George Whitefield Chadwick Organ Music
Parker Ramsay, the first American to serve as Organ Scholar at King’s College, Cambridge, records rarely heard organ works composed by George Whitefield Chadwick (1854-1931), the famed American known for his symphonic and chamber works and who led the New England Conservatory 1897-1930. Ramsay plays Aeolian-Skinner op. 1257 of 1955 at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina, tonally finished by G. Donald Harrison 10 months before his death as the last large organ he completed. It was restored in 2009 with no tonal changes.
