Used to play this in college when I switched from piano to organ. A lifelong pleasure to be an organist. Retired after 80years on keyboards, started at age 4 on piano. Mom & dad were musicians...

The fact you're playing this without a sheet shows your amazing talent.

The ability to manage a mechanical stop action in this performance without assistants is key. My observation is that most assistants require marked-up music in front of them to pull stops accurately. Those who can do it from memory would rather be the organist in the spotlight.

Yes, absolutely. First rate in every respect: organ, registration, tempo, dynamics, and interpretation. The building toward a climactic ending in the fourth movement is fantastic, and he does it on a mechanical stop action without assistants.

I am so emotional right now as I played this for my senior recital when I was in my late 50s. My Mom was my inspiration and she died a month ago. She loved this piece and now I love hearing you play it. I am now 71 and miss the organ so much. I still study and teach piano but I miss being an organist. I played on a beautiful organ as you are playing. Boellmann is my favorite: Maybe its because we share the same birthday. Thank you so much and you have such a gift!

Oh my! We have a lot in common. I also had a bike accident with fractured wrist and jaw. Kept me out of the loop for a while. Also I am studying piano with a teacher from Switzerland but is here with a doctorate from UMKC, Dr. Boccard. Anyway I hopr you heal quickly and I thank you for your encouragement and strength, I wish the same for you. I have moved away from my hometown due to marriage and no longer have access to an organ. I am concentrating on piano. Thank you and I wish you the very best.

Superbe interprétation et excellente exploitation des grandes possibilités expressives de cet instrument. Bravo et merci !

I really enjoyed this. I can only imagine that even after years of practice and hard work, and many performances that an organist of your quality is still completely given over to the music. It is a real privilege to hear you play.

Remarquable interprétation, notamment de la toccata. Cela m'a rappelé un très cher ami poète et musicien décédé il y a 30 ans, Jean-Marie Olingue, qui aimait Boëllmann et Widor.

His registration is so interesting. He has a unique style and flare to this composition that sepera all his tes him from the usual predictable organist.

POWER! That’s the first word that comes to mind when hearing this beautifully-performed suite...and that power isn’t just in the FF sections, but also with the more delicate registrations chosen for the contrasting sections of the second movement and especially the third. This performance is sensitive to all the contrasts the score calls for. And, of course, this organ is simply amazing.

That's pure Cavaillé-Coll. There's a latent power there, even in the ppp sections, that unmatched by any other organ builder.

Brillante interprétation Jean-Baptiste. Boëllmann est aussi magnifiquement servi par le puissant Cavaillé-Coll de Saint-Sernin ! Merci.

Astonishing performance! Thank you so much! And, of course, splendid quality of record, it was really challenging to find this suite with crystal clear sound. Now I’m enjoying this masterpiece from time to time

Bravo, superbe interprétation! Les Bombardes de cet instrument sont très impressionnantes pour dire le moindre.

One of my favourite versions of one of my favourite organ pieces :-) Merci beaucoup!

Magnifique exécution, un régal !

So perfect . You are an amazing organist . With perfect interpretation of the music . Thank you .

Superb playing from memory. Thank you!

Bravo! Thoroughly enjoyed your performance of that classic piece of organ music on a fine sounding instrument. The tempo was just perfect, not rushed. A favourite with empathy to all the different nuances of the four movements. Thank you 👏

Bravo! Brilliant performance on a magnificent instrument! I really enjoyed it. Thanks for posting this!

This brings back fond memories of my senior organ recital at East Tennessee State University. Played the suite from memory on my a small reproduction pipe organ.

Simply masterful. Exquisite interpretation, registration, and flawless performance. Bravo!

Bravo Jean, Fine instrument for sure and an equally fine instrumentalist !!! Merci !

Veel mooie herinneringen aan deze schitterende 'Suite Gothique' Ontroerd om dit werk nogmaals te horen! Perfecte orgelist! Prachtige, zuivere hulde aan Onze Lieve Vrouw! Dankbaar!!!

I loved your execution of this piece, some organists tend to shorten too much the final chords and this takes out so much greatness to this piece and to the organ sound. Also very good registration, thanks for this.

De très bonnes versions j'en ai écoutées, mais celle-ci est particulièrement réussie (sous tous les rapports : esprit, équilibrage, registration, tempi, prise de son) Un très grand bravo - et un super-merci !

Je n'avais jamais entendu la toccata jouée avec un mi au lieu d'un mi bémol dans un passage de phrase principale du pédalier. Je trouve ça beaucoup plus riche et agréablement surprenant.

À mon avis c'est une des meilleures versions que j'aie pu entendre. À tous points de vue. Bravo 👏👏👏

And that this organ is up at one of my most favourites on the world along with saint Ouen in Rouen.
