Composed by: Jean Guillou
A leading French contemporary organist and composer for the organ. Organist at the Church of Saint Eustache in Paris.
Eloge is "a poem" for organ that evokes the sense of the gaze that crosses the transparency of things; the spirit that magnifies, stirs and exalts; the spirit of the voice that praises, raises (conjures up) and suggests. This composition was commissioned by the city of Paris for the "First International Competition of the City of Paris" 1995. Difficult.
