Tournemire l'Orgue Mystique - Noël - 5 - Paraphrase

Charles Tournemire's huge cycle L'Orgue Mystique (written 1927-1932) is a collection of two hundred and fifty-three works for the liturgical calendar of the Catholic church as it was in his time as Organiste Titulaire of the church of St Clothilde in Paris, from 1898 to his death in 1939 (his predecessors were Gabriel Pierné and César Franck; amongst his successors was Jean Langlais). They are all based on the Gregorian chant for the day. This piece, from the Cycle de Noël, is the Paraphrase for the end of Mass at Christmas. Performed by Georges Delvallée on the 1880 Cavaillé-Coll organ (4/61, 72 ranks) in the Cathedral of Saint-Croix, Orléans.

Wonderbaarlijke mystiek.
Zou de geest van Charles Tournemire in direct contact met GOD hebben gestaan?
Ik sluit het niet uit❤❤❤
