I love it. He's got the biggest mechanical-action organ in the world and he's complaining about the Swell being too quiet :D

Does anybody can tell me whats there for a piece at 4.02-4.10 ?
-
@raikaljok And WAY too fast.

Great vid, I would have liked it to be a bit longer. Very nice piece about the relative un-usefulness of the 64'.
-
@music0876 Can you show what the 64' looks like?Im not that interested in pipe organs much anymore but i am very curious as to what it looks like.
-
@AcaAllertor127 Not quite, the metal pipes in front is a 32'
Diapason, the 64' Contra Trombone is in the back. Organ
builders do not usually put wood pipes in front. The 64' is
made of wood.

@juaniluco888 no, the knobs pulled out at 0:24 are tubas
from the Solo, not the Swell. The Swell doesn't have a big
sound compared to the Great.

@random23hero666 The sample is from Charles-Marie Widor's Toccata from the Fifth Organ Symphony

Very impressive instrument. One of very few organs in the world that can play down to C-1 or 8.18 Hz. Is this organ fully functional?

I found this text in the Grand Organ site:
Today the Grand Organ is in excellent condition and is maintained by Sydney organ builder Manuel da Costa, who had worked with Pogson on the restoration. The instrument is of international significance and is generally considered to be the finest nineteenth century Romantic concert organ in the world.

I do believe that the Melbourne Town Hall organ is a better instrument. And I am unanimous in that.

I quote myself: "The new Grand Organ sounds two ways: just like the original 1929 Organ while played from the case console or like the modern concert organ which creates very rich and powerful sounds while played from the case or the mobile console via a new switching system."
You are right. Played as a modern concert organ it beats the Sydney Grand Organ.
