Widor Organ Symphony #6 - Behold the Power
10 years ago
General
MatthiasRat here!Charles Marie Widor is bet known for his Organ Symphonies (the most frequently played is the finale to his Fifth which is a fiendishly difficult romp that sounds like nothing more than boys at play). But the composition of his that most captures the power and grandeur of the Organ is his Sixth Organ Symphony. The first movement alone will raise any roof; I had the privilege of seeing a live performance of this work and was utterly blown away ; my very bones rattled with its might! So sit back and hold on tight as Widor shows us just what a Grand Organ can do!

I suppose you are familiar with both Vierne and Langlais. I confess I know the former more for his orchestral and chamber works, but everything I've heard is fantastic.
