The Grand Fantasia (The
Storm) uses the drama of
a physical storm to
represent an emotional
one. The opening ominous
chords lead to thundering
chords and a programmatic
representation of a storm
that could fill every
corner of a cathedral
with reverberation. The
storm is quelled by a
Chorale section entitled
'Prayer', followed by a
swelling finale of
grandeur and peace.Jaak
Nikolaas [Jacques
Nicolas] Lemmens was a
Belgian Organist and
composer of the 19th
century. He was widely
acknowledged to be the
best Organist of his
time, with particularly
beautiful legato and
pedal technique, some of
which can be discerned
from his compositions for
his work Organ School. He
wasinstrumental in
bringing the works of
Bach to France and
Belgium, and was
influential as an
educator

The
Great Wall developed out
of an improvisation, a
homage to the Great Wall
of China. Two motifs
dominate in the work,
which requires a
three-manual organ: a
two-measure ostinato in
the pedal, and an
oriental-sounding melody
found on the manuals, in
the basic shape and in
the variations. The music
leads seamlessly from an
atmospheric picture into
a rhythmically-driven
crescendo, is interrupted
by a storm fantasy before
ending, after a second
upsurge, in a radiant
fortissimo. The dynamics
and articulation are
given very precisely in
the score. The
registration markings
relate to the four-manual
Muhleisen organ in the
Stiftskirche Stuttgart,
and are intended as a
guide for performance.
This thrilling work,
which recalls Ravel's
Bolero at certain
moments, communicates
directly with a wide
range of audiences.
