timothyguntrip Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I'm not sure if it is the same work - but there is one on IMSLP here for anyone else who may be looking - in the fifth volume. VA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Furse Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 A grand piece- but where are you going to find the piercing cornetas, massed trompetería and variety of regal stops in your neck of the woods ? Plus, of course, the clanking action, to give verisimilitude to the performance ? As far as I’m aware, there is still not an instrument in the UK that can do real justice to this repertoire- although there were plans for one in London some time ago. I hope I’m wrong.

AJJ Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 You'd be amazed what sounds you can get from a delicately out of tune Victorian job in a slightly cold and damp church. And as for clanking actions - 'plenty to choose from! A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Furse Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Perhaps not. I was most fortunate to be able to practise on one (http://www.npor.org.uk/cgi-bin/Rsearch.cgi?Fn=Rsearch&rec_index=A00698), in my youth. It benefitted from an appropriately extravagant acoustic, too, in a gorgeous building. I am glad to see it has been maintained, as I heard there was a distinct possibility of its ‘demise’.
