Another of Noel Rawsthorne's compositions, this time based on the Londonderry Air, which is also used as a hymn tune.
Enjoy.

Tony,
Thanks for insert showing what you were doing with your feet. I think you would be lost playing an organ like my Yamaha AR80 .. with pedals that don't come under the seat.

Hi Thanks Hugh. Actually, I can manage quite well on most pedalboards. I used to regularly play a Hammond L-100 (spinet style) in a church where I was organist. More recently, my home practice organ was a Cavendish portable - again a spinet-style 13 note pedalboard. My Nord C2D has the Nord Pedals 17 board - straight, flat and again short keys (just about long enough to "toe and heel" with care, not to mention the 13 note Hammond MIDI pedalboard I have lurking around the place, and used briefly on my piano + organ rig for recording some of the more contemporary worship songs. I could go on, but I won't. I can usually find my way round most pedalboards.
