| Summary |
The genius of Cavaille-Coll celebrates the life and work of Aristide Cavaille-Coll (1811-1899), the great French organ builder whose work inspired the magnificent compositions of the French Romantic Organ School -- Franck, Widow, Guilmant and many others. The centerpiece of this lavish boxed set is a three-part, 156-minute documentary about Cavaille-Coll's life and work. Two further DVDs include demonstrations of fifteen organs and more than three hours of music (all recorded in full surround sound). Two CDs feature a survey of French organ music from 1830 to 1900. An 80-page booklet contains specifications and color photos of all the organs, track details and an introductory essay. - Container. |
