Definitely one to be enjoyed. A stunning piece of music.

I'm even luckier - not only have I performed it, I've performed it twice.

It's not an easy piece to play, but it's really rewarding to do.

The best bit in the last one I did was the organist. He was up at the organ console high above us (we were in St. David's Hall, Cardiff) and following the score very, very carefully between his entries - which are widely spaced apart.

Then he turned two pages instead of one...

I wish I'd seen it - but my Dad told me about it as he was in the audience.

Highly recommended.
