Charles-Marie Vidor's large-scale, majestic and beautiful Organ Symphony No. 7 is the quintessence of the beauty and power of an organ that alone can replace an entire symphony orchestra. Thanks to the inventions of technical progress in the 19th and 20th centuries, organs dating back to antiquity have become instruments with mega-powers that seem to be subject to any music.
French romantics Charles-Marie Vidor and Jean Alain created masterpieces for the symphonic organ that can easily compete with real orchestral canvases. The mentioned composers themselves were virtuoso organists, so they perfectly knew the peculiarities and secrets of this instrument and were able to implement their boldest creative ideas on it.
