Twice I was at the console of this great instrument. Once whit Daniel Roth, the other time with Sophie-Vernonique Cauchefer-Choplin. You can walk on the stairs of Widor and Dupre! Its amazing!
Excellent description. It feels like it's a living, breathing organism. Even a solo stop can be heard as if it was right next to your ear. It is an overwhelming experience, especially when full organ is on - big 32' contra bombardes, chamades, etc - like in this improvisation.
try grand orgue in St. Ouen, Rouen :) also Cavaillé-Coll, 4 manuals only, it's slightly smaller organ, but its 32' contre-bombardes are worth hearing as well :)
Karl Rovey - it has, at least Trompette Harmonique should be, if french wiki is correct. Of course, Notre-Dame and others have more of them, and they're quite visible as well
geuros En Chamade refers to horizontal reeds. It doesn't include a hooded trumpet (which is available on the San Sulpice organ). Also, none of the En Chamade ranks at Notre Dame were installed by Cavaille Coll. They were installed well after his death. If I remember correctly, Cavaille Coll only included an en chamade on one or two organs.
Wow. What a great improvisation. Wish I was there with my audio recorder to capture this in high quality. You really should upload the full improvisation.
love that symphonic growl of that organ!
He is, quite simply, a stunning improviser
What a great Piece, thank You for this Posting-
Mr.Roth is a Force.

I've heard it twice in my life. Overwhelming both times. You can literally feel it breathe.

Ronald Robinson San Sulpice doesn't have any en chamade stops.

Love the pedal tones around 2:33
