In Light or Darkness


For its recording premiere, Stephen Buzard sits at the 2008 Buzard Pipe Organ (Op. 37) with a superb choice of repertoire. Second Presbyterian Church in Bloomington, Illinois rings with the music of Mendelssohn, Paulus, Vierne, Reubke, Howells, and Schubert in bright registrations that do full justice to the instrument built by the performer’s father.
