HOMMAGE to Charles Quef by Olivier Messiaen (1931)
Music sheet (gift from O.Messiaen)
In 1990, the composer gave to me - in private - two unpublished short organ pieces manuscript to thank me of all the work I do on the Sainte Trinité organ. So, I know very well the microcosmos organ world, that's why I say: Sorry, but this amazing manuscript is not for share.
In my archives, I also keep several interesting sheet of music as Wagner's marche religieuse, transcription for organ by Th.Dubois; notations by Messiaen, plus some pieces from Mozart, Haendel, Gluck's operas which contain many notations for registrations at Trinité, plus Cesar Franck piece.
Duets
Jean Loriod is not the only artist I played in duet. I also have had the great pleasure to work and play on the concept of pictures on an exhibition with the painter Aline Gagnaire, associated to the concept "organ & speaking voice" proposed by a friend of mine, Father James, at the cathedral of Meaux.
Timothy recorded me playing in Angouleme, and I would someday also like to make this tape available, music from a time when I was able to generate some interesting sound scenes. At the moment I no longer feelfficiently inspired. A project is, however, taking form in my mind. When it is ready, be sure I will announce it here.
