Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach

Thanks, and this is well done.

A random thought: transcribing Bruckner's 3rd Symphony for the organ is a great idea.

Hi quantum,

Bravo! Wonderful playing as always! And what a great piece too, this tocatta by Boellmann I like how the mode changes to major in the last chord. This is the first time I've ever heard it, so thanks for posting it here.

The Gothic Suite! Wonderful, and it sounds very good. Please tell us about the instrument.

Thanks Walter.

Certainly I'll tell you about the instrument, but I am curious to know: do you have any predictions to the maker based on the recorded sound?

Wow, Quantum ! Great playing and great Halloween selection

. Thanks for posting this !

As a side note, I have to say that I remember some of the first times I sat down at the organ in the organ practice room at University (when I was taking organ lessons), what a grand sound it was all around me !! This Toccata kind of brings back those feelings of being enveloped in that sound for the first time ... it's a pretty crazy instrument !
