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.

ok. here it goes
first of all all you guys are music connoisseurs! (envy). I am definitely not. We are a school here in Greece building ancient Greek musical instruments for a museum. (If you want details, just let us know). We need some help in building pipes for a hydraulic organ. We don't want to sell anything, we don't want to advertise. All we need are some pipes!
We have already built a replica of an ancient Greek hydraulic organ. May I say it was a success! But, we need more help.
We are trying to build up a museum with ancient Greek instruments. We have already accomplished a great deal but with your help and interest we hope to do more.
So, that's why we are here

hello to all!
I'm back to say thanks and to inform you that we did it. We now have a small museum with reconstructions of ancient musical instruments in Katakolo, Greece!
