Merveilleuse transcription de cette œuvre très bien adaptée aux grandes orgues Van den Heuvel de Saint-Eustache ! Bravo à ce talentueux jeune organiste co-titulaire ! Jean Guillou, parmi toutes ses transcriptions, ne nous avait jamais fait entendre pareil chef-d'œuvre ...
We visited Paris a couple weeks ago and attended mass on New Years day. Thomas played a bit afterwards. We really appreciated the service, the beautiful church, and the organ playing. Thank you for a great experience.
Bravo Thomas, c'est absolument sublime ! Tout y est, la musique, bien sûr, avec toute la sensibilité et le raffinement caractéristique de Ravel, mais aussi l'interprétation, la prise de son et les images...
Un immense bravo à toi mon cher Thomas! Tu connais mon goût pour ce genre de démarches donc je ne vais pas en rajouter… Mais je voudrais souligner ici ton magnifique travail d'orchestration et avec des registrations aussi subtiles qui valorisent encore plus l'orgue de St Eustache on serait presque tenté de comparer ça à de la très haute gastronomie! Hier j'aurais dû participer à l'inauguration d'un grand orgue restauré par Quentin Blumenroeder : les circonstances nous en ont tous empêché… Du coup ce magnifique Ravel m'a donné un baume et une belle consolation! MERCI !
De toute beauté. Magnifique transcription qui s'imposera dans le répertoire pour orgue. L'orgue de Saint-Eustache magnifie aussi ces pages du génial compositeur.
The highest praise to Thomas for this supreme rendition. The manifold possibilities of this organ are used in a splendid way. Such a lot of work it must be to prepare all these different registrations! The result is a masterly performance of extraordinary beauty. Highest compliments!
You all probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot my account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Tanner Jagger Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Bravo, bravo! Quelle belle transcription tout à fait dans le style! Magnifique instrument, montage vidéo respectant la musique . Et bien sûr interprétation sans faille, musicale, harmonieuse, tout y est. Bravo, tu nous régale!
Wow, I'm speechless! You would need a really good orchestra with an outstanding woodwind section to compete with this combination of organist & organ! A big thank you, Thomas!
Wow, wow, wow! Amazing registration and timbers. What a previlege to be able to play on that awesome organ! I think I'm gonna be a huge fan of yours. Merci pour votre belle interprétation^^
I can’t decide which I like more…listening to you play or watching you play! The passion is everywhere when you are on the bench. There’s a young organist at my church in Arizona who plays with the same passion. I wish I could send him to you for some master classes! He’s really good but you’d make him great!
ooo Merci THOMAS de traduire ce raffinement . Vous êtes un parfait manipulateur de Ravel qui doit se réjouir et s'honorer de votre traduction parfaite ! Courtoisement ...Michel OOOO
I could listen to you play for hours, and I do thanks to these videos. I enjoyed listening to your predecessor Jean Guillou as well, though I didn't always agree with his interpretations ;
I remember while I was on holiday in Paris last year that I visited the organs of St Eustache and St Sulpice, played at the time by Baptiste-Florian and (I think) Daniel Roth respectively. I stayed for the music before and after the St Sulpice mass, and attended Baptiste-Florian's concert in the evening. It was the first time I had heard either organ with my own ears and they sounded even better than I could've imagined.
Congratulations for the impressive and precice performance. You manage very well to transfer the orchestra atmosphere and timing on the beautiful organ instrument. I love organist who have a true pulse.
Merci and highest praise, dear Thomas! This is quite well done! I have made a transcription for the second movement myself, but yours far exceeds mine!
I fell in love with Ravel seven, perhaps eight, months ago, when I discovered "Pavane pour une infante defunte." Since then, Ravel has weaved his way into my life, my heart, my mind, in inexorable ways. He's become a permanent resident of my skull. It's rather strange how an accident, even a small one like stumbling on a piece in an antiquated style, can change one's outlook, one's future. Ravel and his older contemporary, Debussy, have utterly convinced me that writing music is my calling. I want to be that person, the one who somehow activates long-forgotten memories and the strongest emotions through what seems to be the most simplistic acoustic means. Some say Ravel's work is devoid of emotion. I say, "You haven't looked long enough. Once you have, your heart will melt." This suite deserves a place as one of the most beautiful, evocative, strange, emotional sequences of noises ever to exist. The organ, via its organist, truly does it more than justice. Thank you, Mr. Ospital. We don't deserve this.
Amazing! The organ of Saint Eustache has very nice colors and solo stops. Very interesting to hear Ravel on that organ. It definetely creates the magic atmosphare like the orchestra version!
Hendrik Schall the problem of this transcription is that it has been thought for that organ. As you say there are some fabulous colours on it witch are quite complicated to find in other place
J’ai eus le plaisir de vous écoutez jouer ces mêmes morceaux à la Cathédrale de Lausanne ce jour même ! Je n’ai pas eus l’occasion de vous remercier pour ce très beau moment que vous nous avez offert donc je le fais ici. Vous m’avez redonné l’envie d’apprendre cet instrument. Merci et bonne continuation ! ;)
Magnifique transcription bravo Thomas ! La musique de Ravel est tellement belle à l'orgue, je pense qu'une transcription de "Gaspard de la Nuit" pour orgue pourrait être vraiment intéressante....
This works extremely well...! MUCH better then Mahler Symphonies or The Liszt piano sonata... goodness...! AND the playing is SOO beautiful... just wonderful!
This is very nice, much better appropriate than that group maddive, of course that was a roman catholic church and they invented their own version of their gospel.
@Thomas Opital, we would like to play your transcription for our weeding (IV. Les entretiens + V. Le jardin féerique), where can we find the partitions please so as to give them to our organist please? Thank you so much ++ :)
Dear Thomas; Thank you so much for these transcriptions. Although I've played a transcription of Ravel's "Pavane" for years on the organ. I always think I'm missing something in the works of both Ravel and Satie (not Debussey) by not understanding the subtle nature hidden within the French language itself. Might this be true?
Très belle transcription de cette oeuvre de Ravel, elle suit celle de Debussy et Fauré toutes aussi réussies il y a quelque temps et magnifiquement jouées. Je suis impressionné également par votre mémoire. Pourriez vous citer les hommes de la prise de son?, peut être la fine équipe de 16 8 4 ,
This is pure magic! You write this amazing transcription, conferring an entire orchestra onto an organ, THEN play it all from memory? That requires super-human capabilities! Thank you for all the work, the performance, excellent video and sound! (from Canada) see the orchestral version here: ua-cam.com/video/b4tMATIRHH0/v-deo.html for comparison
Cher Monsieur. Cela a définitivement plus de goût. À savoir votre adaptation pour orgue de la version-suite de ballet par Ravel même de Ma Mère l'Oye (y compris les interludes de liaison). Bon courage!
Une pure merveille... Si subtile et élégant, qu'on en a les larmes aux yeux.
Absolutely gorgeous..... it is a beauty beyond words.......
My favourite Organist. A true professional. So much passion. Thanks Thomas!
Si vous saviez,Thomas le bien que vous nous faites!.merci.sublime interprétation.,
Wow.. You really know how to create a cosmic experience.. Thank You!!
Just two words: WOW, Amazing!
Merveilleuse transcription de cette œuvre très bien adaptée aux grandes orgues Van den Heuvel de Saint-Eustache ! Bravo à ce talentueux jeune organiste co-titulaire ! Jean Guillou, parmi toutes ses transcriptions, ne nous avait jamais fait entendre pareil chef-d'œuvre ...
I absoloutely love your interpretation of this wonderful piece! Thank you so much for playing!
He didn't compose it, you see?
I have listened to this three times already and I can't stop listening. Bravo!
I know. It's really pretty isn't it
We visited Paris a couple weeks ago and attended mass on New Years day. Thomas played a bit afterwards. We really appreciated the service, the beautiful church, and the organ playing. Thank you for a great experience.
Sublime. Le puissant mystère est rendu avec talent et subtilité.
A wonderful set of transcriptions, beautifully played on a truly great instrument. Thank you
Tres beau por le Ravel la nuit dernière, le Jardin fèerique ce moi fait pleuer. (A Trinite' Catredal/Cleveland).
Superb playing as always!
Les personnages, l'esprit de Ravel sont là bravo!
Maravilhoso!!! Parabéns e Muito Obrigado.

Absolutely superb transcription - and performance - of this beautiful work. Thank you
Splendide ! et très coloré.
Wow, I'm speechless!
You would need a really good orchestra with an outstanding woodwind section to compete with this combination of organist & organ!
A big thank you, Thomas!
This is so beautiful! I wish you would come to Seattle and play at our Flentrop and Wurlitzers.
Really ?? Are you kidding ? He's due to come to Houston TX soon. Not an obscure north west poor dunk
Mon Dieu que c'est beau ! Bravo Thomas !!
Merci Jorris !!
Wow, wow, wow! Amazing registration and timbers. What a previlege to be able to play on that awesome organ! I think I'm gonna be a huge fan of yours.
Merci pour votre belle interprétation^^
Somptueux. Merci Thomas Ospital.
Merci Thomas!
ENFIN !!! A garder précieusement !
This is such a good transcription, it might as well be the authoritative one.
Perfect! Amazing transcription!

I have always regretted that Ravel never composed for the organ, but this splendid transcription does fill the void in a miraclous way. I love it!
Wow! Just, plain, Wow.

Superb in every way, as always. So good to hear your creative registrations on this incredible instrument. Thank you :)
Congratulations for the impressive and precice performance. You manage very well to transfer the orchestra atmosphere and timing on the beautiful organ instrument. I love organist who have a true pulse.
Cela me rappelle mes premières années au conservatoire de Bayonne justement !
C’est donc un excellent souvenir !
Merci !
Un natif de Ciboure transcris par un jeune Basque ! la même émotion qu'un orchestre ! BRAVO !
Bravo, magnifique transcription
formidable Thomas
tout simplement PRODIGIEUX
Merci and highest praise, dear Thomas! This is quite well done! I have made a transcription for the second movement myself, but yours far exceeds mine!
Marvelous! I've not often seen glissando's being used in a way that's actually tasteful like here! Bravo!

Great transcription and interpretation, thank you
Très belle version. Et votre registration (je crois que c'est comme ça que l'on dit) est de très bon goût. Merci, bonne continuation.

Définitif !!!
Wonderful played! Congrats!
Bravo! Just as nice as in Altenberg last summer 😊
Bravo!
❤❤❤
Que c’est beau!... Ravel doit être ravi lui aussi!

La France peut être fière de ses Basques, merci à Thomas et maître Jean pour sa cathédrale sonore 😃
One word is enough....WOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!
This works extremely well...! MUCH better then Mahler Symphonies or The Liszt piano sonata... goodness...! AND the playing is SOO beautiful... just wonderful!
Très belle interprétation... Je me demande si l'on peut accéder à la partition quelque part... Bravo !

Nous avons été déçus de vous avoir manqué lors de votre performance sur le Fisk Op. 100 à Dallas (le 29 mars) a été annulé.
Eduard Qualls j’étais vraiment déçu de ne pouvoir venir... je me faisais une joie de découvrir cet orgue.
La versión oranistica del metro. Thomas equivale a una instrumentación del mismo Ravel

Merci pour votre message, pour être honnête j’ai tout fait tout seul. Période de confinement oblige.
