(talking about his first time listening to an organ, at 15:)
"I was here, on this organ's loft. I saw the organist and I was very impressed. I thought that there were much more possibilities than with a piano. Even though I find a piano magnificent, this is just a whole new world."

14. SOUNDBITE: (French) Philippe Lefebvre, Organist, Notre Dame Cathedral:
"We improvise. It is a big tradition in French organ school, for centuries. Since music sheets didn't exist at the early stages of the organs. So organists were improvisers primarily. And this tradition went on, in Europe and particularly in France."

18. SOUNDBITE: (French) Philippe Lefebvre, Organist, Notre Dame Cathedral:
"Notre Dame is different because it is one of the only organs that has kept the traces of the centuries. As has the cathedral itself. So we have some tones from before the Revolution, some from the 19th century similar to ones of a symphonic orchestra and also all the recent inputs from the 20th century. So we have three or four authentic centuries of music."

22. SOUNDBITE: (French) Philippe Lefebvre, Organist, Notre Dame Cathedral:
"This particular organ was always looked after by the cathedral and more recently by the French state. Every thirty years this organ was restored, in order to keep its good condition but also to add some improvements and some newer tones. And these tones are made for Notre Dame Cathedral's acoustics. He is in total harmony with Notre Dame Cathedral's acoustics. He rings out the walls of the cathedral."

24. High shot of visitors inside cathedral, AUDIO: organ music
25. SOUNDBITE: (French) Philippe Lefebvre, Organist, Notre Dame Cathedral:
"Here in Notre Dame when you play a tone, the acoustics make the resonance last for eight to nine seconds. It is exceptional, the sound spreads across the whole structure and you feel it when you play, the sounds come back at you. It doesn't just stop immediately. It provokes sensations for the organist."
