Yours is a name I haven't heard of, but from listening to this, you obviously have a lot of experience. Flawless.

This was the correct organ to play the Reubke on.

One day, I discovered I had coglioni grande when I was standing right in front of the Swell of the big A-S at Trinity, Copley Sq., Boston, when, right in the middle of changing the film in my camera, the Trompettes (7" wp) were blasting in my face (he-e-e-ellllo!). That didn't seem to phase me, ...

Visited and heard this organ for the first time in 1984, and still remember the big sound of the 16' Bombarde. Had the buzz saw effect. Always liked that.

This organ never fails to captivate me. It's one of my favorites.

But one thing sort of bothers me.... if I were to play it, I don't I'd feel safe playing on the gallery console. Immediately behind the bench is a fall of about forty or fifty feet (yikes!). They should install a decorative ir...

Nicely presented, but not an organ clip. The church looks nice though.

Not only is this trumpet inappropriate for this room, but, at least through my headphones, it sounds annoying. It probably would sound less annoying if placed in St. Paul's Cathedral, London or St. John the Divine as a secondary horizontal reed.

You might want re-upload this clip. It keeps starting and stopping even though all the digital info is right there. Otherwise, this sounds like a good penetrating reed.

At the end, you hear when Andrew released the keys, but the State Trumpet appears to linger on a little bit after that. That's what happens when you place a huge reed 500 feet from the main organ. The sound waves from the State Trumpet catch up to the microphone. It's all in the sound waves.

From what I've seen on both of these clips, and from what I've read about their restorations of historic organs, this is a company who does NOT fool around. I have a LOT of respect for the Fratelli Ruffatti company.

Between 3:14 and 3:36, is very useful footage I could have used over ten years ago. The installation of gussets on wind reservoirs. Look closely and you'll see the initial installation of the leather on a backing, which is great for initial alignment.

The reason I had so much trouble with guss...

Just think. This organ is 50 years old this year!
