This remastered tribute to four centuries of organ music by American organist James B. Welch was stunningly recorded by Wilson Audiophile in 1978 at All Saints' Episcopal Church in Palo Alto, California, on a 1966 Flentrop organ, a two manual organ consisting of 22 ranks and 1144 pipes.

This album is a high-resolution digital transfer of material originating from an analogue master source. Due to the nature of analogue tape recording, it may contain artifacts or audio which uses a limited amount of the available dynamic range / frequency bandwidth of high-resolution digital audio. As such, it is offered as a high-resolution documentation of a historical release. Produced by: Wilson Audiophile Recordings, LLC Original recording engineer: David A. Wilson Project manager: Daryl C. Wilson Analogue to high definition digital transfer: Bruce Brown, Puget Sound Studios Transfer editing: Bruce Brown, Puget Sound Studios Sonic evaluation: David A. Wilson, Sheryl Lee Wilson, Daryl C. Wilson Speakers: Wilson Audio Alexandria XLF, two Thor’s Hammers Electronics: Apple Mac Mini, Amarra & Audirvana Plus, Weiss INT202, Audio Research DAC 8, Audio Research 40th Anniversary preamp, VTL Siegfried and / or D' Agostino Momentum amplifiers Cables: Audioquest Firewire, Transparent Opus For the session, Wilson used AKG 414 microphones in the hypercardiod pattern pioneered by the BBC, a 15ips, half-track Revox A77 with modified electronics and cabling and an Audio Research SP-3 preamp whose phono input was modified to a microphone input. With the AR's power supply separated and isolated from the chassis, Wilson says it sounded "dramatically better" than the stock unit.
