I was recently asked to assist in recording an organ recital at the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Godalming, Surrey. Together with my father, we set up two microphones, 30 metres of microphone cable, a mixing desk and two laptops to do the recording.
The church is due to be knocked down and replaced with a new church and adjoining apartment blocks later this year, and the owners wanted a record of how the Rushworth & Dreaper organ sounded in the beautiful auditorium of the current church (see right).
