Jason - this is gorgeous ! This Apollo looks suspiciously like Phil and Pam's old example from Saltaire ! We've got two in storage at the moment, one for the museum and one for myself at home as I quite fancied getting a practice organ again, fabulous instruments and far superior to an electronic instrument for serious practice.
I am surprised by the nice clean sound of this Apollo as some models have a very reedy sound. Much more impressive looks of the casework than actual sound. Very nice and suitable for solemn music.
Thanks for the tour of the inside of the organ with the music.
The best version on YT so far: the right sound, solemn play and an interesting mechanism.
