Anyone who calls an organ piece a "Grande Pièce Symphonique" should not be surprised if this very title one day serves as a yardstick to determine the legitimacy of the attribute. This is exactly what the organist, composer and pedagogue Zsigmond Szathmáry did at the instigation of his young colleague Christian Schmitt when he examined César Franck's "great symphonic piece" for its orchestral possibilities. The result of this examination brings us the world premiere of a concert piece in which the queen of instruments and her personified registers, i.e. the orchestra, form a captivating synthesis. Via Franck's well-known tone poem "Les Éolides" ("The Daughters of Aeolus"), the program finally leads to a discographic rarity by Charles-Marie Widor - a "Walpurgis Night" that easily rivals the most famous witches' dances in Romantic literature.
