Great European Organs no 97
Simon Hogan, organ.
Priory Records.
"Simon Hogan has put together an interesting and thought provoking programme here. The programme is a big ask for both player and instrument and both acquit themselves admirably. Simon Hogan is a fine player and the considerable technical demands of this recital are met with aplomb. An excellent recording- there is great clarity but also a natural warmth to the sound."

Messe Solennelle
The choir of Southwell Minster, directed by Paul Hale, with Simon Hogan & Hilary Punnett, organ.
Regent Records.
'Why would Southwell Minster choir travel to Normandy to record the double organ masses of Vierne and Langlais? The answer becomes plain in the first bar. Sées Cathedral has two fine Cavaillé-Coll organs enhanced by a rich acoustic. Add to that crisp, vibrant singing from the choir under Paul Hale and commanding organ playing by Simon Hogan and Hilary Punnett and the result is extraordinary.' [Yorkshire Post]
