Summary:

"This album brings together Kodály's complete organ music with the world premiere recording of Ernő Dohnányi's only piece for organ, the eloquent Fantasie. Sokola's intense and compelling Passacaglia holds a special place in the organ repertoire, Wiedermann's Pastorale dorico was composed during the dark days of the Second World War, and Novák's attractive Prelude is a study in subdued tonal contrasts. Zoltán Kodály's organ works have a distinct musical language unlike any other composer, with the imposing Organoedia ad missam lectam being amongst his most important non-choral works from the post-war era, and Epigrams, originally for voice and piano, heard here in a transcription by Gábor Trajtler." -Case verso, unknown author.
