    Sorabji: Organ Symphony No. 2 - Toccata from its finale...



    Has anyone ever heard organ playing quite like this? - and from a 19 year old organist?...

    I hope you intended the modern, reinverted interpretation of "fulsome" in your comment there.

        Phenomenal playing, for sure. Have you been able to make contact, other than via your Youtube comment?

          Yes, I've written to him. I've only heard about him very recently but I thought that I simply had to write an email of encouragement to him. Kevin Bowyer, of all people, is thrilled by this performance! (and he's the only other organist ever to have played it).

              Indeed so! Here he is back in 2015 with a more "conventional" programme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOkLF2xm05c .
