TRINITY CATHEDRAL
the cathedral of the
episcopal diocese of ohio
2 October, 2012
My dear Dan,
I find it difficult to express in strong enough terms my admiration and appreciation for that magnificent organ you and your colleagues have created for Arborlawn Church.
I was completely won over by it, and found it deeply satisfying to play. It’s outstanding features are too numerous to mention, I think immediately of the warm foundations, the cohesive choruses, the gorgeously varied flutes, the thrilling reed choruses, the superb solo reeds (soft and loud), and the comprehensive pedal division. This instrument truly “has it all”. Most of all it is a truly musical and singing instrument. My hat is off to all of you – count me as a proud card-carrying member of the Dan Garland fan club!
It was a joy and honor to be part of the dedication festivities for this remarkable organ.
Keep up the great work, as I know you will. I look forward to the next time we cross paths, hoping it will be soon.
This brings my heartfelt admiration and gratitude.
As ever,
Todd
