Description

Daniel Roth, the great titular organist of the Church of St. Sulpice in Paris, plays the pipe organ at Washington National Cathedral in this live recording. Fourth in a series of live concert recordings from the cathedral, Roth’s performances are absolutely electrifying. His own “Fantasie Fugue on Regina coli,” a brilliant improvisation, two Widor masterpieces: “Allegro” from the Sixth Symphony, and a particularly inspired performance of one of Roth’s signature pieces, Widor’s “Symphonie Romane”.€ This recording comes with extensive documentation: notes on the music, stoplist and numerous photos and a written interview with the artist.
