About "Concerto in G Minor for Organ, Strings and Timpani, FP 93: VII. Tempo d'introduction. Largo (Live)" by James O'Donnell

Poulenc's Organ Concerto opens with a Largo of solemn grandeur, James O'Donnell drawing out the instrument's cavernous resonance. The live recording captures a hushed tension, as strings and timpani hover like storm clouds before the inevitable burst. It's a meditation on stillness, fraught with anticipation.
