pcnd5584 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Thank you for the information! Yes - I also expect that it sounds wonderful. I would like very much to hear it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Morley Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I can confirm that St George, Preston is indescribably glorious, and VERY French. For my money, it's a more exciting instrument than Preston Parish Church (NPOR N12477), despite the latter's historical significance. On the subjcet of unaltered organs by FHW, I suggest, if you can bear it, that you you look at NPOR N10819. Cheers, Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I do like the sound of the 'French' description for St. George's. I have tried N10819 - it looks to be quite reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Morley Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I have tried N10819 - it looks to be quite reasonable. I was thinking more of the tragic state into which this organ has fallen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
