Sadly in America, the organ is becoming a thing of the past. Many Catholic churches that I have attended, the grand piano has taken the place of the organ. No one is playing the organ any more, it is now the piano. I play a classical organ at a local church, but they were so used the piano as they really do not want the organ played any more.
hahah! you got humor carlo! "you can hear it overblowing, slightly" like there are several degrees of overblowing, whereas a healthy pipe is overblowing, or it isn't, as in digital: 1s and 0s, on or off.
i know you mean 'you can slightly hear it', but it sounded just too funny!
Hi! You performed for the Rodgers Organ Co., also on their demo records back in the day, right? I like to watch you play, also. I am a student organist, and I prefer to play w/out shoes because it's easier. But I do play with shoes sometimes anyway. Do you often perform w/out shoes?
This is a wonderful introduction to the organ: many people who ask me about the organ I direct to this video (and its companion); the explanations, about the stops in particular, are excellent. He explains it much better than I could. Could Carlo post some videos of the Trois Chorals?
I loved Mr Curley since 9!

Hello Carlo! I've just sent a message to you Via your website. I knew I wasn't the only organist to play in my socks!

Bravo Carlo! I had the pleasure of seeing Carlo in concert a year ago. He sounds so much like his teacher (Virgil Fox) too.
Keep on playing, Carlo!
