A pupil of Maurice Durufle, Sydney-based organist Edward Theodore has recorded the complete organ works of the renowned French composer and organist on the magnificent organ at St. Patrick's Cathedral, Melbourne. The collection of six works assembled here include the highly praised Prelude, Adagio and Choral Variations on the theme of the 'Veni Creator', Op. 4.

“His playing is technically assured and musically refined throughout ... The recording is excellent.”

— Harold Fabrikant, Victorian Organ Journal

“Theodore is well qualified to communicate the composer's distinctive and powerful imagination ...”

— New Classics, UK

“In the discs rendering of complex organ timbres and in the planning, performance and documentation of the project this CD can hold its own anywhere.”

— Sydney Morning Herald

“Edward Theodore ... brings to this disc a prodigious technique, always impeccably applied ... the pleasure of a distinguished interpreter, great music and a living acoustic.”

— Robert Boughen, Sydney Organ Journal

“stunning playing by a former pupil of the master himself ... the organ sounds fine”

— Bruce Steele, Organo Pleno
