(Noehren recorded some of the Brahms, Opus 122 for Lyrichord
[LLST 7123] on the instrument. For a chuckle, look for another
Noehren Lyrichord recording [LLST 7121] of some large works of
Max Reger, including the fiendishly difficult Opus 73 Variations,
made on two large Danish organs, BUT with a cover photo showing
the Howe organ case!)
