• 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.

We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

You do me too much honour but thank you - however, I'd say it's a safe bet that what I came up with is nothing like anything that JSB was thinking!

Andrew, loved that Glenn Gould link thanks. It's a shame that the full piece was pulled from yoot yoob as I would like to have heard it. There were some interesting links on that page to some other vids on fugue, one of the more quirky of which was the one on Britney Spears "Oops I Did It Again" :eek::p:nut:. (Some people have too much time on their hands)

Hi Soubasse,

yeah, I did not find anything better for this piece of Glenn Gould in Internet, looks like it is not a free domain and one has to order it. The scores are actually available online. I have heard a broadcast dedicated to this piece recently , so I guess it was even aired in full length. Wonderful music written with a great sense of humour ( well, Glenn Gould was it...):).

The name of Britney looks cool in such company - why, Britney Spears, BWV2003...Maybe somebody wanted you to analyse "Oops.."?;)

Btw, I guess the device on your avatar is Kurzweil K2500. Am I right?

Cheers
Andrew

Well the chap who did the "Oops" fugue (a nickname that could have been given to so many things :D) actually published the score online, so I couldn't resist a look. It's been well done apart from a couple of false relations which I strongly suspect were errors of the scoring progam he used.

Kurzweill K2500? I guess there are facial similarities but no, lovely as the Kurz would have been, I had to settle for an Ensoniq ASR-10 (not that there's anything wrong at all with it, it's an excellent board and I need something for all my Mellotron samples :grin:) My son Raphael was enjoying playing a burp sample as that photo was taken.
