    Sullivan's organ use (not so uncommon)

    Well, I have no shame in the fact that I'm a big fan of Sir Arthur Sullivan's music (whether it be The Mikado, his Irish Symphony, or his oratorios). Attached is a case where he uses the organ in the Prodigal Son. I can just hear the rumble, especially if the player uses at soft 32' flue tone.

    It's not a "playable" file ... it's a "PDF" music written score. You need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) in order to view pdf's.
