Interesting decision by the organist to play the phrase after "magnified me" relative softly and in a detached style. Murrill wrote this phrase at ff with no indication that it was to be detached. The choir entry after is very quiet so I can understand why it might be tempting to try and be more delicate on the organ, but it isn't what is written and loses the effect of this quiet angelic choral sound singing "and holy us his name" after the pomp of the organ phrase ceases. St John's version on here seems to handle that element much better. Other than that a very fine choir.
