- Doug Marshall plays Marshall & Ogletree Opus 5 in the Oratory at Ave Maria University. AMU is located in Ave Maria, Florida, near Naples.
Specifications and information about this organ and others built by M&O are available at www.Marshalland.... The university web site is: www.avemaria.edu. Please visit!
as a pipe organ builder this is by far the best sound that I have heard produced by a pipeless organ.
me too
Whenever I struggle to practice, I just listen to this piece and it reinspires me all over again! I love the intensity of the music and the technical choices you've made.
Franck's piece takes me on a journey that seems to end at the gateway to another world.
Many organ builders are not accomplished organists, and vice versa. The fact that Doug Marshall has both the qualities of craftsman and a musician is what makes Marshall & Ogletree organs the best digital installations in the world.
Wow, what an organ!
And what a organplayer!
Thanks for this performance.
5:17 -- the beginning of one of the sweetest passages in all of music. And...what a light touch Mr Marshall has--and though music is sitting in front of him I never see him look at it or turn the page.
Yes. Gives me goosebumps.
Somebody understands my tears...
A brilliant interpretation! I loved the contrasting beauty and tension. Thank you for being so imaginative.
Cameron Carpenter designed the console and specification for this organ as well as the organ we built for Middle Collegiate Church, where he was organist. He prefers rocker tabs and we, of course, were pleased to oblige.
Wonderful! Thrills my soul every time I hear this composition!!
this is my favorite #3 in Amin on the Tube - such artistry in playing, such layering with the organ - Bravo! Mr Marshall
Maestro Marshall is a truly great and inspiring organist.
Nice performance.
8 years after first hearing it, still listening to it regularly. It's awesome 😀

I am a classically trained double-bassist, so I tend to be attuned (!) to low frequencies. :) That 64 foot A on the pedal board came through despite UA-cam's somewhat constipated audio characteristics.
Hearing this magnificent composition, always takes away my breath!
Wonderful playing and interpretation!
Breathtaking and ethereal sound. Wonderful.Thanks for sharing.
What a wonderful performance! The celestes in the swell were magic, and the effect when they were sub and super coupled and on tremulant was beautiful instead of garish. I grew up listening to Alexander Schreiner hold forth on the Aeolian-Skinner in the Tabernacle, and this transports me back then. Magic!
Muito pujante essa peça! Bela interpretação do organista!
I have played this choral many times and I must say the organ in this video is very impressive and has such a rich and sonorous sound!
Fantastic!!!
Félicitation, Vous êtes un très grand interprète.
thanks Doug I love you
awesome playing organpower!
Impressive piece and organ ...
Beautiful! I knew this piece in a version transcribed for piano as recorded by pianist Stephen Hough long time ago. Used to listen to so many times as a teenager. The slow part touches me deeply. Thank you for your wonderful playing.
This recording gives me goosebumps. Especially after the 10th minute mark, love the bass in the pedal there. I stored this video on my NAS and will keep it there forever :-)
Using the swell celestes after the opening toccata is sumptuous! Delicious performance through and through!
Funny but not written like this, you may use Hautbois or Trumpet on swell to increase sound
Dom Poul What will the fine be for not following the exact instructions on the sheet music? Maybe loss of organ drivers license?
I'd say standing ovations for this performance! Precision, sensitivity and power! At least with this master player, the digital organ competes well with a real pipe organ. Still I also much would like to hear Marshall with a pipe organ. I´ll look through this site to begin with.
Simply Superb!!!
Bravo! Well done. I particular like the "American" inspiration such as using the different types of celestes.
Wonderfully clear!
it is the best
STUNNING!!!!!
Love it!!
I prefer this performance to the one by M.C. Alain. Very musical and I prefer the virtual pipe organ here which has a warmer sound. Well done to performer and the organ maker!
Excellent!
beautifull registrations wow I was weeping during those string stops,and the Vox humana drove me away.It was ecxtasy
Of all the recordings of Choral in A minor, this is the best, in my opinion, due to the registrations used, especially the 32' pedal stop;
think I agree too,Germani use to be my favouite but this is far superior
Wonderful, would love to hear a piano transcription of this.
Bravo!
Magnificent in every respect. For a fine contrast, check out Alexander Frey's UA-cam vid of his A-minor Choral performance at Trinity Wall Street (also, of course, a M&O organ)
das ist der schönste von allen dreien . eine echte Fantasie
...und auch von diesem in die Jahre gekommenen Organisten sehr gut und lebendig interpretiert - ja, dieser 3. Choral von Franck ist auch der bekannteste und wirklich grossartig!!!
@@ulrichsteiger757 Es gibt eine hervorragende wenn nicht gar die beste Aufnahme von Joachim Grubich aus der Katedrale von Oliva (Danzig) auf Vinyl..
As a pipeorhan builder I have to warning each one: True sound will be in church not on youtube. But it is also true that some of this installation are very good..I have only experience with Hauptwerk. I never heard This brand.
Cette chorale en A mineur de César Frank pour orgue est un vrai régal tant pour les oreilles que pour les yeux.
wow again too emotional for me wow
@SuperOldandSlow Why yes, it is, on the last note. Good catch!
The rgree chotales are the lst wok by Désar Frack, which he ended on his deadbed.
What?????
Самое внятное и убедительное исполнение! Благодарю всем сердцем!
FANTASTIC-REALLY FINE!
brano melodioso e molto ispirante.
the most beautiful organ piece I know. Bach would be jealous, its even better than his Passacaglia.
just P E R F E C T as the Bach E flat major.
Doug Marshall is a fantastic organist. He defines the word "multitasking."
Actually, it is impossible to do as many things together as a professional organist.
Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)
I like the 64 footer he turned on at th--- I better not spoil it >:D
Did this organ have a 64 footer? I thought he just turned on the 32' bombarde, just guessing.
@@jeffgreen5603Yes this organ has a 64 foot stop. Adds a great depth to the final chord!
To the 21 people that gave this a thumbs down. Shame on YOU!!!
Close your eyes, open your ears and you can hear Virgil Fox dancing on the pedals! Speaking of pedals, did I hear a 64 foot stop near the end?
Very well played! but.. I had never see somebody in turning pages.. and pages follow the music!....
The sheet music is "decoration", he is playing without...
Doug is one of the best Organists of today. He always masters the music he plays. I started to follow him when he studied under the late great Virgil Fox, however, it is quite evident that he became great by his own making. It has always been a part of him. He has a perfect technique....both the keyboard, and the pedal.
Doug I would be very interested in knowing when designing your ORGAN why you chose the 'rocker tablets' instead of the push tablets, or draw knobs. Curious??
Pourquoi cette registration sur la deuxième partie ? Cesar Franck utilisait le hautbois sur le récit pour compenser le manque de puissance de Ste Clotilde d'où un son si particulier, et après cela se gate avec ce son d'orgue de cinéma, quel sacrilège...
Electronic/sampled organs have come a long way, but low pedals give them away every time. Just not anywhere near natural.
You're shure all the transmission chain and your speakers can assure you this is the truth?
I do agree that i have never heard a bass like this in a real organ. But it sounds good. It does not need to be a 100% clone of a real pipe organ.
Doug ,you rank with Havanga easy
including console, processors, speakers and subwoofers, how much did this organ cost?
I've read somewhere on the internet that M&O organs start around 300.000$ up to into the million. Though i can barely imagine such prices for a sampled organ. I would say 50k $ maximum.
+Richard van Pukkem: Did you mean $50,000 MINIMUM?!??
If a M&O digital-organ STARTS at $300,000, that's not much less than what an actual pipe-organ starts at. I can't imagine spending, say, $1,000,000 on a digital when that kind of money can get an already-substantial pipe-instrument...
+LJBSasha i think the same. But i only mentioned a pricerange i read on the internet. Some newspaper article.
+Richard van Pukkem OK, newspaper articles can - and all too frequently are - err...
And including the impossibility to tune some of the reed pipes. So pity that for instance the low A and G# of the 32'/64' are so obviously out of tune. Just take the last few bars, A-B-C sounding like about pff-B-C, F-G#-A like F-grr-pff..
Rectification: Lire variation au lieu de chorale
Muy buena interpretación, solo no entendí el sentido de controlar el volumen con el pedal durante el choral. Estos decrescendos bruscos fueron totalmente sin sentido.
They are strange, I never liked them myself, but they’re actually Cesar Franck’s own dynamics, check the score...
Well, there was not much "Choral" going on :0)
what,s wrong with the people thumbs down yi joking right
Personnellement, je trouve qu'il y a beaucoup d'expression dans cette interprétation, bien que je suis d'accord avec le côté "guimauve"...
Ça sonne un peu trop Wurlitzer à mon goût.
Ah Cesar Franck. There's the French...and then there's everything else!!
Great maestro but playing tooo fast sometimes
poco appassionato solo l'adagio
Mr. Marshall may be an extraordinary digital organ designer, and a technically respectable organist, but he totally misrepresented this piece. Playing the "chorale" on celestes completely misses the point; the "adagio" is played with all the sensitivity of a Republican. Then at the climactic recapitulation of the chorale with the left hand restating (developed) the opening theme in the left hand, you can't hear it because he doesn't reduce the pedal. A pedal point that powerful simply drowns out any counterpoint going on in manuals. It's simple acoustics.
Well then, I'm sure we all look forward to your better rendition very soon.
Cannot wait for it ;-)
davewvu1 It may not be "very" soon (it's been 25 years since I"ve played recital); but, it will be. I hope it will be recorded so as to be able to post it. BTW, I'm currently practising on an Allen G330 instrument that's about 9 months old; and, notwithstanding my natural scepticism of electronics the thing is seriously convincing.
@@davewvu1 here it is lol: ua-cam.com/video/IbEZAqikJrQ/v-deo.html
@@samnelsonorganist My respect that he can actually play it. But i think this version of Doug Marshall is a lot better. But it's not a competition anyway... everyone can play it however they like it.
Well, the customer is always right. Even those that disrespect their audiences by dressing like circus acrobats.
I’m guessing you are referring to Cameron Carpenter although i have no clue what he has to do with his video? I don’t think Doug is dressed like a circus acrobat at least.
