  • Update on July 18, 2020: The news this morning has shaken us all. The organ, for some reason that no one can fathom, appears to have been targeted for destruction. Quel dommage.
    Augustin Barié's Marche. Marie-Thérèse Jehan is the organist on the IV/74/104 Clicquot (1784), restored & enlarged twice since then. Debierre did the first work, in 1933. Not too many years later, the cathedral was severely damaged by (British) bombing during WW II. But it wasn't until 1971, for a multitude of reasons, that the organ was brought back up to full function by Beuchet-Debierre. Then, just a few months later, a fire wrought havoc on the cathedral. The organ is obviously in fine fettle, though, for this recording, made in 1980.

    My relative some years back helped build the cathedrale: St. Felix Seheult in the 1800. (north transept) I had the privilage of playing the organ there back in 2006. It was wonderful! Great job with the pictures

    This opus 7 "Marche", from "Trois Pièces" (of around 1908-10 I believe) is veritably an hommage to Vierne, (althought dedicated to Dupré)and said to be an echo to Vierne's 2nd Symphony Allegro; it is in fact to me maybe the closest to compare piece with Vierne,(as it is possible quite everywhere in Barié to)going for both from this somber anxiety to glory; Mme Jehan therefore rendering this piece with more than satisfaction and emotion.

Nantes: 1619 Jaques Giradet, 1768 Adrien Lépine, 1780-1784 François-Henri Clicquot (V/P/49), Em 1868, a obra foi restaurada e revisada por Merklin-Schütze de Paris. 1933 Beuchet-Debierre, os danos da guerra em 1944 foram reparados por Joseph Beuchet em 1971, destruídos em 2020

    I've got this (well, the whole Trois Pièces) and the Symphonie on CD, on the Lewis at Southwark Cathedral - I'll see if I can get round to videofying(?) and uploading them! Ticking notwithstanding, many thanks for uploading this. The B-D at Nantes really is the most wonderful instrument...

    Thanks for the input. It certainly sounds Vierne-ish doesn't it? I would expect Barié's & Vierne's paths crossed frequently, both being associated with the Institute for the Young Blind -- & with their churches being a stone's throw from each other.

    Pipe organs can be rebuilt.It looks like a Cavaille Coll.I hope the perp gets caught.

    • @a55b47
      @a55b47  4 года назад

      Pipe organs can indeed be rebuilt -- at great expense. An instrument this size (even overlooking its historic nature as the oldest pipe organ in France) will cost at least $3 million to replace. Given the financial struggles of the Church (particularly in France, where church attendance has fallen off a cliff), and given all the other needs of our society, what do you think the likelihood is of that happening? And it's a Cliquot, not a Cavaillé-Coll, as you would know if you had bothered to read the Remarks.

      @@a55b47 Sorry for the mistake. I did not read all the replies. Just as international donations are coming in for the repairs to Notre Dame I think international donations will come in to France to defray the costs of reproducing, as best as possible, the Cliquot organ. The great French cathedrals and the historic organs they house are architectural and musicological treasures that belong not just to France but the whole world.

    My input actually comes from the notes of that recording by Veronique Le Guen on Calliope #cal9935 of 2000 that I again strongly recommend you; where in this Music even more we may hear still the 19th Cent. and his Master Guilmant, but also a certain somber announcement of the New Century with First WW comming; (as we feel obviously in Vierne as well)these two blind men (or almost for Vierne) having had enhanced inspiration and sensibility for composition certainly.

    If you are interested in listening to good audio quality recordings of the amazing sound of the great organ of Nantes Cathedral, you can visit my channel: there's music by Félix Moreau, Johann Sebastian Bach, Max Reger and Bjarne Sløgedal performed by me on that wonderful instrument.
    I had the pleasure to know Madame Marie-Thérèse Jehan: she is a very nice person and a great organist, like Félix Moreau (they are co-titular organists of the Cathedral).
