Chère Melissa, je croirais revoir Marie-Claire Alain jouant cette oeuvre magnifique de sons frère. You are a marvellous organist, a wonderbar musician. I listen and love all your videos !!!
Very impressive playing on a very nice instrument! I really appreciate your tempo and style. Thank you for posting this video of one of my favorite organ pieces of all time.
In comparison with Marie-Claire Alain's recordings of "Litanies", my shrunken brain has noticed that in certain parts Melissa Brassard preferred to play slower and/or quieter, which is nice. There's always room for a different approach. --- Not that it matters, but as regards several viewers' reaction towards the costume, I don't think there is any sort of disrespect in the video. On the contrary, a young musician has studied the work of a remarkable composer and come up with a decent rendition. --- Look what the wind blew in. Adorable. ^_^
How fantastic it is! Can I share this by reposting your channel on a nice platform named Gan Jing World? For sure that I will not change anything. If you are fine with that, please let me know. Thank you!
Purrfect performance. Her attire should be copied and made compulsory for all Cathedral organists and liturgical keyboard operatives here in the UK...... Anna Lapwing/wood perhaps??
@@kingsleypwood It will be better. I cannot imagine somebody wearing cat maid cosplay clothes for example in musim mosque. Soo. Church is still church. It need be treated with honor and be respected. Like other special places. If it will be organ in Mall or Concert Hall. Great. You can play naked if you want. But church is still church. Even during concert. And I still cannot connect common things between Litanies of Jehan alain and Cat Maid.
Dear Mrs Brassard, Did you take take time to learn about the composer, his life, his work, the Alain’s familly history before you decide how to disguise yourself. Did you watch at any masterclasses of Marie-Claire Alain sister of Jehan and concert organist on youtube. Do you think she would agree ? would you stand in front of her so dressed to perform ? Can we really turn each situation to be funny ?
What does the Alain family history have to do with it? Alain was killed early on in World War Two, he's probably smiling from the grave to see people playing his music and enjoying themselves besides. Marie Claire Alain is dead, so what she thinks is irrelevant. And yes, given that our world is slogging through the second full year of a deadly pandemic, some levity is always appreciated. Quit spouting malarkey, jack.
@@oliviermoser9788 Perhaps in the name of civility we'll have to agree to disagree. I think that it is just the way of the world that old art is subject to modern improvisations, and not only did she play well, but she is giving people an opportunity to laugh. Times change. Of course, you are just as entitled to your opinion as I am to mine, and I respect that. Cheerio!
Excellent phrasing and great individual character flows through!
Your pedal work is
Very very exciting to watch

Has the lithany something to do with cats??
Purrfect performance. Her attire should be copied and made compulsory for all Cathedral organists and liturgical keyboard operatives here in the UK...... Anna Lapwing/wood perhaps??
@PMS1950 ... If I would have been her, I would rather have chosen a nun´s outfit, like in the film THE NUN ... ;-)
good performance, is the maid outfit to get views?
No you fool she played Litanies to get views, so people could notice the Maid dress after they clicked on the video.
I think she was at some party or something
@@Unknown-bi2pj nah i know the person who was there with her, it was for gags
I hope so.
she has this look like she lost a bet and had to wear that outfit, regardless, she is cute as heck and plays wonderfully!!
Awesome performance and instrument ❤
Organime
why
Melissa, this dress not match with this beatifull music
and?
@@OscarHerrick it does match I don't get the problem.
@@ohnoitsjoe It's sacred music but it is being played by a woman in a costume that suggests some sort of sexual fetish.
@@caulkins69 Exactly. Right on.
@@ohnoitsjoe No, Stained glass windows and the Pantocrator match it.
but please... change outfit...
no, outfit awesome
@@aidanduffield518 this is CHURCH
@@PolishPianoOrgan Considering that this is a church, wouldn't it be disrespectful to ask her to change out of her ceremonial vestments?

Thank you @@hansskovlin2915 That your point of view. The discussion is open, I’ll interested for more input about it.

@@hansskovlin2915 I’wish you all the best for this Advent time, take care of you and you family.
unless you play, dont judge.
This is just awesomeness!
