One has only to read a selection of the glowing reviews from the previous eight CDs in this series performed by the musical genius that is Christopher Herrick to realise the potential enjoyment to be had from hearing this CD. The repertoire includes the majesty that is Widor's celebrated Toccata, a transcription of Bartok's extremely attractive Roumanian Folk Dances, and Bach's grandiose Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue in D minor.
