Audio CD of almost an hour of music played by Dom Michel Baumel on the organ of the Saint-Wandrille Abbey with its very special acoustics!
EAN: 3347170305977
The monks of St-Wandrille can be proud of their abbey church. A former tithe barn, all in wood, it was transported and rebuilt here piece by piece. It is an understatement to say that the acoustics conferred by the structure are of a quality that suits music lovers. And Dom Michel Baumel, "who has the daily responsibility of supporting the singing and prayer of his brothers", also excels in organ concerts, which find there a setting of choice. And even more in Bach's compositions, of which the "Jesus may my joy remain" is here as a summit.
