Performed with “authority and stylish aplomb” (Jed Distler, classsicstoday.com) this set of historic organ performances has once again be made available (May 2005) as part of the Eloquence series of the Decca label, and is sold as individual CDs rather than only as a boxed set of five as was the case in the 1998 Argo release. The 2005 release has updated CD booklet covers and disc graphics, but the disc contents are digitally identical to the 1998 CDs.
This is a five CD collection of music Gillian Weir recorded in the 1970's and release originally on LPs, which were re-released in CD format in 1998 after her being awarded Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire. The music covers a broad range of styles, countries, and time periods. Dame Gillian's insightful and fun recollections of the making of the recordings are included in the program notes.
These CDs can be ordered from buywell.com.
Catalog numbers for volumes 1 through five are 460 1862, 460 1872, 460 1882, 460 1892, and 460 1902 respectively.
