By: adythepianoteacher on Apr, 08 2011 this is not a good representation of this wonderful piece of music. The organ playing is too pedantic, too slow, little or no nuancing or phrasing.It all sounds the same so there is no build up to the climactic moments.

By: spottedmetal on Apr, 12 2014 Wonderful, dynamic performance! Unfortunately it needs to be imaginatively reconstructed from the scratchy, low-fidelity recording.

By: mrorgan on Mar, 08 2018 I like his treatment of the last two bars. Most others fly through it, even though I think the score suggests to keep moving...
