Marcel Dupré Joseph Boulnois Charles Marie Widor 1886 1904 1914 1926 1934 1954 1971
Roger Sayer plays the Prelude and Fugue in G Minor by Marcel Dupré +••.••(...)). Marcel Dupré +••.••(...)) grew up in Rouen in a very musical household: his father Albert held the post of organist at l’Eglise St Ouen, and his mother Alice was a cellist and pianist. Marcel entered the Paris Conservatoire in 1904, and later became professor of organ performance and improvisation there from 1926 until 1954. He also held the post of organist titulaire at St. Sulpice in Paris from 1934-1971. Dupré’s Trois Préludes et Fugues were written in the summer of 1914, and published after the war. Each is dedicated to the memory of a French organist. The Prelude and Fugue in G minor, dedicated to Joseph Boulnois, organist of St-Louis d’Antin, is the best known and most popular of the set. It is fiendishly difficult, and was once pronounced unplayable by Charles Marie Widor, Dupre’s predecessor as organist at St-Sulpice. The Prelude is characterised by an effervescent flute accompaniment to a dreamy, plainsong-like melody, which then reappears in the virtuosic compound time Fugue.

Kimball Marcel Dupré Widor Joseph Boulnois 1886 1914 1926 1934 1954 1956 1971 2008 2020
First Congregational Church The 'Cathedral of Grace' in downtown Columbus, Ohio Recorded LIVE Sunday February 2, 2020 with iPhone X using Smart HDR in stereo sound. There is a brief Benediction just before the POSTLUDE. Preformed by Organist: Kevin Jones at the Kimball console The acolytes: Maya Haslet and Carmen Axt, carry the symbolic Light Of Christ out of the sanctuary and into the world, reminding us that we "Depart to Serve." A native of Rouen, Marcel Dupré (1886–1971) was among the most famous and widely travelled organists of his day. In 1934, some thirty years after becoming his assistant, he succeeded Widor as Organist of St-Sulpice, Paris, and from 1926 to 1954 he was Professor of Organ at the Paris Conservatoire, whose Director he was from 1954 to 1956. His Trois Préludes et Fugues, Op 7, were written in the summer of 1914, the year in which he won the Premier Grand Prix de Rome, but they were not published until after the war. They are memorial works, each dedicated to the memory of a French organist, and the third, in G minor, is dedicated to Joseph Boulnois, who was Organist of St-Louis d’Antin. Notwithstanding its fearful technical difficulties, it is among the best-known and most popular of Dupré’s works. In the prelude, a plainsong-like theme emerges dreamily from flutes’ gently mordant effervescence and later appears above rich and ingeniously engineered harmony. The subject of the virtuosic, compound-time fugue encapsulates the composer’s name in speech-rhythm. The prelude’s plainsong-like theme reappears, first on the pedals, where it unobtrusively underpins the manuals’ incessant activity, and towards the movement’s end, where it heroically surmounts massive chords whose terrific momentum derives from the pedals’ rendering of the subject. The final page, in which the notes hurtle towards the magnificent final cadence, places this among the most memorable of all fugues for organ. from notes by Relf Clark 2008
