There is a 600 year old playable organ in a monastery in Switzerland. The continent of America was unknown to Europeans when it was first played.
It’s in Sion and it was made during the medieval period
like how at the end he just closes it like "nope no more you're done now" lol XD
I did not think Rob still knew that piano piece existed. Glad to finally hear it again.
Piano jam by Rob Scallon
형절Austin woah deep cuts haha
@@robscallon can you do a tutorial for piano jam.
What about Regardless of your handwriting
I love that the organist had just about as much fun as you did doing this video. We gotta keep interest in the organs alive. Dude, you need to travel and go do a video on the organ in atlantic city. Its apparently the largest in the world, they are working pretty hard to get all of it back online. somewhere around 38,000 pipes and some of the biggest in the world. Fran did a pretty good tour video of the wanamaker organ in PA, definitely worth a watch.
How have I never heard of this?!
One of two in the world with a true acoustic 64' stop.
I know this comment is late but it actually has around 33,114 pipes.
0:49-0:52 almost sounds like a synthesizer!
Our church had an organ by the same builder from 1850. Unfortunately it was gotten rid of in the 1960s. This church is lucky to still have this instrument.
i love how you showed us what it sounds like when its pumped really slow
So...
There was a person doing that with people like bach playing for hours.
That's what they did instead of pumping iron at the gym
Where do you think the term" I'll pump you up" came from?
It was qyite different there where pumps that worked with weights and gravity but they had to be constantly recharged. At least in my region which is the north of italy this was a job for kids. And bach had many of them lol

This organ was made in 1850; 4 years before the formation of the republican party, 11 years before the beginning of the American civil war.
This thing should totally be used in more songs. Love the sound when the lever is pumped slower.
Y'all realize America is like 243 years old, this organ is like half the age of America.
There is a organ in Switzerland that is 600+ years old 😂. And the church is 800yr old.
@@KuntalGhoshno need to flex. The USA went from a sparsely populated wimpy place to the most powerful country in a couple hundred years. Not my fault it took your church the same time to build an organ.
Hi Rob,
you should really consider covering the indian classical instrument harmonium.
It is similar to an accordion, one hand is used to play a bellow which blows air into the harmonium, and the other hand plays the keys. It is a staple in most indian classical music, Mostly accompanied by vocals, but it is an incredible instrument on its own.
And the most interesting feature is that you can adjust the level of each harmonic of the sound that comes out from it. Im sure you will love it.
Cheers from 🇮🇳!!
Yes definitely and also veena
We love you rob
1850, old?
Ha! The temporal perspective of American History is refreshing to me as someone from Europe.
Enjoy your tiny buildings.
To paraphrase someone whose name I forget, in America, they think 100 years is a long time, while in Britain, they think 100 miles is a long distance.
Tiny J yea we enjoy out tiny awesome old buildings who are irl actually pretzy big and some are huge
@@tinyj4520 Don’t take out your private insecurities on your fellow friends.
It sounded amazing!
That thing is really cool, love it.
The church I attended as a boy in Durban, South Africa was originally built with a hand pump, which was still operational even though now augmented with an air pump. At one point well into the 20th century there was a power outage on a Sunday morning and legend has it one of the ushers flagged down a rickshaw driver in the street and hired him to man the pump, for which he was well paid!
Sadly, When the adjacent Berea Road was turned into a superhighway we lost the beautiful old Musgrave Road Congregational Church… 😢
Thank you.
You should really play the Erhu some time!
0:58 when you dont pay the bellow pump operators during the mass. 😂😂 in the 19th century
0:50-1:19. It kind of sounds like a train horn, complete with the Doppler effect. It also brings to mind a Thomas the Tank Engine episode titled Faulty Whistles
Powerful sound
Wonderfull, congratulations from Argentina!!!!
Damn.. in America the newest stuff is called old..
Our church is from the 16th century and the organ from 17 something
Where?
Vid or it doesn't count.
@@tinyj4520 No reason for a proof, most churches still existing in Europe were built in the 16th or before, and big organ in churches start in the 16th too, so it is perfectly likely
i play my local cathedral organ every week and it's from 1790 (it has electrical systems now and is a bit broken atm lol)
There’s some old buildings from the 16 and 1700s in America. They’re flimsy old shacks but they’re still 400 years old. Colonizers have been here a long time but America is only a couple hundred years old.
The slap at the end made me crack up
Wicked cool.
0:58 this is how lo-fi inventd
awesome video dude!
0:58 is anyone thing the noise sounds a bit like someone yawning.
Try making harpsichord or clavichord metal
By the thumbnail, Rob was pumping up his head not the organ :^)
Way to disrespect the instrument by running your finger across it. That guy sure of hell wouldn’t have liked that.
Thorpe 4901 Yeah I thought that was a bit weird
It's weird to do a glissando on a church organ but it's not like it's gonna hurt it. The amount of lateral force is pretty small when done right.
You knew why changed sound
Why does Rob look almost exactly like Charlie Cox?
Why u re post
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
Hi rob ! Is there a left handed version of your guitar
0:17
0:27
0:30
I know of another hand pumper organ
what's the name of the first piece you played plz? (0:17 - 0:33)
it might've just been an improvisation but it sounded really nice
Funny
1850 isnt very old...
The US is only 74 years older, to Americans this thing is like Stonehenge.
... for an organ in a church, worldwide. Saying that something being made before any living man birth is not old signify that it is not old in comparison of something else. For an organ in a american church, it is old indeed.
Those primitive persons are do not need any organ which it has an lang. With hand pumped organs (reedorgans) could have breeth as an articuation in the usical process.
hi
The original players must have had some very strong right arms. Probably useful elsewhere as well ;)
Hmmm.....
Should remove your hat in a Church.

Harpsichord is dead
