This recording, made on the massive Cavaillé-Coll organ of Notre-Dame de Paris, of which he is titular organist, raises a number of fascinating questions. ‘My approach highlights several paradoxes: the notion of performing these key works of Protestantism in one of the most emblematic centres of Catholicism, first of all, but also of playing them on an instrument that is, to say the least, far removed from the Baroque and Classical style of organ building. It’s quite true, all of this raises questions. ‘However, the most important question remains, in my opinion, that of authenticity in music. I must confess that this concept often seems to me to be a decoy . . . Playing Bach in this context therefore implies finding a new balance in order to preserve the spirit and letter of music. One cannot be divorced from the other. ‘Every performer plays with the instruments of his or her time, and the instrument I have here at Notre-Dame is an outstanding one. One cannot and must not fight against the past, but on the contrary assimilate it, the better to derive inspiration from it and then find one’s personal path. We shouldn’t really be talking about authenticity at all, but, more soberly, about sincerity.’"No Of Discs: 1Artist: Olivier LatryRecord Label: La Dolce VoltaComposer: Johann Sebastian BachMPN: LDV70Release Year: 2024Tracks: 1: Ricercar a 62: Fugue in G Minor, BWV578, 'The Little'3: Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, BWV5654: Erbarm' Dich Mein, O Herre Gott, BWV7215: Fantasia6: Fugue7: In Dir Ist Freude, BWV6158: Herzlich Tut Mich Verlangen, BWV7279: Pièce D'orgue, BWV57210: Passacaglia in C Minor, BWV582 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
