Two Preludes after Jean Langlais
Kevin McCarter
About this work:
A response to Langlais' "Choral in E minor" from his Organ Book (Ten Pieces) and the first of his Deux Petites Pieces dans le Style Medieval. The first prelude requires a 16' manual stop (not too loud) and offers an opportunity to use a solo stop. The second has no special registration requirements. The first prelude is about 4 1/2 minutes; the second, 3 1/2.
