Louis Vierne (1870-1937), a student of Cesar Franck and
Charles-Marie Widor, was organist of the Notre-Dame Cathedral in
Paris for 37 years, until his death at the console during a
recital. Widor's successor as the organ's great French symphonist -
an assessment the passage of time has proved correct - Vierne's
music has remained in the repertoire of organists throughout the
world, never undergoing the periodic eclipses experienced by his
contemporaries. Vierne's autobiography, Mes Souvenirs, originally
published serially in the 1930s, is here available in a profusely
illustrated, extensively annotated English translation. Rollin
Smith's Louis Vierne: Organist of Notre Dame Cathedral is the first
major study of the great organist of Notre-Dame and includes
chapters on his American tour, recordings, contemporary
reminiscences, definitive textual corrections, the organ
symphonies, his death and succession, and a thematic catalogue of
his organ works.
