Louis Vierne - Feux Follets

“Feu follet“ means “Will o’ the Wisp“: the most common name given to the mysterious lights that were said to lead travellers from the well-trodden paths into treacherous marshes. They are spirits either of the dead or of non-human intelligence and have a mischievous and often malevolent nature, luring unwary travellers into dangerous situations. From “Pièces de Fantaisie“, 2nd Suite (1926). Peter Bengtson plays the Cavaillé-Coll organ at Notre Dame de Metz, France. This is a virtual recording using Haupt
