Great Australasian Organs VII
|
The Rieger Organ of Christchurch Town Hall played by Martin Setchell.
Lots of pieces you don't hear every day. Definitely not one of those CDs that could be used to 'dry out a martini'. Tracklist
This (CD) I can thoroughly recommend as ideal in its kind. Get hold of it if you can Bruce Steele, Organ Australia magazine 2010

Cardboard Cathedral Organ Capers
Real artistry . . . it's fun listening to such splendid playing, meticulous and flawless . . . Bruce Steele, Organ Australia, Winter 2014
Behind the scenes:
The Christchurch Transitional Cathedral, more commonly known as the Cardboard Cathedral, was built in 2013 in response to the need for a temporary building when the original Anglican Cathedral in Cathedral Square was badly damaged in a series of devastating earthquakes from 2010 to 2012. Designed by the Japanese architect Shigeru Ban, it is built mostly of cardboard tubes, timber, and structural steel, with a concrete floor. Shipping containers provide side offices. The north-end triangular window design includes 49 1.2 metre-tall panels and incorporates images from the ChristChurch Cathedral's original rose window. Ralph Cullen, of Keyboard Music Systems, installed the Rodgers Infinity 484 digital organ in 2013, and this is the first CD to be made on the organ of this series in New Zealand. A wonderful way to celebrate the rebuild of our beautiful Christchurch. Tracklist:

A side note on the recording:
Making a CD in a public space is a challenge that organists are all too familiar with; but trying to record sound tracks in what amounts to a gargantuan building site must be right up there with some of the most patience-demanding tasks ever.
For a week beforehand we arrived at 5am in the so-called lull between night-work diggers, scrapers, lifters, loaders, crushers, concrete mixers, tractors heavy haulage vehicles and every other large mechanical beast known to man - and before the arrival of the morning's shift of day workers. A couple of hours each morning provided enough peace to lay down the 18 tracks. The complete recording with sound engineer Mike Clayton was a marathon session that lasted through the final night. The Cardboard Cathedral polycarbon roof with the timber-lined tubes is waterproof but not soundproof; in fact, not even enough to stifle the sound of people talking outside. With a set of traffic lights on the One Way road system a mere dozen or so steps away from the front door of the cathedral, it was a matter of timing the recordings between light changes and the constant flow of vehicles all determinedly doing their bit for the rebuild of Christchurch.
But it's still a happy thought that this CD is a small part of that rebuild ~ and indeed a very brave New World.

A Taste of Shropshire
|
Pipe organ CD recorded by Martin Setchell on the 1764 Snetzler organ of St Laurence, Ludlow, England, in 2007
“The last work in this pot-pourri is a pot-pourri in its own write (right). Magnificently entitled Introduction & Grand Concert Variations on a Hymn Tune by Sir Arthur Sullivan (the not-so-young-person's guide to the organ) it lasts a good 16 minutes. It is a sweeping up of a gross of different styles and a dozen quotes from famous organ and orchestral works. Too many to itemise – but look out for Widor – you cannot really miss him. Just the sort of piece to bring the house down . . . John France, Music Web International

The link will open up in a new window The celebrated New Zealand organist Martin Setchell plays superbly throughout; he is an impeccable stylist, with nimble fingers (and feet) and is clearly having a jolly good time as well. This enjoyable disc – something for that Sullivan collector who already has everything else. Robin Gordon-Powell, for Sir Arthur Sullivan Society magazine.
