24 Pieces: 1 - Prelude modal

French organist from Brittany who became blind at the age of three. Studied at the Institute for the Blind in Paris and then with Dupre and Tournemire. Eventually became organist at St. Clotilde, where Tournemire and Franck had been organists. Inspired by medieval works, gregorian chant and Breton folk songs.

The opening work to the set of 24 pieces is perhaps the least strange and 'nomal' work in the book! It is a lovely piece on the fonds. I tried this on a couple of organs but I was missing St John Cantius, Cracov, which has a lot of lovely fonds.

Hope you enjoy!
