Stuart Forster plays Organ Scherzo in Lincoln

Stuart Forster plays the Scherzo in G minor by Enrico Bossi on the Schoenstein Organ at First-Plymouth Congregational Church in Lincoln, Nebraska. This video was taped during recording sessions for Stuart Forster's new Pro Organo CD, entitled "Symphonic Quest" (Pro Organo CD 7228), recorded in August, 2008 and released in November, 2008.

The Lied Organ (built by Schoenstein & Co., San Francisco) at First-Plymouth Congregational church is considered by many to be a modern American Symphonic pipe organ, but it actually plays all eras of the organ literature very well. It has four-manuals, and many divisions. There are actually two organ cases to this organ: one in the front of the chancel, just behind where the choir is seated, and another in the rear gallery. You see images of both of the cases and facade pipes in this video. The console is movable and has been moved to the front center of the Chancel for this video.

I go to this church. It sounds fantastic in person. Very deep vibration in the wood pews and the acoustics of the building are amazing.

Great performance. I love the sound of this organ as there are allot of french symphonic voices adding substance to the overall sound scape without sacrifice to articulation. esp. in the string stops and some of the well rounded reeds. Lastly the mixture stops used were very warm, pleasing, and with not too much warble. The piece performed on this organ was most appropriate for this instrument. 5/5 and heading to my pipe organ playlist..
