After having been watching hundreds of videos about this organ, I must say that this one is the first that clearly shows that the "registres de combinaison / appels généraux" pop in automatically after having been drawn. Shame on me, but I didn't know that! Although it makes sense, of course. Thanks for uploading this video!
Suggestion from an organist - sit at the console and rebuild this phrase by phrase......wonderful training for our development of our musicality - no, I'm serious. Utter delight from this awesome improviser and musician of the first order eh? Go play! @@toccataforte
Superbement orchestré interprète incroyable très inspirée par Marcel Dupré et Louis Vierne dans ce final symphonique. ( Cortège et litanies ? ) Bravo 🙏👏👏👏
Vous avez tout a fait raison dans vos intuitions ! Je me suis fait la même remarque ! Le début, par exemple, est très clairement inspiré du début du final de la 1ère symphonie de Louis Vierne. Même clé (ré majeur), même motifs exactement... Vous avez eu donc de très bonnes intuitions. Cela n'est pas étonnant de trouver certaines marques apparentes de Vierne et Dupré (organiste de St Sulpice au 20eme siecle !), car elle a travaillé l'improvisation au CNSMDP, donc à l'École française d'improvisation, ce qui explique aussi des similitudes dans les shémas d'improvisation...
It takes a bit to get used to the "noise" at first, but then it just blends into the experience. Ever stand beside an organist playing a well-worn, vintage Aeolian-Skinner console? Absolutely gorgeous organ sound, "accompanied" by much clatter, chatter, and clicks...not to mention the "ka-chunk" of a vintage pneumatic combination action. Not audible to the audience, but lots of noises at the console. All part of experiencing a glorious instrument up close and personal.
What a MASTER! I think she is highlyy underrated.
Toujours un vrai plaisir de vous écouter Mme Cauchefer Choplin. Merci beaucoup
It seems clear that Madame Cauchefer-Choplin shares the same generosity of spirit as her legendary colleague Daniel Roth.

It depends on the keyboard combination ... if I remember correctly the pedal must be pushed manually
Wow she just gets better and better ! She is sensational!
This organist NEEDS to record albums. Seriously.
She has recorded several.
inspiration superbe et riche, merci
How does she do what she does.? Amazing every time I hear her
Sophie is in my book the absolute finest woman organist in the world.
Fantastic!
Awesome thanks for posting
I wonder what would be Frank Tedesco’s take on this.
Wow. Pity is the mono like sound. Full stereo deepends the warmth of the organ sound.
I need the sheet music to this improvisation.
It's an improvisation! There's no 'sheet music'!
I know. I play too. But this sounds so good that I’d love to play it myself u know?

Il n'y a strictement rien de Dupré et encore moins de Vierne dans cette improvisation, en style très répétitif.

😍😍😍
Jeez I thought she was gone. She just got a haircut.
Fantastic. Pity it is monosound.....
This organ has magnificent sound. But, the noisy keys are very distracting!!
It's the Barker levers that make that noise
