Samuel Bristow - Mendelssohn: 6 Organ Sonatas Op. 65 [CD] Nikolaus Harnoncourt The sessions that birthed itOllowing a successful concert series of Felix Mendelssohn's complete organ works at St Paul's Cathedral in 2021 Samuel Bristow marks the 30th anniversary of the installation of the Mander organs at Chelmsford Cathedral by recording Mendelssohn's revolutionary set of Organ Sonatas Op. 65.
