NICOLAS DE GRIGNY (1672-1703)
MESSE & HYMNES

Livre d'orgue, 1699
Michel Bouvard & François Espinasse,
Grandes Orgues 1710

A pupil of the famous Nicolas Lebègue, Nicolas de Grigny quickly dazzled his peers with the daring complexity of his writing. His compositions, veritable Baroque gems, captivated even Johann Sebastian Bach, who meticulously copied his entire organ
book. The singular work of the former organist of Reims Cathedral is restored in all its splendour by Michel Bouvard and François Espinasse on the keyboards of the Great Organ of the Chapelle Royale.

Recorded from January 26th to 29th, 2024, at the Royal Chapel of the Château de Versailles.
