pour le Magnificat du 5e ton
Ref. PBM 36.02
“These five verses are beautifully-wrought tonal settings based on tone V. A unusual little suite. This is delightful and no more than Grade 6 standard to play. For short voluntaries, or concert/liturgical use with a cantor, it would be a delight.”
(Paul Hale, Organists Review, May 2003)
