11 Grands Préludes et 1 Transcription du Messie de Handel, Op. 66 12 Études pour les Pieds seulement, Nos. 1–6 Benedictus, Op. 54
Kevin Bowyer, organ
In the last three decades the staggeringly original piano music of Charles-Valentin Alkan (1813-88) has emerged from the darkness that had surrounded it over the past century and now it features regularly in the repertoire of some of today’s best young pianists. But Alkan’s organ music – no less powerful and imaginative – has yet to become known, even to a specialist public. This is the first of three CDs presenting all of Alkan’s unrecorded music for organ.
