John Robinson Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I have just received my latest Priory newsletter and catalogue. I was very pleased to read that, following the positive reception of their DVD of Liverpool Cathedral Organ (discussed elsewhere on this forum), they are to release a second DVD next year, this one featuring King's College, Cambridge. What is more, they are planning a third for release some time in the future (not specified), from York Minster. That's next year's birthday present sorted, and probably the following year too!

Richard McVeigh Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 That is correct. I wonder if Stephen Cleobury's approach to demonstrating the organ will differ to that of Ian Tracey?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidb Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 There are also organ recital dvd's on prestoclassicals website. I have no idea about the quality though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Robinson Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 For those who enjoyed the DVD of Liverpool Cathedral organ, Priory have now sent me details of their second organ DVD. PRDVD2 will feature the organ of York Minster (not King's, Cambridge as originally announced), and is due to be released in September/October. The 'pre-release price' is £19.99 (normal price £25.99), and both DVD and CD (sound only) are included, as for Liverpool. According to the leaflet, the content will be: Vierne - Toccata Albinoni - Adagio for Strings Peraza - Batalla for Trumpets* Gigout - Scherzo Gigout - Toccata Thalben-Ball - Variations on a Theme by Paganini for Pedals Wood - Chorale Prelude Mozart - Fantasia in F minor Elgar - Imperial March Dubois - Fiat Lux Mulet - Rosace Mushel - Toccata Durufle - Fugue sur le carillon des heures de la Cathedrale de Soissons Cochereau - Sortie sur Haec Dies (* Wouldn't this be effective done on Tuba Mirabilis, with Bombarde as an echo, as on Spanish organs with Trompeteria facing chancel and aisle? Will have to see what JSW decides!) King's College will follow later as PRDVD3 'in the late Autumn'. That's my (late) birthday present and (early) Xmas present from t'wife sorted.
