Best CD I Own.......2006-07-16

The sound quality of this instrument surpasses all instruments worldwide. You can hear a pin drop extremely clearly in the tabernacle the instrument is housed, making the pipe organ a highly effective sound producer. The larger 32' pipes sound just like thunderous power. A must buy for organists and organ enthusiasts.

a MOST NECESSARY recording! .......2006-07-10

First, I don't know how, but amazon lost my original review of this disc. My list of tags was still there, but not the review itself, so I will do a replacement one.

This is actually "The BEST of Virgil Fox, Volume 3"! Therefore, it belongs in your collection, along with Volumes 1 & 2!

The entire album is simply awesome (as all Virgil's releases were), and it is without doubt the hardest of all to find. Buy a used copy on here, it is the ONLY way to get one!

Highlights are:
The Durafle Suite Number 5.......very rare! I know of no other recording of it! It is simply beautiful, and sadly neglected. Certainly reason enough to purchase this recording!

The Boellmann Suite Gothique is just wonderful, and, another very good reason for purchasing this set.

And, the Vierne and Dupre pieces are played with such magnificent "Virgilian" splendor...all the fond memories of the Riverside concerts come flooding back from so many years ago. Simply put, (as Fox's fans know) there was never anyone to match him...even Liberace couldn't touch him for outrageousness, and of course the Organ is a much more "splendorous" instrument!

As I said above, do yourself (and your collection) a favor and add a copy of this album to it (even a used one from a secondary dealer on amazon here). You will not be sorry! I wish you many happy hours of listening! ~operabruin

Organ Music from France.......2000-12-21

This may be the only recording of the Durufle Suite No 5 for organ available. I've had the original vinyl since I started organ and I've still never tired of listening to it. It's very dazzling stuff, yet incredibly beastly to play. This is GREAT organ music. The Durufle performance alone is worth the price of the CD.

Fox once again Plays with Beautiful Tonal Colors.......1999-09-21

When hearing the Names Franck, and Dupre one automatically thinks France, but when Fox is at the Organ Playing those pieces full of that rich tonal color of the Chorist Reeds one thinks Heavy Organ with Fox in the days of Riverside.

The Rare Art of the Song..........2004-12-27

This is a very fine disk for hard-core lovers of that exquisite genre of the art song--lied, melodie, chanson.

Vierne was a wonderful composer in the line of Franck, Lekeu, Widor, Magnard, Faure, D'Indy, etc. (i.e., the Franco-Belgian school of late-Romantic [Wagnerian] chamber music). Vierne's stunning Organ Symphonies for the Cavaille-Coll organs of France form a unique body of work. And besides these, he wrote a number of excellent chamber works, solo piano works, and lieder (melodies).

Highly remommended.
