Organ Symphony No. 1 by Kaikhosru Sorabji.
Hi Corno Dolce,Originally Posted by Corno Dolce
How did you happen to come across gems like this one? In all my years as an organist, I've never heard of this particular work and lots of others. Wondering if this is because of my particular geographic location?

Hello Krummhorn,
Naaah, it shouldn't be because of your demographic location, particularly not since you have one of the nations finest schools of music in your neighborhood. The Sorabji Symphony is performed by Kevin Bowyer:

Sorabji wrote three organ symphonies.
Here's the Sorabji Archive from which you can order sheet music by Sorabji:

Cheers,
Corno Dolce
p.s. I just noticed that the recording of Sorabji's organ symphony No. 1 is unavailable. Maybe someone has *ripped* a copy of it on Limewire.

*If a man wants God to hear his prayer quickly, then before he prays for anything else, even his own soul, when he stands and stretches out his hands towards God, he must pray with all his heart for his enemies. Through this action God will hear everything that he asks* -Abba Zeno-
*Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."
*Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."

R. Strauss - Also sprach Zarathustra, op.30
Oh I love that one! Strauss wrote a lot of good pieces along with some
good waltzes. Sprach Zarathustra is the one used on the movie 2001
along with the Blue Danube, Roses from the south, and more pretty
waltzes.

L'Ascension by Olivier Messiaen.
Every day, I listen to many hours of music - at least three hours of classical. Today so far, I have been listening to all the MP3 files posted in the Pipe Organ forum. Wonderful music that makes the heart sing. I enjoy J S Bach's Organ music often. Many nights have 6 hours of classical music playing softly - a great way to fall asleep, and wake up - I only sleep 6 hours a night, so it serves as my reverse alarm clock - the music stops, I wake up.
Requiem and Missa Cum Jubilo by Maurice Durufle.
The Nutcracker Suite by Tchaikovsky
Hi !
This afternoon, I listen to Stephen Best's organ work, from Giwro's Web site.
Very nice tunes, very beautifull solo trumpet, very realistic organ sound ....
