    Hi Bill, great group !

    My son's teacher did a similar concert in Nakas Odeon in last June with the 4 best students of his class with great success . The concert hall was full and many people sat outside !
    The organs were 4x 2m/ped Yamahas (Nakas SA is the official importer from Japan....), but the performance was superb !

    Thanks for the link

    Enjoyed the clip, Bill ... And the four very professional musicians did this with great finesse and had fun doing it, too.

    Having played in past years in situations similar to this, the coordination and timing is critical to say the least.
