Beautifully registered and played, Kirill: bravo! Willan's organ music is so beautifully crafted and you have a real affinity with his hymn tune Preludes. (I know you like to improvise . . . but there is one improvisation by Willan that I would love to have heard. His daughter writes about growing up with him in her book ('The Well-Tempered Listener: Growing up with Musical Parents') and she is able to offer insights into Willan that no-one else could. Most memorable is the scene the evening after her mother’s unexpected death, when Willan sat down at his piano. “He must have played non-stop for at least half an hour. It was music that I had never heard before, and it was transcendentally lovely, ethereal. I asked him what it was, and he said, very quietly, ‘I was just thinking of your mother’.”)
