Marcel Dupré - Élévation (Op. 2) - Ben Bloor

Élévation (Op. 2) by Marcel Dupré performed by Ben Bloor on the 45 stop 1954 Downes/Walker organ of the London Oratory Church on Saturday 12th September 2020. Born in Rouen in 1886 into a musical family, Marcel Dupré was a child prodigy. His accomplishments include a healthy catalogue of well-loved organ compositions, and a recital career that saw him play the entire works of Bach from memory. He succeeded Charles-Marie Widor as titulaire of St Sulplice in 1934, until his death in 1971. Louis Vierne’s 3rd symphony is dedicated to Dupré, and Dupré dedicated to Vierne his Violin Sonata (Op. 5) and this Élévation for Organ (Op. 2). This early work is a short diatonic canvas for the iconic string sounds of the Cavaillé-Coll instruments of the day, written for liturgical use at the elevation of the host. Ben Bloor is Organist at the London Oratory Church and School Organist at Westminster School. For more information, please visit https://www.benbloor.com
