Indeed it does, quite devine.

For those interested, this is an A.A. Hinsz organ, built in 1786.
3 Manuals, 79 Ranks - in Martinkerk in Groningen, Netherlands

Krummiest - you're a bottomless pit of useless but fascinating information.

[Krummhorn]

Thanks, CT64 ... I try, mate ...
Actually, curiosity gets the better of me on organs like this ... I'm always on the quest for more knowledge.

[FinnViking]

For a longer time it has puzzled me why the authorities have not forced Youtube to be closed, as it seems to be an ever-growing source for illegally posted videos. I am sure that John Propitius has not allowed the entire content of his new DVD to be posted there. The same applies hundreds and thousands of DVD rips there.

"the Authorities"? Now which authorities would you mean in particular, it's a global thing and a ban from one country doesn't necessarily mean a ban in another sadly.

I think we should consider a thread 'Challenge Krummhorn' and post pictures of the organs we play at our Churches - see how many he can identify.

What do you think Krummhorn?

[Krummhorn]

Hmm, well I'm not that bored ...

No, it is not global, the headquarters are located in California. According to Wikipedia, there have already been an increasing number of lawsuits against it.

Man, what an interesting sound from that Hinsz organ. And a nicely played improv on the hymn-tune featured in the video.

The most beautiful sounding and beautiful work of art in a pipe organ!
