I apologize for my lack of attention to the informality of eating pizza in a place of worship, and I will surely be more mindful next time I have an organ appointment that aligns with lunch time. As for the turbulence of the "camera/photo apparatus", here is the same video, but with the turbulent bits cut out so that you can enjoy without "headaches" th-cam.com/video/bJgucb_aQiA/w-d-xo.html
If the worst thing that you did was eat pizza inside the church sanctuary I would call that a success. People need to follow the example of Christ and forgive and spread his love to everyone. Actually that’s not an example but a command that Christ gave us. When we berate a young person for bringing a food item into a church and then continue to make negative comments, that’s not forgiving or spreading Christ’s love. At a time when fewer and fewer young people are going to church I would be careful about being too critical over what some might consider a trivial lapse of judgement. Considering some of the things that have went on in some of our churches in recent years I do think that someone carrying in a slice of pizza is trivial. The young man has apologized so I can assure everyone that if God was offended, it has been forgiven and forgotten.
Love this organ. I will visit this church next time I’m in DC. Also a tip of the hat to the organist who’s filling in. Looking forward to hearing George Washington’s organ tomorrow. Thanks for these great posts.
Thx for the wonderful music. Truely amazing and the organ is wonderful....OOHHHH in my next life. Love the improv also. Make her GROWL ! Thx for the chills down my back.
What an amazing organ in a fabulous acoustic. The French voicing is just awesome and so was the playing by Daniel Carroll - what a rising star! You look to have had a great visit, Charles, though after such a 'beefy' instrument . . . sushi would fail to satisfy my hunger pangs! Bravo!
I once tuned a 2/5 Style 150 WURLITZER for an ATOS event. It was the only organ I have ever tuned that gave me a headache. I'm sure it was a real screamer in the small theatre that was its original home. 😊
Keep the camera steady please although I read that this is the movement-edited (for the better) version. But, diziness aside, the gentleman in the blue shirt was enjoying himself as much as I enjoyed listening to the organ's capacity through his hands and feet and then came along another blue (Tshirt) individual who also knew what he was doing. The organ's place in the future seems assured.
@@Charles-Reardon Well, you're obviously doing something right! I just wish it weren't becoming increasingly difficult to avoid the whole church battle over contemporary-versus-traditional music! Down here in Texas, organs and organ music are becoming increasingly perceived to be old-fashioned and outmoded.
@@organist1982that is such a shame too. I dislike most contemporary music but not all. I attended cedar springs Presbyterian church on occasion when I was a student at UT, Knoxville. They had switched to mostly contemporary back then in the early 2000’s. They have a praise band every Sunday for their worship services. Behind the praise band and the choir is a 86 rank schantz pipe organ. The sanctuary is square in shape with a balcony that wraps around 3 sides of the sanctuary. In the back corners where the balconies meet to wrap around the back of the sanctuary, there are two antiphonal divisions of pipes, one division in each corner. I used to sit in the front row of the balcony so that I could literally see the pipes just over the railing in front of me. Anyway, they play their pipe organ every single Sunday along with their praise band. The sound of the pipes blending with the contemporary instruments and percussion is actually quite beautiful and adds a great deal of power. I find it very encouraging that, instead of abandoning their organ or completely removing it upon adopting a contemporary worship style, they instead have embraced using the pipe organ and pay for the upkeep of the instrument. It is very possible to use a pipe organ with contemporary instruments and music. Several years ago I saw where a church had their pipe organ listed for sale. It had been installed in 2005 (or near that year) and then in 2016 they switched over to contemporary worship. The organ was simply turned off and left in the chambers unplayed and then listed for sale. My problem with that is this. Many people have given money to have that organ built and installed. It’s not uncommon for one person or a few individuals to donate the vast majority of the money towards the purchase of a pipe organ. I think it is a slap in the face to those people to simply trash an instrument that they donated a lot of money towards. I fear that the trend will continue in most locations.

Actually, Cavaille-Coll preferred to have the Grand Orgue be the middle manual on 3-manual instruments due to how much more complex the mechanics had to be when having the Positif be the middle manual, but the organists of the day usually requested the reverse, with the G.O. on the bottom. There's one C-C organ, however, where he was able to install it the way he wanted, with the G.O. manual in the middle, because there was no high-profile organist demanding the reverse! I learned this from Fugue State Films' DVD documentary about Cavaille-Coll.
Managed to watch for 2 or 3 minutes but the camera work was giving me a headache. Try watchinf some pf the pieces by scott brothers duo and learn how to film.
I'm not sure whether or not you are familiar with the beliefs of Catholics (and Orthodox) - but The King of Kings and Lord of Lords is truly and substantially present in their Sacrament: in this church, He is there in the Tabernacle near that little lamp in the Sanctuary. His churches are for prayer and holy things: nothing profane in His presence. Read the text of the great hymn "Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence." That's the proper disposition when entering Catholic and Orthodox churches. There are places for eating and witty banter - but His temple is not that place. Thank you for demonstrating the organ nonetheless.
I'm sorry, but this is unwatchable because of the camera's too rapid movements. I tried not looking at the screen, but without a dedicated microphone the sound changes too. Once you've ironed out the technical I really do look forward to seeing your future travels.
My hosts? They didn’t pay to be there. One is just filling in for the organist and the other is a friend of his. The blue shirt guy was actually being paid to be there lol
maybe it was just the recording equipment, but I was there and I can assure you that both the trombone (really a bombarde) and chamade were perfectly in tune

God wouldn't have given us pizza if he didn't want us to eat it. Nice video, thanks for sharing this instrument with us!

such a lush sound, I love the little diddy David played at 1:45. He seems very fluent with this organ.
Eating Pizza in Cologne cathedral leads to being kicked out.
That is one incredible instrument!

I love how talented you all are. Organ very much in the spirit of Cavaille-Coll, though a little smoother and less raw thunder.
Wonderful instrument!!!

Great organ. But what made you think eating pizza in a church was ok? Dude. Show some respect.
Nevermind that downstairs there's a commercial kitchen. 🙄
Nothing wrong with eating pizza in church.
@bongdrop There's a commercial kitchen in my church, too, but nobody would eat in the sanctuary, other than communion bread.
@@bongdrop downstairs and in the sanctuary are a big diff. It’s ignorant. Simple as that.
Pretty tough to beat a Cavaille-Coll organ. This is not a Cavaille-Coll but it comes pretty close. Well done.
Cavaillé-Coll has not been in business since the 19th century. Modern builders come pretty close.
I'm supposing that the 8' Bourdon-Harmonic is a stopped Bourdon in the bass and becomes open harmonic pipes in the treble.
Just stunning. Thanks a mil. hands sore after tracker action?
I very much enjoyed Daniel. He is good.
Utterly amazing organ. You're all like kids in a candy store.

No, this isn’t. Check the description
Where have the two of you studied? You're both already amazingly skilled organists at such a young age!
I’ve just taken lessons, but I taught myself all my foundations of the organ. I started the piano at age 7 so that’s where my chops come from

That’s too bad. I wish you luck in your future organ things. The east coast is fantastic for organs

When the Lord instituted the sacrament He was in the upper room not a temple.
No food is allowed to eat in church especially. Best to eat 😋 before or after church organ playing!!

What is the compass of the keyboards, more than 61 or less?
Less
Looks like 54 note manual compass.
Favorite piece Finale Sept pieces. Suggest moving the camera more smoothly and slowly. Your flute sounds very Ravel-esque.
Ok, 4:44 is awesome
Magnificent instrument. Such beautiful sounds. I thought the great division on French instruments was the bottom keyboard. I must have misunderstood
It is! here was evidently decided to get the usual layout instead of the french one
@@davidecymba Thanks!

Thank you for explaining this for me. I will definitely be more mindful of every place of worship and my behavior in them.
Get over yourself!

Pizza in this modern age is a sacrament and promises eternal fullfilment. Churches have bingo nights.

While this organ is obviously great for French rep., wouldn't it maybe be more accurate to describe it as some sort of English-French hybrid?
I think it’s French all around. What would you say is English about it?
@@Charles-Reardon Well, just reading the stoplist, it looks rather English on paper, but I suppose that doesn't necessarily mean anything!
@organist1982 You’re right about that, especially how the pedal reeds are simply called “trombone” and “trumpet” versus Bombarde or Trompete.
Yet another Noachian screamer. There’s more to organs than screams. Perhaps it’s the microphone placement?
Im not sure what you’re talking about
Suggest you listen to any Daniel Roth video on a Cavaille-Coll organ. This organ is very French. Perhaps a Dobson is more to your taste.
Nicely done! Bravo! And Bravo as usual, to Noack.
You could be a little more respectful to your hosts. They paid for your enjoyment.
My hosts? They didn’t pay to be there. One is just filling in for the organist and the other is a friend of his. The blue shirt guy was actually being paid to be there lol
CapitOl Hill. Just sayin
The chamade is hideously out of tune...
And the low-CCC of the Pedal 16' Trombone!
maybe it was just the recording equipment, but I was there and I can assure you that both the trombone (really a bombarde) and chamade were perfectly in tune
Oddly enough I remember low C of the pedal reed being super sharp
