(Volume 2)


Pierre Grandmaison, Orgue Casavant, Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal

ACD2 2574

These works were recorded in Montréal's Notre-Dame Basilica on the magnificent Casavant organ, which has been played by all the great 20th-century French organists.   The Notre-Dame instrument was the first 4-manual (81 stops) Casavant organ, and the largest in Canada at the time of its installation in 1891.   A must-have recording for all organ music enthusiasts!
