ENREGISTREMENT DE LA SYMPHONIE N°3 CHEZ MUSICALES ACTES SUD
French organ building and composing at its absolute finest
Merci pour cet instant magique qui nous transporte .
I’ve listened to this so many times, and I never don’t get goosebumps hearing this. Magnificent.
I'm not sure if people are aware of just how difficult it is to time a pipe organ to an orchestra (or any other instrument) in the same building. Pipe organs are incredible, breathing instruments that take time to generate sound, and even more time for the sound to propagate throughout the building. I'm am truly blow away at the sheer level of skill on display by Mr Roth - an artiste to be sure, and an incredible instrument. As a lifelong student and player of pipe organ I am awestruck by this collaboration. Bravo!
This gentleman has several adult children and they are all musicians in their own right....just awesome!
The expression on Daniel’s face when he plays the first notes is priceless!
This man is shear magnificence in every way.... What a national treasure for France... He is a world scholar on all music.... May the Lord preserve and bless him ....
Magnifique "un deux trois quatre cinc six". Could you read his lips? Bravo!
It's almost unbelievable that a sound this powerful (even by today's standards) was made possible over 100 years ago.
To young people listening. No amplifiers, no speakers, no electronics, no computers, no digital manipulation, just pure, powerful sound made by real musicians on real instruments. The organ shakes the building to its core by blowing wind into pipes that stand 32 feet tall. Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord!
Yes!!
I can imagine what scene is like powerful !
Amen to that......
And the Sydney Town Hall organ has a pipe that stands 64 feet tall- although it's bent over to fit into the building.
I am addicted to the sound of Cavaillé-Coll's incredible instruments. I got to experience this instrument myself for a few glorious minutes during an organ tour many years ago, and Monsieur Roth was a most gracious host. I got to experience the sounds that Widor and Dupré knew, and I discovered how ergonomic this console is for people less than 6 feet tall. At a hair under 6 feet, I felt cramped. Unforgettable experience! The instrument is indeed breathtaking in person.
WOW!!! What I wouldn't give to be there.. amazing performance!😁🎵🎶🎵👍
Why can't I like this twice?
+pipe-organ I'll like it for you. What a magnificent sound. Good grief what it you were in that building to hear it live. Imagine what it would sound like if you were standing in the organ.
+robert shaw RIP ears!
Same wish I could like this 4 times!
Quelle merveille ! Cela fait un bien immense, même troublant, dans le plus profond du corps et de l'âme !
This instrument is an unbelievable masterpiece
King of all instruments. Accept no less
It's endearing to watch Roth count out the big chords...Lip reading, he counting in French un deux trois, quarte, cinq...I must be tough getting the timing right in such a big building, even with the video monitor
Now this is the first time EVER we actually see the organist counting the opening bars ! I always do it in my head. 😀
I like how you can see M. Roth going "Un, deux, trois, quatre, cing six . . . " ha ha!
You have to consider the delay of organs also ;)
When the organ speaks, people can just listen and the orchestra has to bow for the power of the organ.
Mon dieu, quelle merveille...
What a terrific performance and recording. I’m an organist, and to get a recording that shows the organist’s perspective in a large church and acoustic such as St Sulpice is pure genius. I’m living the experience with Mr Roth on every single note - just superb. Thank you for posting this video.
How on earth does Mr Roth allow for the tremendous spatial distance, not only physically but also the incredibly reverberant acoustic? It's wonderful!
Because he's watching the conductor. The sound of the orchestra and the sound of the organ are reaching each other at the same time and the lag is consistent.
@@jimmorgan5612 And he's counting like hell.
Unbelievable! I wonder if Saint Saens ever played that organ. On another note: something equally fantastic. There's a video of Johnathan Scott's transcription of the complete symphony for solo organ. The versions are like 2 big steam locomotives on parallel tracks, both awesome and powerful. From Chicago, U.S.A.
The lingering echo on the last chord is pure release; spiritually and emotionally
It gave me chills!
How can one argue with perfection?? Perfect organ by Cavaille-Coll, perfect organist, perfect timing in that echoing building, perfect orchestra balance nicely with the big organ! Magnificent!!
Wow - what an experience that must have been to be in the audience.
What a gift some UA-cam algorithm gave me by suggesting this. Saint Sean’s third has always spoken to me, but the visual here added so much. The spiritual power of the 4th movement catches fire when we can participate in it through watching the magnificent wrestling of the artists to jointly bring it to life.Simply divine.
Quelle prestation! Incroyable! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! Et Merci!
Got goose bumps all over and the hair in my neck stood up !
Simply magnificent !
Thanks so very much for this opportunity to look the organist over his shoulder.
This is a very unique experience listening at the organ side, what a performance
The organ at St. Sulpice must be one of the most powerful sounding musical instruments on Earth. There are a number of recorded organ performances from there on the net and even the crappy mp4 format permits some degree of this huge sound to come across.
Bravo!
I love how he counts aloud to not get lost in the vast accoustic of the buildingXDXDXD. Love this piece. Love how he tackles the challengeXD.
OMG.....I need cigarette..../Daniel Roth (and Cavaille-Coll) rock the house!!!!! BRAVO!!
Very interesting to hear the orchestra in the background and the organ in the foreground. Usually, it is the other way around. What a beautiful piece of music interpreted by masters of their domain.
Bien vu !!! Un long courrier à destination de l'excellence et la maestria musicale de st saens,Daniel Roth assure en toute sérénité ce vol
Thank you for showing how this wonderful piece is played by the organist. Timing is perfect! Wonderful sound!
Usually, I don't like this piece which is often played in a concert hall, with a dry acoustic. But here, it's just grandiose. Thanks for sharing !
+Raphaël Meyer Amen to that! I usually can't stand to even listen to this entire piece due to pathetic acoustics in other venues that don't do it justice. But this one is dead on!!!
Quelle œuvre magnifique
I put the Like at the beginning of the video. I knew it would be good... but My Lord! The Power!!
Now This is how its done!
Majestly played!!!!!, sooooooo amazing👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
A truly authoritative and majestic performance! Thank you Daniel Roth! MORE!
what wonderful thundering chords at the beginning
Music just does not get any better than that. Perhaps the greatest piece of music ever written done justice by world class musicians with the greatest of all instruments taking the lead. This is a faultless performance worth the entrance fee by itself.
Thank you Pierre-Francois for this amazing upload. You have put a lot of attention to detail in your postings. This masterpiece by Aristide Cavaillé-Coll is the perfect instrument for this piece. I got to the point of disliking it after so many years but hearing it like this made it new and exciting for me. There's just something spine-tingling about a 32 foot bombarde. Assisting Daniel Roth at the console must have been a great experience. I presume you play as well?
It would be a dream if someone like Inspired Acoustics sampled this organ. It's one way that the organ could be kept forever come Hell or high water, or a fire.
I really love listening to this and watching Daniel in action!
Love the intense level of concentration. Superb performance.
C'est la meilleure interprétation de cette pièce, à ma connaissance, spécialement pour la partie orgue !
WOW! Beyond AMAZING!
Gotta love those bass drum hits towards the end. It must be hard to play with the orchestra factoring in the time it takes for the sound to travel through Saint Sulpice.
A superb rendition of Saint-Saens' work. Thanks to the players. i do wish though that the congregation would allow the last bar of the organ to completely fade out before they commence the well deserved applause.
Great Daniël !!!!!
How I wish I could have a recording of this performance. Daniel, I know you will never see this, but I absolutely adore your artistry! You are amazing, sir. Thank God we can enjoy your talent! Best to you from Georgia, USA!
the live recording is available here www.actes-sud.fr/catalogue/arts/saint-saens-cd
Pierre-François, one curiosity if I can... did you use an ANALOGUE camera and monitor for Daniel Roth to see the conductor? I am asking you this because digital video systems tend to have a very noticeable latency time (propagation delay) due to all the encoding, decoding, processing etc... so when the director waves his hands, his picture on the monitor follows after some tenths of a second... of course, that would be unacceptable for your purposes. So did you have to find an old analogue camera and monitor in order to have zero delay? ;0) Thank you!
Amazing!!
The wonderfulness and comfort of this performance Ìs unrivaled, and immeasurable, and beyond description, and o the charts
I think I am addicted to this video.
By far the best version that I know of.
Daniel is so awesome!
Jesus Christ, what a sound...
Daniel you are awesome
Magnifique !!!!!!
I love to listen and watch Daniel Roth master this great instrument as he does so artistically. Thank you so much for your gifts That You share so generously! And, thank you for keeping this important instrument so well protected for the generations to come, and someday be as thrilled by it.
Amazing performance
If you pay attention to the first seconds of the work, you will notice that Mr. Daniel Roth counts the measures aloud, I think it is because of how weak the orchestra is heard from the organ area. The instrument covers the orchestra, and nothing can be heard from the choir, so there is no sound reference, you can only trust the score.
Wonderful performance!
Magnifique
Somptueux et puissant !

Great interpretation but also a really good sound engineering which makes this the most enjoyable recording I have heard in many years.
Absolutely beautiful
Quelle merveille cet Allegro giocoso !!!
Quelle puissance,c'est majestueux.....
I am watching this for the umpteenth time - every time, it is just pure joy to watch and listen! I have posted here before - it is simply genius to see the organist’s perspective on this wonderful work.
Fabulous to be able to see it 'organ-side'. Thank you so much for posting!
AMAZING !!!
Would loved to have been there, I can only imagine !
One word: amazing!
I had the great pleasure of attending M. Roth's 30th anniversary recital at St. Sulpice in October 2015. It was thrilling to hear the first mvt. of Widor's 5th Symphony on the instrument it was written for. There were also duets with his assistant Mme Choplin, including a two organ piece with her playing the choir organ. The final long chord of that piece was the most glorious sound I have ever experienced from an organ!
The music is awesome. I wonder how much practice was needed to perfect the music.
Thank you, thank you
Somebody pinch me.... did I just die and go to heaven? W.O.W.
Magnifique cadeau de Dieu! La perfection, comme si Dieu parlait!! Maître Roth!!!
Perfection in every respect. Thank you!
Fantastico!!!!!!!!!!
Merci ! Thanks a lot ! Great Sound !!!!!
Fabulous. Simply beautiful.
Pure Magic...
Incredible! The sound is phenomenal!
Magnificent! Thank you for posting this marvelous video!
Majestueux!
THIS IS THE BEST recording of this final movement out there on youtube.... none of the others can beat it (sorry but they seriously can't!)
It is just your opninion , No it is not because the balance between Organ and Orchestra is not right. The best recording is that from auckland. It might not be the best performed but surely the best Organ Part and the beste balanced Soundregistration. THat Organ part is majestic but still let the orchestra alive. In this registration the Organ killed the Orchestra. Just listen to this same organ player not that majestic organ but the balnce is there ua-cam.com/video/eTsbgDBC4_k/v-deo.html
@@gijzje The balance is not correct, because, from what I can hear, the sound was recorded from the console, not in the building.
Fantastic! Goosebumps!
On se croirait dans le cockpit d'un long-courrier !!!! Pilote,co-pilote et mécanicien !!! ety j'dore l'organiste qui compte la mesure à voiX haute !!!! Ceci posé...Belle exécution!
Outstanding.
Glorious ... simply glorious!
Magnifique!
Prachtig werk! Prachtige uitvoering van dit schitterend werk van Saint-saens! Heerlijk!
Impressionnant!
Extraordinary recording!
MAGNAFIQUE!
I wish I could hve been there for this performance. Magnificent!
This is the real sound I always had hoped to hear . You need an organ like this glorious CC !!!!!!
I was there on that day and had a private look at the organ.
