Tom Winpenny - Messiaen: La Nativite Du Seigneur

Tom Winpenny opens an illuminating window on Bingham's richly-coloured, programmatically-driven engagement with the 'king of instruments'...Given Bingham's exacting colouristic emphasis, it's as well that Winpenny knows the St. Albans instrument like the back of his hand, coaxing an array of voluptuous and apposite sounds. But he's also alert to the fluidity of her narratives, and, when called upon to do so, serves up virtuosic flair with incorrigible panache.
