Programme Note

Our first jury soloist is one of the world’s most renowned improvising organists, the successor to Jean-Jacques Grunewald as organist co-titulaire at Saint Sulpice in Paris – the position held by Widor for 64 years and by Dupré for 37 years. Her fascinating programme of Grunewald, Franck and Ibert explores the long tradition of improvisation by French organists, up to and including her own celebrated contribution.
