Andre Isoir, a highly-regarded French organist, specialized in Bach, including this lovely and serene Fantasia and Fugue in C minor, here paired with dancing aurora.
Andre’s son Daniel has paid loving tribute to his father, by managing his archive of recordings and promoting their modern use. Daniel is a superb musician as well – an award-winning pianist and founding Director of La Petite Symphonie.
We worked with Daniel to create this Earth movie to honor his father, who passed away in 2016. The aurora flows and shimmers with such harmony – well aligned with the Fantasia and Fugue. It’s a magical journey, and a heart-felt tribute to Andre Isoir.
