...Garbutt played through the difficult and diverse piece with clarity and poise.James E. Goldschmidt ’09 played another famous piece to finish the evening in Charles-Marie Widor’s Toccata in F-Major. The typically majestic piece suffered a little from a slow and inconsistent tempo and a few errors, but the performance was still a worthy one.Though not as dramatic as a great horror flick, the Halloween organ concert still had its moments.

The song starts with a pristine beat and xylophone line and then enters a trance-like mood as Sciubba echoes in French over dreamy, subtle synth. At its halfway mark, it picks up pace with steady bass and sends the dreamy feeling of the song to a crescendo...
