Admiral of Fugues
I've been listening to a fabulous recording of a really exciting 20th century organ concerto: William Lovelock. It's really thrilling, and in true Lovelock fashion the final movement (4th) opens with a scintilating fugue on with the strings. My recording's with Sydney Symphony but I've no idea of where it was recorded (very, very audible pedal clacking, so can't be Opera House ... hmmmmmm)
I did some snooping and came up with this (would appear it was recorded on the monster at Sydney Town Hall):
