? Louis Vierne (1870-1937), having been taught by César Franck and Widor,
became a famous organist. His most important post was that of the Notre
Dame in Paris, where he was celebrated for his improvisations. As a
composer indulged in the post-Wagnerian language of his era: highly
complicated counterpoint, dense, chromatic harmonies and an exalted,
spiritual atmosphere characterise his works.
? This new recording presents his magnificent Piano Quintet, a monumental
work (of the same proportions and scope as Cesar Franck`s piano quintet)
suffused with an overwhelming emotional intensity, caused by the sudden
death of the composer`s child.
? The song cycle "Spléens et et détresses" on poems by Verlaine breathe a
mixture of mystical emotion and sensual ardour.
? Beautiful performances by mezzo soprano Anaik Morel, the Quatuor
Terpsicordes and the great Lithuanian pianist Muza Rubackyte, who
already recorded successfully a CD with piano music by Louis Vierne (BC
95154), which received 5 stars in Diapason.
