For this first video im playing the Marian hymn 'Mary, crowned with living light' which shows off the main tonal colours on the organ as typically used to accompany congregational hymn singing.

Many thanks to the organist and officials for allowing me access to this fine Compton organ.

NOTE: this is purely my interest in order to make sure that these fine organs are archived forever and I do not make any monetary profit by this video being on dailymotion.
