Complete Organ Works Volume 4 (Urtext edition)-Louis Vierne (1870 1937) raised the Organ symphony to its stylistic zenith. One of his pupils Marcel Dupré was the teacher of Thierry Escaich the co-editor of this complete edition.Vierne s Symphony No.4 is one of the most important works in the Organ repertoire. Until now it was thought to have originated during the three months of summer 1914. However the editor has discovered a letter from Vierne dated 23 June 1914 that disproves any connection with events of war. As a result the work has been chronologically reclassified leading to its fresh assessment and interpretation see the detailed Foreword inthis new edition for further information.The registration of this seminal work in the Organ literature is in parts reminiscent of César Franck s Chorale in B minor. In general terms Franck s influence was already singled out by reviewers of the first performance.Detailed trilingual preface (Fr/Eng/Ger) with a full account of the work s genesis and notes on performance practice.Comprehensive Critical Commentary (Fr/Eng/Ger)New source materialMany illustrations and facsimile pages

French organist and composer Louis Vierne (1870-1937) was a student of César Franck and Charles-Marie Widor and worked as the organist for Notre-Dame de Paris from 1900 until his death, which took place on the organ bench at a recital. He composed many works for organ, among them six organ symphonies and a Messe solennelle for chorus and two organs. His six symphonies express the highs and lows of his personal life, and all are written in minor keys. Vierne's Organ Symphony No. 2, Op. 20, is in E minor. Movements: I. Allegro; II. Choral; III. Scherzo; IV. Cantabile; V. Final.

Loui s Vierne komponierte seine Orchestersymphonie im Sommer 1907 in Juziers. Wie kaum ein zweites Werk zeugt sie von den Schicksalsschlägen des Komponisten: Von Geburt an fast blind musste Vierne nicht nur die Trennung von seiner Frau, sondern auch die Folgen eines schweren Verkehrsunfalles verarbeiten. Der erste Satz zählt mit seinen 600 Takten zu den längsten Sonatenhauptsatzformen, die Vierne jemals schrieb. Das Lamento ist eine der berührendsten musikalischen Äußerungen des Komponisten. Das Scherzo - ein wenig an den Zauberlehrling von Paul Dukas erinnernd - präsentiert sich am Schluss als poesievolles Fugato mit Anklängen an das Hauptthema des Finales. Das Finale wirkt in seinem Optimismus wie ein neuerliches Hinwenden zum Leben - trotz allem. (Thomas Schmögner).

French organist and composer, Marcel Dupré (1886-1971) is also remembered as a significant pedagogue. However, his prominence within the organ repertoire remains absolute with sublime works, including his Passion Symphony. Dupré studied at the Paris Conservatoire with Louis Vierne and Charles-Marie Widor, where he won prizes for piano, organ and fugue, as well as the Grand Prix de Rome. He was a famous organ virtuoso and was able to perform the entire works composed for the instrument by J. S. Bach from memory. Dupré's Op. 23, the Passion Symphony for Organ is made up of four movements depicting the life of Christ; 1) The World awaiting the Saviour, 2) Nativity, 3) Crucifixion, and 4) Resurrection. All of the movements display a high degree of virtuosic technique and musical integrity. Dupré's compositions and didactic works remain important to organists today and his Passion Symphony is no exception.
