Hello All! I've been a long admirer of the work and awareness this forum creates for the preservation of fine British instruments. Now that I've finally become a member, I would like to share with you recordings of two English organs that have been given a new lease of life in Germany.

The first instrument came from St Mary's church in Yeovil, Somerset (where I was organist at the age of nine) and is now in the English church in Stuttgart. This church is situated close to the Musikhochschule and has attracted a lot of attention from students and professors; Ludger Lohmann and Bernhard Haas have already performed recitals on this organ, and one of the occaissional organists there is Nathan Laube!
