When Couperin set out to compose two organ masses, he could not possibly have imagined the interest that these youthful compositions would stimulate amongst generations of performers and audiences since they came to the attention of musicologists in 1929. The fact that the keyboards of the organ in Rozay-en-Brie are the only surviving example of 17th century French organ keyboards, and that Couperin himself certainly played them, are added bonuses to this outstanding recording.
