The prospect of a little-known Saint-Saëns orchestral
work might not set the heart racing, but just wait until you hear 'La foi'. Ample amends for a century's unaccountable neglect are made with this magnificent new recording-so much more than a prelude to the 'organ' symphony.
"This is a most enjoyable CD which augurs well if, as I believe, it's to be the first in a series. The recorded sound is good and Roger Nichols' note is valuable. Encore, s'il vous plait." MusicWeb
"Fischer leads a superb, thoroughly enjoyable reading of Saint-Saëns's Organ Symphony…And although the three tableaux drawn from incidental music to Eugène Brieux's play La foi are a roughly sewn stylistic hotchpotch full of dull as well as striking passages, Fischer seems to believe in every note" Gramophone
