Notes & Reviews:

Colin Wright's program on this enterprising CD serves two purposes: presenting works that put this organ, originally built in 1769, into historical perspective; and offering a cross-section of music by English composers who have rarely been recorded before. The result is a fascinating document and a delight for organ aficionados.
