It is instructive to notice that of the twenty three or so
pieces given, only five or six were in fact transcriptions. Most of the pieces
would be perfectly at home in any recital given in the 21st century.
It is curious to note that Widors Toccata was obviously very popular
in 1928. It was not undiscovered until Francis Jackson played it at the Duchess
of Kents Wedding in York Minster.
