1    The recording sounds very good.... the program is delightful, and you play it well!  The singers sound very good, too.  I am impressed that it is a fine organ and deserves every effort to preserve it.....  Among 19th-century organs, I'm sure that Hill organs are among the best made
in the world.....

2   Congratulations on your CD. It really is first class. What a wonderful range of different sounds and beautiful combinations, especially in Ampt's "The Silver Stars". There you created a fabulous, shimmering texture to your playing that is very rarely heard - perhaps because few organs or organists can produce it. Before I listened to it I thought that 29 different pieces would be too light on, insubstantial. But they are not, thanks in part to the way you have bound the program together with "In Dulci Jubilo" and "Es ist ein Ros" and the lovely singing......I had not previously heard of some of the nineteenth century French pieces.
