Hullo from India

[Drinklicafix]

Hullo Everyone,:wave:
I really love this site, specially the forum on Pipe Organs.
I am 16 and a Pipe Organ addict. I like to collect as much information and pictures of historic Pipe Organs as I can. I mainly like Organ & Harpsichord music of the Baroque. Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I think I have come to the right place.
I searched for organs in India but couldn't find any. If anyone knows of any please let me know, I'm dying to hear one live.
I have learnt quite a bit from this forum and will try to contribute where ever I can. Also, if anyone is interested in some organ pictures, just message me. I currently have 342.:devil:

Hey!

I can't really help you on with the pipe organ information, but I just wanted to welcome you to the forums. I am of Indian descent actually; both my parents are from Maharashtra, but I was born in Canada.

Anyway, I'm sure you will be able to find what you're looking for - there are many knowledgeable posters around here. Once again, welcome!

Welcome

Hello Akash!

Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I think I have come to the right place.

Yes, you have come to the right place. We are all crazy here! :grin: Welcome!
I'm also a pipe organ addict you see, and love this huge fantastic instrument.

How did you become interested in pipe organs? They sound pretty good live, so I hope you'll find one someday.

Cheers
Hildegard

Hello Gareth, arianna and Hildegard,
Thanks for the welcome and nice to meet you all!

Yes, you have come to the right place. We are all crazy here! :grin: Welcome!

Glad to hear that!!
I first heard the organ maybe 5 years ago and I was addicted to it almost immediately. When I saw what one really looked like I was completely addicted!:grin: The first piece I heard was probably Tocatta & Fugue BWV 565. I have heard the complete organ works of Bach by André Isoir and I like his playing. Bach's organ Partitas are also one of my favourites.

arianna, I am originally from Punjab but I was born in South India.
Cheers All:cheers:
