A shout out to the engineers that recorded this. OMG they did an INCREDIBLE job. Large romantic organs like this are a nightmare to record. The huge amplitude swings. Blower and other mech sounds. Divisions spread out all over the place. Amazing job.
How nice to see an organist who had the notes in his head and playes the music on the organ. Note that he does his own registration. Very dexterous. Excellent performance of this piece. It is colossal.
One of the greatest works ever written for the organ and I think this is probably my favourite performance of it. Not least as it is played on the magnificent 1888 Cavaillé-Coll - one of the master's greatest instruments and one of the best organs in the world.
Indeed. Other composers that were organists and wrote way more works for Organ struggled to write a single piece as great as this. And Liszt just casually drops the "Ad Nos Fantasia" and this as his first original organ compositions as if it is nothing.

Mr Dupont workin' this mammoth machine all by himself, melting your face off with this extraordinary piece on this behemoth Cavaillé-Coll! What's not to love!? 👍
Not my favourite organ composition, but your performance has left me speachless and changed my mind, it was like listeing to something magiical. Not the Liszt that I’’ve been used to but a composer and virtiouso that respected Bach in his own private way and wrote music to respect him, honour him and recognise is brilliant tallent. Bravo to FRANZ LISZT.
Wow! This recording makes me wish I still had my old McIntosh amp and Klipsch speakers - and no neighbors. I love the performance and the sound of this organ. Hats off to Mr. DuPont!
Franz Liszt did not make his organ music any easier than his hardest piano works, that's for sure. This piece is 12 minutes of... I can't put it into words! Incredible performance too!
Je suis tout à fait d'accord avec vous. Malgré tout, il faut, aussi, absolument écouter ce Prélude et Fugue de Liszt interprété par Jean Guillou en 1977 à Notre-Dame. La version syncrétique qu'il nous offre est tout à fait remarquable. Jean Guillou était un mutant de l'orgue !

On ne fera jamais rien de mieux qu'un accord parfait pleins jeux à l'orgue romantique. Bravo, je ne connaissais pas cette pièce, interprétation magique !
It's incredible to be in such a harmony with both piece and instrument... It's not only about playing, it's more about understanding and piloting the instrument. Really perfect job.
It's something just watching him register the organ... playing the piece from memory and getting the voices right on an instrument that uses pistons that work completely the opposite way from modern American and British organs.
On AGO standard organs, including theater organs, pistons turn things on, they turn on preset registrations. On the French Romantic organs, they turn things OFF in preset groups. The stops have to be out (registered) for them to work.
I´m organist. And I can´t say that it looks easy! Follow the fingers and the feet which have two tasks: Playing, making the dynamics and the connectings for manuals and pedals. I have already tried to rehearse the work several times and have always stopped (the same with Regers "BACH". I´m medical doctor and am frustrated to realize that my abilities have reached their limits. Unfortunately!
AMAZING !!! Wonderful interpretation !!! no assistant, and moreover no help from any electronic devices bringing twice this performance. I'm speechless... Congratulations
Un magnífico monumento musical a un gran compositor hecho por otro gran compositor, interpretado en un órgano de un gran maestro y mantenido en sonido por otros grandes maestros, ejecutada por un virtuoso intérprete... No podemos pedir más. ¡Bravo Maestro, y muchas gracias por hacer oír esta maravilla al mundo!
You can hear this wonderful work in may ways. You may consider that the B-A-C-H cell is most of time used as a typically romantic "object" calling for diminished sevenths chromatic progression (which Liszt enjoyed so much). But you may also consider that the handling of that cell sometimes work in a much modern way, as a ' 4 tones mini-series'', which is also true. Rememeber that in 1939 Anton Webern wrote his 'string quartet' op. 28, which uses a series made up of the aggregation of three aspects of that cell, which makes this BACH cell someimes quite obvious, sometimes blurred by other serial derivatives.

OMG you make it look effortless & so easy, but I know better, that piece is a real job ! And what a sound ! Wonderful ! Thank you so much for sharing with us ! You should come to work your magic on the Dupont organ at Longwood Gardens in Pa. USA
magnifique très belle interprétation, sans partitions ni assistants, j'aimerais en faire autant, mais ça sera dans une autre vie, car faut beaucoup de travail, merci Jean Baptiste !

Quelles belles orgues que celles de la basilique St Sernin de Toulouse réalisée par le maître de la facture d' Orgue Française; ARISTIDE CAVAILLE COLL. Riche en timbre,il mérite une réstitution stéréophonique, et de grand qualité numérique, avec la belle acoustique de la basilique.
I believe most pipe organs have a wide dynamic range, in fact much more than a piano. The dynamics are not controlled by the keys, buy but but using stops and swell pedals. I think that around 6:40, during the quiet section, you can see him varying the dynamics subtly via a swell pedal. In other places you can see him changing it by manipulating stops (look at around 6:44).
Magnifique et impressionnante interprétation de cette oeuvre majeure pour orgue de Franz Liszt. Jean-Baptiste Dupont, pour ainsi dire, la construit comme on fait d'un monument, à la mesure de son jeu, d'une rigueur absolue. N'est-ce pas là LA version idéale, que trop peu d'organistes sont vraiment capables de restituer ? Et avouons que jouer sans partition donne une proximité immédiate (au sens littéral du terme) avec la musique...

Wonderful execution and sound. You give a tribute to Liszt and Bach!
One of my very favorite Liszt pieces very well played. I also appreciate the homage Liszt paid to the great Joh. Seb. Bach by writing the piece.
It looks soooooo easy, but...........This organist must have multiple brains to play this monstrously complex work.

Imagine a piece like that with no presets or knob jockies. And on an organ that can change timbre within the tine it takes to play the piece.

I think that around 6:40, during the quiet section, you can see him varying the dynamics subtly via a swell pedal.

Sorry I made a typo. It is around 5:40 where you can see him using a swell pedal.
