Two of America's most celebrated musicians, both Grammy Award-winners, join for a programme that ranges across the sacred vocal and organ repertoire. Some of the most beloved of all pieces, such as Franck's Panis angelicus (taken from his Messe à 3 voix) are complemented by rarer items.
Nadia Boulanger's three organ pieces are heard alongside her sister Lili's beautiful Pie Jesu while Max Reger's sensitive organ arrangements of three Hugo Wolf songs are followed by the rousing Toccata and Fugue, Op.59.
