The LAST Organ this Company EVER BUILT! - Paul Fey Organ Demonstration - Stadthalle Görlitz (DE)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 พ.ค. 2024
- In today's video I will demonstrate the great Sauer Organ in the "Stadthalle" in Görlitz . This huge organ was finished in 1910 and is the last major organ the W. Sauer organ company has built! This instrument has 4 Manuals, including a "Fernwerk" (located in the ceiling of the hall), and has 71 stops. It features a fully pneumatic action and has been kept in its original state!
Sadly this organ doesn't seem to be played that often. The reeds are a bit out of tune, the Pedal couplers are not working and the blower is very noisy, but I hope you'll enjoy the video anyway! Out of excitement I've forgotten to record the Pedal section as well - no worries though, the 32' Posaune can be heard at the end of the video!

What a fine instrument this is! Despite being neglected for a long time it still holds its own. The restoration of the building and organ will be great. Once the reeds are retuned and the couplers restored, it should be quite a showpiece. Along with the Sonnenorgel, Goerlitz will be worth a visit for its organs. Thanks for this demonstration, Paul.
I totally agree, Ralph! Thank you for watching 😀
👌
Der liebe Gott muss wohl ein eine besondere Freude haben, wenn er diese Version von „Lobe den Herren“ hört! Es ist ein Genuss, die Finger über die Tasten tanzen zu sehen! Bravo, Bravo!
Can't wait for the complete restauration of this wonderful instrument... and a sampleset!
Beautiful presentation again, my friend, very well done! 😊🙏
Königlich, diese Sauer Orgel🥰🥰🥰

Thank you, Paul, once more.
God bless you!
Welche Freude für mich, ich bin begeistert. Danke Paul Fey 👏👍👌
Danke dir 😊
Merci beaucoup pour cette magnifique démonstration sur cet instrument extraordinaire, dans ce lieu étonnant !!!

Thank you very much for watching 😊
Ich bin begeistert Paul Fey. Sehr schön anzuhören 👍👌
Danke dir 😀
Wenn diese Halle mal fertig ist muss ich hin zum Konzert. 👌👌👍👍
… dann treffen wir uns ( die Paul-Community) zum Orgelkonzert mit Paul 👍🏻😉😉🐧
😀
So eine prachtvolle Orgel auf einer Baustelle. Sie haben sie geweckt, herzlichen Dank 👏👍🏻☺
Danke fürs Zuschauen 😀
Von Pracht keine Spur aber die Orgel Demo ist fantastisch. Hoffentlich überlebt die Orgel die Baustelle. Danke für deine Arbeit Paul Fey. 👍👏👌
Danke dir 😊
Stimmt, man sollte sie wenigstens Abdecken mit Folie
@@uwenau2301 Vor der Orgel gibt es eine Wand, ähnlich einer Falttür, die die Orgel vor den Einflüssen durch die Baustelle schützt. Also, keine Sorge. Es wird bestimmt an alles gedacht! Viele Grüße aus Görlitz.
Unglaublich, was für ne interessante Entdeckung. Und so was steht da einfach unbenützt?! Ihr seid Kulturbarbare 😉😇
The second beautiful organ in Görlitz next to the "Sonnenorgel". Hopefully the organ and building are gonna be restored and saved for the future !! Thank you Paul for letting us in your "tour of Görlitz ".
I found this page about the hall www.goerlitz.de/buergerbeteiligung/vorhaben/26-Sanierung-der-Stadthalle

Lieber Paul, 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍👍👍👍👍🙋🏼♂️
Danke 😊
Have you ever heard recordings of Pierre Cocherreau improvising; I’m sure you have, but if not I think you would enjoy the sense of wildness he brought to improvisation. Always enjoy hearing your creative improves.
Oooh I did! But I didn’t dare trying this style yet 😀
@@PaulFey Fascinating that in last Sunday he played he must have had inkling of impending death as he changed his postlude to improvisation on Jesus Christ is risen today; there is somewhere a recording of it. His method certainly powerful & dynamic;
Wunderschön👏👏👏👏Tolle Klänge und super gespielt 🎶🎶🎶💜💜💜🎶🎶🎶
Danke dir 😀
@@PaulFey sehr gerne 🎹🎶🎹🎶🎹
Wie herrlich verstimmt manche Register sind, das erinnert mich an meine Zeit als Organist in kleinen Kirchengemeinden und deren Orgeln ☺️
Haha, jap 😀 Nur dass das Ding gefühlt 10x so groß ist 😂
@@PaulFey auf jeden Fall, da muss der Orgelbauer mehrere Schichten einlegen um das Gerät wieder in Ordnung zu bringen. 😅Aber die Halle sieht ja auch etwas renovierungsbedürftig aus 🙈
i love this demonstration,thank you so much,Paul.
Thank you 😊
What a nice instrument. Hopefully it will get restored.
Thank you for watching! It will! 😀
Danke, lieber Paul! Überwältigend! Habe die Orgel das letzte Mal zu ihrer Neueinweihung im Jahr 1991 live gehört. Ich bin Dir dankbar, dass Du sie wieder unter Deiner professionellen Hand erneut zum klingen brachtest. Das 32 Fuss-Register ist ja die Krönung. Hoffe nun, dass die Restaurierung unserer Stadthalle weiter voran geht. Es fehlte in den letzten Jahren viel Geld, für das Vorhaben, was nun Dank der Fördermittel und Spenden in die Tat umgesetzt werden soll. Also noch einmal dankeschön fürs zeigen. Liebe Grüße und gute Wünsche für die kommende Zeit sendet Dir, Steffen. Bis bald!
Ein wirklich tolles Instrument! Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen 😊
I lost it on your expressions at 16:05 haha. Wonderful organ!
Haha, well.. the Vox humana definitely had a cold 😀 Thank you for watching!
Lieber Paul, deine Deutungen sind so wichtig für meine Gebete
Vielen Dank!
Baie dankie Paul vir die uitstekende demonstrasie van di♪ skitterende orrel!
Thank you very much, Martin! 😀
Schön das die Orgel so okay ist und der Rest restauriert wird. Danke für die schöne Vorstellung dieser Orgel.
Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen 😀
I am surprised that you found this organ to be at all playable - Görlitz's Stadthalle appears to be severely neglected and no longer in use. How did you manage to gain access to this organ? Unless the community where it's located steps forward to save its hall and organ, their future looks bleak - indeed only a matter of time before this abandoned hall is demolished and replaced by a new structure.
I hope your calling our attention to this organ stimulates interest in preserving it - thank you, Paul Fey, for coming here to see and play this remarkable historic organ.
Thank you very much for watching, Jos! I was astounded with the instrument too! It was a rather long process of planning to get in there - its a construction site after all. They‘ll start the renovation of the hall this year! 😀
@@PaulFey So true, you have to have a lot of patience with things like this.😀
Sensationelles Instrument! Auf genau so etwas habe ich lange gewartet. Danke!
Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen! 😀
Überwältigend 👌👌👌
😊
Ein wunderschönes Instrument, das hoffentlich bald wieder regelmäßig bespielt wird.
Das hoffe ich auch! 😀
Thank you very much Paul for this precious addition to the sonorous documentation of Europe´s organ landscape: it really impressed me, all the more as I ran into it via a rather obscure byway (my obsession with abandoned churches and their organs ...) Your demonstration of this remarkable instrument adds to my fascination for the town of Görlitz that started with a public general rehearsal sometime in 2005 of Brahms´ German Requiem in one of the churches of Görlitz, also posessing a typically Jugendstil organ, built over the church´s pulpit (I do not remember the name of that church though). More recently, my Görlitz fascination got another boost from watching the film "Hotel Budapest" which was filmed for a very important part in Görlitz. Altogether, with this video you gave me one more good reason to visit Görlitz again after the Stadthalle and its remarkable organ will have been restored to their former glory!
Thank you so much for watching!! Görlitz is definitely wirth a second visit - especially when they‘ve restored this hall, they‘ve started this year! 😀
@@lusatia That was it, the Kreuzkirche in Görlitz, I checked a few images and there is no doubt ... thank you so much for adding this missing piece to the puzzle, thus completing my memories of this marvelous town, very much appreciated !!
amazing 🙏 wow
Thank you for watching! 😀
Excellent demonstration. Many thanks for posting.
Thank you for watching! 😀
A great instrument, extraordinary demonstration of its possibilities. Thanks for making us enjoy master Paul. A hug from my city in the east of the Kingdom of Spain. 👌🤝💓🎹
Thank you very much for watching 😀
Magnifique !!!!!!!
Thank you 😊😀
Splendid instrument ! Thank heaven it’s survived as well as it has. How wonderful it will be when it’s restored to its glory
Thank you so much for watching, Alan! 😀
What a wonderful instrument! thank you for this tour through the organ, even if you forgot the pedal.
Thank you for watching! 😀
Yes, this instrument will still provide some surprises in the future.
You've also staged it beautifully again in the video edit!👏👏👏
Danke lieber Paul für die ganz schwere Arbeit, weil das ist sehr sehr anstrengend 👍👍👍🙏🏻. Lg
Dankeschön 😀
The fernwek sounds so quiet compared to the rest of the organ. It is a pity it is in this condition, it deserves a restoration
So true! In the hall it should sound a bit louder though - as I‘ve read it is based above the ceiling and „shines“ through it 😀
Tolle Präsentation, tolle Orgel.
Fantastisch 👍👍👍
😀
Gruß, Paul. Ich denke, eine Revision nebst einer Sanierung wurde eine gute Idee. Dieses Instrument ist ein wahres Denkmal.
Das sehe ich genauso 😀
Beautiful, Paul! I'm a day late in listening/watching this and am so glad I have. The instrument is magnificent, and your demonstrtion of it enlightening. Thank you, as always, for sharing your talent. and these instruments. with us. Bravo!
I‘m so happy to hear that you enjoyed this video! Thank you so much for watching 😀
Wow 😀
😀
👌
Astonishing it plays so well. It's clear the space as well as the organ has not been regularly maintained. A shame as there are so few instruments of this design that survive.
Hi Paul , The Sauer Organ company sure went all out with this well equipped pipe organ. A fully pneumatic organ is a bit easier with stop changes , than a tracker organ is too. I will have to listen to this video again when I get my computer speakers repaired or get a new computer
So true! Thank you for watching, William!
It looks very cold in there, Paul. Yet you managed without gloves!!
I got used to it with all the cold churches around here 😀
@@PaulFey ha! I bet December to February are your favourite months for playing. 🥶😄
@@pauls7056 Definitely 😂😬
What a beautiful sweet sound!
Vielen Dank, Paul, für deine tolle Vorstellung! Das ist wirklich eine interessante Orgel. Schönes Wochenende! 👍👍
Vielen Dank für Zuschauen 😀
Beautiful choice of tone colors, dynamics and tunes!
Thank you very much! 😊
HI PAUL thank you for shareing this bueiful organ its so nice to hear an old orinal organ hopefuly it will be retored and then you must show us an update in the future many thanks andrew from the uk
I totally agree! Thank you for watching, Andrew! 😀
Wonderful presentation and performance Paul! 😁👍👏👏👏👏🐧❤️
Thank you for watching, Peter 😊
You're so welcome Paul! You're the best! Thank you for shearing me up!😁
This surely is a world treasure! I'm not sure how many Sauer organs are extant, but if as you say, this is the last one the company built--and especially as it is such a magnificent instrument--it would be a world-wide disaster to lose it, and a crime if it were changed significantly. There are companies out there who do masterful restorations of tubular pneumatic instruments. Loved the shots of the interior of the organ, esp. the spaghetti of lead tubing, which I assume was directly behind the console. Can I assume that the fernwerk action is electric? I can't imagine them threading lead tubing clear up into the ceiling, and if I remember Sauer's history at all, they were still building at the dawn of the electric action age. It appeared that there were no combination paddles for the fernwerk. Was there any sort of combination action for the fourth manual?
I was a bit surprised at the overall gentleness of the instrument. Even at full volume, it was very well-mannered.
Thank you SO MUCH for this demonstration!
Thank you so much for watching! I totally agree with you - luckily the halle and organ will be restored starting this year 😀 The shots included are directly behind the console, yes! I‘m not sure about the Fernwerk action, I‘d suspect electric, but I‘m not certain - the instrument is 100% in original condition so I‘m not sure if they had these back then 😀
News of the forthcoming restoration gladden my heart!
The 32' Posaune came through magnificently! Thank you maestro for showcasing this superb instrument. I'm sure that with your interest and publicity, the necessary restoration will be completed. Maybe you will record a CD on it?
Thank you so much for watching!! Renovation will start this year - its going to be great! 😀
I've never played on a pneumatic organ that was still working. . . mostly just a lot of coughing and wheezing. Really lovely instrument. It sounds like it is fairly well cared for.
Haha, well the air-noises are standard 😂😀 Thank you for watching!!
Exzellent!
Thank you! 😀
An enlightened demo of a sainted lady nearly forgotten. I'm glad this grande dame still sings, even if it's a bit leaky. The pneumatic action bodes poorly for a renovation. If only they would play her to preserve life. Music doesn't have to be perfect in voice or pitch to be thrilling. Could the 'ceiling organ' have been for an ethereal effect? For what? 🤔
So true! 😀 I‘m not sure what the Echo was for - I guess they just built it in „cause they can“
Hoping that Scheffler from Sieversdorf gets the order to restore this Wilhelm Sauer-organ. They are the real experts in this type of organ.
Übrigens gute Aufnahmeposition zu Beginn - die 32'-Bässe breiten sich wie ein langfloriger Samtteppich raumergreifend aus - der Majorbass macht seinem Namen alle Ehre. Sicherlich spornte Mathis das für die neue Sonnenorgel an - da bebt die Luft ebenso.
Jetzt noch einmalige akustische Situation - sollten die Bauarbeiten zur Wiederherstellung bald beginnen, wird die Orgel (hoffentlich gut!) eingepackt, und nach Auspacken werden etwa 2 Sekunden Nachhall wieder verloren sein.
Vielen Dank! Da stimme ich die vollkommen zu - hoffen wir das beste 😀
Beautiful equipment & organist
Awesome demo! I would have liked to hear a bit of the Tuba with a Tuba tune. (I LIVE FOR SOLO REEDS!) The console is unique, I suspect if I had an hour with it I would like it. IMHO this is a good concert organ that needs to be used again. It is small enough to have some beautiful voicing. I would like it as a Hauptwerk\Grandorgue sampleset.
I totally agree, Mark! I didn’t use the Tuba for a recording because all the reeds were out of tune - next time though! 😀
Lieber Paul, danke für diese Demo… sehr schön 🐧👍🏻
und die Orgel hat sich bestimmt über die Durchlüftung auf der Baustelle auch gefreut.😉
Was für eine Orgel, sie verdient es gespielt zu werden. (Meist vermutlich zu Konzerten…
… Elias oder Paulus als Konzert mit Chor wäre doch passend oder ein Orgel-Konzert mit dem hochgeschätzen „Paul Fey“ zur Wiedereröffnung der Stadthalle miOrgelkonzert.😉🔥🐧 ( Vorschlag für die Planung !!!)
Danke für die schönen Aufnahmen.
In der Totale mit der Orgel habe ich kurz überlegt, ob Du durch Freude und Deine Qualität für die Erleuchtung im Quadrat gesorgt hast 😉
DANKE 🐧🐧👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🐧
Haha, vielen Dank! Die Orgel ist jetzt erstmal wieder gereinigt 😂🎵
@@PaulFey so kann man das sehen… nur jetzt müsste eine Folie gespannt werden, bevor weitergearbeitet wird..
All instruments need to be played regularly, especial pneumatic action ones. There's a lot of leather in an organ, and if left will dry out render the instrument unplayable. Here in the UK there are so many municipal instruments gathering dust.
Hopefully your videos will raise awareness of these hidden gems.
Thats so true! Thank you for watching, Rowan 😊
Does "Stadthalle" mean this is a government building? It looks like some work is being done there. Perhaps this video will encourage a restoration of the organ. From what I've read about the Sauer Company, and heard in other TH-cam videos, they built fine instruments. From Chicago, U.S.A.
Yes, exactly! Thank you for watching 😀
du hast den Mut vergessene Schätze neu zu wecken und zu heben. ❤Das Herz geht auf von einem Orgelfreund und Spieler.
Vielen Dank 😊
Seriously Osul, where would we be in this world if we didn’t have the existence of a 32’ Posaune? The Dark Ages I’m telling you. The groveling, uncivilized, worm-eating Dark Ages. I do hope there are plans and funding to fully repair and maintain this piece if history. A total update rebuild would be nice, but it doesn’t seem to be to be that far gone that it needs to lose its old mechanics and representative features if it’s era. It strikes me as being at the perfect state for preservation. Are there any plans for such?
Nice little organ. its not clear if this place is being restored or torn down. I hope the organ and this place is being restored. If it isnt and they destroy it, would be a tragedy.
„Little“ 😂 Its being restored this year! 😀
The out of tune reeds give the organ a very Renaissance band sound
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍prima
Danke 😀
It’s so cool how this organ as big as this is up in the ceiling! Hope the hall is used again for concerts. Question is, how do you get up to the console?
Oooh I hope so too! Haha, just climb these choir-stairs 😀
I had the same face as yours when i heard the Vox Humana hahaha I don't think it's completely abandoned otherwise it would be completely vandalized and destroyed...
Haha, yup 😂 Well, it is - but the hall is locked down by the city and they also have an eye on it, so there is nothing stolen 😀
@@PaulFey Good to know, here in Italy it would have happened in a split second
What a contrast; A unused building that seems to be slowly falling with a magnificent organ at the end. I kind of like the out of tune reeds - I think it adds character to the organ, apart from the reeds on the Fernwerk, they are very out of tune. What do the switches/buttons do below the stops? I've seen them before but have never known what they do.
Thank you so much for watching! I totally agree - the detuned reeds add a kind of depth to the sound! 😀 The small things below the stops are for the pre-registrations. You can save up to 3 (?) registrations with them and activate them with a push of a button - this basically is the predecessor of the digital sequencer 😀
@@PaulFey Ah okay! Thanks!
Wow, to me it sounds very "American". Perhaps there is more German influence in American organ building than I assumed. Or its simply that particular registration. Anyhow, I very much enjoy this organ and your playing.
