Widor: Toccata, revised new version with Organteq 2
Using Baroque Church Crescendo and stops preset 9
Immerse yourself in a blast from the past as Organteqenthusiast brings back the magic of Charles Marie Widor's best-known piece for organ, Toccata from V Symphony Op. 42 No.1 with his unique version created with Organteq 2 in Garageband, Mac mini late -14. I think this is not just a piece of music but a revival of French Romantic organ music.
Often played at wedding ceremonies.
Many organists play this too fast. Widor didn’t like to hear it fast. I listened to his more slow own playing from1932, and tried to get about that tempo.
Everyone should listen to this. What an experience. And the arguments about tempo will probably never end. I like this speed so you can hear more of the music.
NOTICE:
Some of you have listened to my old version with Organteq 1 2021, but this is the new, updated version with Organteq 2, remake.
Enjoy the fantastic Organteq 2.
All the best, everyone
