Carus has continued the recording of the complete Works of Louis Vierne in the Frauenkirche Dresden with the first part of the 24 Pièces de fantaisie. Kay Johannsen performs the Suites op. 51 and 54 [1926 27] on the Kern organ in the Frauenkirche. The final movement of the Troisième suite op. 54, “Carillon de Westminster,” is by far the most well-known piece of this collection, and next to the finale of the 1ère Symphonie is surely the most famous of all Vierne’s compositions. Kay Johannsen makes full use of all the sonoral possibilities of the French Kern Organ and skillfully combines his sensitive interpretation with the extraordinary acoustic of the Frauenkirche. This SACDoffers all music lovers unlimited aural delights.
