  • does anyone else find this really really creepy?

  • @culltim In what way?

  • i think hi is using diaphone pipes. correct me if i wrong.

  • @alexeydk78 Diaphone pipes (in my experience), tend to be a bit slower to speak, and while they do "roar", they are not so sharp as these. It sounds to me like the bass end of a Post Horn, Tuba Mirablilis, Serpent or some VERY sharp reed.

  • What reed pipe are they using at 0:20 and afterwards? Sounds like the low end of a post horn or trumpet.

  • @tempetiger It's definitely a very sharp, snarly sound, so I'd have to guess like one of the lower octaves of an English Post Horn.

  • Why does it cut off at the end?

  • If those are indeed diaphones at 0:10 0:20 and 1:11 and 2:10 Thank you! I've been wondering what diaphones sound like on a pipe organ. A few ofmy local fire stations have Gamewell Diaphone air horns on top of their rooves and I hear them quite often...

  • @Myles0Harcourt Sounds like a pedal oboe. I am an organ builder and am sure it is a reed, not a post horn or trumpet.

  • @culltim It is, kind of. That's definitely a Serpent or Post Horn. I like this song to vary between cheerful/bouncy and mysterious/sneaky. I think the snarling reeds here are too much.

  • Wurlitzer fans: The stylized "T" in the Wurlitzer logo does not mean that it should be capitalized in print.

  • @culltim

    Creepy as hell.

    Apparently the organist is ashamed to show themselves in any of these videos.

    

  • It would make an awesome ringtone. ;D

  • Pipe organs are Fuckin' insane!!

  • this is such a great instrment. there are many around the country. i think the best on is a thursford collection in norflk. there is also one at strumpshaw steam museum in norflok wich is played in all there steam rallys.

  • Do you have the entire piece?

  • Sounds like the post horn and trumpet togather
