    When my sister taught music, her junior high school's cafeteria had a nice sized Flentrop. It's case had doors that opened out, so as to enlarge the sound. ❤

      But Haupwerk works and is a wonderful substitute for an acoustic instrument! Do you want organists to not have access to an instrument if it does not meet your requirements? I would rather that organists had access to realistic sounding instruments than none at all! As a kid, learning the organ, I did not always have access to an acoustic organ - pipe or reed - I welcome haupwerk as a wonderful option for organists!

      Hiring experienced players of rare instruments is costly and the players who cannot improvise end up contributing only the unique sound, but no interpretation like we heard here.

    The first time I ever heard a portative organ was on _Jethro Tull's_ "Heavy Horses" album, charmingly played by _Dee Palmer._ That's when I fell in love with its sound. As with (in my opinion) all pipe organs, the portative sound deserves a proper venue -- one with suitable reverberation. Then again, the _necessity_ for a portative organ may sometimes be driven by the lack of space!

      The Biggs Flentrop as it is also known as was installed the museum on the mid 1950's. Biggs made many recordings on that organ , more than I can give you a number on, They are all splendid and worth seeking out. The repertoire ranges from Gabrieli and Frescobaldi (with Brass) through his famous Bach recordings as well as Daquin Noels and Hindemith Organ Sonatas which sound great on that organ. And there is much more in between. The sad thing is that Sony pretty much neglected Biggs in the CD era reissuing only a handful of his Bach recordings and nothing else. Most if not all of his original LP issues can be found on Ebay and Amazon. Just read the fine print for the best price and condition of product. Hope this helps you enlarge your collection. I met Biggs after his New York concerts and found him a very down to earth man. I studied organ with one of his students and still revere that connection.

      ..I have many of those LPs that I bought beginning ca 1968 or so...before I went to Germany with the Army in 1971, I wrote him asking for his advice/help in finding various organ builders...I never really expected to hear from him, but shortly after I arrived at my permanent duty station in Illesheim in November 1971 I received a hand written letter (which I still have - somewhere) thanking me for my interest and also with a list of builders who might be of use to me...over time I got two more letters (handwritten) in response to letters I sent - including a thank you note from his widow for a sympathy card I send her on his passing in 1977...I would have loved to have met him - as you did...I got to see him in concert twice - once at St George;s Church ca 1972/73 when he gave a concert after the release of his 'Music for Organ, Brass & Percussion' which was recorded at St George...I also saw him ca 1975 at the dedication of the organ at Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center...just saw an error in my earlier post - it was ca 1967/68 that I 'discovered' Biggs - NOT 1977/78...I'm 74 now and still enjoy asll of his classic LPs... @@muzluv33

      I was at the concert at St. George's. The program was the two Rheinberger concertos for organ and orchestra conducted by Maurice Peress. The recording of the concertos came soon after with a bonus 45 RPM of Biggs analysis of the concertos.

      When I was studying organ at Juilliard there was a gorgeous two manual Flentrop in one of the practice rooms. Had my lessons on that organ almost every week. The casework and pipework were a work of art - just marveled looking at it.
