Saint-Saëns Organ Symphony - Ormandy - Biggs

Ormandy, Biggs, and Camille Saint-Saens

Ormandy's pacing is a bit odd in places, to my mind alternately too slow or too fast. Like many recordings of the Saint-Saens 3rd, Biggs was recorded separately and in a different venue. There is a slightly different 'air' around the organ than the rest of the orchestra, but it doesn't make itself known too often, and for the first time in my experience, the organ's final descending notes can be clearly heard.

A long-lost friend, revived

This was one of my first records as a kid, growing up in Philadelphia. Wonderfully restored. Brilliant choice for the catalog.
