Not only is he on tempo, but he's managed to produce an archetypal performance all organists should hear👍❤️

I love the tempo that this organist played the beautiful piece of music.
He slowed it down just enough for me to enjoy all the chord changes that makes this an exciting piece of organ repertoire to learn, master and hopefully perform in this acoustically alive room.
Also, I love when an organist takes the time and effort to slide onto an organ bench with just the clothes on his back and plays "a memory".
Hats off.

[charlesbrown]

I really love the sound of this organ and the way it speaks in the space of St. Eustache

[WINCHANDLE]

lovely performance of a favorite piece.

Has this organ been altered from the stoplist that A. CC installed when new? If so it is no longer and A. C.-C. organ but a bastardized version of fads. How did they install the controls of an electric console to make with a tracker organ. DE magnets to open the valves on the Barker Levers, one would hope.
