HISTORIC ORGANS OF THE BAROSSA VALLEY, vol. 2
JOHN STILLER & CHRISTOPHER DEARNLEY

A further selection of works, some well known but most a refreshing change from the usual, played on some of the superb organs in this lovely part of South Australia.

The organs featured here are at: St John's, Tamunda (J E Dodd 1921); St Michael's Gnadenfrei/Marananga (W G Rendall 1880); Strait Gate Lutheran, Light Pass (J E Dodd 1925); St. Petri, Eden Valley (Laukhuff, c1900); Holy Trinity, Nuriootpa (Gebrude Walter, 1887); St Paul's Tamunda (J E Dodd 1928); St John;s, Ebenezer (D H Lemke 1875)

The booklet gives a history of each instrument, its builder and of the music on the CD.
