Family Affairs
With Peggy Reynolds. Organist Marie-Claire Alain has been acclaimed worldwide, with her recordings of Bach attracting particular critical praise. Her father Albert studied the organ with Vierne and Guilmant, brother Olivier was a pupil of Messiaen at the Paris
Conservatoire, and composer Jehan, another brother, wrote over 120 works but was killed by a sniper's bullet during the Second World War. Marie-Claire has succeeded in keeping the family name alive and establishing an independent reputation of her own. Albert Alain Scherzo
