You've never seen an organ like this..

[@johnhenryholiday4964]

Within 10 seconds I was saying to myself how incredibly bright this organ is... It kind of sounds like a silberman... I was rolling on the floor when Paul was holding his breath while playing the Vox.... It was a moment of... "This isn't combining well" ... We organists who play pipe organs have all been there.... You grin and bear it....

[@alanholtham1]

That organ ‘sparkles’, wonderful👏

[@c.g.5590]

Das ist eine tolle Kirche mit einer sehr schön gespielten Orgel. Toll Paul

[@epincion]

Thanks Paul. What a beautiful instrument and in a amazing baroque church typical of the great pilgrim churches of medieval central Europe. I love the heater above your head - presumably to keep the organist’s fingers from seizing up in the winter. It’s an instrument and church that is part of the patrimony or Austria and I hope the local, regional, and state will support the restoration and upkeep of these treasures.

[@mattleach958]

Thank you Paul. Definitely "Penguin Approved". 🙂🐧🎹

[@rachristensen]

I am surprised at how easily Paul seems to be able to give us all the lovely sounds from so many different organs. They are all different yet, he has such a depth of knowledge that he makes it work.

[@uribenyehudah]

You are the king of organ registration, my friend!!! Fan of Paul Fey forever!!!

[@howardbaitcher5464]

Thank You Paul for sharing this great instrument with us.

[@stepps511]

Thank you, Paul! What a wonderful instrument! I'm sure that it and the church, once restored, will serve for many years to come. You are a terrific guide, composer, and performer. All best wishes.

[@davidwelch6796]

We must thank so many people, those that commission the building of such an organ, the builder who works out the very complex mechanisms and linkages, the composer who can hear in his head how the potential of the instrument can be released and celebrated, and by no means least - an organist who can read the music, work the manuals and pedal board, select and change the stops so that we lesser mortals are treated to magic beyond compare.

[@mspg2]

Love it Paul when you give it the full organ - what a superb instrument - i love your trips around the churches -peace and blessings dear friend. Rohr flutes are always delightful.

Dear Paul, thank you for the tour of that brilliant organ! It’s fun to be exposed to all the different organs in so many places. I can hear that organ is alive in that church! How exhilarating is that!! Thank you, my friend!💕Royden

Un orgue qui a l’air très intéressant ! Hâte de voir ça !

[@maartenbuma3527]

Thanks Paul. This was very nice.... love the finale!!

[@gerbenvanderlinden5935]

werde die orgel sicher nie "durchschauen/voll erfassen" - aber sie ist und bleibt ein beeindruckendes instrument, das ich durch deine erklärungen/vorführungen immer besser kennenlerne und weiterhin besonders schätze - werde möglichst oft noch orgelkonzerte besuchen und auch besser "verstehen", was ich höre

[@c-historia]

stunning place & amazing video!! wow

Beautiful organ! The basilica looks like the inside of a wedding cake.

[@EduardvanSligtenhorst]

Interesting video! For some reason the stops and keys looked familiar to me, so I searched this organ and found it is built by Koegler. Here in my town we also have a Koegler organ so it all made sense then :)

[@chrisgunther6847]

Sehr schön anzuhören Paul Fey

[@Elisabeth-r2p]

Sehr schön. Danke Paul

[@petedenton9434]

Fascinating instrument - but you're right it's not without its problems. Hopefully nothing that can't be fixed easily and a quick tune would certainly improve things.

[@yvesbrissette4074]

Fantastic organ ! Thank you Paul !

Thank you for closing with full organ - it makes my heart stop!

Eine tolle Kirche mit einer schönen und wenn sie überholt wird, auch klanglich wundervollen Orgel.

[@renetroostorganist]

I’ve been there also. It’s just amazing. Especially the recording of Sietze de Vries improvising at this organ is a real showcase (the Kögler Orgelbau double album).

I’m so glad I found your channel! I don’t even remember how I happened upon it but you are so amazing at what you do! I just think you and your videos and your skills are so cool! 😍 I’ve always had a fascination with cathedrals and pipe organs and I love listening to you explain everything and play! Your videos always make my day! Thank you for sharing!!

Amazing!

[@21stcenturyozman20]

*Floating organ?* The Adelaide (AU) Festival Centre organ - built in the late '70s by Rieger Orgelbau - floats on a pneumatic cushion (not unlike a hovercraft) so it can be brought forward for concerts but moved backstage behind shutters when space needed for other events. It was inaugurated by the French organist Marie Claire Alain, and I was fortunate enough to be there.

[@carlbrenninkmeijer8925]

so gut !!

[@Jaguar79gt]

wow sounds so beautiful 🥰🥰

[@paulmeneely]

😊Such a wonderful instrument. If it is not available in Hauptwerk it should be.

[@grantharper6033]

Wow, what an amazing sound and what an amazing musician too! Why though is it called a floating organ?

[@mariodykstra6555]

I think it’s because it’s on a balcony.

[@david24240]

Paul, j’aimerai entendre ton interprétation le choral du veilleur

[@steffensindermann3220]

Guten Tag, lieber Paul. Na, das war ja wieder ein sehr schönes Instrument. Danke für`s zeigen und natürlich Danke für dein super Spiel. So muss eine Orgel klingen. Liebe und beste Grüße aus Görlitz sendet dir Steffen.

[@annabevelander3031]

come to scherpenisse NL to the dorpskerk very great organ

[@orgelpfeife5268]

Ausgezeichnet Paul Fey. !!!

[@bobdear5160]

Lovely sounds on all the stops and nice piece at the end. On 3 manuals I’ve played in the UK, the great is usually the middle keyboard with the swell (enclosed) at the top and the choir (also enclosed) at the bottom. Sometimes there are combinations which can swap keyboards which could out them in the order you were playing - great, choir, swell or some other combination. So is this organ usually set up with the loudest at the bottom and quieter as you go from 1st to 2nd to 3rd manual?.

[@jkowca]

Ave Maria! +

[@jaxvos6040]

Thank you for another church organ visit 😀 I don't know how these pipe stops work, but can you pull it out only half way to get lesser stop sound? or must it be pulled out fully for any sound? 🤔 TIA for sharing your knowledge 😊

[@CLipka2373]

I never realized before that the English saying "pulling all stops" is not only equivalent to the German saying "alle Register ziehen", but also shares the same origin: Cranking up the volume on a classic organ to the max. Dialing it up to 11.

[@annabevelander3031]

hello come to scherpenisse the dorpskerk in the netherlands can you come thats an very great organ.

[@philipbutler6608]

I want to hear Take Me out to the Old Ball Game.

[@meandersandmusings]

I know this is a little basic but can you tell me, are the keys brown through age or are they actually woof themselves? The action looks so light, I would adore to play it myself. Happy International King Penguin Day by the way dear friend 🐧

[@The_DuMont_Network]

The key colorarion is by design. I believe the console, at least fairly new. I believe the colr selection was made to harmonize with the rest of the building.

[@xyCommander]

aufwändig verzierte Tasten, hossa.

[@leylinegoddess]

are the stops mechanical or electric?

[@FurryAnimator]

❤❤😄😄

[@ericalbany]

Is this a modern instrument in baroque style? It has a wonderful sound but I don't see the slightest indication of age and wear. On a well played tracker- even restored- I'd expect the occasional rattle and bang. (I play an 1870's organ with so much wear to the manuals it can sound like a hailstorm if you play rapidly)

[@HAIckes]

It only just occurred to me - this is in Kremsmünster. In Austria. Please help me understand why the organ pipes are measured in *feet* rather than meters and sub-units ...

[@flatfingertuning727]

Organ stops are best thought of not as a length measurements, but frequency divisors. For a five-octave keyboard which goes from C to C, the note two octaves from the bottom would be treated as "middle C", and have a a root frequency of roughly 2100/N, regardless of the physical length of the pipe. Thus, for an 8' stop, the note two octaves from the bottom would play middle C. A 16' stop, it would play an octave lower, and a 4' stop would play an octave higher. For other lengths of keyboard, 8' would represent concert pitch; 16' would be an octave down, and 4' would be an octave up. The use of foot numbering stems from the fact that an open pipe that plays a note two octaves below middle C (i.e. the bottom note of a typical keyboard) will have a sounding length of about eight feet, but the numbers correspond only roughly to physical dimensions. Even if one were to fudge numbers to say that a 16' rank was exactly 5.00 meters, it's a lot easier to visually recognize that 32/16/8/4/2/1 are all separated by factors of two than to do likewise with 10m/5m/2.5m/1.25m/62.5cm., and it's a lot easier to recognize that e.g. 2 2/3 or 1 3/5 are 8/3 and 8/5, respectively (sounding at three or five times the frequency of an 8' stop) than to do likewise with 83.3cm or 50cm.

[@HAIckes]

@@flatfingertuning727 Ah - now I follow the thinking a bit closer - thanks!
