November/December 2008
My other organ pick is a generous (77 min) Christmas organ special, Adeste Fideles, from Thomas Laing-Reilly on the vast tonal palette of the IV/68 Hope Jones/Walker organ of St Cuthbert's, Edinburgh (DCD34077). From prolix WT Best through the German and French baroque
to Demessieux, the English twentieth-century romantic and Garth Edmundson, no period is left unplundered; you can even blow your speakers with Pierre Cochereau's Adeste Fideles variations improvisation, transcribed by Jeremy Filsell.
