Sounds like the organ was in poor health (as I know it was pretty much knackered by the time it was dismantled in 2003). Also, the music is hardly Bruckner at his best... I'll stick with Bach for Preludes and Fugues, and for Bruckner I'll stick with the symphonies (and the Seventh in particular).

Fantastic organ for a fantastic performance !

O órgão está desafinado.

Well, sad person that I am, I happen to have the PROMS brochures from around that time - and I can tell you that the concert took place on Friday 13th September 1996, starting at 6:45pm!

A gem, as usual. Scott's recording of some of Dupré's work -- on Hyperion, as I recall -- is on my list of the 10 great "Knock Your Socks Off" performances.
