Alexandre Guilmant Organ Sonatas - Organ

Description

DescriptionThe eight sonatas of Guilmant may well lay claim to classical rank.Originally conceived for the French organs of Cavaille-Col, they are sufficiently broad in conception as to lose little, if anything, in their interpretation on English and American instruments.At the time of their composition (1874-1909) they brought to the organ a new sense which had been too little cultivated by organists.
