I will have Passacaglia played during my funeral service. Its omnipotent ending in particular does perfectly herald the triumph of rising above the powers and principalities, the rulers of the darkness of this world, passing through every gate, breaking every chain. That would be my only musical requirement. I also hope to have the opportunity to hear this performed in the Notre Dame while being there.
7.38.The whole power of this organ is unbelievable.Bach was the absolute genius, the father of all musical illustrations, and he was the founder of all musical possible harmonics.Without him the music would not have the quality of nowadays.He invented everything and opened the gate to the musical universe.
7.13 The rising of the universal.The master himself stands in front of you. Unbelievable music. Bach was the absolute genius of all musicians, Latry is a champion. God bless all of you.
J'attends avec impatience la renaissance de ce magnifique instrument après le terrible incendie de Notre Dame. C'est beau à pleurer. Et Olivier Latry est un grand maître.
Quelle merveille..comprendre un tel talent, posséder la musique à ce point et sur un instrument aussi complexe relève de l exception.,grandioseelevev l ame.

8:03 brings goosebumps every time, truly the Great Organ of Notre Dame was the most powerful instrument ever constructed by man, and I can only dream to hear it some day, wherever it may end up after the burning
It’s not technically the biggest but it’s certainly among the best. Nothing can compare to those fiery reeds and the pedal bombardés! It is béton restored in anticipation of its return to the glory that is Notre Dame!

The power of chamades :) I have several favourite moments in that piece. The first is when you hear that wood clank at 6:47 and you know you're about to hear something breathtaking, and you get one of the most beautiful build ups to 7:15. Then he very cleverly opens up a 32" reeds to make an illusion that pedal melody is going even octave lower. Later, that sudden change to major at 7:55, and that perfect rubato at 8:39. Of course, the whole piece is beautiful but these moments are the reason why I listen to it almost everyday
Personally I think this performance is by far the best from all performances of Bach's Passacaglia & Fugue. Beautiful & fascinating piece on a gigantesque and wonderful organ. Latry gives in his play an emotional atmosphere which seems to be as if the Heaven comes down to the Earth, and therefore he is my favourite organist. I say thank you him that I understood this organpiece and could learn it. Merci beaucoup! BRAVO!
This is very good and I have seen Olivier perform at the Royal Albert Hall in 2019, but, Simon Preston's performance of this piece is amazing th-cam.com/video/dCBwXnSa3DE/w-d-xo.html
I recently had the privilege of hearing him perform this piece live at the Minnesota Beethoven Festival. Incredible experience, he sounds just as good live.
I heard him play it in November in Kansas City, then again a week later in Washington, D.C. Note-perfect both times. I went up to M. Latry afterwards and told him I'd been at both concerts. He looked shocked and didn't say a word. I felt embarrassed.
This is like a ghost from the past that did not have to be. I always wanted to go to Notre Dame and now it is destroyed. A place so eternal that so many took for granted. At least there are memories and fragments saved. It can be rebuilt but never the same Prometheus. We will always know what was lost.
E Douglas Jensen, I believe you have understood the composition of this piece. It's a dance and Pierre captures the dynamics of this piece. Never lost the theme throughout... love the beginning, not bombastic statement but just simple... color with compele understanding of the musicality of the piece and musical line... best regards, Earle
Cette musique evoque pour moi la souffrance et le combat eternel que nous simples etres humains combattons toute notre vie... chasser les demons qui nous habitent, les noyer au plus profond des abimes, s en debarrasser ! Mais pour cela nous devons payer tot ou tard, cette musique me rappelle a quel point la purete implique le martyr (ponctuel ou parfois a vie). Vous vous rendez compte ? La puissance de cette musique ? Ces vibrations ? Cette pression acoustique... aucun autre instrument ne me l a provoque... je ne suis pas vraiment croyant et pourtant je commence a croire que nous ne sommes pas sur terre par hazard ! La magie ! Tout cela est l inexplicable, le mystere, l autre cote de notre dimension humaine... l immateriel, le neant et son pouvoir sur nous ! On oublie trop souvent que nous ne sommes que de Simples creatures fragiles, poussieres de la galaxie, combinaison de mollecules, de gaz, d electricite, enfants d etoiles, a genoux soumis devant notre titanesque et puissant Cosmos...
One of the greatest organists alive, on one of the most fantastic instruments ever constructed. Parts of this song can only be described as devastating
piece man, piece, not song :P unfortunately, this organ is now pure crap compared to what it used to be at time Cavaillé-Coll finished his works on it. It's sad but people reworked this organ too many times since Cavaillé-Coll, it lacks the original sound, and currently it's just loud but I can't say I like the sound. St. Sulpice in Paris (it's like 2km away from Notre-Dame), St. Ouen (or Audoin, in Rouen) are great examples of Cavaillé-Coll organs that retained their original sound (C-C sound) to present time. I guess those two are the best Cavaillé-Coll organs in the world right now.
Excuse me for asking, but how would you know how this organ souded when Coll finished working on it?... I think you weren't alive back then ;) and don't say because you heard Ouen and Sulpice... those are differente instruments. :) I understand your point of view when you say it has been "reworked" a heck of a lot and that this can decharacterise the instrument (maybe that's the case here) but that doesn't mean that this organ is total crap... Not to forget that the professionals that worked on it are indeed professionals... I doubt they would have hired amateur organbuilders to work on this organ ;)
i did some deep research on that, there are people writing their master thesis' about that instrument. And yes, originally it sounded similar to St. Sulpice, in fact, all Cavaillé-Coll organs that are not reworked sound unique but similar at the same time, you just know when you hear C-C, let it be Sacré Coeur, St. Sulpice or St. Ouen. Notre Dame currently doesn't sound as a Cavaillé-Coll instrument. And don't get fooled, maybe we have better technologies today, but organbuilding is an art, needs some craftsmanship, Cavaillé-Coll was indeed an artisan, he felt, what's right, he was addicted to perfection, he even funded more stops than what was ordered just for feeling that the organ deserves it, his company was always on the border of bankrupt, despite being world-wide famous even during his life. Take E.F. Walcker - they got chosen to build the famous Riga dom organ, now 150 years ago, they weren't chosen to do the restauration works, because they're not good enough. You can be a proffessional but that doesn't mean you're good enough. This organ maybe is not a total crap in pianos, but when on pleno, yikes
The grand organ of Cathedral de Notre dame is so beautiful. It’s a shame to think all the pipe work is in boxes. I cannot wait for the building to be rebuilt and the organ to be restored into it’s rightful place in the lush, beautiful acoustic of the Cathedral de Notre dame and I hope to be there in person to listen to the wonderful music that the organ is capable of producing

A Passacaglia de Bach mostra os níveis divinos que ele atingiu, na contrapontística, fugas e músicas bem temperadas, usava sequências de afinação com base no Cálculo (sequencias de Fibonacci), sem dúvidas sempre será o maior Virtuoso. A imponência desta música é demonstrada no seu baixo-ostinato, que até hoje é usado em músicas apreciadas por todos. Sem dúvidas ele foi e sempre será a raiz da música.
I understand that Marie-Claire Alain was never the organist at Notre Dame, but she’s one of the supreme interpreters of Bach’s organ works. She humbled every organist in the world by recording the complete organ works a staggering 3 TIMES, each time on newly available organs which became available. Sublime!!
@@155Metalhead personally, I prefer Richter's DG, particularly speaking when it comes to the Passacaglia's ending and the Fugue. That Bombarde is... too much. Latry is a Master organist, Notre-Dame's Grand Organ is a masterpiece and this is indeed a great interpretation, but his style fits more properly to the French Romantic repertoire IMHO.
There are no words that can describe this instrument, It defies comparison to any other on earth To have heard Master Pierre and now another great artist who need not bow to any other living artist playing upon this transcendental masterpiece of an instrument that to me captures the fury, and the glorious creation. This organ has the light and power of creation itself. In 1979 I spent 8 hours with Virgil Fox and a few others witnessing him play from memory every composition by Vierne from 4PM to 1:30AM. I can not describe here what happened but I do in my book soon to be released. Thank you Master Latry. David Snyder, Lumierist, Creator of Virgil Fox Heavy Organ Touring Production.

Very interesting thought about Bach. You mentioned "sounding" like Bach". Actually Bach sounds like nothing ! Think about it for a moment. Bach composed music represented by "notes" that he placed for us onto a score. That in its purest form only,, IS Bach,,a silent, lifeless printed page waiting to be brought to life by a musician. Every musician who takes those silent notes and reads and then plays those notes brings Bachs' music to life just as the sun brings a dull dead stained glass window to glorious life .If you want pure Bach, buy a sheet of his music and sit and read it in silence. If you want Bach's glorious music take that sheet of notes and go to the instrument and put your soul into expressing his written notes,, or listen to a great artist who takes those notes and brings them to life. Give his works the best of your creative spirit by you interpreting his printed notes that are true gifts to us from our and his creator. Try it. David Snyder, Lumierist
@@ateslabattery115 Thank you for your reply. In another video of my country, this song (BWV582) is said to be the best of Bach's organ songs. I want to go, but I'm sorry I can't.
And no mere fire could destroy this organ! It's alive! Well, it will be. Since the church is being rebuilt, the organ was dismantled and will be updated and refurbished elsewhere, then reinstalled when the church repairs are complete.
Que poderosa composición para órgano, sencillamente inquietante, obscura, llena de misterio, el tema fugado parece que narrara el desenlace de una tragedia, triste, inevitable, fatal y la interpretación es sencillamente perfecta, Sr. Latry mis sinceras felicitaciones. Johann Sebastian Bach para mí es el más sublime de todos los compositores, Soli deo gloria!
There are musicologists, the late Stokowski among them, who have stated that this Passacaglia is the greatest piece of organ music ever written and arguably the single greatest piece of music written . . . period. (Difficult to say when listening to a Beethoven symphony!) Listen to Piet Kee's version at St Bavo, Haarlem for valid comparison.
Awesome Channel and Video, I absolutely love Latry's crescendo towards the end of the Passacaglia He really knows how to incorporate them in the music He plays and it really adds great effect.
Avez-vous remarqué ? à 10:29 le thème de la fugue est repris au pédalier. A ce niveau Olivier Latry s'est permis une liberté afin de mieux le faire ressortir ; ce n'est pas sur la partition originale.
Evidemment Monsieur Latry est un grand organiste... Mais je préfère l'interprétation merveilleuse de Vincent Dubois, plus profonde, au tempo un peu plus lent apportant tout ce qu'il y a de majestueux à cette oeuvre. Le regretté titulaire qu'on voit au début, Pierre Cochereau avait lui aussi compris cette nécessaire majesté.

That would be my only musical requirement. I also hope to have the opportunity to hear this performed in the Notre Dame while being there.

Glad I’m not the only one who wants this played at my funeral
Excellent idea, i would actually wish that as well.
Wow! Same here
I changed my mind. I will have Oasis' "Whatever" played in there.

Les mots me manquent pour dire ce que je ressens... 😍😢 Cela vaut mieux que de m'égarer dans un long commentaire...☺️
Alors contentez vous d''écouter Pierre Cochereau, le vrai, le grand.
RIEN NE POURRA EGALER PIERRE COCHEREAU:observez ses mains,le CIEL l'a vraiment gâté pour le bonheur du plus grand nombre!!!
Professor Latry is an amazing musician!
Speechless, a new favourite of an old favourite
Maravilhoso!
goosebumps!!!!!!
After Notre Dame is reopened, I pray this is the first song played as people enter.
No. Franck’s “Piece Heroique”
How about the Tocatta from Widor’s Symphony #5?
How about Messiaen's "Apparition de l'Église Éternelle"? That would work perfectly as a prelude or "Introit".
We would like to see Cochereau’s full footage of this Passacaglia.
Браво
Awesome Channel and Video, I absolutely love Latry's crescendo towards the end of the Passacaglia He really knows how to incorporate them in the music He plays and it really adds great effect.
Absolutely wonderful except for the f…..g advert cutting in halfway through the fugue!!!F…. off!!!!
Wow romantic interpretation! Fantastic.
Gorgeus!
a little bit too much
Avez-vous remarqué ? à 10:29 le thème de la fugue est repris au pédalier. A ce niveau Olivier Latry s'est permis une liberté afin de mieux le faire ressortir ; ce n'est pas sur la partition originale.
Pierre Cochereau le faisait aussi.Je ne suis pas surpris, beaucoup d'organistes le font.
Incredible...
Beautiful.
Awesome stuff
Evidemment Monsieur Latry est un grand organiste... Mais je préfère l'interprétation merveilleuse de Vincent Dubois, plus profonde, au tempo un peu plus lent apportant tout ce qu'il y a de majestueux à cette oeuvre. Le regretté titulaire qu'on voit au début, Pierre Cochereau avait lui aussi compris cette nécessaire majesté.
@@franckranaivo666 Pas d’accord sur votre « vilain » commentaire sur V.Dubois mais vous avez bien le droit d’avoir un avis … Alors peut-être serait-il prudent de parler de VOS 👂sans généraliser ?
Это прекрасно 🎉
S'il vous plaît, en quelle année cela a-t-il été réalisé ?
So sweat sound, and perfect performance.
Why does this organ sounds so much more versatile than others?
magnificent
bravo maestro!💙💙💛💛
