I will be playing Messiaen's Transports de joie at RAM's audition for postgraduate entry. To be honest, I am pretty worried about it, it does sounds very tricky to me. Could fellow organists offer me some advice will be great. biggrin.gif

When is the audition? Good luck with the preparation. I am sure you will be fine as you have learned so much advanced repertoire within a short period of time.

Make sure that you have really good fingering and think in subdivisions. Focus on a few bars at a time, learn LH with pedal and RH with pedal before you put everything together. This shouldn't be too bad if you can play Demessieux's Te Deum.
