Originally published in 1958: reissued on CD in 1994 by arrangement with EMI. Playing time 64:34 - Mono Recording. “The transfer to CD is excellent: play this to your musical friends and get them to guess when it was recorded.” Early Music Review “...the registrations are effective without any lack of authenticity, and admirably designed to show off England's modest but distinctive contribution to classical organ-building. His playing, too, has a rhythmic zest about it (largely due to properly articulated phrasing)...anyone interested in early English music should make a point of listening to it.” Gramophone Magazine, October 1958 “The excellent musicianship displayed is quite simply beyond praise and the vibrancy and life made evident in the music is a real joy to hear. The booklet contains photographs and histories of all four instruments used.” The Organ | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

William Whitehead (The 1723 Abraham Jordan Organ of St George’s, Southall) The first recording of the historic 1723 Abraham Jordan organ in St George’s Church, Southall, completely restored to its original specification by Mander Organs in 2009. One of only a handful of instruments surviving from this period in the UK, this delightful early eighteenth-century organ has a surprising wealth of colour and characteristic sonorities, including one of the world’s earliest examples of a ‘swelling organ’. Critically-acclaimed organist, William Whitehead, presents a broad survey of Restoration and Georgian English organ music appropriate to the restored instrument, and includes many works new to the catalogue. | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
