So great instrument...like in Rouen and Notre Dame....Cavaille-Coll made great organs.

[@Humble_Electronic_Musician]

Mooi!

Organ art and I like the fine interpretation van Choplin, Gabriel Pierné's Prelude Thanks for posting

[@rr7firefly]

That rustling sound heard during minutes 3 through 5 is a wonderful reminder that this is in fact a machine that makes music. Its moving parts would have to make noises. This is a revelation to me. Thanks for your attention to visual and audio details. You've really shown the church and its surroundings thoroughly.

Beautiful... :-)

How lovely to hear a KZbin recording of this wonderful instrument that does not start with full organ!

[@pianoplayeruk]

Gorgeous building and piece!

[@Music_By_Mike]

Diese Orgel besitzt einen fantastischen, unverwechselbaren Klang.

[@Danilotosatto]

Magnifique orgue

[@gerwinhoekstra]

The 'unknown' piece is Allégresse by Jean-Jacques Grunenwald.

Gerwin Hoekstra Zie jaren later, dat ik deze reageerder ken! We troffen elkaar laatst in de Bonifatiuskerk, toen je daar de dienst kwam oefenen op het kleine cc orgeltje. ;)

I glove this organ best of all.

Came for the Pierne, stayed for Dupre

@rr7firefly Thanks for this comment. The noise of the machine is not heard in the church, but when playing organs like this you feel the contact with the organ and the music much more than with a electified traction. Greetz!

[@SADRailsim]

@slofox13 As far as I know it is a tracker action with the 'Barker' machine which pneumaticly takes some away of key pression of the keys, to make large organs playable for i.e.virtuosic music (In smaller organs sometimes only used for a part for the organ. (Go)

Does the clock work?

[@AirchimeLTDproductions174]

What's the piece at 1:05 whatever it is, I find most sublime. :)

[@SADRailsim]

AAL1337 Productions you can find it down here in the reaction of Gerwin Hoekstra...;)

[@elaineperetti2116]

I am sad. I was there after dark and didn't know what I was taking pictures of until I was back in the states. I would have loved to see the inside of the church and heard its organ in person.

[@kevinrupp6323]

Is that a tracker organ?

[@SADRailsim]

Tracker, if you mean with Barker mechanism, yes. It is a noisy machine behind the console, but i the church it is not heard.

[@kevinrupp6323]

Thank, I thought it probably was. What a magnificent instrument

[@michaelhoerig5920]

Of course it is a tracker organ, assisted by by a Barker Lever, a pneumatic assist to the tracker action, enabling the coupling of manuals without making the touch too heavy to manage.
