As heard on the Pipedreams radio broadcast with Michael Barone during this Easter season, Gerre Hancock creates a music improvisation in the form of a Prelude and Fugue, inspired by the Biblical themed windows, by French master Jean Barillet, in the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Hartford, Connecticut USA. This is one of nine organ improvisations in the program "Praise the Eternal Light" which contains over an hour of organ improvisations inspired by cathedral windows. It is available from the webstore at proorgano.com . Just search for item 7233 in the search box.

  • too bad the voicing on Austin organs is is at times... sub prime. This would be fun to hear on a bolder instrument such as a Jaeckel.

  • Fantastic!!!

  • A dazzling and brilliantly dynamic improvisation on a very fine instrument in a beautifully alive acoustic space. The finale is somewhat reminiscent of Lloyd Holzgraf's performance of "Festival Toccata" by R. Fletcher recorded at First Congregational Church of Los Angeles, issued by Miller and Kreisel on a direct to disc realtime recording entitled "The Power and the Glory." Those last few moments have a firey power of sensational virtuosity coupled with undeniable nobility and majesty.
