Tears in my eyes.. Such a genius, on his organ which is really a pure masterpiece. Listen how it renders the so subtle tone of the Célesta and at the same time the roar of rest of the orchestra... Requiescat in pace Maître.
They're not bells, they're flutes magistrally blended to render the sound of the celesta (sort of piano that used tuned crystal bits instead of strings to make music, though sometimes he sustained too much and spoiled the effect) ;-D
What do you think ? Ha, ha ! Grandes Orgues is the KING of all INSTRUMENTS ! It represents a total orchestra, even though it does not raise in decibels like an orchestra !
Thank you for posting Jean Guillou playing “ Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy”. What a genius! Now, here in Canada, we haveour own brilliant oraganist, Xaver Varnus who learned from Paul Gillou.
I was thinking that, I honestly find it weird. Shouldn't we stick to naming his name which is on his birth certificate? Or at least documents? Like I've seen Tchaikovsky spell it Tchaikowsky aswell I believe. And for his first name my god. Like surely it would only be Pyotr? Not an english name like peter or something like pierre? It really annoys me for some reason lol
@@TheOpus480 the problem is that his actual name should be written in cyrillic to be correct... but yes, we should have an agreement on how to write it in our alphabet
@@zoebidule3397 I'm not sure if the name Pyotr is very common in those areas of the world, I only really know of Western European spellings unfortunately. As I dont think Tchaikovsky's music would of ever really been that popular in those areas and cultures were music was composed differently to the western way in which classical music is written. I'm not sure really? Do you know? If your so intrigued by it?
Non , basson 16 seul. Au Positif , 1er clavier : Cromorne . Au g.o. , une montre 8 avec qqchose d'autre . Au récit : la cymbale + une flûte ( ou doublette) 2 . Registration très bien trouvé. J'ai été fasciné même si je ne suis pas un grand fan des transcriptions. Je n'en connais pas beaucoup qui me satisfassent .
@@Nicolas-zb9uw Incapable moi-même de dire de quel jeu il use, mais je trouve en tout cas et juste avec mon oreille, que les basses aux pieds sont TRES, très graves et c'est très "chouette" !
Vous parlez des basses aux pieds ? Je les trouve très graves. (Et dire que je suis passée des milliers de fois devant St-Eustache et que je n'y suis jamais entrée ! Quel grand dommage !!!)
@@StoreeDenson I'm very aware of who JG is (was) but the arrangement seems to lack the finesse and lightness of the original orchestral piece. I rate JG as a great musician and I enjoy many of his recordings which I believe make a fine legacy for the man but I don't like this one. I'm very glad you do though.
@@tonycross5801 I hear he made his own interpretation, but a very good one. Perhaps without this characteristic lightness, nevertheless I enjoy his playing of the piece endless
I love the impish expression on his face after he plays the last chord!
Rest in peace, my world-class organ Master. I miss you 😥
may you Rest in Peace.
RIP Jean Guillou, amazing organist and lovely friend
respect for guillou 87 years old is a great organist
What an amazing organist! 😊
That organ has got some serious bass,bravo.
RIP Maestro Guillou. This is a fine arrangement. Thank you for posting.
Yes, quite right. He was old and I find this all the same excellent.
What, yet another creative way to spell Tchaikovsky.
I wish someone would play like this in my church…
RIP Monsieur Guillou
Ein toller Organist!😊

Plein d’humour, le petit coup d’œil à la fin 😉😉😉
His music is his legacy. What an awesome piece of music and performance 👏👏👏!
Great Scott!
My all time favourite iteration of this incredible classic.
Que maravilha!🙏🏻❤️💐👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷🖖🏻
Le son de ces clochettes à la main droite est fabuleux, EXQUISITE !

Jean Guillou is a true master
Bravoo!! RIP Maestro Guillou.
Bravo!!!!
Amazing registration and an amazing organ.
Caikovskij on an organ! Never heard that before!
What do you think ? Ha, ha ! Grandes Orgues is the KING of all INSTRUMENTS ! It represents a total orchestra, even though it does not raise in decibels like an orchestra !
This is awesome! I love it.
Wonderful. This must have been what audiences in British town halls were treated to in the 19th century!
I don't think it was that much quality. Guillou is way over.
Brilliant delivery! :-)
Did he really use the 32' feet bombarde to play the bass?! 😂
Splendida trascrizione ! ! !
Cette mélodie très connue est joué sur des tas d'instruments différents, mais Je ne l'avais jamais entendu à l'orgue, .C'est beau !

How many ways are there to spell Tchaikovsky?

AH ? And what if it was spelt in a foreign language ? Like from a land of Eastern Europe, for example ? Non ?
But, non : you could not think of that ?
@@zoebidule3397 I'm not sure if the name Pyotr is very common in those areas of the world, I only really know of Western European spellings unfortunately.

Very nicely played. Death is always an incredible loss of skill and knowledge and of course the person itself. We got to bear it unfortunately.
Bombarde de 32 ?
Contrebasson 32'

Ñaaaaa el viejito like v:
I guess play this song on piano no of organ
Horrible. Has he even heard the original?
Yes! He would never made the arrangement if he never heard the original.
@@StoreeDenson wow how is it so awful then. It sounds like he made it from the sheet music with a blindfold on. 🤣
@@tonycross5801 I guess you don't know who Jean Gilliou is. Also you can make an arrangement of this piece if you want to insult him.
