Our “Society Spot” radio program on Fine Music Sydney (102.5 FM) at 5 pm on Saturday 8 May 2021 will feature a small selection of the large number of organs to be found in the Scottish capital Edinburgh.

Some of the instruments have been much interfered with over the years, but there are notable exceptions, including the 1757 Snetzler organ and the fine Lewis instrument which concludes the program.

We’ll hear the following works on the organs shown:

March from “Ode to Saint Cecilia’s Day” (Handel) - McEwan Hall (Hope-Jones, 1897, much rebuilt)

Concerto in G, BWV 592 (Bach) – Movements 1 and 3 – St Cuthbert’s Church (Hope-Jones, 1899, much rebuilt)

Voluntary (Walond) – Lodge Canongate Kilwinning (Snetzler, 1757)

Angel Scene from “Hansel and Gretel” (Humperdinck, trans. Lemare) – St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral (Willis, 1879, revoiced)

Fantaisie in E flat (Saint-Saens) – St Stephen’s Church Centre (Willis, 1880)

Variations on an Original Theme (Hesse) – St Andrew’s and St George’s Church (Wells-Kennedy, 1984)

Sonata No. 4 in B flat (Mendelssohn) – Broughton St Mary’s (Lewis, 1882
