WOW! Thanx so very much for enlightening me as to the Romsey Abbey instrument. I confess to looking at the NPOR in re to the instrument and was surprised as to the "palette of colors" which the instrument possesses. Yes, I reckoned that the Tuba might be overkill in the scheme of the resources. Sad to hear about the Double Open in the pedal being somewhat anemic. Yes, I will try to visit Romsey on my next trip to Britain.
Btw, I noticed a youtube upload where Ian Tracey does a "playthrough" of some of the resources of the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral "Wonder Machine". It is being released on Priory Records, if my memory serves me. What a luxurious sound those (5) eight-foot Diapasons deliver. What other instrument can compare with it? Yes, the grand space of the Cathedral is definitely the most important "stop" of the Willis organ.
Cheers,
CD :tiphat:
