Nov 26, 2008 - for example the Gabler organ in Weingarten has 12 rank mixtures and don`t forget "La force" 49 f. ;-) but it`s only th C

Jun 8, 2009 - Exelsior!!!

anonymusum Says:

Jun 15, 2009 - Grat! I had lessons on just this organ and I can tell you it is a beast and very hard to play when using the couples. Every fast run is like bodybuilding for the fingers.

organist12345 Says:

Jul 18, 2009 - actually just 2. I bet you dont know this organ at all.

organist12345 Says:

Jul 18, 2009 - is there a recording of it. It sounds interestingly hair-raising!

Ntalikeris666 Says:

Jul 18, 2009 - Yea its true that i dont know much about this organ, but logically it has more than two. Since all manuals in most organs couple on the Hauptwerk there should at least be 3 of them just for the hauptwerk manual.

organist12345 Says:

Jul 19, 2009 - Ntalikeris666 Comment above mine which he removed was that he said there were lots of couplers on this organ. When in fact there are just 2.

Aug 31, 2009 - you can buy the 21st century bach dvds of john scott whiteley playing other bach pieces but there isnt a recording of it

organist12345 Says:

Aug 31, 2009 - If anyone wants to play this organ, its really quite easy, just ask the organist who is very nice and speaks english.

Guipianista Says:

Dec 25, 2009 - Excelente interpretação e um excelente organista !! Ficou 100% excelente !!

Jan 29, 2010 - anonymusum,How do the couplers work here? I know that you can't couple pedals to manuals on this organ but is it possible to couple all the manuals?

anonymusum Says:

Jan 29, 2010 - Yes, you can couple all the manuals on/to the main manual (Hauptwerk) - and it´s very hard to play fast runs then I tell you. On the other manuals you have less couples.

advisorC101 Says:

Jan 29, 2010 - Thank you for the information, is it hard to get permission to play this organ?

anonymusum Says:

Jan 29, 2010 - It´s nearly impossible - or let´s say: no! You must not forget, this organ has only two or three total tunings until the metal of many pipes will be broken. It´s very fragile, so they take more than good care.

advisorC101 Says:

Jan 29, 2010 - Oh dear.. So the deterioration is really that bad...

anonymusum Says:

Jan 29, 2010 - Ít´s normal. The old pipes are 300 years old now. So tuning is very dangerous. But they keep the church in a steady temperature - in winter and summer (!).

Mar 11, 2010 - There is a replica of this organ in Sweden! Try it! :P
