    The RAH organ is (reach for your keyboards!) a better instrument than the RFH

     

    They are certainly, in many distinct respects, very different instruments. But in terms of overall 'balance', and dare I say 'musicality', the RFH instrument is now several steps ahead of the RAH.

     

    Not that we hear the RAH organ anyway, so any discussion on this is virtually futile.

    Um.... since we are talking (well, writing) about perceived inaccuracies of pronunciation and grammar, surely the above should read 'Cornet des Violes'....

     

     

     

    I have both the official stop lists from Harrison and Harrison in A4 pamphlet form for both King's College Cambridge and Westminster Abbey. In each the spelling is "Cornet de Violes".
