George Whitfield Chadwick: Organ Music (Raven OAR-154)
Raven announces a new CD recording, George Whitfield Chadwick: Organ Music (OAR-154).
The disc features Parker Ramsey, the first American to serve as organ scholar for King’s College, Cambridge, UK, performing works of Chadwick (1854–1931) on the organ of Byrnes Auditorium, Winthrop University, Rock Hill, South Carolina.
The D. B. Johnson Memorial Organ was built as Opus 1257 by Aeolian-Skinner in 1957 and was restored in 2009 by Orgues Létourneau without tonal alteration. (See The Diapason, July 2009, pages 1, 24–25.)
