Louis Vierne Quintette pour piano Part I

[LBOrgue]

In memory of his son Jacques Vierne (Opus 42 - appeared 1924)

2 Violins, Viola, Cello and of course Piano. really wonderfull.

Louis Vierne was a great composer and showed the world his world of dark feelings. He died during a concert in Notre-Dame on his organ on 2th June 1937. wow.

His son died in the first world war; in fact he composed this music as a protest against the madness of warfare...

However fine his organ music undoubtedly is, Vierne is unjustly overlooked outside the world of the organ. This music is superb.

This sounds like the Frank Quintet. I've never heard this piece before. Thanks for the upload.

I love this movement - so gloomy, passionate, and profound. Of course Vierne's piano quintet is one of his masterpieces. I believe it was written in memory of his son's death.

[JCHBONNET]

You are right. This dark piano quintet was composed after his son death.
