English ,Kemp: Stormin' Norma Vol 3 | |
|||||||
|
|||||||||
|

Norma the Dunedin Town Hall Organ is a large & impressive instrument. It is a rare example of a symphonic organ in which conventional organ sounds are combined with orchestral tone colours and unique percussion effects. Featured here in the last volume of the Stormin' Norma trilogy are more works carefully picked to exhibit the capabilities of this fine organ. Dunedin based Kemp English is one of New Zealand's leading concert performers. Renowned as an exuberant entertainer, he is much in demand throughout the country. "There's a line from an old Frank Sinatra song which goes "The best is yet to come". Well - it's here! Volume Three of "Stormin' Norma" and a worthy successor to the previous two it assuredly is, with the redoubtable Kemp English in command of this incredible instrument, and a varied and imaginative selection of favourites old and new. I could short-circuit this review by simply saying "you must buy this CD" - but your editor expects more!" (Organ News) Track list 01. Crown Imperial March William Walton(1902 — 1983)arr.
