Description

JAV 110 Modern Landmarks, Volume 1 — James David Christie

A spirited, vibrant performance of Bach’s Toccata in D minor leads off this stellar disc featuring Taylor and Boody’s Opus 9 at the College of Holy Cross. The organ shimmers and sings in Christie’s hands as its sound blooms in the generous acoustics of Saint Joseph Memorial Chapel. Christie’s innate musicality, delicate articulation and rhythmic agility bring life to the repertoire of the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries. His own transcription of Vivaldi’s Concerto in D major is outstanding.
