What is 78rpm records?

One detail I never noticed before is an electric bell above the pedals on the left side.

Commovente

This recording of the Bach Fantasia in G minor is one of the most impressive I have ever heard. Such mastery of the music and the instrument. The musical architecture is stunning: a cathedral of sound in a cathedral. Here the genius of Bach is transmitted through this moving performance by the great organist and composer Louis Vierne. I love your digital rendition of the old recording. Thank you for sharing!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZIIIIIIIIINGGGG!!!!!

個性万歳🎉

A bit random but I just found some 1922 ticket stubs to a concert with Mischa Elman as the lead artist. Used as shims for an old piano keyboard. I did say Random 😊

What an amazing performance

So awesome..thank you sir Elman❤

Great sound! Better than any transfer of this I’ve heard before.

Legendary virtuosity technique!!!

C'est tres émouvant 😢

Thank you for the video, but the recording does seem to be running too fast.

Fun facts: Wilhelmus dates to1572. It was only made the official national anthem of Netherlands in1932, so it isn't really the "oldest" national anthem, it has the oldest MUSIC used for a national anthem. The melody was borrowed from a well-known Roman Catholic French song titled "Autre chanson de la ville de Chartres assiégée par le prince de Condé". If you look that song up on TH-cam you'll see the similarities. The French version is often played as a march.

My teacher Jane Coawan, a feuermann pupil, tells a funny story of this recording. Apparently Feuermann was less than impressed by the quality of the orchestra; he had a major outburst where he insisted the orchestra played scales as they were badly out of tune. Jane who was observing the recording, looked on in horror, whispering to Feuermann ‘you can’t treat Sir Malcom Sargent (the conductor) like that- he’s a knight of the realm!’ 😂

I concur with the previous comments that given this recording was made only three years after the conversion from acoustic to electric transcription, that its quality is truly remarkable. This excellent sound is even more surprising, given the challenges to make such a recording in the reverberant space such as Notre Dame, yet retain some of its distinct ambience. Kudos to the recording engineer, as well as Maestro Vierne. It is appropriate that we listen to this performance in anticipation of the reopening of the Cathedral after a five year restoration period. Thank God, the organ apparently suffered little damage from the terrible fire, smoke, and water poured into the building to extinguish the flames. Finally, the photos attached to this video are interesting, particularly the one depicting the very serious expressions of the assistants surrounding Maestro Vierne. In today’s world, a smile would not be out of place in such a gathering!

Surface noise used to drive me nuts. From The Velvet Brush to Keith Monks Record Cleaning Machine - I tried them all. Then suddenly, one day, I quit. Cold turkey.

After a minute the hiss disappeared. . .

I'm not one for headphones. For years I was a member of the "lunatic fringe" searching for The Absolute Sound. Eventually, I gave up my Quads, Dahlquists and Oracle. Today, my tiny PSB system is augmented by a Sennheiser subwoofer and I am at peace with the world.

All right Marc. You've got me. I'll subscribe.

good !

Perfection, and beyond even th 0:30 at! God gives us rare visions of eternity. Here is one. ⚡

One of the greatest Chopin performers. Listen to his 80 plus minute recording of all Chopin!

So beautiful❤ Thank you.

My second favourite twentieth century organ work (after Duruflé's Prelude and Fugue on Alain). Wonderfully played on an excellent instrument. Many thanks for the upload.

Really well done, thank you for your work!🙏 The bass and tenor come thru surprisingly well

Superb transfer, kudos.

Very nice...your writing is also perfect...i don't like noise reduction...great rare upload

thank you for sharing this absolutely wonderful recording! So spiritual music and playing

These are amazing transfers. Thank you.

Such beautiful melody played with so much feelings by Rachmaninoff. Will look for this music so I an learn it and play it.

WOW! It's rather impressive. Beautiful!

For those that may not be aware of it, this is only the second recording of the Dvorak Concerto (Feuermann’s was the first) and the only recording made by a cellist who was born before the concerto was composed!

Churchill was boss at piano

Very beautiful transfer of an immortal performance! Many thanks! The cello is such a soulful instrument.

How does what I assume to be a digitally sampled organ achieve such a powerfully realistic sound? Or am I wrong about this instrument? Well played in either event.

So subtle. Amazing that such recordings exist. Thank you.

This is great! 😎🎹

I for one prefer the recordings of the young Szell to those of the older martinet of Cleveland. Invariably I find a more spontaneous, singing quality in the orchestral playing of his earliest recordings, like this one, which is great not just because of the incomparable Casals but because of the committed playing of the Czech players. This performance has a freshness that I've never heard in any other recording of this piece. Other, subsequent cellists may have had a silkier tone than Casals, but he and the orchestra play as if they were composing the piece as they perform it, as if it were a great drama from moment to moment.

🕊 *Classical compositions soar on the wings of grace, whispering serenity to our souls.*

Great recording. Please keep transferring other 78s like this gem. Wise decision to avoid filtering the surface noise.

Best interpretation I've ever heard, despite the recording quality.

Taking a challenge was not the same as taking it to the next level. Challenging people, then competitive people, Creative people?

Great

This is the best transfer I’ve ever heard.

what a performance!!! thank you for posting it!
