@@HobbyOrganist I thought I had replied, but it doesn't seem to have gone through! I have played a couple of very similar Rieger instruments to this one, in small chapels in Eastern Europe, one with a rather odd 1/4 length reed (Krummhorn, Dulzian, Regal, Schalmei, something like that) in the little ruckpositiv case. Generally nice instruments, but I didn't find the action very nice to play and a bit inaccurate.
@@HobbyOrganist Rieger's original intention for these instruments was to roll the compact, portable organs into bombed out churches after World War II so that they could have an instrument. However, this specific organ has operated as both a church and home instrument.
I'm assuming you mean at the universities. I graduated from NTSU in the 70s and played on a nice little organ in one of the Episcopal churches there. Man, I wish I still had access to that organ. 😁
NTSU has only one Rieger, from the 70s. Both Episcopal churches had Riegers, St. David of Wales has a twin of UNT’s and St. Barnabus has a model similar to the one in this clip. Trinity Presbyterian now has the house Rieger of Ali’s Adkins. Unsure of the whereabouts of Donald Willing’s unique 3 manual instrument.
@@David-HPC1904 Oh wow! thanks for the info. I subbed on the organ at St. Davids. Interesting to know it's a Rieger. I have fond memories of playing/practicing on that organ late into the night. Actually, I think I left my organ shoes there when I left Denton. LOL
What a lovely performance! And so nice to also see an old Rieger getting new life in some's home!
I think this was built AS a residence organ, it's too small to have been for a church but who knows!

Please tell us ALL about that delightful pipe organ. What a delight to have that at home.
It is a delight. I'll share a video with information about the organ soon.
Lovely. Thank you !
Todd- I love that you have a pipe organ in your living room! And your son has great phrasing!
Thank you so much!
Good job at the Violin. Im the computer kid from your old church in Montgomery (The one who went to Norway). Keep up the good work.
Hello! Good to hear from you! Thank you for your encouragement.
I love this compact organ.
It's a very wonderful instrument.
Amazing composition and interpretation! Thanks
Thank you!
I WANT that organ. Of course, I'd have to build a new room onto my house first.
Brilliantly done, Gentlemen! Bravo, Sirs! 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you!
Just planning a concert including violin and organ, so that was great to see! Thank you!
Excellent.
Thank you!

Thank you!
Beautiful organ too! Very jealous!
We really love it! I just started taking organ lessons, and having one in the house is so helpful.
Can you provide the organ stop list, please? Congratulations on posting such a beautiful composition!
Thank you! There will be a video coming soon that will have a list of the different stops.
How lovely ! Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Love your ornate Rieger. Denton Tx has 5 small ones from the 70s. Beautiful playing guys❗️
Thank you! Yes, we love the Rieger.

This is very beautiful. I play both organ and violin.
I look forward to your future videos.
Thank you! Looking forward to sharing more videos soon.
Beautifully played! 🎶👍🎶
Thank you!
Very nice! A charming little organ that fits a lot in a small space.
It really does! The organ is 23 ranks which is tremendous for its size.
@@Alexander_Acoustics Really! 23 ranks. That's amazing. I have a 5 rank Hinners in my home.
@@DanielZiesemerViolin Oh that's great!
Nice organ!!!
We love it!
What are the organ spects? Very beautiful instrument.
Great virtuoso, the Organ is beautiful and compact too. Most of all the music glorifies the Lord!
Let the lord out of that. He has nothing to do with that.
Thank you so much. Praise the Lord for the gift of music!
Lovely organ ! Any information about contructor ? Thank you for that wonderful Melody in the Violin ❤❤❤
Rieger is a European builder, many Rieger organs in churches in Slovakia etc it's an old company
Thank you!
Joli orgue.
Wonderful performance! What book is this piece in? I’d like to play it, but have not been able to find the music anywhere online.
Played very beautiful. But the organ needs a tuning
Yes, it hasn't been completely fine-tuned yet. It's also tuned to A 445, so it sounds slightly different.
