This CD is a treasure, not only because it is one of the last recordings made by Carlo Curley before his untimely death, but because it puts and keeps many pieces of organ literature 'on record' - pun NOT intended. Rest is peace, Carlo. We will keep our memory of you alive by your many recordings.

By: ragbin on Oct, 22 2010 A boisterous rendiition of a piece which, however, overstretches the organ's resources.
