  • Brent Johnson and Travis Evans meet with Mark Gifford, organist of the Cathedral to play a few works on the Cathedral's new Reuter organ.
    Our camera shutter speeds were a little too fast, and the LED lighting of the console causes some gentle pulsing effects on the organists. We'll try to avoid that next time!

    I.got a 1970 11 stop reuter in wichita that I am moving to the Rio grande River in nm. I am adding a 32' bourdon I found in Dallas. I have the only 32' octave in nm is in my house!! Install the summer of 23. I love Reuter!

    Great video--thanks, guys! Mark has such a classy way about him--and great swagger at the console. He and that organ dance very well together. And of course Brent's and Travis's playing was excellent too.

    I love everything about this video - the building is gorgeous, the organ the same, but those acoustics: WOW. It's like the building was made for that organ!

    Thank you Brent! I visited here with Mark, to play the organ. It is a MAGNIFICENT instrument, in a perfect acoustic. Mark is amazing! Was a bit disappointed at first the 32 Bombarde wasn't in yet, but quickly wasn't after hearing the rest of the organ. It just FILLS every nook and cranny of that room.

      Brent, as I said above, I came here to see the organ, and meet Mark. This was back in early May. I remember when we were there, the swell box had a small issue, that whenever it was closed after being open for more than 5 sec, it would make a hideous squeak. Had Mark had that fixed by your visit in this video?

    Price's organ works should have gotten more attention in the past. Her music has flavorings of, Karg-Elert, Jongen, Vierne and a Blues element to tie it together, nicely! Great music...

    my recall of this would not allow me to render it true to what i hear in this vid. i was truly impressed w/ this piece, and it certainly is worth passing around for a communion anthem, voluntary, funeral office, or just about any service. i sute do like the theme.

    Wonderful-sounding organ. Only thing missing is a 32' Pedal Reed. Thanks for this presentation. 👍😀

    i've always liked the reuter organs i have heard. st. george's episcopal (germantown) memphis traded their instrument in for a frenchy deal. personally, it sounds nice, but for the money, i would have to say their were some great stops in the principal chorus and the reeds. frankly, it had some problems keeping up w/ large congregational singing, but it was nice to sing along, especially "if thou but trust in God to guide thee". i really like this sound. sometimes i get a bit of ambivalence in the lower pedal??? very aesthetically pleasing console. wonderful cathedral, wonderful. m. gifford can really make her talk, can't he. the cathedrale got a jewel, when they got him. he is "experienced" personified. love the mend demonstration.

      Pat Meaden, Wouldn't that be nice! I bet the string pipes are so soft and lush in sound. The string pipes are named Salicet or Salicional and they're usually listed as 8' Salicional or the 8' Salicet.

    I appreciate the inclusion of some Jan Bender (although the rebuilt Phelps-era Casavant at nearby Trinity Lutheran would be better suited for Bender).

    I think one of the reasons the video of your first video at this Cathedral is so popular is that for some reason, it keeps coming up in suggested videos for me, and I'm sure, others.

    Thisorgan needs some Bombardes and Contra Bombardes. Also some Ophicleodes.
