BBC Choral Evensong: St Edmundsbury Cathedral 1988 (Paul Trepte)

[@johnr6168]

I know that his organ has had a major relatively recent rebuild by Harrisons but have to say the 1970 work by Nicholson's (on this recording) resulted in a fine sounding instrument despite it containing five makes and ages of pipework. Almost all the Swell pipework from that organ was been retained in the Harrison rebuild as well so some pipework from the other divisions such as most of the Great upperwork.

John R - they got rid of the Trompetta Real on the solo and the Pedal Contra Ophicleide . The rebuilt organ I think sounds great but hasnt got much Oomf in the pedal

Oh my....elongated Gloria on the Nunc...had never heard this version!

We like to bring new delights!

It's the Jubilate Gloria. We do it like this at Wakefield as well.

NB the bass soloist at "And his mercy"...

Blimey- he comes in on a B rather than an F#! Quickly recovers though, but I bet poor old Trepte shed a stone in that moment as it was a live broadcast!

Isn’t Trepte at Ely?

He is now but he wasn't in 1988.
