Thank you so much for this. I remember mentioning Alkan's organ works to Isabelle years ago and it's very gratifying to see some of them played here. These etudes were way ahead of their time.
Was this one of Alkan's tortuous pieces where he instructed the player to make the sign of the Cross then go for it?! Isabelle has wonderfully flexible ankles to be able to play this unusual music!
Every time the UA-cam waves read my damn mind more... I was just wondering, looking at the score of these Alkan studies, how the hell chords would be played with the feet. This magnificent organist has just answered my question.
This is absolutely unreal, bravo
OMG, those trills with one foot. All my respect !!! :-D
