Cochereau: 2 Improvised Symphonies for Organ |

Presentation
Cochereau was a great symphonist, and it is well known that a symphony was often his preferred musical form for extended improvisations in concert [...] And yet, despite the fact that his recorded legacy is huge, this particular form is singularly underrepresented on the many albums of his improvisations available previously […] Up to now his discography has not included an extended work comparable in scale to a symphony by, for example, Vierne. The present album supplies that deficiency by presenting two extended symphonies from what might be considered Cochereau’s greatest period at Notre-Dame.
