Toccata and Fugue in D Minor BWV 565 J.S. Bach - WORLD’S LARGEST PIPE ORGAN

Музыка

Toccata and Fugue in D Minor by J.S. Bach performed on the world’s largest pipe organ “Midmer-Losh Pipe Organ” in Boardwalk Hall Auditorium in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The pipes are embedded into the walls of the Auditorium. The organ has 7 manuals, 449 ranks, 337 registers and 33,114 pipes. Absolutely Incredible

    @@johnsantrizos7638 The hurricane actually didn't damage the pipes and chests at all. They're far too high up. What it did do was damage the blowers, which have all been fixed, and completely destroy the combination action. That has since been replaced as well. All the damage to the actual pipes and chests was from water leaks and careless construction workers.

    I just have to add a bit of basic information for any novices watching. This is a pipe organ. There is absolutely no amplification, microphones, or loudspeakers involved. All the sound is generated by giant air blowers feeding rows upon rows of wind-powered pipes.

    The sound here is incredible and it's a phone recording. The bass and reverb is outstanding! I say this having listened to SO MANY professional recordings where there is NO bass at all! What's the point of Bach (with amazing lines in the pedal), if you can't even really hear the pedal?! So this is a FANTASTIC recording. On my Bach Organ playlist, this one is actually the recording with the most bass. That means, the Coda at the end sounds better here, than it does on almost any other recording I've heard on KZread!

    It really impressed me when I finally did the grand tour last year. I did the mini tour my first trip after I realized the train was not running from Philly. I wound up on bus. But last year, the trains resumed. One takeaway of seeing riggers working was what they said. Nobody of any trade, any job, any company, or any entity is allowed to do anything forward of halfway in the room without permission of the Boardwalk director. This is from work done decades ago that wound up with workers walking over hundreds of pipes and smashing them flat. Plus them cutting massive cable bundles.

    I’ve seen a few videos of this organ playing and I didn’t realize that this was the largest in the world. I thought the organ in Germany, St. Stephen’s Cathedral I believe. Hearing any large pipe organ is breathtaking. I have been to a cathedral in Southern California many times growing up and the organ there was incredible. Over 16,000 pipes. It vibrates your inner core. Miss going there. Church has changed but I’m pretty sure it still has the organ.

    The Midmer-Losh instrument is lovely - too bad professional equipment was not set up to capture that performance.....unless there have been updates, I must point out that only 125 ranks of the organ, on the right side of the stage are playable. The left side suffered the most damage and it is going to take about 14 million dollars and some years to restore that side. The 64-foot pipe is located on the right side and playable. Let's hope that once this organ is restored (if ever), that it will receive both the upkeep and protection it deserves to prevent falling into a deteriorating condition again!

In fact, the left forward (Choir division) is almost done, the chamber has been cleaned and painted and the restored chests are back in. In addition, the 100" reeds in the right center have been restored and are online.

    Pretty cool! I noticed the SHEER POWER of some of the pedal work, probably using 32' stop(s), if not maybe even a 64' stop or two. I have it on my BUCKET LIST to play this beast one day before I die. I'm currently 53 years old. By the way, the recording here is really not all that shabby. I heard a little bit of talking toward the beginning, and the recording was a bit late. Other than that, really not that bad. I'm surprised it caught as much of the dynamics of the organ as what it did. From a fellow organist in West Virginia, John Nozum

    There are two 64' stop tabs on the console, the Dulzian and the Diaphone Profunda. Due to space the Dulzian was kept. The bottom 22 pipes of the Dulzian are diaphone pipes. The rest are reeds.

    It has a 64' stop and ten 32' stops, eight of which currently work. Two of the 32s are on 50" wind pressure. It's pretty safe to say it's unrivaled.

    Well, despite the fact that the recording was apparently done using a tiny device, a phone likely, that pedal bass was brutal, like abyssal. I have never heard anything similar. I guess a combination of the several 32' reeds and the 64' Diaphone, possibly with mutation stops. Now we need a proper recording on this monster dwelling the gigantic edifice.

    Consider. We tend to think of power in horsepower as in cars. But in this case it's compressed air power. Now ONE horsepower equals 745 watts. The total power of the blowers in this beast is somewhere about 300 horsepower I have heard. So that's 223,500 watts of available pneumatic pressure that can be converted to sound. I bet that would give even Taylor Swift's sound system some competition! I think one problem has to be that various things in the hall tend to rattle at different notes. Must keep someone busy just chasing rattles?

    the organ is hidden "in the walls". On both sides of the stage You can see arches: behind those are the two biggest organ chambers in this instrument. Another two are on the walls adjacent to those two. That's four. And we're still not done. Around where the camera is are the other four chambers. On both sides of the auditorium there is a chamber in the wall and in the ceiling. This instrument is enormous.
