In hindsight, I made this recording under bitter-sweet circumstances. It turned out that shortly after I recorded Jonathan Hope at Gloucester Cathedral in 2021, the organ would catastrophically break meaning it would never be heard again in its then form.
Nicholson & Co are going to undertake a renovation and restoration of the organ, and I look forward to hearing a pipe organ in this wonderful acoustic once again.

Making money is not my primary objective. After expenses are taken into consideration, remaining revenue is invested back into BEAUTY IN SOUND. Audio and visual equipment is expensive, and I also pay a fair fee to all recitalists who appear on BIS. This is why I regularly ask YOU to help, and I’m sorry for having to do so. I hope that you can all see the tangible improvements being made to BIS along our shared journey.
