Seen at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum on 20/April/2011 at one of the free recitals put on here on a regular basis (as I understand it); the organist at this lunchtime recital was Alan Kitchen. Sorry about the shaky hand-held video; old age and too may beers, maybe.

  • Hmmm. . . . . oh well then! Hope springs eternal. Will deffo up my real ale intake to see if the cure works for moi, mon ami. It's certainly true that I was as sober as a judge (can we still trust these guys, you reckon?) when I took this wee video.

  • The piece is Sortie in A by Theodore Dubois (1837-1924). The Kelvingrove instrument is a very fine romantic concert organ, built by TC Lewis & Co for the 1901 Glasgow International Exhibition. In 1941 the organ was damaged in an air raid, but subsequently repaired. In 1988 it had a full restoration by NP Mander Ltd with technical supervision by James MacKenzie. (Organ info summarised from CD insert from "The Kelvingrove Organ" by Timothy Byram-Wigfield, on Delphian Records).

  • Au contraire, mon frère Mr. John; You didn't have enough beer.  I've seen many, many people with the shakes smooth right out with a few beers. It's the opposite of what one would think.
