A video about the large organ at La Madeleine in Paris

10/25/2013

As many of you know, last week I traveled to Paris to play a concert at La Madeleine church on the choir organ. After the concert, I asked my friend Pierre Zevort, the organist from Dourdan to translate a few words about the history of the main organ which stands on the balcony in the back of the church.

So today, I'm sharing with you this video. I hope you will appreciate Pierre's translation also because you will see the original French text on the screen as well.
