his transcription of Maurice Ravel's Toccata, originally very pianistic, has been completely rewritten to sound as if it had been composed for the organ, while respecting as much as possible the composer's intentions.
It is designed for an instrument with 56-note keyboards and a 30-note pedal board. The registrations are proposed for an instrument with three keyboards and pedals, but the piece easily adapts to a two-manual organ. We have simplified the registrations so that the piece can be performed on many instruments, with a reasonable number of game changes. The organist is, however, free to make this transcription his own by adding and modifying the registrations as he wishes.
It should be noted that Ravel insisted that his Toccata be played as clearly as possible, highlighting the dialogue, even the struggle, between the two themes. This dialogue does not appear in the same way on the piano as on the organ, where sustained sounds take on more breadth and where percussive writing can seem softer.

The five organ pieces in this volume come from a manuscript kept in Berkeley (USA). This source, less known than the Montreal organ book, also contains the Third Organ Book (1685) by Lebègue. It consists of 4 hymns, Ave Maris Stella, Ave verum, Pange lingua, Veni creator, and a sequence, or prose, Victimæ Paschali.
There is a strong presumption that these organ pieces, first attributed to Lebègue, then to Boyvin, were composed, according to the analysis of the ornaments, in the entourage of Jacques Boyvin and Gaspard Corrette, perhaps in Rouen. Probably written for convents, the organ must have been a two-manual instrument of small dimensions.
The figured bass of the first verse of the Victimæ Paschali is an ordinary practice of organists at that time; Jean-Baptiste Robin here offers a production for four voices, drawing inspiration from the plein-jeux of Ave Maris Stella and Ave verum.

Three legendary works by Claude Debussy, in organ transcriptions wherein faithfulness to the text and concern for adaptation to the pipe instrument strike an exemplary balance.
