Portrait of Charles Tournemire

A pupil of Franck and organist of Sainte-Clotilde in Paris from 1898 until his death, Tournemire developed a mystical and visionary language based on Gregorian chant. His monumental "Orgue mystique," a cycle of 51 offices for the liturgical year, is a unique work in the repertoire.
