The Grand Organ of Gloucester Cathedral (concert recorded in 2015) [plus CD]

Package Contains BluRay, NTSC DVD and Audio CD

This is Priory's 14th issue in their "Grand Organ Series." Jonathan Hope is the organist in this comprehensive and fascinating insight into this unique " neo classical"English organ. As with previous releases the full length programme is linked to the history of the building, the surrounds and the city of Gloucester. Recorded in stunning 5.1 surround sound and also stereo this production will be to the delight of all those with this hi-fi set up where the uncompressed sound of the organ within its huge acoustic will be ideal for this format.

In the Bonus features, Jonathan Hope gives the viewer a full demonstration of the individual stops and a full explanation of this instrument and its sounds and in another section he demonstrates the stops used for one particular work with the screen split four ways to see him from different camera angles. Filmed in high definition this release continues the broadcast standards of this best selling series and endorses the reviewer's comments that this is truly the "greatest series of organ music recordings in the history of the Gramophone."
