Louis Robilliard

Louis Robilliard is the main organist of the great Cavaillé-Coll organ at the St.-François-de-Sales in Lyon.
He has a double career: he is both a teacher and performing musician, which enables him to make numerous tours throughout France and abroad.
Louis Robilliard, who has a keen interest in organ building and the protection of the instruments, has been a reporter for the National Superior Committee of Historical Monuments for ten years now.
His recorded works, dedicated to the great French and German symphonic repertoire, improvisations and transcriptions, are unanimously praised by the critics.
Although he has a vast repertoire, Louis Robilliard, as an interpreter, transcriber and improviser, has a preference for the beautiful works of the nineteenth century, since these require from the organist to be 'an inspired architect' - a virtuoso who masters his instrument and has knowledge of sound structures.
In this way, he serves generous, lyrical and grandiose music. For Louis Robilliard, 'Music is the breath of another life, concealed and unfathomable'.
