Passion: Artis Wodehouse Mason & Hamlin Liszt organ, piano

Artis Wodehouse plays her restored 1887 Mason & Hamlin Liszt organ and piano in the Passion music taken from Ruth Schonthal's 65 Celebrations for piano or organ. Wodehouse premiered the entire 65 Celebrations on May 17th, 2009 in a concert at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Montclair New Jersey. The piece comprises a series of 14 musical meditations on the major themes of the Christian liturgical calendar and lasts 1 hour and 10 minutes. Each meditation contains a prelude, postlude and 2 to 5 musical interludes that can be played either on the piano or on the organ. This video recorded 6/1 and 6/19, 2009 in the sanctuary of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Montclair, New Jersey.

What a neat piece and demonstrates just how well a fine Reed Organ can play the new composers as well as those from 300 years ago.
