Our Take

In the murky world of organ music, Kay Johannsen's latest album "Vierne/Organ Works" is a breath of fresh air, like a gust of wind through a cathedral. Displaying virtuosic skill and a deep understanding of the repertoire, Johannsen weaves through the works of French composer Louis Vierne with finesse and flair.

The album opens with the grandeur of Vierne's notorious "Symphony No. 3", a powerful tour de force that showcases Johannsen's technical prowess and musical sensitivity. From the hauntingly beautiful harmonies of "Les cloches de Hinckley" to the thrilling cascade of notes in "Final (Symphony No. 1)", Johannsen navigates the complexities of Vierne's compositions with grace and precision.

But it's not all serious business on this record - Johannsen injects a sense of playfulness and whimsy into tracks like "Carillon de Westminster", where the majestic sound of the organ is juxtaposed with playful melodies that dance around the keys.

Overall, "Vierne/Organ Works" is a triumph for Johannsen, a testament to his skill as a performer and his passion for the organ. Whether you're a die-hard fan of organ music or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to delight and surprise in equal measure. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let Johannsen take you on a musical journey through the halls of Vierne's timeless compositions.
