Haven't heard her 1976 set, Fergus. Any good? Where were they recorded?

Recorded on the Cavaillé-Coll Organ of the Eglise Saint-Francois de Sales, Lyon if that means anything to you Simon....I will let you know my thoughts when I get a listen to the set.

It does indeed. M-C Alain recorded her later set on one of the smaller C-C organs as well, and while I can see the reason for that, the hifi and organ nerd part of me misses the 32' reeds.

I have Kempff's Schubert cycle and it is gorgeous, it is well worth having, I have been tempted to get his Schumann cycle too but have yet to do so. Enjoy.

Building up a good collection of ye olde music Fergus, I see. You must really like them, are you buying them on Amazon?
