    that organ..that sound...must be a dream for any organist....

    M. Latry is a genius, you have to listen to the opening of the mass to realize that this entire piece is him improvising on the theme of the day's mass. I think we will discuss him in music courses a hundred years from now.

    One of my goals in life is to go to Paris and hear this magnificent instrument and organist live.

    I was blessed to hear his performance once in Westminster Cathedral, got his signature on the back of my YouCat - Catechism for the Youth.

    12yrs on and still one of his best improvisations. 7:40 onwards is superb!!

    When an organist plays such heavenly "spontaneous" music such as this, it confirms in my mind that there is an awesome God who gives the gift of music! I am simply amazed at the great display of musicianship that has been displayed here. Keep playing the magical organ - THE KING OF INSTRUMENTS. Wayne from Australia.

    One of his best improvs. He is a master of goose-bump-raising modulations. And great structure on this one.

    Mother of God!!! This is stunning on my computer. What must be the effect in person!!!!

  • @BostonBum15
    @BostonBum15 6 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    The way he finally incorporates the theme of that day’s chant, Dieu Regne, at 9:12, and especially at 9:31, which he has been building to for the entire improvisation, is awe inspiring. I don’t think I have ever heard an improvisation with better structure

    I heard Latry play in Erfurt, Germany, when I was on vacation there. I also met him. A wonderfully gifted and very humble performer.

    I was truly delighted to meet and hear Mr. Latry last night in Plano, Texas at
    Christ United Methodist Church. I came away on a "spiritual high!" The Dedication Concert of the church's Reuter Pipe Organ Opus 2235 was truly a memorable experience.

    I am an organist, of too many years. Enough of them to be able to say: this is astonishing, I've not heard anything in performance that would challenge this brilliant improvisational skill. A great many improvisations have a rhapsodic form, something of a crazy quilt of ideas pasted together. This extraordinary example is of whole cloth. The man is, in a word, brilliant. Gloriously colorful and exciting work. On ONE manual! [thanks to electronics but who's counting]. Bravissimo!

    I went to mass in Notre Dame de Paris the last month and, even though I don't speak much french and couldn't understand much, the music the organist played was so beautiful and made it such a great experience. I would recommend to every Catholic who is planning on visiting this cathedral to have mass here

    Latry is great, but also the instrument is incredible.
    Notice the combination management possibilities that it has.
    Superb player, superb instrument. If the voice of God can be in some way imagined, the sound of this organ can fit perfectly in a believer's imagination.

    Like Millions of people around the World - the Fire at Notre Dame was so difficult to watch on TV. I am so glad that reports are coming out that the Organ was not destroyed. May GOD be with the Parisians as they re-build the Cathedral.
