Thanks for another wonderful video. When you visit these beautiful old churches, I would love it if you would use the first few seconds to show the exterior of the church as a well as a view of the organ from the nave. I will probably never be able to visit these places, so it would add a lot to your videos for many of us.
The improve piece you played is so beautiful. I could listen to it over and over. What a genius of harmony he was. I'm glad you selected that piece to play. The voices of this organ are most pleasing. They seem to be wonderfully unique in many cases. What a joy that instrument must be for you to play. This video has been one of my favorite of yours in a long time. You get better and better at bringing us delight from your visits to so many lovely organs.
Thank you, Mrs Gartshore, for panning the camera into the church, it really completed the impression and atmosphere. @Fraser: Do you think you’ll have the time to pursue your initial idea of publishing an organ school book? I imagine you are quite busy now with the channel being so successful. Keep it up, it’s great fun!
Karl Rovey Especially the early ones yes but there are good neo-baroque organs out there. I love when they mix the best of modern and old, electro-mechanical is probably best because you can have that electric registration and mechanical action. I agree the sound can be too “sharp” sometimes though.
Lovely video, and very informative, as always. Beautiful organ with a lovely sound. I'm also a nature lover, so I like how the church is doing its bit for wildlife by installing the Barn Owl nest box.
Many thanks for this very interesting organ demo and church tour. The organ is lovely-sounding - especially the 8' Großgedackt in the Rückpositiv. And the Karg-Elert was beautiful. I agree with you: he's one of many often-neglected composers (like Guilmant, etc.) whose music should be performed more often. There's a wonderful contrast between the warm and singing Principal and Flute stops and the bright Mixtur/Scharff/Zimbel stops. Glad to hear the two(!) 1' stops - lamentably, and too-often, left out of organs. They come in so handy for the Bach Trio Sonatas, etc. Although it's a bit unfortunate that there are no String stops (Salizional, Gamba, etc.). Thanks, also, for the link to the organ's stoplist. Much appreciated.
Would really appreciate if you could show the context of the organ as if you were visiting for a recital. Arriving outside the church and then entering the nave. Gives a better understanding of the instrument.
What a beautiful instrument. I recently heard a performance from the hr-Sinfonie, one of my favourite orchestras (in nearby Frankfurt) which included the organ of the concert hall - to my mind a horrendous instrument judging by that one performance. Such a delight to hear the exquisite contrast of this organ. As for the comments you have received against informality and frivolity in a church - don't these people realize that Christianity is a joyous religion? And thank you for the Karg-Elert item - I have (and play) that from an album of his music I've owned and enjoyed for years but never heard played by anyone other than myself!
Oh, what a great video, Fraser!! I still cannot get over how clean your office looks... is it always like this? Love the quality of the video in the church... it’s so crisp and clear. I especially enjoy your anecdotes at the beginning... always interesting to hear historical notes on the organ, the place where the church is situated, etc. For us in the “New World” a little bit of European history is always welcomed. Love too, the panned shots into the Church... though it was way too quick. You mentioned the word “prospect” a few times... what does this mean exactly? Your explanations on the organ’s innards are very interesting, pointing out the arrangement of ranks by thirds, etc. It’s only when I hear your explanations, do I begin to understand the effects this has on the overall sound of the organ in the church... something I usually wouldn’t consider, playing in my living room on my Hauptwerk virtual organ. I absolutely loved the last segment showing the owl sanctuary! Shining a light on the goings on in the nooks and crannies of the church rafters is a delight! Remember the little bedroom in the organ from one of your earlier videos? What a lovely education you are providing!! This organ has a glorious sound.... yes please, a little Bach would be nice, if it’s not too much trouble... a few bars of BWV582? ... just a few...😊🙏🏼Thank you so much Fraser, for these most enjoyable videos. I am very happy to see all your tireless efforts & hard work are being recognized and appreciated by so many!! Happy Thanksgiving to you, the Missus and Puppie💕🌺🎶😊🍁🍂
By "prospect" he means the front (or façade) of the organ: displayed pipes plus ornamental wooden casework. The word "prospect," referring to an organ façade/front casework elevation, is very rarely used in America.
Prospect [noun]: "Direction of the front of a building, window, or other object, especially in relation to the points of the compass; aspect; outlook; exposure In organ-building, the external front or façade of the instrument, including the case and the display-pipes."
Shout out to Sigfrid Karg-Elert! The "Music of the Night" from the Three Impressions (I believe) Op. 58 is one of my favourite pieces of organ music. To say nothing of his march on "Nun Danket Alle Gott". Thank-you again Fraser for your hard work.
Perhaps the Prelude and Fugue in E-flat major would be perfect! Bach's longest prelude, and (in my opinion) his best fugue. That Rückpositiv chorus is already in 'organo pleno' enough for the fugue! It's quite difficult and a long two movements, but It'd be great to hear. One of the most hardcore Bach pieces.
Wonderful video Fraser! These old organs absolutely make my heart sing! We don't have anything like this in Canada so it's such a treat to see and hear instruments like this up close and in detail. I love your idea to return to this organ if possible and play some Bach.
Regarding recording, where would you do it from? I have only tinkered with an organ a few times but, as a (bad) pianist, the thing that I found disconcerting was the delay between pressing the key and the sound coming out of the back of the organ and bouncing off the West wall of the church before I heard it. That's the thing that put me off learning the instrument. Well, that and lack of talent.
Fraser- the organ I'm playing in Herefordshire has a 'venetian' swell box and was considered very trendy in its time. If you every have time to show the differences between swell boxes, that would be great! Thanks. David
That's a cymbel to not be used lightly! Also, am I one of the only people to not love the sound of a chiffing pipe? I know it was overused many decades ago but I personally love it!
Fantastic video fine sir! love your demonstrations, they are very informative. As an organ enthusiast myself I have trouble pronouncing the names of some of the more unique, and complex registers. It was unfortunate that the organs reed stops had pitch issues, but guess that happens to all organs know and then. For me an organ without reeds is a cake without sugar. The reeds bring brilliance, and stridency to the instrument. Love your wonderful, and rich content as well!!! :)
I've just discovered your channel and I must warn you: you're soon going to see an italian organist doing pretty much what you do (wonderful idea), but I even dare to practice and teach to my students in short trousers and sandals. SANDALS. Just like monks wear. Incredible.
What a cool (and beautiful) church.😁 Obviously, the organ has been *very* well cared for, as evidenced by the condition of the console and the visible pipework. Even with the reeds being a little off, it sounds amazing! You're right, it definitely needs the 'Bach treatment' in the near future. Maybe the Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G major (BWV1048)? You'd probably have to task your wife and someone else for turning pages and pulling stops though!🤣😉🎵🎶🎵👍
What an exquisite survivor through the ages! May I suggest that for your next "milestone" in subscriber numbers (or maybe the 50K mark??) you use this instrument and slay us all with what I know would be a "take no prisoners" rendition of BWV 577. Yes........the Fugue a' la Gigue by Johnny Bach. That organ and that piece together......... with you at the bench......ROCK AND ROLL, BABY!!!
Great video as usual! I would love it if you could make a video about improvisation...even chordal Preambula that freely move around keys. The little simple tricks used by organists to prolongue things a bit if needed. Things like that. Cheers!
Is it a prerequisite, as a church organist/music director, to be particularly pious or regularly attend mass/service? I'm not speaking in the the context of yourself Fraser, just as a general question. Thanks for the informative videos, the BWV565 was superb. Perhaps at 50,000 Böellmann's Toccata from Suite Gothique?
A number of church organists I've known, and know, are indifferent toward religion, agnostic, or atheist - as are many "artistic" people in the world. Belief and piety are certainly not requirements when performing "religious" music - just skill and good taste.
Inexplicable mic weirdness? You may well be suffering from the effects of the dreaded standing waves... Looking at where you were sitting, it's possible... basically the sound waves are bouncing off the parallel surfaces either side of you, hitting/mixing with each other out of phase, and thus cancelling each other out. This can produce weird, unpredictable effects like making you sound off-mic, tinny, and/or almost inaudible. You can use acoustic foam to solve this by absorbing the reflections, or just prop a bit of wood at a jaunty angle on one side to bounce the reflections away in a different direction, ie away from your mic. Test your setup by listening on headphones before you start recording, and tweak the shape and squishiness of your space until it sounds normal. Thanks for your videos, Fraser. As a German-speaking Brit with a weird fascination for church organs, you're ticking quite a few of my boxes!
Reflections weren’t the problem with the lapel mic - turns out it was a dodgy connection to the iPhone. Seems to be ok again. Long term we’ll be looking into wireless mics for the vocal stuff...
Could you tell me what to look for when i want to hear more of the nice harmonies you use in your improvisations? I already love bach, and am browsing for Norddeutsche Frühbarrock-Musik.
One thing that always confused me is the mixture ranks. You said that there's a sharf mixture on this organ that's a 3 rank mixture, while the organ I practice and play on has a 4 rank sharf mixture. What do the ranks mean and how much does it change the color/tone?
The ranks in a mixture refer to the number of pipes that play for each note, each additional pipe adds a layer of brightness and richness to the chorus.
A ribbon mic is very all nice, BUT PLEASE do not use it for organ music, all pro type musicians/engineers of any substance use an omni by Schoeps or the likes
The best mics for organ are of course DPA’s 4006 model. They are good for all the way down to 10Hz, but they are crazily expensive. The AEA I was referring to is a specially designed mic for exactly purposes and not like a “regular” ribbon... together with its own specially designed pre-amp, and the fact that because of its characteristics, it can record X/Y or M/S out of the box, it’s the new go to choice for organ freaks.
@@FraserGartshore the DPA's are great, I came close to ordering a pair myself, just for organs, but family issues meant it had to be put on hold for a few months. The Soundfield was another option (Priory use one), but was put off by the Hyper cardoid capsules being very noisy. Great series of vids by the way Fraser, the most informative on the web probably
I have to say, I love my new Sontronics. You have to play around with recording position in the church - a never-ending story every week we record! This week’s sound was, I think, the best so far. Mics were positioned in front of the altar at a height of 5.5 meters. Very natural, well-spaced and no tweaking required. The background noise of the organ wind might disturb a few listeners, but that’s part and parcel of recording organs. For half the money, I think they sound equally as good as Neumann 183s - I used to use them on live recordings back in the day! Sadly they weren’t my own!
All the ribbon microphones change the tone colour extremely. And because of large diaphragm their frequency response drops sharply in diffuse field. So the feel of early reflections is degraded like from analogue recording. Personally I wouldn't pick an organ using X/Y (or M/S). The HRTF could be interesting if you want to try something new. And even long A/B would pick the church reverberance. Any decent condenser microphone is sufficient to pick low frequencies. Even the cheapest (and smallest - this is the key) electret microphones have full audio spectrum capability within 2dB. With my AT4021 (and Mackie HR824) I can reproduce a rapid opening of windows which causes the door to "click".
“Naked little bottoms” killed me

This pipe organ is very beautiful sounding instrument

My husband is a Lutheran Church-Canada and wears shorts under his robes in the summer.
This was my favorite video so far.
Super professional !
Perfect combination of history, organ mechanics, music and owls.
:D
Baroque/Neo-Baroque organs are so beautiful and have the nicest sound! You really showed what it could do but I agree some Bach would fit perfectly!
A lot of neo-baroque organs didn't accurately reproduce the sound of baroque organs.
Karl Rovey Especially the early ones yes but there are good neo-baroque organs out there. I love when they mix the best of modern and old, electro-mechanical is probably best because you can have that electric registration and mechanical action. I agree the sound can be too “sharp” sometimes though.

Perfect introduction!! "Freu Dich sehr oh meine Seele", one of my favourites. Thank you for playing.
Thanks Fraser, all-round enjoyable video! Love Karg-Elert too...hate to be a bore, but I think BWV 564 would sound splendid on that organ 🙏🏻

Indeed. Some scholars did even doubt Bach's faith until the discovery of his personal copy of the Bible.
Let me just say that a life working behind the scenes for the church can certainly affect one’s outlook on religion.
@@FraserGartshore Very diplomatically said. 👍😊
It really depends on the church's governing body as well as the congregation.
Do you think you'll come back and reccord the reeds on a better day? I've looked on the website and they seem to be quite interesting!
Biutiful instument & wery good organ majster :)
Very nice!
