Writes Arthur Lawrence in the July 1999 The American Organist, "These are phenomenal performances by an extraordinary organist [Jeanne Demessieux 1921-1968] whose technique and musicality knew no bounds . . . One is astounded by the electrifying interpretations that transcend any matters of performance practice. . . Seldom has the intrinsic message of [the Messiaen and Liszt works in Vol. 3] been so effectively communicated." Also listed below are two recordings by others of Demessieux's compositions.
