An exquisite and outstanding ... release: Aeolus's edition "Jeanne Demessieux - Complete Organ Works" JAV is proud to distribute this box set of 3 CDs in the United States.
It has been a long way from the first ideas and discussions back in 2002 between Stephen Tharp and Christoph Frommen at Aelous until the final result now! Two outstanding instruments were chosen for this project. For the Etudes op.6 it was clear that a big symphonic instrument with electric (or electro-pneumatic) action and 61/32 keys in a good acoustic was needed. The organ of Saint-Martin in Dudelange seemed an ideal instrument for this repertoire, with it's symphonic sound and a set of powerful chamades. Whatever you need in terms of registrations for this music, you'll find it in this organ. Using the Aristide Cavaille-Coll organ of Saint-Ouen in Rouen for the second SACD was somehow logical: Jeanne Demessieux played this instrument very often and appreciated it a lot. It was here that she premiered her "Repons pour le Temps de Paques".
Finally, it was only in early 2006 that Stephen got copies of the at that time still unpublished compositions! So, we really offer you her complete organ music in one box. And of course, all these recordings were made in 2-channel stereo and 5-channel surround sound.
As the program for disc two (recorded in Rouen) was too long for a standard CD (but not for an SACD),"Repons pour le Temps Liturgiques" was put on a separate Bonus-CD, which contains in addition a historic recording of her "Poeme" op.9 for organ and orchestra, recorded in 1952 by Radio France in the Salle Pleyel, with Jeanne Demessieux herself at the organ (Cavaille-Coll, 1930) and the Orchestre Radio Symphonique de Paris under Eugene Bigot, a unique document. Stephen Tharp is an immense musician and one of the leading concert organists of our time.
