Visions de l'Amen pour 2 Pianos

Album by Olivier Messiaen & Elisabeth Vatn & Steffen Horn

Visions de l'Amen for two pianos is a large-scale work by French composer Olivier Messiaen, written in 1943. The music employs Messiaen's modal harmonies, additive rhythms and vivid piano colouration, and represents a wartime composition that develops his religious and mystical ideas while expanding the repertoire for two pianos.
