i was one of the lucky ones to be in a performance of MESSIAEN'S TURANGALILA SYMPHONY in Athens several years ago... YVONNE LORIOD was on ONDES MARTENOT... She was old and walked on the stage supported, but ...WHAT A PRESENCE !

Yvonne Loriod playing the ondes? Surely it would have been her sister Jeanne, who was the famed exponent of the instrument. As I recall (possibly from Peter Hall and Nigel Simeone's biography of Messiaen), Yvonne did play the ondes - she taught a Japanese pianist well enough to play the Turangalila ondes part for the Japanese premiere - but not publicly. For that matter she was also a prolific composer, understandably now overshadowed in this regard by her husband!

It's an extract of archive footage from Olivier Mille's film "Olivier Messiaen: La Liturgie de Cristal".

Tell that to the thousands of ornithologists who have considered Messiaen's birdsong notations so accurate that they're used by them for scientific research.

With a few exceptions, I'm mostly not that fond of what I've heard by Messiaen (nor am I convinced by his attempts to translate birdsong into music or his attempts at portraying religious grace and faith), but man, does he look like he would have been a fun guy to know or have as a teacher! An eccentric in the best sense of the word.
