Iain Quinn - The Cathedral Organ: Reuter Organ Co. Op. 2210, The Cathedral of St. John, Albuquerque (2006)

Reviews the Santa Fe New Mexican: "Expand your horizons from the church into the concert hall, and hear some first-rate music-making, too. Quinn . . . plays works made for big basilicas -- including Dupré's gorgeous, powerful Placare Christe servuilis . . . He offers concert music such as Busoni's demanding Praeludium (Basso Ostinato) and Doppelfuge, an intelligent and beautifully expansive reading of Franck's Pièce Héroïque, Homilius' charming Prelude in G Major, and Lemare's violet-scented Andantino in D-flat . . . Quinn knows the St. John's huge, recent Reuter organ like the back of his hand, and he has an uncanny ability to meld technique with heart. Listen to his excellent arrangement of Rachmaninoff's delicate, difficult Barcarolle, the insouciance with which he tosses off Reger's imperial Introduction adn Passacaglia, and the rapture he brings to Howells' angelic Master Tallis' Testament, and you'll never think again that organs are stuffy. Raven's lively on-site sound is the icing on the cake."
