Piet Post, Composer
Most British cathedral organs are large romantic instruments but with a remarkable versatility, and Derrett’s enterprising programme exploits all the colours available on the fine Chester organ. Derrett balances familiar items with newer works, and gives superb, energetic performances. The recording is clear but dull: it lacks richness and atmosphere. '
