Following soon after Jennifer Bate’s critically acclaimed first recording on SOMM of Samuel Wesley Organ Music (SOMMCD 036 – see earlier in catalogue), here is a highly intriguing and enjoyable companion. Both CDs were recorded from First Editions or Manuscripts. Recorded on the organs of St. James’s Church, Bermondsey and The Brangwyn Hall, Swansea.
Jennifer Bate – Organ
Jennifer Bate has, as ever, been careful to match all the works on this disc to instruments which make ideal vehicles for her chosen composers, all strong representatives of early 19th century English organ music. She was critically acclaimed for her first SOMM recording (SOMMCD 036) ‘Samuel Wesley Organ Music’.
