Eugène Gigout - Toccata (Organ + Drums)

This recording is a little experiment to show how sometimes different genres that seem to be so far from each other can sound much closer just by changing perspective. I haven't changed a single note of Gigout's original composition.

The more I know, the more I realize what I don't know... This was a lot of fun. Thanks for making my horizons that much broader.

Well done. Thanks so much for recording and sharing. Generated a big smile here.

This was FANTASTIC! Wow - thanks - THis is one of my favorite organ pieces - and you have made it better!

[elyucatecoluke]

Holy shit I would have never expected it to be that brilliant ...pretty good

[armandoturra]

Geniale la il batterista, gli ha dato corpo a tutto il pezzo! Ottimo

[parisalan]

I was prepared to not like this, but you're absolutely right about mixing genres. Thanks.

[philippearnon]

C'est vraiment très bien ! Bravo à tous les deux.

[stefanoalderighi]

Ottimo video, lo scopro per caso solo oggi dopo tutti questi anni! Complimenti!

[james.flores]

What a fantastic postlude this would make! Haha. Well done.

[SalutToi_HunnyBunny]

That's BOSS!! More, more MORE! You guys are fan-damn-tastic! And I dig your vids on Instagram too. Would be fantastic to hear you both at the BBC Proms and tear the dome off. #righteous! Peace.

I play the organ and I love metal. Here my dreams come true.

[lulinasser]

This is insanely good! Bravo! I don't know how you make your fingers move this agile while wearing that many rings! It's like a hard core Liberace, haha!

[WoodymC]

ABSOLUTELY made my day! Add an E-guitar -- and this would be the most perfect "metal" song EVER! 🙂
(Remember: Even a reasonable number of stops is made of metal, so this would be technically correct, haha!)
This will definitely go into my "Featured Music" playlist.

Loved this! Shame there's not much 16' on the pedals though. The spectrum of sound could be so much bigger!

[GhaithMu]

Magnifique!! faites Bach et vivaldi! continuez! c'est du metal avec un mélange classique! très subtile, bravo les gars! :)

[paulbrennan]

Just discovered this by accident and had to hear. I must say as a classical buff, this is a very interesting arrangement indeed. I would like to know what Mr. Gigout would have to say about this dynamic performance. Greetings from Canada.

Bello! Se ne facessero di più di queste rivisitazioni! Da migliorare la qualità audio dell’organo! Comunque spettacolare👍🏻

[MelTwo]

is there a downloadable mp3 of this? ill pay. I agree with the earlier comment, the bass pedal didn't come through too much on the final mix.

[revtonynewnham]

It works well. I like adding other instruments to organ. Keep it up!

[johnclaeys]

Sounds like a Rick Wakeman solo album.
