Thanks Lento,I didn't know that was what it is called,no expert me,but it was certainly a different,but not unpleasant,sound.
The word buzzbox made me chuckle.
If some cathedral organist releases an album called " I've got a Buzzbox and I'm going to use it", i promise to buy it.
ER knows what I am talking about !!
I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
All those jangling triplets just make me think of Beecham's comment about skeletons on roofs. I suspect I would have liked the triple concerto version.

Last week's Prelude and Fugue in A minor I admired from afar - brilliant but unattainable. Yesterday's performances of the two part Inventions were brilliant too, particularly because they were played by young players. Short and testing. Lovely. I enjoyed them, particularly Nos 1 in C, 8 in F major, 13 in A minor and 14 in B flat major. No 15 in B minor was probably the best played of the bunch. I had not listened to them for a long time and they struck me again most pleasantly.

Wonderful 25 mins or so wasn't it Padraig.
I have watched this episode 3 times already
I was puzzled by the mention of 'strange notes' towards the end of the Fugue in the description,I didn't hear any jarring dissonances.
The piece is nicknamed 'The Cathedral Prelude and Fugue' btw,I don't think this was mentioned on AoB
