One of the world's top theatre organists, Simon Gledhill, was kind enough to share with us footage of his recent visit to David Shepherd's home in Holbeach, Lincolnshire which houses a 4/22 Pipe Organ.
Much of the instrument and the console comprise the 1936 instrument which comprised the Compton organ of the Paramount, Tottenham Court Road, now with added Wurlitzer and Kimball ranks. The instrument also features a Compton Melotone which Simon demonstrates throughout the video.
Simon plays us a lovely selection of music which includes:
I Feel a Song Coming On (Jimmy McHugh)
With a Song in My Heart (Richard Rodgers)
This Night was Made for Love (Jerome Kern)
(I Like New York in June) How About You? (Burton Lane)
