Hello, yes, it is a Christmas hymn, and, no, it can't be sung at any time of the year. The text goes down to the gregorian chant "Puer natus est" which is the introitus of Christmas. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, Andreas Ladach is the greatest german seller of used pipe organs. The 84-stop four-clavier Walcker is from The Liszt Academy of Music Budapest. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, it appeared at Edizioni de Santis No. DS 460, available for example here. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, the key is E flat major, so my guess is Bach BWV 622 "O Mensch bewein dein Sünde groß" from the Orgelbüchlein. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, more information about the organ built by Stiehr. The history is typical: Stiehr > Mockers > Roethinger > Schwenkedel > Haerpfer Cheers tiratutti

Hello, Thank you very much for that. I asked my russian colleague and he says that another possible translation is "over an uzbek folk theme" (über ein usbekisches Volksthema). Cheers tiratutti

Hello, the subtitle на народную узбекскую тему says something like "over a well-known uzbek theme" (über ein bekanntes usbekisches Thema). Cheers tiratutti

Hello, there is a short toccata on "At the Lamb's high feast" by Paul Manz. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, from 1870 to 1934 Widor (1844-1937) was organist at St. Sulpice. In 1934 he retired. 64 years ... Cheers tiratutti

Hello, there is a site named Drawings & Projects at the Dobson website. Cheers tiratutti

Hello again, if you meant BWV 659 then take a look at the autograph of the Achtzehn Leipziger Choräle. There you can see that Bach wrote the work with alto clef. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, I don't know exactly what you have downloaded. BWV 629 is "Erschienen ist der herrlich Tag" from the Orgelbüchlein. Perhaps another score? Wellknown is the use of tenor and alto clefs in the Griepenkerl-Edition of Bachs organ works published by Edition Peters. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, you wanted to know more about the organ. Built in 1910 by Link the organ is located at the Evangelische Pauluskirche Ulm. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, Alpirsbach was the first organ of Winterhalter with carbon trackers. The reason was the very wet climate at the medieval monastery church of Alpirsbach. I think he uses it for all his new organs. The organ of Feuerthalen also has carbon trackers. Very nice to play and it sounds marvellous. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, I searched for Andrews & Forster and found this thread. My info is not about an organ from 1850, but one of 1891. About 30km away from here (South-West Germany) the firm of Feenstra Orgelrestauratie sets up an organ of Forster & Andrews. The NPOR-Record is J00034 and it will be finished Easter. So I'm very happy in getting such an instrument into reach. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, Möseler published a version edited by Wolfgang Stockmeier. The last 4 bars (bar 108 2nd beat - 111) are marked and forte. This is what Diane Bish plays. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, I think it is a misunderstanding. Look at organ dispositions written in Dutch and you see that the couplers are all (!) reversed. In Dutch you have a coupler Pedal-Hoofdwerk which means that the Great sounds when you press a pedal key. In German terminology this would be named HW-Ped, in English Gt-Ped an in French G.O.-Ped. Therefore a disposition written in Dutch wich states a coupler HW-RP means the normal Positive to Great coupler. Beside this I would like to have both couplers RP-HW and HW-RP. Not becaues of the playing position but because of the usefullness as you stated with playing the accompaniment at the Great and doing the solo with Great and Positive coupled. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, you have not restricted your first statement to France. Moreover, Neewiller-près-Lauterbourg is a little village in France. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, oh dear, three exclamation marks. I hope you are joking. In 1767, Ferdinand Stieffell made an organ for Neewiller with the following disposition: Salicional 8' Bourdon 8' Prestant 4' Flûte 4' Doublette 2' Larigot 1 1/3' Fourniture III Cheers tiratutti

Hello, thank you for this information. And the error report. I ordered my copy now. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, the publisher is Bärenreiter. They have the complete organ works of Middelschulte in four volumes. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, nice thread. Thank you for posting about hungarian organs, music and musicians. Most works of Zsolt Gárdonyi are published by Möseler Verlag (for example the Mozart Changes), the Grand Choeur by Edition Merseburger. One little addition: Have a look at the organ music of Pikéthy Tibor (1884-1972). Mostly out of print but nice pieces. Cheers tiratutti

Hello, the following picture shows a portative organ with paper pipes made by a German amateur in 2010. Cheers tiratutti
