ORGAN RECITAL
BACH, HANDEL AND WAGNER The free organ recital on Sunday evening attracted an audience much smaller than the merit of tlie programme deserved. Mr. Barnett played some splendid examples of pure organ music, the “Great” Prelude and Fugue in G by Bach, and the Largo and Allegro from Handel’s concerto, “The CuckoO and the Nightingale,” a transcription of the “Forest Murmurs” from “Siegfried” and Alec Rowley’s ScherzoCaprice and Homage Hymn, were also very enjoyable; and popular taste was considered in the playing of Wolstenholme’s “Question and Answer,” Raft’s “La Fileuse,” and “Carillon’s” by Faulkes.
