CD Imaginary Day, track 21: Jeux de basson, hautbois et voix humaine - organ Stevenskerk, Nijmegen

The last piece of the CD is contemplative, with the atmosphere of an epilogue. It begins with a perfect fifth, on the gemshorn 8' of the great manual, maintained throughout the piece by putting weights on the keys. The sound is deepened by the subbas 16', the principal 16' and the violin 16 of the pedal (that wonderful ensemble of 16'). The melody is played on the first manual with a bassoon 8' in the Dorian mode. At the end, the organ point disappears and the low sound of the pedal remains.

The Koenig-organ in the Stevenskerk, Nijmegen, remains one of my most favorite organs.
