Cavaille Coll & Mozart...
... an incredible wedding!
In the magnificent Basilica of St Sernin built in 1096 A.D.
Hence..... a threesome!
I started enjoying pipe organ music at age 9. I am now 72 and have further enjoyed pipe organ playing in many countries. Never have I heard anything like the Jean-Baptiste Dupont playing this piece on this organ!! The "marriage" of the organ's power, color and voicing with the virtuosity of the organist plus the music are, in my experience, unexcelled in the world.
I'm with you there Mr!!!!👍👍
I STILL can't believe this piece was written primarily for a musical clock! What a clock THAT must've been! LOL!
@@Henr-sx4jyWell obviously it was played on an organ here, but Mozart's piece was originally intended to be played on a musical clock. However it does work very well transcribed to the organ
The first time I ever heard this was for piano duet and I knew there was something special about it. Hearing it played on the organ brings out the true magnificence of this music.
Played on this organ, especially. I have no idea what it even sounded like on a Baroque instrument. Those are not that subtle lol
Mozart: "I detest this form of composition. I must compel myself to finish it, but I take frequent breaks as I am bored." (he really says this in his letter)
Clockmaster who bought the work: "Music of the most sublime, referencing the deepest longing to heaven. The fugue is genius, the tragic opening returns us to the suffering of mankind..."
You just never know what musicians are REALLY thinking LOL
Wtf, where did you read that? And why was Mozart bored?

It’s in here.
You know, Liszt really didn´t like many of his early works in his late years. But MAN, how glad, he wrote them after all. May be quite the same with Mozart and the organ
Mozart may have been fed up at having to write music for the mechanical clock rather than a proper organ. Fortunately, with his genius, it sounds brilliant when transcribed to a real organ. Paradoxically, he called the organ "The king of instruments" yet never wrote any music directly for a full-size organ.
I absolutely love at 2:28 Dupont adds the Carillon III mixture in the crescendo to simulate bells possibly referencing the fact this piece was originally writren for a mechanical bell instrument
It is well known that the mechanical instrument that it was written for had small pipes set within a clock, as described by Mozart in a letter to his wife, which he complained were 'too shrill and childish' for his taste.
Wirklich ist das eine grosse Interpretation. sehr gut für dich.
This is the best performance of this piece I have yet heard
no,Simon Preston was best,you listen ,Westminster Abbey organ
@@charlottewhyte9804 to each their own
That's because you haven't heard me play it on my Eminee chord organ!
@@palref oh boy... Haha
@@charlottewhyte9804 In your opinion for what is worth chuck.
If I didn't know this was Mozart, and I've often just halfway slept through a bunch of organ works on RUclips on my way to this without looking, I'd think this was another French romantic piece from about 70 years LATER.
Can't call it Baroque, even though it's of that era. This is well ahead of its time.
The organs to play it properly with didn't even exist yet!
I can hear some hints of "romanticism," but it sounds very much like Mozart to me and quite baroque.
@@TurtleFL If this is ahead of its time, then what do we make of Bach's Fantasia and Fugue BWV542? One always reminds me of the other.
I have to agree with DEV333 - at first glance, an unsuitable instrument, but WHAT a performance - I've never heard better. And it works brilliantly on a C-C too!!!
Thrilling!! Each time I listen to one of your performances - I am often overwhelmed and moved to tears! Simply amazing!!
Mr Dupont...you are a true organ-hero!!! I love it!!🤗🥰
The best performance of this masterpiece I ever heard! Well done and thank you Mr.Dupont also for other fantastic videos!
Note perfect Sir. Beautiful playing. Thank you so much!
8:59 always gives me chills
Though this pipe organ may not be as complex as others out there,i just love the beautiful sound it produces,I wish you could always perform on this organ. I don't know may be the recording technique!
But as always the performance is magnificent.
La première fois que j'ai entendu cette pièce c'était par le grand maître en la personne d'Olivier Latry. Je dois dire que cette interprétation est pourtant extrêmement loin de me laisser indifférent, chapeau
Croyez-vous que ce soit par pur hasard que Jean-Baptiste Dupont ait succédé à Christian Robert à la prestigieuse console de la primatiale Saint-André de Bordeaux?! ;)
Bien sûr que non, je n'en reste pas moins plus qu'agréablement surpris de le découvrir ainsi ;)
Magnifique interprétation où le choix des jeux fait ressortir la puissance et la limpidité du Cavaillé-Coll !
Il faut absolument écouter, aussi, le K608 interprété par le grand Pierre Cochereau sur le Cavaillé-Coll de Notre-Dame de Paris en 1968 . C'est à mon avis l'enregistrement qui fait "La Référence". (Philips Classics 442 473-2)
Magnifique, merci M. Dupont !
Quel plaisir de pouvoir entendre cet orgue aussi bien joué... Je l'ai joué toute une soirée grâce à monsieur Bouvard, et je suis forcé d'avouer que c'est le plus beau Cavaillé-Coll que j'ai joué... A très bientôt... Vous m'avez donné envie de me plonger dans ce Mozart, rien que pour la jouer à Saint Sernin.. Merci et Félicitations !
E. Power Biggs had a great album of this work and more, that he had recorded at the great Muller organ of St. Bavo's in Haarlem, Holland in 1966.
He is fantastic!
Interpretation formidable. Bravo!
Général de Gaulle
Tremendous performance
I am a great organ-listener! But i must tell you that i look for many pieces on internet...and when i find something i like...i always go to your page to see if you have played it. Because..only then i get the exact and the true version! You are one of the real Kings at the queen!!!!🤗🙏🙏❤️
Mozart would love this version:
I have now made up my mind to compose at once the Adagio for the clockmaker and then to slip a few ducats into the hand of my dear wife. And this I have done; but as it is a kind of composition which I detest, I have unfortunately not been able to finish it. I compose a bit of it every day--but I have to break off now and then, as I get bored. And indeed I would give the whole thing up, if I had not such an important reason to go on with it. But I still hope that I shall be able to force myself gradually to finish it. If it were for a large clock and would sound like an organ, then I might get some fun out of it. But, as it is, the works [of the instrument] consist solely of shrill little pipes, which sound too high-pitched and too childish for my taste.
Thank goodness that he wrote it in a way that truly could be adapted for a real organ so that we can hear what he had in his mind's eye. I wonder if he ever had the chance to play or hear it on a proper organ.
only performance of this mozart i actually like and can hear the inner notes clearly
Super
BRAVO !!!!
The fugue is really hard!
The recapitulation is insanely difficult. One wonders how it is possible for a non-baroque composer to write such a monumental work, a masterclass of counterpoint and fugue.
Yet, the answer is obvious: Wolfang Amadeus Mozart.
Mozart is actually underrated, I mean it, especially concerning counterpoint, fugue and this kind of things. Real Mozart lovers know these lesser-known pieces, not the others. His sacred music is vastly unknown/overlooked too, all the 18 masses and many other pieces (the Requiem is something else, and not my favorite mass at all)...He said in a letter that this was his favorite genre.
muy bueno, exelente BRAVOOO!!!!!
Studied this piece from someone who did her doctoral thesis on the organ works of Mozart at the University of Berlin.
You did everything she taught. A+. It also sounds like you have the corrected edition, as some are full of editorial mistakes.
P.E. Gottrocks did Mozart write a lot of music for the organ? I was even surprised to find out that Liszt had as well.
No, very little.
P.E. Gottrocks
Is there a particular organ piece by Mozart you could recommend, apart from the one above? Much thanks.
Why don't you try the Fantasia for Mechanical organ ,K608, and Adagio and allegro for Mechanical Organ, K594
Ouverture Intrada & Fugue in C is nice too
Wow!
Came here again after 4 years, still wow!
que c'est merveilleux !!!!
Génial!!!
Thank you, Jean-Baptiste! Et mercis, n'est pas! Puis-je vous demander, quelle edition utilise vous? (excusez-moi! Je ne trouve pas les accents!)
Magnifique, vraiment ! Bravo.
Masterpiece. A tragic, don giovannesque aura, for what seems to be an overture of a missed opera. the gallant, almost pastoral parts, refer to distant memories, almost of regret ... before a sudden return to destiny, reality, duty. Wolfgang why did you write so little for organ?
love it thanks!
Браво
bravo
De quelle transcription s'agit-il ?
How does he manage to play this without an army of page turners stop pullers even someone managing
the expression pedal for him.
The answer to your question is quite simple...he is a master and only continues to excel!
Can't beat a C. C.
For concert's 1° toccata Durufle' 2° Litanies of Alain
3° Final of Widor ( from 1° sinf.) 4 °Carillon of Westminster 5° Num komm der Heiden Heiland of J.S.Bach 6° Preludio e fuga su B.A.C.H
of List 7° Sortie, Grand Choer of Camillo Flaim . The
others great compositions for organ are for exams and concours.
Please, let me tune that organ. I beg you.
It’s a French organ...it’s supposed to sound like that!
Basilique Saint Sernin in Toulouse,south of France.One of the greatest Cavaillé_Coll.
Alan - please stop yourself for a moment! There is nothing wrong with this organ and it must be your hearing. For those of us with absolute pitch, there is no issue!
