Musical stained-glass windows, sonorous proclamation: Messiaen's organ works are an entire universe, and one of their climaxes is the magnificent Méditations sur le Mystere de la Sainte Trinité. Reflections, improvisations – a large-scale immersion in one of the greatest subjects of faith. The aethereal sounds and world-encompassing chordal chains of Messiaen could not be realised better than on Messiaen's own organ at the Sainte Trinité Church in Paris. And the grandiose Leipzig University organist Daniel Beilschmidt literally pulls out all the stops on the new GENUIN Movimentos CD, the tenth of this highly praised series. From the warbler's whistle to the song of the stars – masterly!
