• 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.

    Many kind regards

Absolutely love all the works of van Hulse ... he was born here (Tucson, Arizona) and played in a local church (St. Peter & Paul RC) for many many years.

Fascinating film CD. The o ordination required to play a piece like that must be phenomenal.

Indeed........Jeanne Demessieux wrote a piece called "Octaves" for organ - and it requires quite the gymnastics with the feet.

That's not true.
Camil van Hulse was born in Sint-Niklaas (Belgium, Europe) in 1897 and he moved to Oklahoma (and later Tucson, Arizona) in 1923. In 1924 he became organist in the All Saints Church and later on for the St. Peter and Paul Church. Finally he dies at 91 in Tucson.
