The Diapason “The twenty selections on this intriguing disc are arranged as the courses of an elaborate banquet … Three chorale preludes of Bach (the Mixed Salad!!) are sensitively played; Grant Edwards has a fine sense of registration. … The Bédard piece is eminently suited for either recital or service use, and very much worth hearing. … Grant Edwards gives an excellent accounting of the 1994 Bond organ and his own ability at the console.” – Charles Huddleston Heaton
