Absolutely wonderful performance. I really enjoyed that. I also loved the organ - I wasn't sure if I would like it in 19c French repertoire but I was totally convinced. What a delightful video to find on a Saturday morning!

Wow, what a 1st movement and what a set of variations! I had no idea that something like this was part of Widor's 5th. Very well done.

Brilliant. I haven't heard the organ being played in a long time. Delighted to have found this channel. Thankyou.

Of course everyone knows the Toccata, and it is a fabulous piece which I played on the 5-manual Rushworth at Christ's Hospital in my youth. But this first movement is even more rich in its contrasting colours and moods. I particularly like the organo pleno section in the middle, with full-bodied diapason tone compared to the more flashy reeds used to great effect elsewhere. Thanks Ed, for an amazing performance which got a well-deserved ovation.
