Hindustan On The Allen Theatre Organ

Here I am playing Hindustan. The terrific theatre organ arrangement was done by my organ teacher Joyce Clifford (jclifford@surewest.net).

Which instrument is the "easier" to play;the piano or organ?

[todoodle]

@Squarerig Piano by far. (Although I am sure some pianists will disagree).

[bigblockelectra]

how do you control the percussion? Is it tied in to the keys for your left hand?

[todoodle]

In this piece, it's tied to the left hand (lower keyboard) and pedals. But could be tied to just about anything.

[Audinos]

Well done! Is this organ entirely digital? I'd take an Allen church organ over a Rodgers any day, but I had no idea their theatre models sounded so authentic, especially the percussion.

[todoodle]

Yes. It is entirely digital. The sound is quite fantastic.

@todoodle That's true, my old teacher was both an organist and pianist and even he said Piano could be harder to handle. At least in the dynamic area of playing.

[M3town3]

You must have a good teacher since he arranged that! I'm going to be an organist too, but I haven't started my education yet...

Great music. Now I'm craving curry!

Gorgeous!

To respond to FourFootFagott's comment, Allen's new Walt Strony Signature and Lyn Larsen series organs are even better. A personal message from Lyn Larsen himself is on the Allen Organ website.
