French musician Jéhan Alain was one of the many musical talents extinguished prematurely by the World Wars, killed at the Battle of Saumur in 1940 at the age of 29. He’s known for his organ music, both intensely colorful and intensely contemplative. A standout in this complete collection of it, performed by his sister, is the Choral dorien, which turns a single mesmerizing and mysterious phrase over and over, slowly revealing the intensity within it.
