Vincent Dubois, a renowned organist, presents a captivating album featuring the works of two prominent French composers, Louis Vierne and Marcel Dupré. Recorded on the magnificent A. Cavaillé-Coll organ of the Abbatial St-Etienne de Caen, this album offers a rich and immersive listening experience.
The centerpiece of the album is Vierne's monumental Third Symphony for organ, Op. 28. This five-movement work is a testament to Vierne's compositional prowess and Dubois' virtuosic skill. The symphony unfolds with an Allegro Maestoso of grandeur and power, followed by a lyrical Cantilène, a scherzo-like Intermezzo, a contemplative Adagio, and a triumphant Final.
In addition to Vierne's symphony, Dubois also performs Dupré's Three Preludes and Fugues, Op. 7. These works showcase Dupré's unique voice and Dubois' technical mastery. Each prelude and fugue pair offers a distinct character and mood, from the majestic B Major Prelude and Fugue to the introspective F Minor and G Minor pairs.
With a total duration of 56 minutes, this album is a comprehensive exploration of French organ repertoire. Released on March 1, 2007, by Tempéraments / Radio France, it is a testament to Vincent Dubois' artistry and the enduring appeal of these masterworks. Whether you're an avid organ enthusiast or a newcomer to the instrument, this album is sure to captivate and inspire.
