For this first video im playing the hymn 'At the name of Jesus' to the beautiful tune 'Evelyn' which shows off the main tone colours for accompanying hymn singing.

Many thanks to the Director of Music at Golders Green 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.
