During the Victorian era English organ building and organ music experienced a flourishing in every way equal to that on the Continent.

Ben van Oosten, a proven expert in the field of late romantic organ artistry, now turns to this music. Performing on the magnificent Willis organ in the Salisbury Cathedral, he offers us a fascinating introduction to a long-forgotten epoch and its organ music.
