About

Our pyrotechnic world tour of organs continues apace. Fresh from Volume 10 recorded in Canada, Christopher Herrick now heads south to unleash the power of the Lay Family Concert Organ in Dallas, Texas. One of the largest mechanical concert organs ever built, this 4,535-pipe monster dominates the stage of the Eugene McDermott Concert Hall and proves the perfect vehicle for a wide-ranging programme of unabashed new-world swagger. Alongside such iconic works as Coplands Preamble (composed to mark the UN adoption of the Declaration of Human Rights) and the French Americana of Langlais and Widor we have a selection of jazz-infused works which allow both player and instrument to develop a whole new aspect of the organ repertoire. The programme concludes with Joseph Jongens epic Sonata eroca, a veritable landmark in twentieth-century organ-writing and one which leads us out in a thunderous blaze of heroic bravura.

Reviews

22nd July 2006

Christopher Herrick, playing on the Lay Family Concert Organ in Dallas, Texas, gives his recital an American slant...Widor's robust piece provides a link with various Parisian organists, among them Alexandre Guilmant, whose Choral et Fugue is one of the more subdued, sober pieces. But the recital overall...has a festive flavour, which Herrick fully relishes.

Cathedral Music

As we have come to expect from Christopher Herrick and Hyperion everything is done to the highest standard. The varied and exciting programme is convincingly played, making full use of the extensive tonal spread of the organ, whilst the accompanying programme notes are both comprehensive and interesting … another fine organ firework display, which I’m certain readers will enjoy
