Pierre Lauwers Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 At that point I think we begin to go round and round; in a better world, we should now gather an go for an organ tour in Germany, where I could design a little program featuring Trost, Wagner, Sterzing, Creutzburg organs plus the only (little) Scheibe organ we still have....And end up the other side of the Atlantic in Rochester (NY) to visit the Go-Art Casparini organ. About the language question I open a new thread. Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Harvey Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Chaps, can we take this discussion on mixtures to another topic please - this (very fine) topic is getting diverted from its original purpose of sharing Youtube clips. Perhaps one of the proponents of the mixture debate can start a new topic or ressurrect one of the old topics on this subject? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre Lauwers Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Agreed. Here is an interesting one: http://pipedreams.publicradio.org/gallery/...casparini.shtml Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Allison Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 whilst slightly bored this afternoon, I came upon this clip Its been said that the original composer, who I am a big fan of, wrote this piece in about 1972, for a "concept album". It was recorded originally on the organ in St. Giles, Cripplegate, then had a drum and minimoog synth part added to it in the studio. The chap who is playing it, has made a CD or 2, of some of the "prog rock" of that era, played on a pipe organ (not a toaster) and also a piano some will like it, and some will be mortified no doubt.

giwro Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Just to give you all a little taste of what things look like on this side of the pond on Easter in my church: Not what most of you are accustomed to, I'm sure, but hopefully it gives you a bit of an idea of what things are like in my church....

Christopher Allsop Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Reminded me of the existence of this: http://itunes.apple.com/au/album/instructi...gels/id80091825 by David Bedford, recorded at Worcester in the 70s (by the Rolling Stones mobile studio) with Mike Oldfield on Guitar and Bedford on the organ I think. Extraordinary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre Lauwers Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 And here is a splendid northern german early baroque organ: the Scherer organ of Tangermünde (1624), with a Fantasia by Froberger. Note the singy, sweet tones, and the incredibly good reed stops: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKObxWWNOgw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidh Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Here's one unusual one; a video on which the organ blower is seen, but not the organist. A fine performance of Bach's Little Fugue, BWV 578, played by Willem Tanke, with a beautifully clear organ tone and very clear contrapuntal lines. ... and another unusual one. The organ in the small Dutch town of Zuidwolde is to be restored. The children of the village, led by the Mayor, process from the local organ builder's premises a few hundred yards away, to the church, and return to the workshop carrying the pipes.

MusingMuso Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 We're back in business!!!!!! Just when they think they've taken over, grab the "music group" drummer by the scruff of the neck and try this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwOQT3ASuNo...feature=related I did recently ask a question about young Chinese pianists possibly becoming organists, and now we know at least part of the answer. Love that console; it just needs sails fitting to it......it looks like junk. MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusingMuso Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Now here is something VERY interesting, from an organist that I bet few have heard of in the UK. There are some awful performances of the Bruhns E minor, a lot of very hurried and ill thought out performances of Bach and a lot of weary performances of the Lang "Tuba Tune," but here are three links which demonstrate a remarkable musical and artistic talent from James Pollard; a UK organist living and working in Amsterdam, but originally from Burnley. I was absolutely thrilled to hear this, not least because I am fairly certain that the organist in question and myself met in unlikely circumstances in a bar in Burnley about a decade ago, and discovered that we shared a mutual friend, without knowing that the mutual friend knew two organists each unknown to the other! (Bizzare!) The Bruhns is utterly magnificent, and played on the Bavo Orgel at Haarlem, with excellent sound quality. The Bach C Major (the "Weimar") is so wonderfully controlled and musical.....an object lesson in Bach playing at the correct tempo. The third clip is as magical as it is entertaining, because Mr Pollard CHANGES THE NOTES, to outstanding effect!! Now, if only Mr Lang had written it this way, it would have been a lot better. Enjoy. BRUHNS BACH LANG MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre Lauwers Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 BWV 545 a by Gerhard Weinberger on the Volkland organ of Muhlberg. Volkland was established in Erfurt, and built this organ 1729, during Bach's time..... .....And see for yourself how this thing sounds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QItIkyzWxw YESSS, once Again !!!!!!!
