• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

    In order to post a new topic - or reply to existing ones - you may join and become a member by clicking on Register New User. It's completely free and only requires a working email address (in order to confirm your registration - it will never be given away!). We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

Looking for a website

Some time ago I stumbled on a website about an organ. I bookmarked the website, intending to go back later, but I lost the link when I had to format my PC.

All I can remember is that the organ had 2 consols, a mechanical consol attached to the organ and a loose consol, in the shape of a chello that could be moved around on the stage. The pipes were attached to the front of the balcony, 3 stories high.

Does anyone know of this organ/website?

And to think I spent days trying to find the website again and 15 minutes after posting the request I had the right link!

Thanks Marc!

You're welcome!

I admit: working with searching terms is, so to speak, almost my daily bread and butter.

Here's what I did.
Went to Google, typing these entries organ console shape cello .... and voila, the first link was the right one. :)

I'm more used to finding stationary and computer suppliers online, I never thought to search for the SHAPE of a console. I tried to remember every specification I could remember from the website, except for the obvious one.
