They played this piece at my friend's funeral. So beautiful. May she rest in peace and may she rest with God forever.

This piece has been a constant friend over the years. Funerals and memorial services, and also as a prelude to a solemn Mass.
Vierne's works have such a magical feel to them... I can't help but be touched by his pieces. Wonderful stuff.
Very true words.
I have always loved this piece, beautifully played, here. The fact that Vierne dedicated it to his daughter indicates what it meant to the composer
i realize I'm kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good website to watch newly released series online?
@Jesus Calvin flixportal :D
@Dwayne Jayce Thanks, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D Appreciate it !!
Complex harmony, I would worry to paint myself into a corner! Genius and So beautiful.
What a deeply moving tune. I feel the sadness in my heart when I hear this.
Sweet sadness all the same? Maybe nostalgia for the crib, one's own or that of a now grown up child.
Beautiful, thank you!
Merci de partager cette belle pièce. Chaque fois que je l'écoute - ou, ben, que je la joue - je me trouve dans un autre monde de joie et clarité, où les étoilles me racontent des histoires insensées et le vent me chante doucement les chansons des années passées, avec la voix d'une ange éternelle.
Merci mille fois. J'ôte mon chapeau.
When I play it in my mind I return in those years and I catch all the mildness of this chef d'ouvre.
We could all use this piece as something to remember Notre' Dame by since Louis Vierne spent lots of hours there and wouldn't be a bit surprised if he used the Cavielle Col organ to put this grand piece together with.
So nice, this morning I've started learning to play it 😊.
I simply don't pay piano, but this is a song I would genuinely memorize and learn to play (relatively easy too). The only other song that has elicited this response is César Franck's Prélude, fugue et variation... so I get your meaning.
Such a wonderful moving piece
Ein ganz persönliches Stück des Meisters, seiner Tochter gewidmet. Sehr schön!
Beautiful
This is absolutely breautiful on the organ ;___;
what an organ sound! Amazing French organs!
Beautiful music of by Vierne. Many thanks for your sharing.
I keep returning to this piece.
One of the pieces chosen by Prince Philip at his funeral.
It must have been played prior to the arrival of his casket while the mourners waited in the church.
@@Schattengewaechs99 Actually, the Order of Service for the Funeral of Prince Philip is only for the music played inside the chapel. Aside from all the marches of the different bands moving into position into the quadrangle, the first piece played by the combined band was I Vow to Thee My Country. The other pieces played were Supreme Sacrifice, Jerusalem, Isle of Beauty and Nimrod

Superb!
This lovely piece inspired my writing style.
Beautiful piece.
Sums it up for me ,the race is run ,just reflect on how beautiful it has been
Speechless 👍
It is not to fast, it is a perfect piece of organ music, great!!
Fractionally slower than the metronome mark
Merci beaucoup !
Perfeitoooooo
@Michniczek : I played it according to the tempo indication. But I usually do play it slower.
I agree. It's supposed to be a lullabye, i.e. unhurried, so it should about a minute longer than here.
charming
I think Vierne dedicated this work to E. M Skinner. who had small children at that time.
@75JamesB : Merci beaucoup ! Je suis très heureux !
I thank you for your most kind words!
Nice piece
@mrSymphonic The timing was good. This is fast enough to make the piece move along, but slow enough to be smooth and leisurely. I don't know what other words to use.
I like how you stayed true to the tempo marking instead of slowing it down. It gives the piece a certain frankness that works really well I think. Slowing it down would be too romantic. However you’re rushing through a lot of the meters - it’s 2/4 it really shouldn’t be that hard to stay in time
I know it’s been two years, but if you’re still there, can you explain why slower would be “too romantic?” Isn’t this romantic music? I personally think this is a little fast for a lullaby. When a beautiful meditative piece like this is played too metrically, there’s no time and space to savor certain harmonies. I’m performing this work right now, and I purposely take more time (while still keeping a general tempo) to bring certain moments out. Playing this style of music too metrically does not achieve true sensitive playing.
@Alexandrosama : C'est ça. Et l'interprète, c'est moi !
@shishirth : One of my personal favorites.
this will be my brother
@75JamesB : Ah oui ? Eh bien, ils sont tous les deux Cavaillé-Coll.
For once, I am able to say that the Cavaillé-Coll sound and the church's acoustic are faithfully represented (I generally do not like Hauptwerk), I wonder why the organist does not observe the phrase marks of the composer? The piece needs to ... "breathe".
I believe I was heavily influenced by Philippe Delacour's interpretation of it, on the real Notre-Dame de Metz organ. He did the very same thing, one single phrase, interrupted only by rests and manual changes. Though contrary to composer's indications (intentions), this treatment, or version, does not necessarily diminish the beauty of the composition.
I would need stronger reasons than wanting to reproduce someone else's interpretation if ever I were tempted to change the composer's indications or modify his intentions !
I don't want to hear Von Karajan's Beethoven, however beautiful, I want to hear - as nearly as it is possible to do so - Beethoven's Beethoven.
Your approach may possibly explain another comment, "zu metrisch".
JSC 1401 Indeed. Especially changing the work of one as great as Vierne. I'll never understand why so many seem to prefer Widor since Vierne seems by far the greater musician and organist in terms of quality and musicality. Widor may be flashier and more of a showman, e.g. the 5th symphonie's famous Toccata, but I can and do listen to Vierne's Six Symphonies for HOURS without tiring, unlike Widor's of which I tire more quickly.
@@JSC1401 Being convinced by someone's interpretation of a work is an excellent reason to play it that way. I do not see this performance as departing in any significant way from the score.
@@mrSymphonic So it's OK not to respect a composer's phrasing, just because another disrespectful organist decides that he knows better than the composer.
LV did indeed write "à ma fille Collette" at the top of the score. He also wrote "sur les paroles classiques". Have you researched the traditional words of the lullaby that influenced LV's composition?
Didn't he also indicate Péd 16 + 8? Another indication on the score that you choose to ignore.
Lastly, you play at a tempo slower than marked in the score, but do not have even the excuse of an acoustic more resonnant than that of N-D de Paris.
These choices are not without significance, as Simon Lawford would have us believe.
I like it at 2x speed
That was so beautiful. Where can I get the score?
imslp.org
super play
What about the phrase marks?
Beautiful! Except for the great César Franck I'm not a great fan of French Romantic symphonic organ like of German Romantic like Reger (some) & Karg-Elert. I agree with Robert Noehren's comments on especially Reger that German Romantic organ music sounds far better & more alive on German Baroque instruments. Also French (but not German) modern, & German (but not French) Baroque, but this is one of the few pieces of Vierne I just LOVE & even can play myself! Your interpretation's just wonderful.
I'd love to know the registrations you use!
D'après les tags, elle est jouée sur un instrument hauptwerk d'après l'orgue de la cathédrale notre dame de Metz, n'est ce pas ? Mais qui est l'interprète ?
How slowly would you rock a cradle?
Quel organiste le faits
Zu metrisch!!!
not bad
Sounds like a electronic organ played by a robot
I don't find it at all robotic.
