    Here is an mp3 transfer of Leo Sowerby playing his piece Carillon, H.
    134
    (1917) on the Austin at St. James Episcopal Cathedral, Chicago in
    1946. The disc was made for a
    commercial concern named Diapason Records--no relation to the
    magazine. It is
    slightly abridged to fit a single side of a 78 rmp disc--the other
    side and a
    whole second disc were devoted to his Prelude on "The King's Majesty"
    H. 277
    (1944). I posted this--one of the most famous/popular of Leo's 90-odd
    works for the organ--on an pipe organ related list-serv--but thought
    one or two of this group;s devotees might enjoy it. This disc is
    almost by defination a rarity--and this is a dub I received decades
    ago from the late and legendary chamber music collector/merchant
    marine, Tom Clear. http://rapidshare.com/files/144012398/SowerbyplaysCarrilon1946.mp3
