Transigo Platea

[musicalis]

Hi !

Transigo Platea is a short and very soft music for religious office.
I wrote it a few years ago, but recorded it today with Kloria MyOrgan (open source virtual organ). The organ set I used is "Orgue de Salon", a very small organ with 2 manuals and pedal and only 5 stops.

MP3 without reverb and 4 pages PDF can be downloaded for free at :

I hope you will enjoy.

Hi J.P.
Nice little piece of music,would be interesting if played on a larger organ with more stops,a bit more variation perhaps?I was impressed with the Toccato Negra (CavailleColl) from the same site.I also have a question about Kloria MyOrgan and Hauptwerk,is one better than the other one, or does each one have it's pros and cons?

Hi Jean-Paul,

Nice little work there ... enjoyed it very much - I'll have to try it at church with some contrasting stops.

Hi !
I cannot answer to Caddis's question as I only have MyOrgan.

I think there are few differences between the two softwares as they use the same ODF (organ definition files), so may have the same features.
May be Hautptwerk-1 has some functions that lack to MyOrgan, such as included reverb, but I don't know. May be also, graphism (display) is better on HWK1. Can somebody tell us about these differences ?

For me, the most important difference between one and the other is the price : myOrgan is free, HWK1 is not.

About the registration of Transigo Platea, you can change it as you want. I did it as simple as possible, only to show what can be done with a very small virtual organ, without any additional effect.

Hi Jean-Paul,

I wasn't trying to be critical of your chosen registration for this piece - it's a rather a nice sound overall ... I'm one that likes to experiment around with lots of different stop combinations - sometimes I have to be very creative at church with only 9rks to choose from so that my presentations don't sound all the same.

Dear friend !
I know the problem of small organ, as I was organist in a small church.

About my music, if you have good ideas for registration please play the piece and post it in this topic, I'll be very happy.

Hi J-Paul,

Thanks ... I might do that, but not until after my organ concert which is just two weeks away ... ...

Hello Jean Paul, I agree with Kh, very nice piece of work.
Do you mind if I print out the PDF and play it at my local church?

Hi Jonesey !

I do not mind at all, I will be very happy if you play my music.
If, you do it, please, send feedback.
