I recently obtained a recording of the grand organ at St. Patrick's Basilica, Freemantle (west of Perth, Western Australia). Played by a Mr. Dominic Perissinotto. I bought it because it's got the wonderful Guilmant Sonata No. 1, (probably my favourite piece for organ of that era). The organ at this church is a monster (at least by Aussie standards) see:

for a specification.
Interestingly the recording also has Mr. Perissinotto's rendition of Pictures at an Exhibition (with wonderful use of all the colourful stops). Bravo to our Kiwis cousins for sucha wonderful restoration. Any Kiwis on this board??
