Hi

I think you mean Carol WILLIAMS (UK born organist).  I found this channel a while ago - some interesting recordings, both at Spreckles and in other venues.

Every Blessing

This is particularly interesting in light of the comments...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1l4qa1GdtA&feature=related

This piece works better in a "more" live acoustic... however a different microphone placement would have permitted more of the outdoor acoustic, like reflections off of buildings and land forms at some distance, to be heard than in the video linked to above.

The first time I heard this piece was on the radio... Melvin Butler playing the Flentrop organ at Saint Mark's Cathedral in Seattle...

From this recording...http://www.gothic-catalog.com/French_on_Flentrop_Melvin_Butler_p/lrcd-1013.htm

Unfortunately after hearing  Butler's performance... I have yet to find one on Youtube... that matches
it in terms of sheer excitement... But Carol's comes awfully close...
