At least viewed from the continent, this is a summit of the 20th century:

A very Happy New Year to you, Pierre.

Thank you for this. A very fine organ; although I was surprised to read of the present location of the console, in one of the comments below the video. If I have read it correcty, putting it in a 'cupboard' below the re-sized Choir Organ could only be a retrograde step. When I played this organ, the console was, if I recall correctly, in the South Transept.

The playing sounds fine - although I thought that the organ sounded rather short of wind near the end. A pity, also, about the acoustic properties of the building - I think that it is even more 'dead' than my own church. 


Pierre Cochereau rocked, man

Not from Howells, but that one would do wonders in such sophisticated
repertoire:
