Specs for the The Julia Irene Kauffman Casavant Organ, Opus 3875

Posted by Reference Recordings on
 June 29, 2015

In David Hurwitz’s fantastic new review of the Kansas City Symphony’s Saint-Saëns “Organ” Symphony recording, he states “I do wish, though, that Reference Recordings had included a stop list in the booklet. The instrument has some interesting timbres and I would have liked to know what resources it calls upon to make them.” Unfortunately these specs were not able to fit in the included liner notes, but in case anyone else might be curious, we wanted to share them here:
