This is one of the finest performances of this piece I've heard. Bravo, Thomas! I subscribe to all his UA-cam performances and have heard him in performance on tour. He's one of the four or five best in the business today.
This is THE MOST exciting and nuanced performance of this movement I have ever heard...it almost left me in tears. Thomas: You have captured the 'French' essence of this music and have clearly laid out its structure in your registration and tempo flexibility at important cadences. When you start to add all those glorious reeds your playing changes and becomes fiery and aggressive, as if the reeds are calling out to you. I feel like you have set free the soul of this amazing instrument and given joy to its expression. This is a gift that not even many French organists have. Your performance is truly French in every possible way. Felicitations! Thank you for using the 32' in the 'chorale' variation. Once Americans are allowed in Europe again and the Covid restrictions, I would love to come back to Paris, meet you and take you for a meal. My mother was native French and I'm been to that beautiful country over a dozen times. Thank you!
That was amazing! I set this off as some background music but ended up giving it my full attention complete with headphones. If a performance grabs my attention like this I know it is special and this was special "with knobs on!" Great job. Tempi sounded right; registration brought out aspects I had not noticed previously. I lost count of the registration changes! But it all fitted together seamlessly. This is my new favourite Widor 5 Allegro.
It's absolutely the best performance I've ever heard. Your playing "legato" makes me delighted. Widor would be proud if He could see you playing his works.
Outstanding! There’s a fantastic feeling of continuity in this performance despite the myriad changes in registration, keyboards, etc. This sense of continuity is conveyed, at least partly, through clarity of tempo, rhythm, and articulation.
Quand l'art musical a un tel Maitre , il doit être " vénéré " et " adulé " fortement . Le talent n'a pas d'âge . Thomas l'incarne avec justesse , sensibilité et force . Eblouissant , connaisseur de ses Oeuvres et leurs Auteurs il incarne le Ciel dans sa Splendeur . Divin Thomas , merci .... OOOO
C'est magistral ! Le combinateur, quelle merveilleuse invention ! Ici la notion d'orgue - orchestre prend tout son sens. Quelle maîtrise dans cette oeuvre splendide ! Et, le tout par coeur ! !
Encore une fois merci et bravo pour cette belle interprétation! Je suis du même avis que Rodolphe! Je me réjouis de te revoir le plus tôt possible… Avec toute mon amitié!
Uma das melhores performances que já ouvi. Esse jovem toca muito, sua forma de registrar o magnífico instrumento é soberba Muito agradecido por essa gravação de grande qualidade musical!
Whoaouuuu!!!! De loin la meilleure interprétation que j’ai entendu de cette œuvre que j’aime particulièrement, j’aimais beaucoup celle du regretté P. Pincemaille jusque là.... mais là, c’est un cran au dessus !! Un tempo juste, et enfin des respirations dans cette œuvre, souvent jouée tellement vite qu’on n’entend plus les nuances, registration parfaite, bref bravo et grand merci !!
Salut Thomas! J'adore tes interprétations! J'habite au Brésil, mais j'ai eu l'occasion d'assister à 2 de ses récitals à Saint-Eustache, la dernière fois que j'étais à Paris. Dans l'un, vous avez joué La naissance du Seigneur de Messian à Noël 2018! C'était spectaculaire! Alors que je ne peux pas rentrer en France, je suis votre travail sur les réseaux! Merci de partager votre musique, de cette façon notre isolement social est plus léger!
What a great pleasure after the lockdown. My eternal gratitude Mr. Oospital. I’m looking forward to seeing more overwhelming performances like this, love from Brazil 🇧🇷

Quelle poésie. Merci Monsieur Ospital
Organ music has been my great passion for more than 40 years. I thought I had heard almost all the great organists...then came Thomas Ospital...WOW!👍👍
Very colourful and skilled, great clarity and definition of motifs, great liberty taken in tempo.
Greetings from Canada! Great performance, many thank-yous!
Great work! Exciting performance. Not to take anything away from the skill of the organist but I am amazed at the organ: such range and complexity.
Tous ces contrastes de couleur, ces nuances, cette énergie. Merci Thomas. On n'en perd pas une miette.
Oh he misses Many beats, that defines his free treatment of the tempo. It is beautiful though, but I can now not trust his tempo at Any point..
Incredible memory work, playing and the organ is just the icing on the cake. Thanks for sharing this delicious upload. Like if you agree 👍😎
You ain't kiddin'! Wow!
agreed! :)
agreed! :)
7:56, mon moment préféré, je suis aux anges lorsque je vous écoute, cher Thomas !!!!!
This is one of the finest performances of this piece I've heard. Bravo, Thomas! I subscribe to all his UA-cam performances and have heard him in performance on tour. He's one of the four or five best in the business today.
Oh I think there are many many more than 4 or 5 like him.
It's again performance of the bestorganist&bestorgan pair. Awesome Thomas!!!🙏🏻
One of the best performances I ever heard of this piece! And I like it that is was played 'upstairs'. That is the best place for music of Widor.
One of the most talented organist playing today.....so young and also very handsome.
A welcome change from the old stuffed shirts of yesteryear......!

Marc expressed it much better than I could ... musicianship of the highest order .. magical.
A great musician, a fantastic instrument, and a marvellous acoustic! Bravissimo!
Merci pour cette splendide interprétation !
Cela sonne à merveille à St Eustache !

Un musicien total, une superbe maitrise de l'instrument, de la pure musique. Merci Monsieur
The best recording of this piece I have ever heard!
Beautiful! No rush. The music simply comes to life . Bravo!
Superbe interprétation! Bravo Thomas👏👏👏
Mr.Ospital and this organ are meant for each other
I was on the edge of my seat for the whole piece, bravo!
By far the best performance of this piece I’ve heard!
Wow that was awesome.

Heyyyyy Thomas ... je viens de m'abonner et cette pièce est jouée avec grande passion .... j'adore... merci à toi et bravo pour autant de fougue

Absolutely brilliant! Keep an eye out for this guy!
This should win over the harshest critics! My ears need a “Ospital”! Great performance.
Vraiment étonnant!!! J'adore cet orgue ci, et merci sourtout pour l'avoir joué sur la consolle mécanique!! Super Thomas!!!
MERCI Thomas Ospital, c'est vraiment vivant votre interprétation...
Superb! What a joy to see and hear, and from memory. Bravo!
En dehors de tout le reste : je n'imagine pas pouvoir me souvenir d'un tel morceau de musique. Je suis étonné!
Wonderful. Thank you. Hopefully hear it in person one day.
Quelle perfection dans le jeu et justesse dans la registration ! le crescendo à partir de 7:59 donne des frissons ;)
Another excellent performance! It has virtuosity, grandeur and bounce!
C'est magistral ! Le combinateur, quelle merveilleuse invention ! Ici la notion d'orgue - orchestre prend tout son sens. Quelle maîtrise dans cette oeuvre splendide ! Et, le tout par coeur ! !
Merci Jimmy c'est splendide
The best rendition of this I have heard. Congratulations Thomas.

congratulations from Poland
Bravo Thomas 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
En alles uit het hoofd.. fantastisch!
There are no words to describe this performance.
Bravo Thomas! J'adore!
Absolutely wonderful performance!
Époustouflant ! Merci infiniment, de l’île Maurice, un pays ou il n'y a - hélas - pas d'orgues... Avez-vous enregistré les autres mouvements ?
The Sultan of Oman chose this piece for the opening of the magnificent Klais organ at the Royal Muscat Opera House about 20 years ago.
WOW! Superbe!!!
Great interpretation!
An interpretation for sure, and beautiful also. A new painter playing with all the colours.
Génial!
Bravo maestro
Après les finalistes du prix Jean-Louis Florentz, voilà que mes suggestions tombent sur l'interprétation d'un titulaire ! Merci Thomas :)
Quel virtuosité! Éblouissant. J'aimerais entendre la version complète jouée par Thomas Ospital!
Gorgeous ! Thank you so much for this wonderful interpretation. Can we have the rest of the symphony ...?
No rests in this symphony. Just notes.
@@AxelChambilyCasadesus Are you intentionally misunderstanding Nigel? I think he was asking Thomas to record the remaining movements of the symphony,
@@Michael_VG yes, but only the rests.
Adorable. Compliments. A performance to remember.
Bravo!!
Excellent!
Magnifique. Je n'ai pas d'autre mot.
Brillant organiste de la nouvelle génération !!
Amazing!
Superbe !!!
This is gold. Period.
Brilliant :)
This organ is stupendous and Thomas knows its possibilities.
Magnifique exécution à la console de tribune ! E
Incroyable. . . !
Mit Abstand die beste Interpretation.
Antoine griezmann fait du piano ??
Wow! Asombrosa interpretación y ejecución 👌

J'ai entendu ces variations des dizaines de fois mais jamais aussi parfaitement jouees
still speechless long after, for many reasons !
