This album from organist and composer Marcel Dupré marks his first collaboration with the Mercury Living Presence label, recorded in Detroit in October 1957. Detroit Symphony conductor Paul Paray, an associate of Dupré's from their youth, conducts the orchestra on Saint-Saëns's Organ Symphony, believed to be the first stereo recording of this work. The success of both this release and an album recorded in New York a few days later motivated the label to record five additional albums in 1959 with Dupré on the organist's home turf, at Saint-Sulpice in France.
