The most coveted organ in Paris is awarded to a Pole
NewsThe great Cavaillé-Coll organ of the Saint-Sulpice church in Paris has a new ‘titulaire’.
He is Karol Mossakowski, 32, from Katowice, serving until recently at the cathedral in Lille.
He will share the prestigious post with Sophie-Véronique Choplin.
Sounds scatological to me.
Daniel Roth will continue as titular emeritus (playing once a month). With Sophie-Véronique Cauchefer-Choplin and Karol Mossakowski as co-titulars there is a formidable trio of performers and improvisors for the mechanical action Cavaillé-Coll organ.
There are excellent videos of organ performances on Pierre-François Dub-Attenti’s youtube channel.
There are also an two additional organists in charge of the choir organ.
