Description
JAV 102 Great Organ Builders, Volume 2 Richard Morgan
Opus 836 at St. Peters Episcopal Church in Morristown, New Jersey, demonstrates the emergence of Harrisons distinctive personal style - keenly-voiced 8 diapasons, a strong octave and brilliant mixture in the Great, a clear pedal, and a fiery Swell. These brilliant sounds roll down the long nave at St. Peters, lending a stately grandeur to the repertoire here, appropriately paced by Richard Morgan. Duprés "Cortege and Litanie," Howells "Siciliano for a High Ceremony," and Francks "A-minor Choral" benefit especially from this sonic environment.
