That last bit I read on the<\/em><br \/>\n<em> information, as I didn&#8217;t hear that sort of computer automation in these pieces. It all sounded like a pipe organ being played and nothing much else. But then so I was wrong I guess and it made me wonder what that computer did. There are eight pieces on this CD and it&#8217;s all quite normal pieces of pipe organ on the surface but if you listen closely odd little things can be noted, strange intervals, odd repetitions and such like, along with some wonderful melodic pieces, such as &#8216;Rose Et Jaune Et Vert&#8217;.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vitalweekly.net\/1153.html\">Vital Weekly 1153<\/a><\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;186&#8243; border_color=&#8221;grey&#8221; img_link_large=&#8221;&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; link=&#8221;http:\/\/www.cdbaby.com\/cd\/ilostthefish2&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]Signatura Rerum Musique contemporaine pour orgue \u00e0 tuyaux, enregistr\u00e9e sur le superbe instrument Casavant du Palais Montcalm, Qu\u00e9bec.
