My chamber organ

Brilliant. You have a magnificent organ, but I bet you get that a lot. LOL

<modest>Well, I wouldn't like to say...</modest>

The chamber organ was so successful that we used it again in very our next concert, last night, in Exeter College, Oxford chapel.  It was mainly used for accompanying Tudor and baroque pieces, some at low pitch (I added a stop button to switch):





Having the speakers away from the floor this time improved the sound, I'd say. 

Here is a sound sample

The West-end organ was used for romantic and modern pieces.  We also did a movement of Vierne's Messe solonnelle using the chamber organ as the choir organ for the two-organ scoring.  I extended the spec with an extra open 8' stop to give a fuller sound for this piece:



Listen to the Vierne

Orbert:
Next up: renting this baby out to folks who need an instrument that plays at authentic Baroque pitch.  Profit!

pwhodges:
First try last week; that choir decided that they wouldn't pay for a second organist (it was doing the same Vierne mass).
