Notes & Reviews:

'Hyperion's organ recordings are in a class of their own, and this wonderfully mixed bag of goodies ... represents unparalleled value for money. I doubt whether any of these pieces has ever been played better' (Gramophone)

'Herrick's performances need no recommendation to those already acquainted with his dazzling skills' (The Good CD Guide)
