Jean-Jacques Grunenwald live at Saint-Sulpice, Paris on 10th of September 1978

Jean-Jacques Grunenwald shows us here that the music of Pierre du Mage can be played on this Cavaillé-Coll organ absolutely true to style, because this organ has such a high proportion of Clicquot stops. At the same time, the tonal realization of Arthur Honegger's chorale with a variety of different timbres is possible in an exemplary manner. The great improvisation of the récital seamlessly follows Honegger's chorale stylistically and is absolutely fascinating. Lento and Passacaglia are built on the same theme. The Passacaglia is marked by a ravishing crescendo. 10h15 00:00 Sonneries de cloches 00:26 Pierre du Mage, Suite du 1er ton (extraits) 10:03 Jean-Jacques Grunenwald, Improvisation Messe 11h.30 14:02 Johann Sebastian Bach, Wir glauben all an einen Gott (Offertoire) 17:39 Marcel Dupré, Invention en mi majeur (Communion) Récital 11h.30 21:17 César Franck, Final 33:07 Arthur Honegger, Choral Jean-Jacques Grunenwald, Grande Improvisation 38:34 Introduction 41:16 Allegro 44:06 Lento 47:29 Passacaglia Messe 12h.05 52:39 Jean-Jacques Grunenwald, Improvisation (Offertoire) 55:34 Jean-Jacques Grunenwald, Improvisation (Communion) 58:44 Jean-Jacques Grunenwald, Improvisation (Sortie) Recorded on September 10th 1978 Source reference: 00:34, 02:28, 03:44-06:53 (and later replays) pictures by Pierre-François Dub-Attenti.
