Orange Blossom Special

Post by Uncle Al »

Loretta Muralt Holstein performs The Orange Blossom Special on the
organ to the delight of the audience at the Kate's Kids for the Cure
benefit concert at Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church in Milwaukie,
Oregon on March 13, 2010.

Not to bad for a Classical/Church organ - :wink: :wink:

Wow! I thought that was a train!
But is of course a piece about a train.

Here's a Leicester Square Odeon CD on USA eBay, if you're interested Uncle Al...

I've heard this organ live a few times and it was certainly a sight when all the lighting in the art deco ends was slowly changing colour. But no kilts were evident.

Wow again! I just played that and then rigged it up on the HiFI. Gosh she's phenomanal! It brought tears to my eyes. Thanks very much for that link Uncle Al. It's years since I heard that number and NEVER like that!

Just been giving it a few more playings. Sure blows away all the other U-Tube offerings of the tune nearby.

Just got my new computer, which has much more capacity. I might even be able to burn this to disk, that's if Loretta doesn't mind of course.
