Help identifying organ works

[BillRussell]

Hi, I'm new to this forum. My brother, a church organist for the Philadelphia Cathedral-Basilica, recently died. I found a bunch of reel-reel tapes in his garage and am converting them to digital for his friends and relatives.

However, I am not a musician and can only identify some of the pieces. I'm looking for help in this area.

I have setup a web side for this purpose, http://wftjr.com, and the tapes are at http://wfrjr.com/rr/tapes/m.htm
there are directions there on how to contact me. There are about 7 concerts there with more to come.

In exchange for the help. I can offer playable CDs of the music if desired. (in small quantities)

Thanks in advance

Bill Russell

Hi Bill

Welcome to our forum. I too have started to listen to the selections and have bookmarked it so that I can help identify some of the pieces.

The recordings are absolutely splendid, considering they were on tape, and the organs are wonderful to hear.

thank you both.

Thank you, he was indeed a great organist.
