Te Deum Prelude - Charpentier

[@lindabillingsley7108]

I had this organ hymn for my wedding procession. My son walked me down the aisle on February 8, 2020...❤

[@Jacaranda22za]

I had it played at my wedding too, in 1977! One of my favourite pieces of music!

[@johnpark8867]

32 years ago I walked down the aisle to this, I still adore it and my husband.

[@jeninren]

I walked down the aisle to this 8 months ago :D Congratulations on your long marriage!

[@lindabillingsley7108]

I will walk down the aisle February 8 2020 to this wonderful music!

[@MsXizan]

Better this stuff than the crap written by Wagner for the wedding scene in the opera *Lohengrin.* *Lohengrin* literally dissolves in murder and betrayal mere minutes AFTER the wedding. What kind of omen is music like that?

[@prairiedweller8917]

In that order?

Great organ playing. All for the Glory of God the Almighty

[@ingensvidcz5390]

The pedal stops are so amazing combined with the sound of the manual! Perfect instrument, composition and organist obviously met.

[@korzen2649]

I have goosebumps. Pipe organs are from the Baroque the best tool to show emotions. Great performance, greetings from Poland.

[@mdhalprin]

I've heard several renditions of the prelude, but your version remains my favorite; the tempo is perfect for contemplating each note and the breadth of the tones comes through beautifully, even in the lo-fi recording. I'm not one for church-going, but it brings tears to my eyes and makes me want to worship - every time. Beautifully performed! Bravo!

[@joseclarosclaros]

Lindisima interpretacion,un ORGANO como esee gustaria tocar para la gloria de SEÑOR JESUCRISTO.!!!

[@paulcaswell2813]

Try Deschamps at Albi Cathedral (KZbin). Fiery French reeds at their finest - and a brilliant performance too.

[@jekorb]

Just beautiful!! I can't wait to hear this gorgeous piece played as my daughter and her new husband come down the aisle after their wedding in August. So majestic!

[@awkwardlykylie]

Walking down the aisle to this one week from today. Thank you for posting this video, it makes my heart nearly beat out of my chest every time I listen to it!

[@lyndon1904]

Glad you like it! I hope all goes well :)

[@woofer32]

how can anybody not enjoy this, such majesty and fullness.

I dont get tired of hearing this wonderful. Musician playing this piece

[@obxemt]

I've heard and played this dozens of times, but this level of clean, crisp articulation redefines this piece for me!

[@dixonqwerty]

I have to comment again. This is one of the most beautiful things I have heard being played on an organ ever.

[@ladeeda945]

12 years ago you sent me the arrangement for my wedding. I still come back and visit this video. 😊 Thank you again so much!

[@marioramos638]

Did you marry the king of france? hahahah

[@Yorkshirefreckles]

I didn't tell my husband I was walking to this untill the day before. He cryed

[@piffilipian]

Wow, that was amazing - as soon as me and my sister heard it we know its the one for her wedding!

[@kenesseymig29]

It was the music on my wedding, in the curch St.Laszlo in Budapest! Congratulation Mr. organist artist! Kind regards from Hungary

[@gemmahartung4574]

I walked down the aisle to this! Lovely piece of music.

[@allenjenkins7947]

A magnificent instrument, a magnificent player and a magnificent arrangement. 'Nuff said.

[@lyndon1904]

Thank you, Allen. In the middle of a rather frustrating day, it was really nice to read your kind comment :)

[@valerietaylor9615]

@allenjenkins7947 Not to mention, a magnificent piece of music.

[@greggrass]

I gave Lyndon's arrangement to the organist at my church in Warwick, New York for our entrance at our wedding and it was glorious. Was just listening to it again for pleasure.

[@ROOTZpromo]

My daughter is 9 yrs old, learning this piece for string orchestra, she is on cello, and she says she LOVES your rendition, and is practicing along with you. Thanks from Boston, MA

[@bonniherself]

Had this for my wedding processional. Hearing this just brought a huge smile to my face. Thanks. :)

[@francescapreece431]

Still listening and still enthralled by your beautiful rendition four years on after having this played on our wedding day.

[@lyndon1904]

francesca preece What a lovely comment thank you!

[@neverard]

Absolutely stunning - by far the best rendition of this beautiful music

[@DusanPavlicek78]

Amazing. I've known this video for years and I'm still coming back to it again and again because your rendition of the piece is the best I've heard and it is pure magic. Thank you.

[@Elizabeth-jd3mn]

I walked down the isle to this on 3rd June 2000. It still gives me goosebumps😊

[@Polomokipo23]

Éternel grandiose cette musique merci Marc Antoine Charpentier.

[@ClassValedictorian]

It's so beautiful it makes want to cry. It makes me think of all that God has done for us.

[@grahamcaldecott]

I was privileged to be at college with this brilliant musician.

[@gleitma]

What a great way to praise God! May this music sound throughout the entire world!

[@dofin54]

MAGNIFIQUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Oaktownrob]

Bravo! A Great way to start the day. What a Joy great music is, when rendered by a caring artist. Enjoyed your playing very much.Looking forward to your other posts. San Francisco Bay

[@dixonqwerty]

Absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!! Very nice. Thank you for uploading this, this is so beautiful.

[@organnut]

and a fan in Vancouver Canada. Beautiful performance. Thanks for posting.

[@russellbond1232]

Amazing. I so want to play this in a Baroque church

[@frenchiecocorico1]

Very wonderful; It is exactly the right way to play this "Te Deum" Ouverture because Te Deum is a latin motet to glorify the Lord.

[@eilishfisher]

Majestic, elegant, beautiful, graceful, delicate, inspirational - many thanks for posting this, you made my evening!!

[@chrissybayby]

I love this video, always. Lyndon sent me the music several years ago and the people love it when i play our pipe organ and add the brass every eight measures.

[@quistadore]

Magnifique, un grand moment de musique

[@Flori-an]

The powerful bombarde impresses anew every time...

[@Knappa22]

Still loving this after all these years of watching it. You end it with a well-deserved flourish Lyndon. I wish my organ had a GenCan thumb piston like that!!

[@Knappa22]

Gosh, I've left so many comments on this piece. I love everything about it - Lyndon's playing, the interpretation, the organ, the majestic sound. I would love to play this organ lol!

[@markrocovich2234]

This is the way an organ is supposed to sound!!! The solo voices are so crisp, but the pedal stops are soul-stirring..I wish i had this type of ammunition on the Mighty Wicks that I played over 40 years ago!! There wouldnt be a stained-glass window left intact in the nave after i got through!!

[@OriginalMindTrick]

Agreed. This organ has good power and tonality.

[@OrganPianoGuitar]

Very nicely done!!! The pace brings out the majesty of this beautiful song. Great job!!!

[@gaggymott9159]

Extremely MAJESTIC! And even more impressive, that you are playing with no music; Superb!

[@Kyrie159]

Excellent! Thank you. One of my favorites.

[@goblondie]

wonderful, you play wonderful,,thanks :-)) love it

[@unequally-tempered]

OH BRILLIANT! ABSOLUTELY SUPERB! Thanks. Very much as it should be. Are my ears deceiving me? There's a nice rawness about this that feels like an effect of the temperament . . .

[@gallicman1]

Awesome performance, from California.

[@Quim1441]

I love this composition and your performance is the best i have seen with organ. You made me cry. Great!

[@SuperBabel2]

Je ne sais pourquoi je commente...j'ai lu de telles horreurs...!!!! C'est évident, cette musique est de qualité, cet organiste la rend accessible à tous ! Merci pour lui ! D.BABEL

[@festusthefiend]

There are two performances of this piece that really touch me; yours and the one by the parliament de musique with the period instruments. I admire you for your love for this music, sir!

[@valerietaylor9615]

I’m not a big fan of the organ, but that rendition of Charpentiers Te Deum prelude sounded magnificent. One of my favorite French Baroque pieces.

[@michaelrex6948]

Really? There are organs that I prefer, sure, but I certainly don't think this is a bad one... granted, though, I think the best recording (both on the level of organ/registration and interpretation) of this piece still goes to Frédéric Deschamps on the Albi Cathedral organ (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmSUnJqIj9aYntU ).

[@valerietaylor9615]

@michaelrex6948 I like this interpretation because he used notes inegales. That always makes the piece sound much jauntier.

[@tuok84]

Wow, great work!

[@captebbtide]

Makes one hell of a powerful wedding march!

[@sebastianpawlak]

The best performance of "Te Deum", I have ever heard. Get me know, when it will be possible to buy your record.
