One of my absolute favourite organs of all time. I had the joy to play there a concert with an ensemble for Old Music some weeks ago and I enjoyed every minute of playing there. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderfull playing with us!!! Little correction: Edo Evers didnt built a short octave, Evers's Keyboard started at F WITHOUT C, D and E. In the mid 18. century, Johann Adam Berner extended it to C without Cis and used old material for it. They didnt reconstructed it in the 1990s, because Berners Extention fits to the style and because then you dont have to miss the tones C, D and E for the church services. The Krummhorn is in parts from 1830 and in parts original.

It's so funny--the tone of this organ is so rich and interesting that I didn't even realize until the very end that there's not even a pedal division!

There's a pulldown pedal, probably playing the Werk. But it's really not that unusual to find small German organs of this period and even later without pedal stops.@@HenrikBergpianorganist

Thanks Balint for this wonderful presentation from Osteel. I agree that the two 4' flutes are really noteworthy, but I also especially like the Trompete on this organ. It's excellent in the combination with Octave 4 and Quinte. Together with Rysum, Uttum and Norden this is one of my top 4 favourites in Ostfriesland.
Thank you for this excellent video! It's very well done and quite enjoyable! Absolutely wonderful!

This is absolutely mind blowing to see and hear such an old and unique organ. I am an organ tuner now, and I've been building and restoring an organ for a church local to my state. I've even seen you, Balint in the AGO magazines!! I too now play the organ for a church! I must say ny favorite demonstration was the spitzflote--it is so pretty to hear and you did such a wonderful job demonstrating it.

What a beautiful voicing, and indeed, the mixture is a bit too loud, it's a bit ear piercing. The 4' krummhorn is a worthy replacement for the regal, reeds are very smooth on this organ. Another fine example of a North German renaissance instrument.
@bkarosi9 ай бұрын
The Mixture was rebuilt by Ahrend
@jankla44199 ай бұрын
The mixture is definitively not too loud. Westerhusen 1643 and Buttforde 1681 have way sharper mixtures. For an organ from 1619 it fits that transition from late Renaissance to baroque very well.

Considering the Krummhorn is made from a Regal stop, wouldn't it be more appropriate to call them Krummhornregal. It would fit the description because it is a Regal Length stop with a Krummhorn sound. Actually more imitative of the actual instrument than French and German Traditional Krummhorn Stops. What a lovely Organ!

Balint, your videos get better and better with the historic places, churches and organs... but we all have now the example of BEN MATON, the Salisbury organists website, to reach the proper "Sitz im Leben" of any organ-music (he got 10000 new subscribers last month...)

I thought extended meant more than 12 notes per octave. Do they mean 'modified meantone'? @@bkarosi

Probably it means the fifths among the sharps and flats are tempered less than those among the naturals. The 'wolf' fifth G#-Eb should be less obstreperous.@@95tupolev

@richardholmquist73169 ай бұрын
With the Werk 4' - 3' -2' - Trompet I think the Mixture's strength is appropriate. So maybe we should think of the Trompet as the necessary base to the pleno. Flues 8'-4'-3'-2' form a much more restrained ensemble which we might call a 'consort' pleno.

You are aware that the organ is not really as you claim. When someone changes any part of an organ, painting, poem, story, from what the original creator intended, the organ, or other work under consideration, is no longer his. The pipes may still bear his name but the tone is Not of his making, thus the organ is no longer an example of his intentions. Granted it is bright and breathy and is a visual work of art as are most organs built before 1900 or thereabouts. The acoustics of the building are clean as well. Just enough reverberation to be happy. Note also, that the good builder of Europe always provided a complete series of harmonics in their Diapason chorus. 8-4-2-2/3- and 2'. The imitators of so called baroque organs leave out the important 3rd harmonic as unnecessary, surperfluous. That Mixture would break a crystal glass. Way too dominant. Mixtures should sneak in under everything else to brighten the bass and re-enforce the trebles. Nice flute.
@richardholmquist73169 ай бұрын
Yes, all that's true, but as almost no antique organs have gotten through the intervening centuries unscathed, this is about as close to the antique sound as we can get.
