Various Artists - Tribute to Yuko Hayashi - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Classical

This is the first recording of Richards, Fowkes opus 16. It is located in Goodson Chapel at the Duke University Divinity School. The chapel space presents a warm acoustical environment, allowing the organ to project a solid but unforced sound. The new organ is a gem among the extraordinary collection of organs at Duke. InchYuko Hayashi (1929-2018) taught me how to reach graciously into the hearts of listeners. She taught me how touch could shape a phrase, how variety in attack and could make the organ Inchspeak,Inch how to manage wind, how to make a room seem larger and more reverberant.Inch (Christa Rakich) Christa Rakich is Visiting Professor of Organ at Oberlin Conservatory in Ohio.
