Other info:

The seeds for Messiaen's final organ work were sown during an inspirational trip to Israel in 1984. o ver the course of the next twelve months, Messiaen found improvisation leading him back to composition after the exhausting labours that had produced his mighty opera Saint François d'Assise . The Livre du Saint Sacrement became Messiaen's grand farewell to his own instrument, and Michael Bonaventure performs it from memory here on the Rieger organ at St Giles' Cathedral, whose true acoustic preserves the clarity of Messiaen's lines. The stunning booklet incorporates a booklet essay written by Messiaen biographer Nigel Simeone and features full colour photography.
