He's a lot faster and more systematic about organ demos than other organists, and actually because of that I'm able to make better sense of what makes each division unique.

I'm tingling all over. I found this video, after listening to 'Hall of the Mountain King', played on this instrument, and am SPEECHLESS. The characteristics of the room are ideal, too. And the Organist is amazing. This is as good as it gets.

Hungary, Budapest rocks. My Home Town.

WOW. What a fantastic instrument. It must be a wonderful experience and privilege to attend an organ concert at this hall.

This organ has a beautiful sound when professionally recorded through the halls mics

Thank you Jonathan Scott.

Thank you - I love it when you give us an organ tour! Really appreciate you taking the time to do it!

Beautiful place, organ and musician too!

Fascinating! Thank you for the tour of that organ.

I didn't know the MüPa had an organ up until now. :o (Neither that there is an organ builder manufacture in Pécs.) And what a gorgeous one at that! Great video!

OMG that's beautiful. You are the greatest👍🎼🎶🎵🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

ESPETACULAR! ♥️ A sala é belíssima, o instrumento maravilhoso e Jonathan, mais uma vez, sendo super didático e simpático. Obrigado!

A great instrument, and very informative video!

A manual only for chamade hmmmm I would use that every day

What a cool instrument...

Fascinating to hear you explain the capabilities of this wonderful instrument Jonathan . Thank you. Would be interesting to see in a similar instrument how the Console is moved down onto the stage.

Thank you!

Thanks for the run-through.

I get chills on my spine when I listen to such monster organs powerful chords. Wow. Sadly not so many organs spread across latin america.

THANK, YOU!

Thanks for sharing Jonathan. Beautiful instrument?

I did enjoy it. Thank you. Now I want to hear it in person! Hope you get an invite next year! 🎹🎶✈

I really like these videos...😁

WOW what a beast

Ohh my home country. 😊

A beaut beast !

Thank you for this demonstration! I’ve been long waiting for such information about this organ. Almost everything findable about it is in Hungarian. Xaver Varnus has a big tour video about it ( channel everythingaboutxaver ) but cannot understand a bit about what he says.

Isn’t this the instrument the largest Hauptwerk sampleset is based on?

Mr. Scott I hope to see you play Sydney Town Hall grand organ one day...

Please do a CD here!

Блестящий!

THIS GUY IS A MONSTER!

What did you play in concert? That Voce Humana 8 in the Solo is splendid.

with an organ almost everything is possible huh.

Franz Liszt would have loved this in his day. He played the Trocadero before a large gathering of famous Parisian composers, to great acclaim! These large European instruments seldom exceed 100 stops, yet they soar beyond organs in many other countries!

Very beautiful organ. A little mistake : Muhleisen is not a german society but à french sociey. Antoine Dietrich

Ernest Mühleisen (1897 in Germany, + 1981 in Strassburg) founded "Manufacture d’Orgues Muhleisen" in 1941 in Strassburg. The company has about 16 employees. Konrad Mühleisen-his nephew-founded "Orgelbau Mühleisen" 1986 in Leonberg near Stuttgart. His company has 22 employees and has built and renovated more than 100 organs since then. I don't know whether those 2 companies work together. So it's not a mistake.

Those reeds are really rough sounding. The Tuba, which is on high pressure, is smooth though powerful. It does not rely on splatting sound in your face the way case trumpets and brassy reeds do.

Polish version please 😊😊

I reckon the Chinese orchestra sounded superb with this instrument.

Mühleisen organ builders are in France (Alsace), not Germany.

Absolutely fantastic one of kind instrument. But a 1000 Euro keyboard can do a lot more can't it.?.

R Ds not on your nelly mate how many speakers does the 1000 euro keyboard have? This instrument has perhaps 8000+ pipes, that's 8000 speakers not 10 lol No speaker in our lifetime will ever be able to replicate the sound and more over the volume that the mighty organ can do. As an ex organ builder I can vouch for the stomach churning vibration that a big instrument can produce. Put it in a cathedral and it is mind blowingly beautiful!

The crescendo roller is on the wrong side for me. :-)

Thats interesting, being both direct electric? and tracker? where as the other organ is just a direct electric?

@Engineer9736

It’s the same organ. Just two consoles. The one on the stage being only electric indeed.

LOL, you copied the Specifation! It's german... Very nice demonstration

Interesting - A brand new organ with a roller for a crescendo instead of the pedal. The reeds are at the bottom of the stack instead of at the every top over all the other stops. Mechanical as well as electric coupling. Well that is an unnecessary munch of mechanical gadgets especially since it touch, According to Jonathan is Heavy - So why would anyone want to use an organ with heavy touch instead of modern day coupling systems. OHHH - That right - organs were built to "Feel" the valves opening, not to really play anything. And Great Great Grandfather did it that way - Why change?? One manual - the keyboards usually cost $2000 just for case mounted reeds. What a waste. It would appear that there are no mutations in the major choruses. Interesting - whatever happened to "Harmonic Series" - Well, no need for those, say "Modern cost and quality curring organ builders. The North Germans in those little stone churches didn't use them on occasion, why should we put them in (We can save $25,000 per stop leaving them out.) And who cares about good tonal structure in any case. There is one thing not in question. Mr. Scott will make this thing sound like the best organ ever built in Hungary. (That sustanuto is an interesting gimmick. A pencil would be cheaper. In all your playing I have seen only once when you needed a sustained note. And what did Lamere, Fox, Biggs, Elsassar, Widor, Franck, Mdm Alain and everyone else do before this clever gadget was added to organs. By the way - Wurlitzer had this back in the 1915 period. Glad someone is catching up with modern technology. Very nice presentation, Jonathan. You are the best recitalist presenting organ music for the people. Wonderful job you have done. Great job and we all look forward to more.

The whole organ costs like 4.5 million euros i read somewhere sometime, iirc. 2000 for a manual is like a penny on that scale.. Who says that they want to save money? That whole building is about spending multiple thousands on every square meter.

@@Engineer9736 4.5 million euros?? That's like 45,000 euros per stop. I think (though I'm not sure) that's on the high side. With that sort of money, they could have bought two separate organs - a 30-stop 3-manual tracker baroque organ tuned in an unequal temperament, and a 60-stop symphonic organ with electric action. These tracker organs with 90+ stops just don't make any sense.

This is one of the few organs for which I don't care for the tone quality. It's always too reedy. It's like someone smashed a bunch of German organs together.

Is it just me or that organ's facade is so disarranged

Mr. Scott, it must be a bitch on your finances travelling all over Europe etc. Are you a millionaire or lottery winner ?

You can change the speed in "Settings" to .75 He is a fast speaker and he sounds quite normal slowed down. Any slower he would sound strange! Thanks Jonathan. There is a new sample set available on Hauptwerk which is a big improvement on the original samples.
