Westminster

[Contratrombone64]

Now this is a piece I'm very fond of and an amazing filming, especially the views of the swell box.

Enjoy, it's a perfect tempo for this piece, too. IMHO.

I fully agree.. well done performance.

[Krummhorn]

Superb performance ... very nice and judicious use of the swell shoes, and nice to see the swell shades, and the regulator recovering at the end, too.

Excellent tempo - too many take this piece at a break neck speed, but this organists was absolutely perfect.

Lars - you are spot on about the tempo, too rushed and it just misses the point. I must crawl about inside my wonderful Pymble Ladies' College organ and see if I can't get some photos (especially of the swell open).

Certainly a very nicely produced video and an excellent performance there, but I'll confess to being not as sold on the tempi as some of you. It was a little inconsistent in places, and the tempo of the re-cap near the end was faster than his opening tempo. Still, I was listening on the craptop speakers, so I should probably give it another go on something a little better. It's a marvellous sounding instrument too (even on the craptop speakers!) and an attractive console - must find out more about it.

The shot of the nave at the end looked strikingly similar to the interior (as I remember it anyway) of Uppsala Cathedral in Sweden.

nice to see the swell shades, and the regulator recovering at the end, too.

Great description!
