This review is from: Plays the Organ at St Andrew's Cathedral, Honolulu (Audio CD)

I may be a bit biased, but I can't rate a CD by Frederick Swann with less than 5 stars but I have to say that the recording quality is a bit of dissapointment (one wouldn't expect this of the prestigious Gothic label, but then again it isn't recorded by Gothic but by a local studio).

Anyhow, this CD is good, clean organfun. Interesting pieces, of wich I liked Sowerby's passcagalia the most, intricate and complex music that would suit the better American organist the most. Of course, Fred does an excellent job (what else would you expect from someone who has given more than a 1000 f.*.* concerts!)in playing and registrationtechnique alike. The organ is also marvellous but isn't as large as the organ featured in the 2nd Hawaii volume, yet it has more dignity. And I have to say.... this Hawaian baby has some tongues!
