Anna about the song: “One of the soundtracks that I’ve performed most in the past 6 months is Test Drive (from “How To Train Your Dragon”) by John Powell. This is one of the earlier transcriptions I wrote, and I have used it extensively to illustrate the difference between different organs. It’s quite useful to have one piece to use as a comparison point, so I post little videos of this wherever I’m playing to demonstrate how radically different the same piece of music can sound depending on the kind of instrument.
For me, this piece feels like an instant serotonin boost. There is a great crescendo where you get to take the organ from relatively quiet to earth-shatteringly loud over the course of about 30 seconds, and I always say that playing that part feels a bit like flying a dragon! It gives me head-to-toe goosebumps.“
