Nathan Laube plays Saint-Saëns - Fantaisie in D-flat, Op. 101 on the "Centennial Organ"
Nathan Laube performs Camille Saint-Saëns poetic "Fantaisie in D-flat," Op. 101 on the organ at St. Joseph's Catholic Cathedral in Buffalo, New York.
This performance was recorded by@MoblAudioProductions in March, 2021 for a digital organ concert sponsored by Västerås Cathedral and Kalmar Cathedral in Sweden.
The 1876 E. & G.G. Hook & Hastings organ, Opus 828, is a masterpiece of 19th-century American Organbuilding. Built originally as a showpiece instrument for the Centennial International Exhibition of 1876 - the first World's Fair to be held in the United States - "The Centennial Organ," as it has come to be known, represented the greatest tonal and technological achievements from the prominent Boston firm. It's remarkably efficient specification included two high-pressure Tuba Mirabilis and Stentorphone stops, a free-reed Vox Angelica, 8-and-4-foot reeds in the Great imported from Henri Zimmerman of Paris, and a small, but ingeniously 'extended' Pedal organ of massive scale. Following the Exhibition, it was installed in Buffalo in the newly built Cathedral by famed American ecclesiastic architect Patrick Keely. The organ was expanded in 2001 by the Andover Organ Company as their Opus R-328.
The current specification can be found here:

Nathan is an amazing artist!!
Holy moly. What brilliant musicianship. Thank you NL - that’s the highlight of my decades of listening to organ performances. Literally as good as it gets 👏👏
Sensational. The Fugue is out of this World Does anyone know IF its ever been performed at the beginning or end of any State Occasion ?
Could you please play this on the 33.000 pipes organ in Atlantic Hall?
Bravo!
He is a Master of his instrument!
The sound is like the heavens are opening and flood the earth with melody. Incredible organ, organist and composition.
Fantastic
What a magnificent organ..... the voicing is beyond incredible.... the strings are every organists dream to have on their home instruments (or church) .... reeds that growl.... just so much to digest.... and Nathan does his work at master level.....
Nathan dazzled Edmonton at the Winspear last night. An amazing performance!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The best performance, of this piece, I really must, hear this minimum ,One time peer week. Sorry for my English.
OMG! And played entirely from memory! Fabulous performance!
Fulfilled :) You are great, Sir !
Incredible!!!

❤🎉❤❤❤❤ In order to not fall in deep suicidal depression i will have to completely forget this when i come back to my practice and composing routine
Great organ!
I always love listening to Nathan play this piece! It’s so inspired!
Awesome
WOW!!!!! Greetings from Tucson, Arizona USofA
What a fantastic performance on this great orchestral organ ! I could believe my eyes... He played it without a score with very convincing registrations. Amazing !
Sensacional !!! Esse Orgão é dominado por um mágico do som !!
this comes off really well , but it takes nothing less than such a huge organ and a top notch virtuoso . The registration analysis and experimentation to achieve this sound must have been quite epic . I love Les Preludes , in the piano transcription and now the organ one. Thank you.
Made me cry so hard. Majestic beyond words. Thanks so much for making my week
Yes. I am having a similar reaction. This work brings back emotional memories, both sweet and sad at the same time.
This looks impossible. I would suggest that brain surgery is easier than what he is doing.
I agree. An organist has controll over both hands and feet at the same time and is pulling stops so registration and timing all at one time. He is playing from memory.Much respect
Nathan, you are miraculous... a one man orchestra. You did Liszt's masterpiece proud. Outrageously Brilliant.
Fantastic performance. World class.
amazing
I always enjoy the performance of Nathan. A great organist.
Fabulous talent and Fabulous instrument.
Magnifica esecuzione! Bravo Maestro Laube!
sensibel and whit compassion played really beautiful and enchanting
This fugue is perhaps the most sublime written for the organ since Bach. And you more than did it justice. Fabulous.
Perfect Piece for fighting back Putin
And for chasing JB back to his basement as well...
Sehr Guy fuer Pfeiffenorgel bearbeitet !
Superb!
wasn't it List on its most romantic?
@@k.j.zeedijk5349i would say so. Romantic masterpiece and one of the great pieces of all time, that i indeed forget for many years. This version shows how tight and well written the composition is. There is no bar that does sound fresh
Grandioso!!!!! El mismisimo cielo al lado de Dios!!!! Bravooo maestroo!!!!
Superb!
I found it enchanting to kornelius
What joy to listen to your playing, Nathan! Thank you!
Brilliant and masterful!
Nathan ,a genius, brings music to life, and such a gentleman the best of the best ,Thank-you Nathan
I am transfixed by Nathan's registration. Mesmerized. We have virtuosity, adaptation and transcription, and taste here. There isn't room for improvement.
Fantastic transcription and Amazing play
Perfect pianistic articulation with kaleidoscopic orchestral colors, imbued with the spirit of the composer transcending and yet encompassing the instrument all at once! Flawless!!
Amazing instrument and an incredibly talented organist. Really wish there were more recordings of this EG&G Hook and Hastings organ out there. It's a phenomenal example of nineteenth-century American organ building.
