Notes and Editorial Reviews

“This is a MUST for organ aficionados.“ (American Record Guide)

"Only rarely can one ever say of a big recording project, that it is definitive. In this case I´m going to risk it.” (BBC Radio 3)

”This multi-faceted Dutchman gives us performances of Guilmant’s eight sonatas which, quite frankly, could not be bettered.” (American Record Guide)
