"Gerard Brooks performances cannot be praised too highly; his choice of tempi and the organs's colours are always appropriate and he has a natural affinity with Gigout's polished, refined musical style." (Gramophone Magazine)

"Gerard Brooks performances cannot be praised too highly; his choice of tempi and the organs's colours are always appropriate and he has a natural affinity with Gigout's polished, refined musical style. Priory's excellent recording captures the authentic Gallic tones plus some mechanical noises of the two mid-19th-century Cavaillé-Coll instruments. The choir organ behind the altar (heard in the pieces for harmonium) may only have 14 stops but it's every bit as fine as its bigger brother at the cathedral's west end with its 57 stops and a glorious, sonorous tutti."
(Gramophone Magazine)

Recorded and Produced by Neil Collier
Digital Editing by Paul Crichton
Recorded in Perpignan Cathedral on 19 and 20 October 2004
