Xavier Darasse, André Isoir & Gustav Leonhardt AN EXCITING HISTORY OF THE UNIQUE INSTRUMENT The organ is one of the oldest, most complex and most glorious musical instruments known to men. This four part series outlines the history of this magnifi cent instrument, ranging from the beauty of the sound to the wealth of music written for it, and encompassing not only the craftsmanship involved in building such a complicated (and often ornate) structure, but also the wonderful settings in which these instruments now reside. VOLUME 3 This episode concentrates on the first half of the eighteenth century – the Golden Age of organ music. The French and German schools of organ-making are explained and illustrated, and the works of Marchand, Dandrieu and Johann Sebastian Bach figure prominently. |

André Isoir (organ Grenzig, 1982 Saint-Cyprien-en-Périgord) “His playing is immaculate and truly musical, beautifully phrased and neatly articulated. If you do not possess a performance there is probably no need to look any further.” Organists Review |

| |  | J. S. & C. P. E Bach - Works for organ and oboe
André Isoir (organ) & Michel Giboureau (oboe) The common element among the variety of stylistically and
formally divergent works that make up this album is the
appealing sound of the organ and oboe played together, a
sound which readily conveys a wide range of feeling.
Compositions by two members of the Bach family, written at
different times and for different reasons, tie the programme
together. All illustrate the particular aesthetic of 18th-century
Germany. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

"André isoir has recorded the entire organ works of Bach for Calliope. His playing is immaculate and truly musical, beautifully phrased and neatly articulated. If you do not possess a performance there is probably no need to look any further" Organist's Review “Unfettered by the 'letter' of the score, Isoir's Bach is a refreshingly free spirit, adventurously registered in the great Toccata, Adagio and Fugue. Unashamedly 'French' in the Couperin-derived Trio in F. 'Staid' is not in Isoir's vocabulary.” BBC Music Magazine, Proms 2008 **** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

André Isoir (organ) Orchestre de Picardie, Edmon Colomer recorded 1999 in the cathedral Laon on the occasion of Poulenc's centenary "Played by André Isoir and the Orchestre National de Picardie the Organ Concerto becomes lofty and tragic, as it should be. Conductor Edmon Colomer brings out the lyricism and rhythmic quality of the Sinfonietta and the Suite Française, and thus performed they show Poulenc at his purest and best."
