Awards and reviews

March 2018

David Leigh makes much of Franck’s Grande pièce symphonique and Edwin Lemare’s shape-shifting Second Organ Symphony, the latter’s preoccupation with counterpoint realised with graceful aplomb. Fernando Germani’s sprightly Toccata, the evocative set of Three Introductory Voluntaries by former organist- in-residence Jonathan T. Horne, and Eoghan Desmond’s sincere Four Simple Chorale Preludes complete a rewarding, superbly recorded recital.
