First tune is definitely Coventry Carol (AKA "Lulay, Lulay"). Thank you so much for posting all of this great Ray Bohr music. I moved to NYC in Dec. 1978, and would occasionally go spend a half or whole day in RCMH just to hear his playing between movies/shows. I'm so glad that the Hall is still open and that this wonderful instrument is still played.
Do you have any more info on Ray Bohr? Also, I remember (what looked like) twin brothers who played at RCMH in years following. Any info?
Great video! Thumbs up!

Fantastic! This is the way an organ should be played. Luv it!

I THINK the first song is The Coventry Carol, although I'm not 100% sure on that. I KNOW the second one is In the Bleak Midwinter.
