Venise
César Franck and Olivier Messiaen were organists. Composer and organist Thierry Escaich - recently appointed titular organist of Notre-Dame de Paris - follows in their footsteps, with a language steeped in French music and its rich sound.
"Thierry Escaich, how would you describe Claire-Marie's playing?
Clear, intelligent, everything is perceptible.
And you, Claire Marie, how do you feel about Thierry's art?
Multiple, singular, indispensable!"
