What, yet another creative way to spell Tchaikovsky. I wish someone would play like this in my church…

Molto brava!!

🥰🥰🥰

What an amazing organist! 😊

Ein toller Organist!😊

Rest in peace, my world-class organ Master. I miss you 😥

Happy! Thank you for that feel!!!!!

Great Scott!

Is this meant to be funny or does he take us all for fools?

Jean Guillou without a doubt among the ranks of very best. He's within the top 3 of the most talented organists that I've heard within the last 70 years. Truly prodigious (authoritative)

I love the impish expression on his face after he plays the last chord!

Keepin' it on the one. Very nice.

Manifico😊

Rest in piece legend

Does anyone else notice how "unusual" these melodic passages are by which Msr. Guillou demonstrates the various voices of the organ? Perhaps I should further clarify by saying "unusual to the North American ear". None of these passages are what one would call "happy". There's a noticeable, repetitive pattern here. There are no soft, soothing, lullaby-ish passages. No! On the contrary, each short melodic demonstration begins with an arpeggiation in some scale type that is very different sounding to my ears. (none in a traditional major or minor progression) The sequence of the notes seem to follow some angular and contracting melodic sequence that when it reaches the top -- abruptly bumps down by a half step or to a note not not harmonious with the previous arpeggiation -- but where the last note is in a most sour contrast (almost creepy one might say) with its preceding note(s). Truly this man's "harmonic idiom" as one might call it -- is "out there". One might think of it as being the polar opposite of the harmonies of Maurice Durufle. This is not to say they are in any way to be considered "bad", only that they are strikingly unusual. I know of no other French organist or composer who uses such dark and angular harmony. I wish I were better able to use technical terms to describe what I'm wishing to convey but , please forgive me, I do not have the terms. When Msr. Guillou begins the improvisation -- we see his rhythms, which we might describe as choppy, irregular, staccato -- seeming as it were to jump from one scary and dramatic place to another as if it might be the sound track for a horror movie. Again, not wishing to cast dispersion upon his talent or style; but one must admit this music is not for children's ears. It seems to manifest a struggle of (or for) power and perhaps epic conquest -- perhaps the great contrast between good and evil, in which Msr. Guillou does not hesitate to lean towards the "darker side" of the struggle -- with all the excitement which can be mustered to the cause. Never boring. If find it ironic that when he speaks, he seems such a gentle, retiring, and sweet soul -- whereas his music opens a dark world of conquest and contrast. He will be missed. There is none like him. May he rest in peace.

Mitici!

may you Rest in Peace.

Charlie 0 opened my ears to Jean Guillou. Merci.

Grande Ada. Splendida timbrica e presenza sonora. Ottima solista, non una nota di troppo, tutto splendidamente misurato con grande gusto ed equilibrio.👏👏👏

Togli le melodie complesse di Stravinskij, Prokofiev o Berg… aggiungi un po’ di strutturalismo d’avanguardia del ‘900 … strizza l’occhio al minimalismo… togli ogni parte ritmica evidente, rompi e nascondi il ritmo…offriti solo all’atmosfera … e il gioco lo avete fatto. È così che fate, vero ? Sì. Che fate ? Rilanciate il neo paganesimo ? Posso capirvi. Per quello però c’è la musica da film. Comunque bello. Bisognerà sentirsi con Capogrosso. ruclips.net/video/OemOmjZxxQ0/видео.html

Organiste virtuose, Jean Guillou nous fait découvrir toutes les richesses de ces grandes orgues Van den Heuvel.

🤔🤔🤔

Greatest version I have ever heard of Over the Rainbow. Move over Stan Getz.

Ada, you are the best!

Yet another talent introduced to me through the gift of RUclips - Ada Rovatti. You lucky man, Rndy Brecker!

RIP Jean Guillou, amazing organist and lovely friend

che grande maestro, spero di poter studiare con lei un giorno senza dover scappare in un altro paese per trovare un insegnante di questo livello

Il mio interprete preferito di questa fantasia ❤

Où en est l'orgue à structures variables, tel que le concevait Jean Guillou ?

That organ has got some serious bass,bravo.

fantastici !!! veramente unici !!

Espressivo, equilibrato, armonico, narrativo.... non sono un critico musicale ma amo la musica e .....questo pezzo l'ho immediatamente sentito due volte di seguito , come mi capita per i nuovi brani musicali che mi colpiscono. Complimenti al compositore ed agli esecutori incluso il Direttore.

His music is his legacy. What an awesome piece of music and performance 👏👏👏!

Top music . Bravissimi

Fantastico

Bravo!!!!

Thank you for posting Jean Guillou playing “ Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy”. What a genius! Now, here in Canada, we haveour own brilliant oraganist, Xaver Varnus who learned from Paul Gillou.

Horrible. Has he even heard the original?

Bravissime
