  • @goodchappy Not really, it does have a few digital voices though in the pedal: 32' Bourdon, Open Diapason 16', and Posaune 32'

  • 4:57-5:14 Are those loudspeakers I saw? That's cheating :-D

  • Interesting about the choir division. There is a school of thought that the term 'choir' is actually an evolution of 'chair'; as in a division located behind the organ stool also known as a 'ruck-positiv' (ruck meaning 'back' in German). Obviously in modern times this evolution has gone full circle hence the choice of tones for accompanying a choir. Excellent video, thoroughly enjoyed it- would like to see the long version!

  • What are the various loudspeakers for behind the organ, is it a hybrid?

  • Great, thanks

  • Man up............................­..

  • No.

  • that depends!

    on french organs, it is mostly positif

    on english organs, it is choir

  • Could'nt stop watching it
