Sounds Orchestral CD

Description

Organists Greg Morris and David Gibbs perform Gibbs’s transcriptions of Schubert’s Fifth and Mendelssohn’s Fourth symphonies at Blackburn Cathedral.

These duet arrangements highlight the classical balance and romantic lyricism of both works, utilizing the Cathedral organ’s orchestral palette to reimagine these nineteenth-century symphonic scores.
