@ds1868, I still plan on uploading a few more of Stefano's old videos that I have left. Just need to find the time.

Sounds like some incredible space saga theme! :)

@hbmp88, the work is very religious though. To put it simply it's meant to portray the rising of a cathedral.

@hbmp88 This organ is famous for its mutated flues and flutes. Apart from the mixtures, where fifths are prevalent, there are the following independent flue Quints: Recit Quinte 2 2/3; Solo Quinte 5 1/3 and 2 2/3; Grand Choeur Quinte 2 2/3; and Pedale Quints 10 2/3, 5 1/3, 2 2/3. Lots of 'fifthy' potential then, and I haven't even mentioned the flutey fifths!

Fantasti. Beautiful organ

@advisorC101 I new it was supposed to be about some grand structure of something :) If those are what I think they are there are a lot of fifths!
