The Mendelssohn sonatas are established standard repertoire items for most organists. Comminssioned in London as Voluntaries and then published simultaneously in four different countries, they are notable for their lack of consistent form, ranging from two to four movements, and eight to fifteen minutes in length. Scottish organist Susan Landale graduated from Edinburgh University and then continued her studies with the great French organist Andre Marchal in Paris. She was later appointed organist of St. George's Anglican Church, Paris, a post she held for eighteen years.
