  • You're absolutely right. As much as I enjoy other more recognized figures in 20th century music, Milhaud and Poulenc remain two of the most underrated composers of the century.

  • If God had a voice, it would sound like the organ!

  • Ha, ha ... it sure looks like fmbp took one too many Dulcolax. Poulenc is soooo Twentieth century. His music is yummy.

  • Not every organ is the same...they all have different sounds and Murray, who I know personally, happens to be an extraordinary musician.

  • it sounds epically tragic

  • Yes, but you do NOT need Harrison-voiced reeds at the beginning, like in this recording.

  • Durufle starts with the tutti, as Poulenc specified. You absolutely need the reeds at the beginning.

  • grinder, can you or someone post the Durufle/Pretre recording here?

    I like this one, but have no comparison to the other.

    Does yours start out with no reeds at the beginning? Just full plenum and bright mixtures?

    That would be a change I would make.

    Thank you.

  • C'est magnifique !
