Footage of Marcel Dupré playing at St-Sulpice!

KoKo the Clown? Well then, that would be an honor coming from you

Read the libretto of The Mikado, in particular where Pitti Sing, Ko Ko and Pooh Bah are about to be beheaded:

KO. Well, a nice mess you've got us into, with your nodding
head and the deference due to a man of pedigree!
POOH. Merely corroborative detail, intended to give
artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing
narrative.
PITTI. Corroborative detail indeed! Corroborative
fiddlestick!
KO. And you're just as bad as he is with your cock--
and-a-bull stories about catching his eye and his whistling an
air. But that's so like you! You must put in your oar!

Aloha CT64,

Doggone It! There's that G&S again...

Tbph, I probably feel as cool about G&S as you do about Jazz.

Yes, I'll read the Mikado libretto....

Now it says the video has "been removed by the user". Damn!

[Krummhorn]

. . . It is also clear now where these videos come from, namely a DVD that has just been published by the Association des Amis de l'Art de Marcel Dupré (though there appears nothing yet on their Web site).

Now it says the video has "been removed by the user". Damn!

Apparently the Association des Amis de l'Art de Marcel Dupré had them removed for copyright reasons. Too bad though ... guess we will have to purchase the DVD to see them now

[Corno Dolce]

Oh well, it was nice to have *sampled* them while they were up. Yep, I'll get the DVD - whenever AAMD gets around to putting it up on their website <8-|
Probably have to wait until Doomsday's morning....

Apparently the Association des Amis de l'Art de Marcel Dupré had them removed for copyright reasons.

If that is the reason for the disappearence, it would in my view be silly on their part, since there are probably more people who know about the videos' existence through Youtube than though their own hopelessly outdated 19th-century-ish methods of advertising (heck, they don't even talk about the DVD on their web site ).

[Corno Dolce]

Aloha acc,

Yeah, YouTube got them more customers for free than their enfeebled *marketing* strategies.

Cheers,

CD

[Krummhorn]

Bingo, CD ... you got that right

All I can get is "We're sorry, this video is no longer available". Sometimes wonder just who makes these decisions, and why they can't leave well enough alone.
