Dal informace:

Nourished by Messiaen's beloved birdsong and Hindu rhythms, the Méditations bring alive the deepest mysteries of Catholicism and are here performed with a visceral intensity by Michael Bonaventure. This powerfully idiosyncratic composer's music has been realised on an organ of immense range and apocalyptic power.

(the Rieger organ of St Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh)
