Esquisses Byzantines

Description

French composer and organist Henri Gabriel Mulet (1878-1967) composed one of his most notable works, Esquisses byzantines, between 1914 and 1919. Dedicated to the Sacr�-Coeur, which was close to where Mulet was raised, each of the individual ten pieces in the larger work describes a specific part of the church itself or the liturgical function for which the church is used. The ten pieces are titled: 1. Nef, 2. Vitrail, 3. Rosace, 4. Chapelle des Morts, 5. Campanile, 6. Processionm, 7. Chant fun�bre, 8. No�l, 9. In paradisum, and 10. Tu es petra et port� inferi non pr�valebunt adversus te.
