5.0 out of 5 stars Simply very, very good., May 20, 2009

This review is from: Baroque Music for Brass and Organ (Audio CD)

If you like brass and orgen (as you would/could hear in a church ceremony, then this is for you. My wife chose two selections on this disc over 36 years ago, and we love to hear it often. She chose Jeremiah Clarke's two numbers....a funny thing about this...when we were married, the composition was credited to Henry Purcell, not Clarke. This mistake was many years later, proven to be Clarke's work. No matter, as whoever wrote the piece, did a great job.
