    Hi CD

    Thank you very much for that, I hadn't heard "William Tell" played on one organ let alone four. It was lovely, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Dame Margaret,

    You are most welcome. I liked it so much and will now try to get a recording of the Philadelphia Organ Quartet.

    Cheers,

    CD

    Hi CD, nice video. Do you know of any (romantic) symphony performed that way? I'd love to hear something like this.

    That's fascinating Sweet Corn ... I particularly like the eating of the banana in the opening montage ... it added something, and when I think just what ... LOL

    Splendid ... what fun that must have been for those guys ... Nice that we can let our hair down (so to speak) and do some fun stuff at concerts, too.

    Sadly I'd never be able to participate under your conditions, Krummiest, as my hair went missing when I turned 35 ... I'm still trying to find where!!

    Hi Mat,

    I don't know of any romantic symphony played by four organists but I do know of an artist named Jelani Eddington who has recorded Rachmaninoff's 2nd Piano Concerto. He recorded the orchestra part and then the piano part and the two were *joined* together. Here's info on the recording:

    Cheers,

    *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."
