Jennifer Bate is in the top rank of international organists and has long been a favourite at all the world’s great festivals. Her vast repertoire ranges from the 18th century to the most modern virtuoso scores. Many composers have written for her, inspired by her phenomenal technique and ability to bring out the colours of the organ. Her recitals, in nearly 50 countries, have included over 40 in France and 150 in Italy. In 1990, Jennifer’s artistry and outstanding contribution to music received international recognition with the Personnalité de l’Année award by the French-based jury  . All won international acclaim and she became his organist of choice, to whom he re-allocated all his own organ recitals over the last decade of his life. All her scores are marked with his personal nuances of interpretation and she continues to play his last masterpiece for organ, Livre du Saint Sacrement, from his own manuscript. Following her British première of the latter, at Westminster Cathedral (1986) with the composer present, Messiaen invited her to make the world première recording on his own instrument in Paris.

Jennifer Bate enjoys a unique reputation as a world authority on the French composer, Olivier Messiaen, and was his organist of choice. All won international acclaim. Her world première recording of his last masterpiece for organ, 'Livre du Saint Sacrement', had exceptional international success, winning a Grand Prix du Disque  . I don't know much about classical music generally or organ works specifically, but I think this sounds impressively rendered by Jennifer Bate. I personally prefer it to the Oliver Latry rendition, which I have read high praise of elsewhere. The Bate sounds right to me, the sound is chillier and the tempo generally pacier, and that seems appropriate too. I understood that Messiaen was a synaesthete and experienced harmonics as colours
