I’m so happy to see this lovely instrument successfully moved and preserved. It sounds great in it’s new home!
Loved the video. I grew up going to Trinity Lutheran Church in Scribner. My family farm was about 1.5 miles from the Church. I'm so thrilled the organ has a second life! Thank you for the video!

Thank you for doing such a beautiful and PROPER restoration job for this instrument. May it continue to sing for many more decades to come.
What a perfect fit for this Pfeffer Organ. I am all for 100 % restoration, but I am also a big proponent of making it better than the original if possible and the extra rank extensions, pallets, and hand pump are perfect examples of not really touching the original, but improving the installation
What an absolutely tremendous organ with an equally wonderful story. Fr. Schneider is lucky to have a congregation that has a love for this charming instrument. Maybe someday this organ could easily be featured in an Organ Historical Society Convention if they decide to meet in Kansas City.
It’s an arrangement of a piece called “Psalm 19” in English. I think Benedetto Marcello was the composer and it appeared in a book of early music for organ edited by E Power Biggs. I had a copy in the 1980’s.
I think all of us living thru that era had it as a mandatory first collection book. lol Still have and occasionally use mine. Tho to be honest most of it now is so memorized I don’t even bother getting the book out most of the time.
The organ fits this church so well, both tonally and appearance wise, that it could have been built for it! Thanks Brent for yet another great video :)
Extremely well done documentary of the organ. All involved should be very proud of this work. Praise to the Pastor of St. Ann's for understanding the value in a pipe organ. I'm sure the funding was a challenge too, well done to the parishioners of St. Ann.
Great installation! Truly a labor of love - the right instrument for the right space.
What a wonderful story and so good to see a lovely little instrument like this properly restored. Ryan Luckey's patient explanations of what Bedient found in the restoration were fascinating - and how fortunate the church were to work with someone who clearly understood what a compassionate restoration should entail. As always, thanks to Brent and the team for all their work bringing these videos to us.
Great story! I hope some churches get inspired by this to do the right thing!
Absolutely fantastic, must have taken you guys years to learn what you know now, I am an organ lover, like my late Dad was, mostly the Hammond B3 with Lesley, Wurlitzer and other cinema organs, but also a lover of the great pipe organs, its just great to know that there are organs being restored, a well done job. Good luck in all your future restorations. Rich UK
My grandpa was the organist at Trinity Lutheran Church and played this organ. I enjoyed the video and some day hope to visit St. Ann's to enjoy it's rich tones in person!
Beautiful organ in a gorgeous church! What a blessing for the parish.
Sweet, sweet, sweet. Having moved/set up a 1907 I/5 Vogelpohl & Spaeth organ myself (not just once, but twice!) I have a soft spot for these small one manual instruments.
Beautiful church and the organ design with colored pipes fits in beautifully
It's as though the organ was made for that church. The appearance blends in well and the sound works well for that size of sanctuary! It is a great video to watch! Thanks!
Thanks for a great video, and congrats to the church and pastor for their vision! Wonderful to see on every level!❤
This was excellent. Thank you for sharing this remarkable story.
Wonderful to view this video. Congratulations and thank you for saving this Pfeffer organ!
ce serait intéressant d'entendre un peu plus ce bel orgue. Félicitations aux gens de la paroisse Ste-Anne, belle mobilisation.
Glad it got saved and restored
Great story!
Beautiful sound.
Wonderful!
Wow what a cool organ and old church.
So awesome!❤😊
Nice big full sound!
Muy buen montage de este órgano de tubos....
Thanks!
Fun video
Wonderful work, and a great job documenting it. I’m curious about one thing, you have the organ backing up against an outside wall and next to a window. Is that going to present problems with seasonal temperature and humidity changes?
I have to ask, what was the piece played from 6:45 to around 7:30? I had only heard it once before over a decade ago and haven't heard it since until now.
Psalm 19(?) the heavens declare by Marcello
@@ADumbMidget I owe you big for this one, chief.
Is the 4 ft. Harmonic Flute made of wood? Pfeffer's Harmonic Flutes often were.
should have shifted it to the right about 2 feet
C'est stupide, ils ne pouvaient pas laisser l'orgue en tribune ?!
