Choral Song, composed by S.S.Wesley, performed on the famous 1894 4 manual Hill Pipe Organ at Thomas Coats Memorial Church, Paisley, Scotland by Director of Music, Matt Edwards.
Sounds a bit heavy and romantic to me! But then the recording I have was made on a totally unaltered Elliott chamber organ in Sussex, in a little stone-floored barn of a church. I just love that big reed at the end, though!
Good performance - I appreciate the registrations, utilization of manuals and pistons to give character to the music. Beautiful sounding instrument, even though the big reed at the end seemed a little off tune.
