MP3 (Lame) VBR-245 V0. 107mb   Performances range from the flawless to the impassioned in these triumphant - and occasionally reflective - works Franz Hauk, ever-resourceful organist of Ingolstadt Minster, has been dredging the libraries and publishers' back-catalogues to unearth repertoire for organ and orchestra beyond the usual diet of Poulenc Concerto and Saint-Saлns Symphony. Whether everything on this lavishly packaged pair of discs can realistically be described as 'Triumphal' is a moot point. Saint-Saлns' charming Sйrйnade (a gorgeous quartet for...

MP3 (Lame) VBR245 V0. 110mb  Imposing sonic creations make full use of the organ's cavalcade of sounds and colors. Our soloists caress these winsome and fluid French late Romantic pieces. The melodies are sweetly fragrant and the clouds of harmonies, touched with a silvery sheen, expand in the reverberant atmosphere. You could float away on them. Guilmant's Symphony is glorious--the heavens just open up! Hauk and his Ingolstadt organ match the orchestra wave after thrilling wave, contrasted with moments of arching, spinning, mellifluous tunes...Ful...

MP3 (Lame) VBR245 V0. 108mb American Record Guide July/August 00  Page 210/211  This fascinating collection of little-known pieces for organ and orchestra was recorded in Liebfrauenmьnster Ingolstadt in 1998, using the 4 – 100+ Klais organ. The Widor work was commissioned to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Villis Organ in Prince Albert Hall. Insteda of writing something new, Widor arranged two movements from his Symphony 6 and a slow, middle movement from Symphony 2. While this might strike some as an easy way out, the result is quite satisfactory. The openi...

MP3 (Lame) VBR245 V0. 118mb This release is noteworthy both for its enlightening Choke of virtually unknown repertoire and for the enthusiastic and elegantly vervy performances offered by Franz Hauk and the Georgian Chamber Orchestra under Markus Poschner. To the best of my knowledge, this is the only recording extant of the Paer and Schneider concertos and of the two Langlais pieces. In any event, all the music an this offering receives fine advocacy ...   Read more On this CD: 01. Ferdinando Paer (1771-1839): Concerto for Organ and Orchestra ...

Guilmant was like many of his contemporaries a versatile musician, who maintained close ties with other composers of his generation. In 1871 Guilmant became organist at the church of St Triniti in Paris, and in 1894 he founded the Schola Cantorum together with Vincent d’Indy. Joseph Bonnet and Marcel Dupre were among his students... ...In 1871 Leon Boellmann entered the Paris Ecole de musique classique et religieuse, the so-called Ecole Niedermeyer. Favourably supported by Gustave Lefиvre, the director of the school, and ...

While first studying at the Conservatoire of his hometown Liиge, he developed his gift for organ improvisations early in life.

In Munich, he was introduced to the operas of Richard Wagner. Further stop overs were Vienna and Rome. In Paris (1899), he became friends with Vincent d’Indy and...
