This reminds of when my holy-roller brother was showing me around the religious college he worked at and when we came to the chapel someone was playing one of the Mendelssohn organ sonatas. The organist didn't know we were there and I don't remember how I knew it was a Mendelssohn sonata, but the sound in the otherwise empty chapel was huge and I got a lump in my throat and good old heathen me turned to my brother and said "Now that is my religion!" Is that a sappy enough memory? Not ashamed of it, and still love solo organ music. Wish it was me playing sitting in the middle of all that sound (says he of 20 fingers and four feet)!!!!!
