That's funny, I gave a very similar organ concert last week. Great piece to finish a recital with, isn't it? Slightly sloppy redition though, not always true to the score, although I like the added notes in the bass on the last page. Thanks for the post!
Not to say the book is unreliable, just a few selections are "arranged by" in addition to the original composer. For example the "Now thank we all our god" is a watered down version of Virgil Fox's. I think. Assuming you have the Oxford collection as well
great playing! mathias is one of my favorite composers for organ. i want to get my hands on this piece!

I got it from a book of wedding music which has some less that accurate arrangements. I added a bit to make up for the dryness of the room.

Yes, I noticed the room is very dry. I got it from the same book - I had no idea that this edition is not reliable.

Mathias is one of my favorites, but I didn't hear this piece before, great! And great playing.
