Thanks for that - very enjoyable. [:)]</P>


However I'm afraid I'm a bit spoiled; whenever I think of "Franck" and "La Madeleine" in the same sentence I cannot but help think of the incomparable recordings by Jeanne Demessieux.</P>

The short life of Demessieux - tragic.</P>


But look at it this way - she is forever young, and her mystique is only increased.</P>


In fact, she has reached many people and continues to do so.</P>

I've never heard the Demessieux recordings, but based on this glowing report, I'll have to seek them out.
