All that glorious orchestral tone in just a little over 3600 pipes. Proof you don’t need 10,000 pipes to make a statement! I absolutely love this particular Father Willis instrument. I doubt I’ll ever get to hear it in person as I’m located across the pond but it’s wonderful so many recordings have been made on this special instrument. Salutations from Illinois USA. 😉❤️🎶

Those 3 open diapasions in unison are divine ! Fills the room glorious

What a fantastic instrument! Thank you Jeffrey for this introduction and looking forward to the recital. Thank you Richard for the amazing audio and video production and making this possible!

Wonderful! I can only imagine how this must sound in this magnificent cathedral.

I’ve sung here a couple of times and let me tell you it’s unreal… some pieces literally have made me cry from how beautiful it sounds echoing around me. The organist plays to the building expertly as well

One of the greatest cathedrals, with an organ to match it! And a great demonstration. 😁

I've played this organ, What a monster, The whole balcony shook under the power of that 32' Reed.

Sensational instrument!

Wonderful instrument, what beautiful sounds in the midst of super acoustics.

Whoever took the care to make sure every stop and combination was shown onscreen accurately for the entire video is a SAINT! ♥ Beautiful instrument, amazing playing, heavenly architecture and acoustics.

Gorgeous voices. Reverb throughout the catherdral is perfect (to my ear). Another beautiful organ warranting preservation for all time. Thanks for sharing this.

WOW! What an awesome instrument. Father Willis knew just what was required to make this glorious sound without over-doing the number of ranks but what a statement this instrument makes. It's probably unlikely that I'll get to hear it live but this video demonstrates the near-perfect acoustics of the cathedral.

Thank you. I am increasingly a fan of Father Willis. Just love the Hereford sample set.

I love the fact that you always kept quiet at some moments so that we listen to the ecoustic echoes of the cathedral

Ooo. Aaa. I am SO looking forward to this. Thank you Richard and Jeffrey.

You’ll LOVE it!!

Certainly the most beautiful organ in England. And what a very musical presentation from this virtuoso organist. Wow. He deserves this organ and this organ deserves him!!!

Nice touch putting the ranks on the side and going through them so we can see exactly whats playing.

When hearing a magnificent example of a Father Willis organ, my mind's eye paints a most glorious picture of an English Cathedral situated in somewhere in the countryside e.g. Durham Cathedral as seen from the riverside of the River Wear. Just so much drama and breath-taking beauty. Thanx a trillion to Richard McVeigh and Jeffrey Makinson for making it happen.

Wow! I’ve always enjoyed hearing Father Willis Organs. I’m glad I got to here this organ get demonstrated. Well voiced foundations of all different varieties, a lot of clear, well-voiced upper work and mutations, and a great variety of colorful solo reeds and fiery chorus reeds too.

An extremely good tour.

Richard so so sorry I missed this! Unbelievable how busy I've been today! Will watch on replay! See you tomorrow 😊

Thank you Richard, it was wonderful to see and hear Lincoln cathedral and the Father Willis. Thanks to Jeffrey too for his playing.

Thank you. A wonderful instrument.

Lovely instrument. And that is why it will always remain to be the King Of All Instruments.

Thank you for this organ demo. I toured Lincoln Cathedral in 2005. It’s absolutely beautiful. Cheers from Canada!

Wow that amazing Really enjoyed that Richard! My Speakers enjoyed the rumbling bass on this organ! :-)

a very impressiv instrument and beautiful demonstration. Thank you very much!

I am an orgel- lover! And this really spoke to me!! I loved it Thank you!!🥲🥰🎹🎹🎹

Jeff this came up on my feed ! Nice mate - Always remember your brilliance when you played with St Mildred’s . Lovely to see you talk and play the instrument at Lincoln - Wayne Wilkins

“Fairest in All the Land”! I certainly would have to agree. Fabulous organ with Spectacular Acoustics as well. I wish I had sung here on my 3 singing tours of England. I must go back to hear Lincoln, Blackburn, and some of the smaller Victorian organs I’ve been following.

Lincoln Cathedral is an absolutely stunning building, and Lincoln itself is a lovely City. Well worth visiting 😊

Simply brilliant. Thank you.

I confirm this instrument is beautiful it reminds me of my adolescence

If this instrument were sampled I’d get a virtual pipe organ first thing tomorrow!

This is a beautiful demonstration by Jeffrey - such a moving instrument and the perfect mariage of organ and building!

Jeff that was fantastic, thank you so much!

What a great tour! Super instrument and demo! Thank you for the gift of audio and video!

Thank you Jeffrey for a great demonstration of a magnificent organ. You are most correct in saying it sings throughout the entire cathedral, wonderfully balanced and clear tones. Richard, thank you for your excellent recording of this (and many other) pipe organs throughout Great Britain. By far the best organ videos I have heard on KZread. Very well done.

Amazing how they make this organ play and how you learn to play it. Thanks for your clip

wow wow WOW. Thank you so much Jeffrey and Richard. Superbly well explained and I had no difficulty following. The tone of this glorious instrument is just something else. I'l be looking for concert videos recorded on the beautiful instrument.

Brilliant - giving this organ an amount of publicity is one of the reasons why I do these recordings… so people are more inclined to seek them out in real life! 👍🏻

This organ is incredible... Sound and abilities are marvellous !

The organ is beautiful and awesome the playing is very peaceful, swell and spiritual. 🎹🙏🎼

Wonderful 🎉

Outstanding- one of the finest cornet ever heard on an organ 👌🏻👍🏻🍻

I really enjoy these demos. This organ has such great speaking stops and is well-rounded. Well thought-out. Keep these coming!!

Just beautiful. Such a light and transparent tone from such a large instrument.

What an amazing instrument!! Thanks very much for the tour!

My God what a really fantastic instrument when I see the number of pipes or more exactly pipes!!!!

👏👏 Outstanding. Thanks 😃

What an impressive number and in addition the sound of the trumpet is very beautiful I admire the amount of juice finally when I already have half I'm rather amazed that the exact word I love musical composition like that an improvisation that we remember it becomes a composition

Some awesome sounds, wonderful acoustics. Superb demonstration.

Me: studying the stop combos as if I'll ever play an organ

The best stop on any organ is actually the acoustic. And this I believe is what Lincoln Cathedral Willis is blessed with ! It's also interesting to note that in every divison the mixtures are 12-19-22. Don't know if that is a Willis trait ? And unusually too a concert flute at 4ft on the choir. Normally u find that stop on the solo.

I was very keen to incorporate as much of this wonderful acoustic into this recording as possible without it getting in the way of any clarity.

Great sounding organ and room! However, Dublin was the last of Willis's Cathedral organs.

Ah, well there you go!

A terrific instrument in a great acoustic environment and very nicely demonstrated. Also a very good recording and I’m really fussy! But I’m a bit confused as to how a pre-1900 organ can have a push button general cancel. Surely electromagnetic or electro pneumatic systems weren’t yet invented??

Will our BIS host soon be making a demo/recording of the Wonder Machine at Liverpool Anglican Cathedral? That would be smashing. The acoustic space and the instrument residing there is just about like Heaven on Earth imho.

When are you going do Liverpool Cathedral? 😊

Personally, I know that you are a little fond of hymns in general at home, but I have a clear preference for the romantic, what is your opinion on that?Louis Vierne, César Franck composer from home And all 19th century composers in general, but of course I really like bac like many people.

I counted the number of stops it's impressive I see that it's indicated on the left of the screen.... almost all my life it has been the organ..... personally for the composition you have to touch the keyboard I explain to myself the inspiration of being that by directly touching the keyboard I do not think by the box of writing and staff and of all the rest finally it's unfortunately like that or fortunately I don't know how to say that we compose

The buffet is already impressive when I see the Number of watches since it is by this denomination that we define what people call organ pipes tell me if I'm right maybe I'm wrong

Would you play Mozart k 608 for me? Please!🙏🙏🙏
