I have always enjoyed the Peter Hill recordings of Messiaen's piano music and the late Jennifer Bate's organ recordings. When I lived in London in the early 1990s I heard Hill play the Vingt Refards at Wigmore Hallone December and immediately bought the CDs on the Regis label (now defunct?). I am less familiar with Messiaen's orchestral and vocal music = I have Harawi sung by Jane manning on LP but now rarely play vinyl.
Quatuor pour le Fin du Temps, I would have thought, should be in any essential Messiaen collection. I have Shaham/ Mayer/ Wanr/ Myun-Whun Chung on DG, plus Tashi on LP but sam open to other suggestions for this dark work.
