About

The name of Louis Vierne (1870-1937) will be associated with organ music immediately. Like a few other 19th-century organists/composers he used the instrument as a means to perform "symphonic" music. The scope in this respect was greatly enhanced by the new organs built at the time, for instance by Aristide Cavaillé-Coll. Played by Carlo Mazzone on the magnificent 1999 "Andrea Zeni" organ of the Parish Church of San Michele Arcangelo, Salgarede (TV), Italy. And is inspired by late-Romantic aesthetics, and endowed with all the stylistic and sonic prerequisites essential to the organ literature of the period.
