The Saint-Sulpice Church in Paris is home to one of the world's most famous organs: the largest instrument ever designed by Aristide Cavaillé-Coll. The list of titulaires who have worked there includes such well-known composers as Charles-Marie Widor, Marcel Dupré, Jean-Jacques Grunenwald, and, of course, Daniel Roth. Since the latter's retirement at the end of 2022, 34-year-old Karol Mossakowski, born in Torun (PL) and a graduate of Paris National Conservatory, has been continuing the glorious tradition of composers and organists at this church.
For his debut album on the organ of his new workplace, he has put together a program of works by his famous predecessors, which also includes some rarely heard pieces.
Our recording was, of course, again produced in stereo and 5.1 multichannel versions in order to reproduce the sound experience in the room as realistically as possible.
Available as from November 7!
