This recording presents a programme of music representing ten different countries from around the world. We take the long-haul flight from England to Hong Kong, and via an extremely circuitous route which no travel agent would fathom we visit Finland, France, Germany, the USA, Canada, Russia, New Zealand and finally, Ireland. It is all accomplished in under eighty enjoyable minutes by the young New Zealand organist Nigel Potts playing the outstanding and little-known Walker organ in the Church of the Sacred Heart, Wimbledon - a vast and imposing Catholic church in the south-west London suburb famous the world over for its summer tennis tournament. |
