A recording of the Grand Prélude by Jacques Boyvin from his Pièces d'Orgue. Enjoy this dark and solemn Fourniture mixture of this Jean-André Silbermann organ in Wasselonne!
Boyvin has been a revelation for me. Little is known of his life, but his music is one with it's own distinctive twist on the French style. I've enjoyed it immensly just going through his compositions and choosing a piece for this programme. It's become intriguing enough for me to want to play his complete works.
Jacques Boyvin (c. 1649 - 30 June 1706) was a French Baroque composer and organist.
He was probably born in Paris, and studied there. One of his first jobs was that of organist of the Parisian church des Quinze-Vingts, and in 1674 he was appointed titular organist of the Rouen Cathedral, where Jean Titelouze served as organist some 40 years earlier. Other jobs included playing the organ of Rouen's Saint Herbland Church and supervising the rebuilding of the giant four-manual Clicquot cathedral organ. Boyvin was also an organ teacher: François d'Agincourt was one of his pupils and succeeded him as organist of the Rouen Cathedral. Like Titelouze, Boyvin remained the organist of the cathedral until his death on 30 June 1706.
Boyvin published two collections of organ works, in 1689 and in 1700, both featuring pieces spanning all church modes. The books contain 16 suites, no less than 120 individual pieces total. The second book contains the Traité abrégé de l'accompagnement, a treatise on accompaniment. The pieces are liturgical in nature and exhibit a brilliant style which makes use of forms and discoveries by Nicolas Lebègue and Guillaume-Gabriel Nivers.
