GRESS-MILES: "AN ELEGANT INSTRUMENT"

" ... All claims made in advance proved to be true indeed. The program had been astutely prepared and selected to show how handily the organ can translate the distinctive styles of writing and performance, French, German, classic, romantic, modern. The test came off with flying tonal colors, and a particularly pristine clarity in the early compositions. ... All in all, an elegant instrument in an elegant setting." .
