Organ improvisations recorded in the Catalan Pyrenees

A couple of years ago, I stayed in an old house in the Catalan Pyrenees, in the small village of Arsèguel, near the French border. The house was surrounded by nature and faced a vast mountain landscape. In the living room, beside the fireplace, there was an old organ.

I had originally brought my microphone and laptop to record the surrounding soundscapes, but the organ quickly captured my attention. I placed the microphone close to the organ pipes and sat down to improvise, letting the instrument and the atmosphere of the place guide the music.

The result is a collection of improvised pieces gathered under the title Impressions d’une maison et d’un orgue face à la majesté d’une montagne, impressions of a house and an organ facing the majesty of a mountain.
