Background and General Perspectives on Performing Bonnal Organ Works

From Oxford music online: "His organ music is an original body of work, indebted to the harmonic language of Vierne and to the modality and rhythmic freedom of Tournemire. Steeped in the atmosphere of the Basque country, his works are also characterized by a fondness for nature and the Impressionist nuances suggested by changing light."
