- This unedited video is a kind of behind-the-scenes view from the magnificent organ console at St Sulpice in Paris.
I play first the Prelude & Fugue in D by Franz Schmidt, and then at around 10'33, The TOCCATA from Symphonie no.5 by WIDOR!
I am very grateful to Maestro Daniel Roth for allowing me to post this video for me to share with everyone!
Maestro Roth always reminds me of a mad eccentric alchemist when he’s registering for guest organists. He knows the instrument and its idiosyncrasies, and by Jove, it will behave itself in front of guests! Just wonderful!
Wow two legends sitting together and bravo Wayne that was epic!!!!!
Exactly!^^😁👍😆👍
waou! just fantastic sound!
Daniel Roth has no time with facebook!😀😀Amazing!
hahaha that made me laugh A LOT!
Rhoooooooo it's extraordinary bravo ...
Absolutely superb Wayne Bravo 👏
Absolutely incredible. Wayne plays the Schmidt with such great ease, and panache. Thank you.
Your speed in the Widor is astounding. Incredibly fleet and also powerful. I've heard a number of recordings with a noticably slower tempo for this - and I like those too - but I really like this a lot. And your coda is just stunning. Tour de force. Bravissimo!
Very deep and emotionally charged compositions played so beautifully by organist Wayne Marshall
quel beau prélude et fugue de F Schmidt vous me faites découvrir, cher Wayne, j'aime beaucoup. Et cette célébrissime Toccata de ChM Widor, que vous interprétez "tout dans la tête", sur un beau tempo bien adapté, bravo à vous ! Merci pour cet hommage à cet ancien organiste de St Sulpice
Great to see you together with Daniel Roth - bravissimo!
Franz Schmidt is one of the world's most under-rated composers. His organ works are some of the finest (and most difficult) of the first half of the twentieth century). Three cheers for anyone who undertakes to learn them!
I love his Chaconne in C Sharp Minor
@@fluteharmonique8 Rated by Walter Pach as the greatest single work in the entire organ literature. Wheter it is or not, it is probably the most difficult. A manual technique equal to the demands of the Brahms B-flat Piano Concerto is maybe halfway to the demands of the Chaconne. And don't forget the pedals, too. International Ballroom is a literal walk in the park by comparison.
I'm a massive fan of Marshall AND Roth. Some would say Marshall rattles through his pieces. True, but some of them are so explosive it takes your breath away, especially playing Widor. On the flip side if you here Roth play eg the toccata from symphony No 5 (Widor), he does it with the most beautiful nuances that will make you weep! (unless you are a robot). In short - they deserve a place (in their own right) in musical culture. Bravo!
What a wonderful first piece!!!!
Merci Maître! You lucky so and so! Having St Sulpice all to yourself with Daniel at your side - wonderful!
It's way too fast! 😮 We dont play Schmidts Präludium not like that in Germany 😂❤
Sharing the bench with the legendary Daniel Roth. Amazing experience and great to hear you play the mighty St Sulpice organ.
sharing the legendary bench with the legendary Daniel Roth :)
Mighty is right...wow
Wow! Stunning performance 👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶
The Two titans meet! Amazing as always 👌
I have heard and recorded quite a few pipe organs in the past 50 years, but the ability to discern the exact "octave" or pitch of the pedal notes is stunning, regardless of the reverberant space which by the way is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love your playing! WIDOR!!!!!!!!!
Exceptional video! Great stuff!
Omg . Having Daniel Roth as your registrant at the Cc organ in st. Sulpice!
WOW WOW WOW Brilliant Widor played so well on a fantastic organ
Outstanding, Sir
Two amazing super stars, Maestro Marshall is also a pianist and conductor. Please come to the USA for recitals
Bravo!👋👋👋
Brilliant performance! Congratulations Wayne!
The growling bass is just marvellous, provided you have the appropriate speakers!
Hopefully, I'll have the chance to play that magnificient organ by myself --- hopefully! :)
Wow..........fantástic!
Just simply tremendous ! Wayne just communicates so much passion and love in his organ playing. Daniel Roth looks very well. I would be lost at the console without the aid of Daniel Roth and usually two registrants to assist.
I'm grateful, too.
Very finely played Widor, nice sharp attack on the notes, but it really should be a bit slower. Wonderful sound from this great organ! Especially the HUGE pedal voices! Great to see Maestro Roth again! Thank you Wayne!! Greetings from Canada!
Hee,hee, soon as I saw the jacket and warm clothing, I KNEW it was cold in that space, and the organ certainly reflected that in it's tuning response to those temps (O: Wonderful just the same!
Yes it's certainly cold in the church as there is little heating. It's a vast building and the cost to heat is prohibitive. Tuning is also a huge exercise with over 7,000 pipes. The reeds as usual but the 18th century mixtures need careful attention.
Great!! This is the way to demonstrate the Organ :)
Fantastique ♥️🙏🏻
What can one say? Every cell in my body feels so alive listening to this music on such a grand instrument in such a fine church. A real privilege to partake in this grandeur! And after the music what a lovely and fitting touch to bring the modern communication technology to such an occasion! The wisdom and craftsman’s ship of the organ builders of 1862 is matched by the superb talent of Wayne and Daniel. Timeless!!!!
Great to see you at Saint Sulpice, Wayne! Quite a change from the Jasbo Brown piano at Glyndebourne. But how does it compare to Norwich? This must be the Organ Widor had in mind for that Toccata - you certainly pulled out all the stops!
Stunning Wayne, out of this world buddy!!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Hi Adrian! It’s been too long since we last spoke. Hope you are well my friend. Let’s catch up!
You play that magnificent instrument so exquisitely well, my friend!
A lot to learn with Roth.-
A pleasure to see and hear!
This reminds me of hearing Noel Rawsthorne playing this in Liverpool Cathedral. A magnificent piece. I really must get round to listening to it's source, The Book with Seven Seals.
You rock it sir! Great performance!
Absolutely smashing! Love it.
Such a magnificent instrument and a wonderful performance!
Wonderfully played, I love this piece!
What Facebook is ? Daniel Roth, 2022 😂
What a fantastic piece... and I am so very glad to see Daniel Roth sharing the console with you.. I have always wanted to visit the Sulpice and touch a piece of actual history.... What an honor for you and us to listen to this piece. Thanks for sharing and keep up the fantastic work!
Great to hear! Such majesty!
Great work
What a powerful performance. Bravo!
Brilliantly well done Wayne.
Insane. Daniel Roth instructing Wayne Marshall on playing Widor at St. Sulpice, and Wayne Marshall demonstrating Facebook to Daniel Roth. You couldn't make it up!
Brilliant as usual Wayne
Magnificent, as always, Wayne! It is so sad that we cannot see and hear more of you in the UK, these days?
Thanks for blessing my quarantine with the best organ music, I didn't know I needed.
Oh well! I really love Franz Schmidt and especially his Cantata "Buch mit sieben Siegel", where the Halleluja chorus - also arranged/reused into a prelude and fuge in D, you played here in the vid - appears in the ending. This Cantata has really difficult organ solo parts!
Very interesting interpretation of this piece!
Great performances and a lovely chat with Daniel Roth but it would have been better to have the interview just with UA-cam due to the low volume level.
13:42 That look on your face when you were really getting into those huge low octaves on the pedals!! You were having a blast!
The sense I get when I listen to your style of playing: It's almost like you're saying "Hey, check this phrase out! Oh! Look what they're doing here!" It's like you're pulling all the interesting parts forward, rather than steamrolling through like a player piano.
Ma che meraviglia!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
St Stulpice organ and Maestro Wayne Marshall - such amazing and celestial combination. THANK YOU very much for a great experience.
Grande Wayne!!!
I believe that Daniel Roth will sooner or later be an integral part of the decor of the St. Sulpice organ console!
It is said his ashes shall be merged with the dust within mecanism and pipes
@@guessouiam7738 ahahahahahahah
No wonder you were smiling like the cat that got the cream when that famous melody in the pedal line comes back!
Absolutely wonderful. The end of the Widor made all the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. A joy to watch you playing and to hear Daniel's comments. Thank you!
Beautiful ❤
"Would you mind if we were to go live on Facebook just for a few minutes?"
"WHAT IS ZIS??"
Wayne!! What ya doin' at 15:00 (alternate F major (RH) and D minor (LH!) arpeggios)?? That's the trouble with you improvisers: you make up ya own versions! 😉🙂
This was absolutely electric!!! Phenomenal
Interesting seeing Roth give Marshall the same advice about Widor as Joe Diaz was giving other guitarists about playing Black Sabbath... Slow down ;) It lets the music develop more in the hearer's mind (and also in those huge acoustics at St. Sulpice.) :->
It's written at 118 bpm in 4/2 time.
And that's how the composer defined its allegro.
The Widor was way too fast, but loved SChmidt!
Mr Marshall, You are overclockked!
Schmidt was too muddled. Widor was too fast.
Great Wayne, awesome 👍
omg. that’s not so beautiful.
Just what precisely is coupled to what?!! Terrific!
its even better after the twentieth time!
Splendid
Brilliant - I was only reading about this organ and its designer last week, for the first time...what a magnificent instrument, brought to life by Wayne. Thank you.👍👍👍
There were several designers for this instrument. It was originally built in the 18th century, but when Cavaille-Coll rebuilt it in the 19th century much of this pipework was retained. This includes much of the reeds and mixtures as well as some of the flue work. Cavaille-Coll believed in respecting and integrating much of the pipework he inherited. This is true of many of his instruments but in the case of St Sulpice as much as 40% of the pipework is 18th century Clicquot. This explains the fiery nature of the reeds and the brilliance of the mixtures. Due to this fact the organ of St Sulpice has a very special nature and can only really be appreciated in person. It stands as the largest instrument ever built by Cavaille-Coll, with 102 stops and over 7,000 pipes.
@@ds1868 thank you for a wonderfully informative response👍
@@m6j159 You're welcome! I hope you can hear this instrument in person, so much better than recordings.
Is that Maestro Roth next to you??
You were awesome at St.Thomas this past weekend! Enjoyed the program immensely!
This is shaking the whole neighbourhood just listening to it on my iPad! Marshall, Roth, and Cavaillé Coll; three gods all at the same time! (actually I thought Wayne was a tad pacey with the Widor).
Merci au Maestro Wayne Marshall pour jouer avec autant de brio et de carté avec le phrasé demandé par Widor et à un tempo supersonique cette Toccata !!!
Justement trop supersonique...
Wayne Marshall um dos maiores organistas da atualidade, ao lado do Mestre Daniel Roth. The best! BRASIL!
Porque "Brasil" ??? O que isso tem a ver com o Brasil?
@@guessouiam7738 Simples: o elogio veio de um brasileiro. Para eles é de grande valia. Um abraço.
No 'politics' here! Music is the greatest medium for collaboration for the whole of Mankind. Marvellous stuff!
What a blissful conjunction! ...Fugue by Franz Schmidt on a Clicquot-plein-jeu: extremely rare!
Excellent!
Bravo!
Sir Marshall est un organiste spontané, humble et talentueux. Quel plaisir il a quand il joue.....Le petit monsieur Roth devrait en prendre de la graine ...😏
Who wouldn't want to hear Wayne Marshall or Daniel Roth play their pipe organ?
You can tell he’s also a conductor from the way he plays.
That organ has a pretty fast action when you think about it. It's fast enough to listen to what you're playing. :->
Fast enough to play Widor's Toccata at nearly double speed and still hear what you're doing lol
This is the greatest organ in the world.
WOW!! Was für ein Sound, genial gespielt!
Bravo!
Much better! Amazing piece!
Just so good , brilliant 👏 👌
13:47 Wayne's face!
Just awesome talent!
