He could not confine himself to the assigned territory. Wild or not, we are all children of nature. Whether successful or n…

His performance that day was one of the very best Offices of The Hermetic Organ—a wild, acoustic affair that takes full advantage of the rich reeds, flutes, and horns of these two outstanding instruments.
