Set in the rolling countryside of Cumbria and within a short distance of the coast lies the small town of St. Bees. In the Priory church is a superb Father Willis organ which we believe is receiving its first commercial recording. The music chosen by Daniel Cook, the assistant master of the music at Salisbury Cathedral is all English and suits the organ well. Most of the programme is new to the catalogues.
