Nice.
Reader may be interested to hear how church organs from Bach's time sound. My home town has two instruments, which can play this old music, such that it may sound like back then:
Organ from 1736: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkJRJ63_muk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkJRJ63_muk
Organ from 1675: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izZ2DdshFZk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izZ2DdshFZk
- gmueckl 7y agoI wonder how much continued maintenance has altered these instruments over the centuries.
- lispm 7y agoThere was quite a bit of change over the centuries. But they were among the first organs brought back to the baroque ideals and the original state as much as possible. There is a lot of information about these efforts, but mostly in German. Basically the Cosmae organ is now like it was in 1688. This was finished in 1975 and influenced a lot of other instruments to be brought back as close as possible to their original state. https://www.organartmedia.com/de/hus-arp-schnitger https://www.organartmedia.com/de/hus-arp-schnitger http://www.orgelbits.de/huss-schnitger.html http://www.orgelbits.de/huss-schnitger.html
