I play the pipe I know the music of the sound like this one I love it when I play I like to play by the sound not too fast.

Some peoples do not understand this song? just listen the music of pipe?

Playing Jazz on a church organ ? There has to be some serious wrong for someone to play Jazz on a Pipe organ !!!

@ EccentricRichard :  Even though no recording does any room or instrument justice, the 2 CD set from JAV Records of Professor Thomas Murray on the Woolsey Skinner is something else. The first disk is a stop by stop tour showcasing the best voices from the original Hutchings organ as well as the subsequent rebuilds by Steere and E.M.Skinner. Disk 2 is a special concert of Tom Murry for Yale faculty. Well worth every penny! Also try "The Transcribers Art" CD of Prof. Murray on Gothic. THE BEST!

@ EccentricRichard. The ballroom Kimbal is well on it's way to having it's well deserved re-premier. I didn't mean that the console was the only thing that got restored. Funds were made available to restore the whole organ as designed by Kimball and Senator Richards. It will be a wonderful thing since it hasn't been playable in years.

@TheBaritoneCrooner - what state is the Kimball in? No use having a restored console if the rest is bust!

Incidentally, I've listened recently to some recordings of the Woolsey Hall Skinner and I have to say I don't like it - it's got nice orchestral solo stops, but it's pretty bland overall. The chorus reeds lack the fire of Skinner's mentor Willis, the Pedal reeds really lack bite and the diapason choruses seem dull. It's just too refined to excite. I much prefer what I've heard of Girard.

Bravo, Barbara ! Aussi à l'aise aux claviers d'un grand orgue , que ceux d'une console Hammond !...

Nice job, just not my type of playing! But U did great!

Speaking of Atlantic City. I think Barbara's artistry would be a better match for the Ballroom's 4/55 concert/theater Kimball. The console has just been restored and the organ features Kimball's unbelievable solo stops and a lush string compliment.
