Darling Silke! I'm so pleased that you enjoyed my performance of this rarely heard composition by Louis Vierne:) It is absolutely magnificant, and of course I'm still practicing & improving the harder sections for a future recording! Love & Hugs - Denise

What a piece of music, Denise - a work like a cathedral. And a wonderful one, it helped me so much to calm down and come to myself after a hard and busy day. It reminds me of Francis Poulenc's "Litanies de la Vierge Noire", one of my favourites. C'est magnifique!

[MissDeniseHewitt]

I'm thrilled that you enjoyed this powerful composition which is an absolute classic, and I'm hoping that my recording will encourage others to study the brilliant works of Louis Vierne:) Denise

[MissDeniseHewitt]

Yes! This piece is extremely difficult since it full of chromatic harmonies and exotic chord patterns! You'll see that it lasts for nearly 10 minutes, and it takes every second of intense concentration:) Best Wishes - Denise
