Sadly on the few times I was able to visit before emigrating, the Wurlitzer wasn't played. However I remember being taken to its former home of the Regal Kingston to hear it played by the great Reginald Dixon, would have been about 1960. I've loved theatre organs ever since.

A delightful performance, indeed. I do have to wonder, though. Was this performance presented on KZbin as a live event initially? If so, how might I plan to view such an event if it should occur in the future? I don't know why it matters, but I just think a live event might be more thrilling. Now, back to the show, for me! Thanks, Musical Museum! I love you! ~James

35:00 Can't get over how far that song "Wind Beneath My Wings" got. It was written by fans of my late pastor, Dr. Gene Scott, and was a tribute to both him and what he taught about God, who is the real Wind beneath our wings. Since that time, to this day you can't go anywhere on the planet without hearing it somewhere at some time.

It also became one of the most played songs on Sundays by King's House One and University Cathedral's Unband, where Dr. Gene Scott taught and held services. My current pastor, Dr. Melissa Scott, his widow, also has the words to it down and has sung it.

Excellent presentation at a level that even a neophyte can understand. It’s amazing how so few ranks of pipes, relative to classical organs, a theater organ uses for such varied tonal colors.

Der schwache Applaus der wenigen Anwesenden ist in meinen Augen so einem großartigen Künstler nicht würdig. Aber es zeigt auch das Problem der Orgel, nicht nur in Deutschland. Schade für die Orgel - egal von welcher Firma! Ich freue mich, wenn ein Revival diese Instruments gelingt.

@Musical_Museum

Hi - thanks for your question. The organ has something called "second touch" which allows the organist to press harder on the keys to call on an additional set of sounds or instruments; but this is not really "touch sensitivity" though, for example you can use second touch to add another octave to the notes you're playing. The organist can also remotely operate the Piano's expression using one of the shoe pedals which would give a similar effect to "touch response"; however on the Musical Museum Wurlitzer only the piano notes and the sustain pedal is currently connected.

One question, is this a so called multiplex organ, where pipes are in multiple use, so the same pipes will be played from the different manuals and the same pipes, that provide in the lowest octave a 8' provide an octave higher the 16' and so on? Or is it so mighty, that every key has its independent set of pipes and only when coupling is activated, you can play upper manual registers on the lower manual?

It seems not to be the case, but tried Wurlitzer this for a budget instrument?

Hi - great question. The Musical Museum's Wurlitzer has 12 main ranks (types) of pipes - and these can be played at multiple "footages" and intervals (called "mixtures" or "mutations") from multiple manuals (keyboards) simultaneously, and the different keyboards can be also "coupled" together, sometimes at different octaves too. This is referred to as "unification" or a "unified organ", and is a real advantage in making the organ compact enough to fit into a typical cinema or theatre. As an example, the Tibia Clausa rank at 8' (standard) pitch has 61 pipes. A traditional organ would require a whole extra 61 pipes for the Tibia 4' (an octave higher), but the unified theatre organ achieves the same effect by playing on the same rank transposed up an octave, requiring only an extra 12 pipes to play the top octave. The 16' is accomplished the same way, adding 12 pipes to the bottom of the Tibia rank. Hence, in our unified Wurlitzer organ, four stops (each a separate stop tab) needs just 97 pipes, whereas in a classically designed organ, 244 pipes would be needed for the same four stops! As you say, this means that multiple keys on the keyboard might call for the same physical pipe to sound, but in reality because of use of different combinations across the different manuals, conflict is either avoided entirely or not really noticeable!
