"Great organs recorded in great spaces giving bloom to these instruments is only one of the many points of interest in this set. The organists themselves, spanning a generation or two of teacher and student, are all noteworthy. The programs are wonderfully varied and include the expected repertory of the day from the UK with not a few forays into some unexpected territories. The sound is beautifully remastered and sounds exceptionally good in the digital format."
