ask for?

[@MarioCastellucci-ee2yq]

Eccellente interpretazione!

[@vanmusician]

I heard M. Roth play this in a recital at St Sulpice celebrating his 30th anniversary as organist there in October 2015.

[@agogobell28]

Je vous remercie d’avoir inclu la registration qui est utilisée pour ce morceau!

[@denox16]

Excelente, sublime!

[@accousticdecay]

Most-respected organist in the world at this time.

[@sparkcannon7707]

Merci beaucoup pour montrer pour nous tous le facon de jouer les pedales dans cette chorale. Pour moi il est tres difficile.

[@arikh75]

C'est sublime...

[@georgemurphy2579]

Widor would have loved to hear this music on his own instrument.He would have been extremely pleased with M. Roth!!!!

[@henriquessilveira]

Magnifique...

[@vanmusician]

I heard him play this piece at his 30th anniversary concert at St. Sulpice in October 2015

[@Pipe-organ-recordings]

Terrific!

[@PetervanDalen3053]

Prachtig! En alweer een bewijs hoe perfect Aristide Cavaillé Coll zijn meesterlijke orgels heeft gebouwd. Bach komt heel goed tot zijn recht in de St. Sulpice.

[@mauritsroos2814]

Heel mooi!

[@domorganits3767]

Wonderful

[@bubffm]

While this oran is clearly not build for Bach's music, Maestro Roth still makes this sound absolutely convincing. Great stuff

[@organbuilder272]

+bubffm Really!! And why is that. It lacks keys, stops, couplers, pipes?

[@PierreFrancoisDUBATTENTI]

+robert shaw Thank you bubffm for your kind comment, which also raises a highly crucial issue ! It however seems that Aristide Cavaillé-Coll did it best, especially in his biggest instruments so that Bach music (and more generally polyphonic music) can sound well and balanced. "On 22 September 1853, A. Cavaillé-Coll wrote the following to J.-N. Lemmens: "... the wind is with classical music; with Bach, you are going to be able to get the approval of the true connoisseurs. Bach's Toccata, as played by Alkan, worked wonders". Having been particularly impressed by the works of Bach as interpreted by J.-N. Lemmens, Cavaillé-Coll decided in 1850 to implement changes in the stoplists of his organs so that this music could be properly performed. He therefore kept the mixtures and mutations of the 18th-century organs he restored or rebuilt in such churches as Saint-Roch in Paris (1842), the Notre-Dame-de-l’Annonciation Cathedral in Nancy (1859), and the Saint-Louis Cathedral in Versailles (1861). However, the most stunning example of this remains the great organ of Saint-Sulpice".

[@bubffm]

+Pierre-Francois DUB-ATTENTI Many thanks tor your informative reply. It shows that CC was well aware of the porential limitations of the symphonic organ to polyphonic music and did his best to work around it whereever possible. Maitre Roth shows that it will work if you know the instrument as well as he does.

[@bubffm]

+robert shaw see below

[@ds1868]

There is no such thing as an organ 'built' for Bach's music.

[@horsebassoon]

Basse de tierce? Why not?! Excellent

[@PierreFrancoisDUBATTENTI]

+horsebassoon Bonjour, oui, même un peu plus (cf. la registration). Les mutations du Solo permettent vraiment de bien dessiner la basse et donnent une chaleur et une présence très impressionnantes.

[@manuelrosales5136]

+horsebassoon - In the early French repertoire Duos are played with the left-hand Grande-jeu de Tierce. His use of this registration work quite well, don't use agree?

[@PierreFrancoisDUBATTENTI]

+Pierre-Francois DUB-ATTENTI Solo mutations for the left hand allow a well-designed bass part and can sometimes give the impression of a soft reed.

[@horsebassoon]

+Manuel Rosales Oh of course! Another nice use of the 3-1/5 Tierce in Bach that I know of is Ton Koopman's recording of the "Christ unser Herr" at Ottobeuren - running bass sounds marvelous on it.

[@Mirage5BR]

Ce n'est pas du "Cavaillé", mais n'oublions pas non plus St-Eustache ! Je suis tout à fait d'accord avec vous, le grand orgue de St-Sulpice joué par le Maître Mr. Roth est tout simplement sublime. Personnellement, je ne me lasse pas d'écouter et réécouter le CD consacré au grand Maître J-S Bach à St-Sulpice paru voici bien des années déjà chez Mottete. Mr. Roth y excelle, comme toujours !

yes, but it all depends on the organ. this registration is perfectly balanced, one can hear all the voices with great clarity... and it manages to fill the whole space of the nave / thanks for your comment
