The Complete Organ Works of Jean Langlais, a set of CDs recorded by Ann Labounsky, a breathtakingly huge and remarkably intriguing set. Utilizing seven organs on two continents, from 1979 to 2003 Labounsky recorded the vast repertory that is Langlais's organ works. Labounsky recorded over 356 tracks on 26 CDs of movements ranging from miniature to monumental: some of the Eight Preludes, Op. 222, or the Douze Versets, Op. 235, are barely a minute long (several of the Quatre Préludes, Op. 185, last barely 30 seconds), while works such as The Poem of Life, Op. 146, and Offrande à une âme, Op. 206, are each more than 20 minutes. Learning to perform all these pieces is a most incredible accomplishment, and, yet more impressive, Labounsky 's interpretations are consistently thoughtful and compelling. These discs are regarded as definitive recordings of Langlais' organ music .
