Widor Toccata.. but with a 32' Bombarde this time!

  • You might remember the first video featuring the famous Widor Toccata in Italy.. well.. we've been on another concert trip and I was kindly asked to give it another try - so let's see how the Toccata works this time!
    This is the English organ in Gackenbach, Germany which is an absolutely fantastic instrument! I was just preparing for a concert that day and was hearing the organ for the first time as well.. as you might be able to tell, I'm pretty impressed! The reeds and Bombarde 32' in the Pedal as well as the Mixture sound absolutely fantastic! There will be many more (higher quality) recordings of this organ. I can't wait to hear what you think! Oh.. and of course the acoustics of the church are fantastic. Wow!
    I hope you'll enjoy this video of the organ as well as the traveling-shots. Please let me know if you like this video style and I can show you more "behind the scenes" and traveling footage. It is so much fun to film, so I'd be happy to share more.

      @@kiewskywhich video are you referring to?
      The one I have is from St.Surplice in Paris and played at a substantially slower tempo observing the Semiquavers being correctly played staccato.
      The acoustics in St.Surplice are very keen and had Widor played the piece any faster the clarity of the notes would have resulted in one blur, as has been proved on various cases in recitals and recordings.
      The video recording I have, despite the age of it, is as clear as a bell and every Semiquaver can be heard even during the “Cross hands” section towards the end.
      I have the sneaking suspicion that some less professional Organists take a degree of advantage of keen acoustics and maintain a rapid tempo, hoping that any errors or miss-hits will not be detected by an audience.
      My Organ teacher drilled into me that unless a piece can be performed 99.9% note perfect, it should not be performed in public until 100% accuracy has been achieved by good old practice.
      He also maintained that the Widor Toccata was the most common piece used and abused by novice organists to bluff their way through.

    A quote from Widor, from Vierne's autobiography:
    "Grandeur is the organ’s essential characteristic. ‘This is because, of all musical instruments, the organ alone can sustain sound indefinitely and with the same intensity. The organ can be picturesque only rarely and, even then, care must be taken not to expect it to imitate orchestral and pianistic effects. That would be an inartistic parody. Although Bach has left some miraculously descriptive works, it must be noted that pieces in this style are in a very small minority compared with those in very slow or moderate tempos. Moreover, independent of all other considerations-basic and quite important-the very nature of the organ’s sound and the absence of a percussive attack are contrary to the concept of great velocity. The organ is almost always played too fast. Young people easily yield to the desire to dazzle the audience by this means. Beware! It is a false virtuosity appropriate to the circus-not the tribune.”

    Hallo, lieber Paul. Den Widor beherrscht du doch! Habe mich üeber mein Lieblings Orgelstück sehr gefreut. Danke für deine Musik. Genial die Bässe. Es ist ein Traum, dir zu zu hören. Zum Schluss ist noch ein kleiner Schnitzer drin. Widor ist eben was ganz Besonderes. Freue mich schon auf das nächste Mal. Liebe Grüße sende ich dir. Die Toccata Nr. 5 hört sich auf der Sonnenorgel genau so gut an. Davon kann man sich beim Orgelspiel zur Heiligen Nacht überzeugen. Ich liebe es! Vielleicht mal von dir gespielt??? PS: Virgil Fox war auch ein genialer Organist.

    Paul hi, very recent subscriber since your Italian Tour.
    From your playlist titles I can't figure out whether you have some teaching videos where you just talk more about different organs and how they're constructed.
    Full mechanical? Pneumatic? Hybrids and electric?
    I was wondering what the largest organ you've ever had the pleasure of playing? And with that how difficult is it to learn an organ with many more manuals and ranks than you're used to?
    So if there is a playlist with some of this information please direct me, otherwise please consider doing more educating in a video or two.
    Reading the history of pipe organs in Wikipedia starting three centuries before Christ is fascinating but I would much rather, hear and see it from somebody who plays these magnificent instruments and also enjoys the history's.
    Wiki noted that the Pipe Organ was the most complicated device ever created by man from the 17th century until the late 19th century when the telephone exchange was first created. That's incredible! And how anyone could learn to play all the different types would be interesting to me at least, and I think others.
