About
Widor’s Messe, op.36, been described as “containing the power of Bach and of Handel, combined with the penetrating grace of Mendelssohn, all animated by a Catholic feeling.” The mass was composed in 1878 for the Saint-Sulpice church, and calls for a large number of singers formed into two choirs.
Louis Vierne began writing his Messe pour deux orgues et chœur, op.16, in 1899, when he was Widor’s substitute at Saint-Sulpice. The album also contains other sacred works: Tantum ergo and Ave Maria, both by Vierne, and Widor’s Psalm 83 (“Quam dilecta tabernacula tua”), his Tantum ergo, and his motet Sacerdos et Pontifex (“Surrexit a mortuis”) for mixed choir and two organs.
