Multiple manuals, particularly on Theatre Organs were set up for a wider range of voicing and were played un coupled.

As the number of people who love organ classics is gradually falling, it is transcriptions of modern classic like this that will keep up audiences and thus the maintenance of the instrument. I wish there were more organists that played these. Thanks Josh.

​​@@lo2740you're right. They can do more. But they will always one thing they cant reproduce. An organic sound. A PC+Keybord produce sounds we recognice as music. But an organ (this organ isnt a church organ by the way, more like a theatre organ the intonation is quite different) sings. An organ has a very special character of its own. No organ sounds ghe same as the other, every instrument has its own quirks and little flaws witch make them an work of art on their own. Every Organ is almost like a new friend. You cant just sit down and play, you need to gdt a feeling for it. Everytime i sit down on an organ bench i greet the instrument. Pull out some stops and work my way up to tutti slowly to learn where each register is placed, which keys start the windflow at which point (even though there shouldn't be a big difference) and how each register is tuned and how it sounds in this specific room and instrument. Its just a very organic feeling to play at a real (almost living) instrument, then on somethin dead like a midi keyboard. Both things have their place in the moder world. But I will allways choose my organ over any keyboard out there. Little note: most of the organs i habe played here in germany are still fully mechanic instruments with wooden tractures/actions that open the pipes for the windflow. There are also electrical and pneumatic organs that work totaly dofferent to mechanical ones and i've never played such an instrument. So i just talked about mechanical organs.

The instrument was constructed approximately 1930 in Atlantic City, New Jersey USA. I imagine if they _had_ somehow known that a flamboyantly gay guy's music would be played and listened to by well over 2 million people across the globe, they probably would have burned the damned thing down out of spite.

I will never understand how some organists can slap a couple of diapasons on a manual or two and run an entire selection with them. Not so here - he uses FIVE of the seven manuals to get a ton of tonal variations, even using three manuals simultaneously a couple of times. Kudos to Mr. Stafford for his imaginative genius in taking advantage of the tremendous flexibility this organ offers (and of course to the restoration team - without their long hours of work many of the stops he's using wouldn't be operational).

Philosophically they're not _as_ complex as they look: each of those switches to the sides lets one of the keyboards control a particular set of pipes. It's just that there's _so many_ switches and keys, with some combinations allowing duplicates.

That was cool. My dad played the organ. Something I never learned. I just wish I could have been there to feel the “might” of the world’s largest pipe organ.

Dear @Garret Lewis , Still it is possible to get pretty close to "feel the 'might' of the world's largest pipe organ" in you own room ! Though I have to tell you: it will be kinda expensive.. You'll need to get a "high end" stereo set with ewal good loudspeakers - and (this really is essential !!) a high grade "active sub base speaker" (note: that is definitely NOT the same as a "sub woofer" aka "boombox", used in cars !) My sub base speaker is a "R.E.L. Q150E" and it is perfectly suited for a not-so-very-large room. (In fact it's in my sleeping room. In the living room I got an even bigger stereo set and a bigger "R.E.L." sub base speaker. Yes, I'm an eclectic music lover e.g. compositions by Mr. J. S. Bach). Mind you: it is extremely important you try to find the right place to put your sub base speaker - in fact the acoustic properties of a room are a big part of the "sound equation". After you found this "sweet spot" take care to adjust your sub base correctly, meaning: not TOO freaking loud ! The sounds of your two stereo speakers and the deep sound of the sub base should "blend in" to be one (formidable) sound reproducing system. I hope you manage getting all this equipment - and get all the wires, adjustments right - and then you may enjoy the awesome might of huge pipe organs, yes: in your own room ! Btw. you may need an experienced friend or else get professional help, if you're no technician. Because it is certainly not easy to assemble a high end stereo set correctly - e.g. using very good (not too long !) cables are also really important. But if it all works the way it's supposed to - you'll have an awesome sound reproduction system, that will give you many years of sheer musical enjoyment ! Blessed Be. ❤😊😊❤

Freddy would have tears of joy in his eyes. Great job!

This video is part of the reason I want to learn the organ so much. I just imagine being surrounded by such a musical workspace with no concern but the sound.
