J. S. Bach / Two Orgelbuchlein Chorales

[pcma1970]

Wonderful performances

[rgeraredz]

Excellent playing. I think Schlickers are a challenge to record under any circumstances. Is the specification posted somewhere?

Hi, Paul!

Here I leave to you to compare the registration you employed with the one I do for the first of these two chorale preludes:

Bourdon or Coppelflöte 8' + Nasat 2 2/3' (or 1 1/3') or Sifflöte 1', in any of the three cases with Tremulant doux.

Regards from Brazil

Hi Marcelo. Thanks for letting me know. I'm going to make more clips soon and most likely, will re-record this. The reed on this organ sounds much better live than it does on this recording. I'm using, actually, a small camera that doesn't have all the fancy adjustments for audio and visual adjustments.

I've been remiss in practicing these past few weeks, so back on the organ bench I go starting January 2nd. All the best to you! Paul

Very beautiful. Very musical.

I know Nothing about Classical Music, but this piece took the breath out of me !

Peace.

Perhaps I'm just not so picky, but I enjoyed both of them! If the reed sounds like a trapped hornet, at least it's a musical hornet!

I liked the "If thou but suffer" one better of these two. For some reason the reed stop that you used on the first one seemed a bit off. But, I've always loved "If Thou But Suffer" anyway.

[paulbinko]

You know, your are right. Reed sounds like a hornet trapped in a bee's nest on the recording. Sounds much better live in the room. I may re-record this tomorrow using a different registration!

Would love to hear it without the hornet! LOL
