This is magical and completely absorbing organ music. The earliest piece here is from 1970, and the latest was written just a few years ago in 2015. While there is considerable variety here, the music shares a use of irregular tempo relationships that keep a grip on your attention. In some cases, if not all, Nørgård calls it the "infinity series" and has created alternate versions of the score — one in traditional notation and the other a "proportional" representation. Both appear extremely difficult to learn. Organ recordings tend to be muddy but not this one, though there is no lack of mystery. It's simply incredible in surround-sound, and I can't wait to play the Toccata "Libra" for friends who venture over to my house.
