The Christ Church organ was built by Hill, Norman & Beard in 1970 with 16 stops, using some pipes from previous organs plus some neo-baroque sounds typical of the 1960's and '70's (Chimney Flute and Fifteenth on open-foot voicing, like the Royal Festival Hall organ). In 1995, HNB moved some loud stops from the Great to a new double case in the nave, 6 stops were added, and the tone was refined. In summer 2015 the nave organ was re-voiced to produce a more robust tone. |
For Arthur Wills' Lullaby for a Royal Prince you will find just a snippet on the
Presto Classical website. The organist is his pupil Robert Crowley, on the Ely Cathedral organ that they both know so well: |
