• 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.

Hi J.P.

Thank you for once again sharing so freely of the fruits of your labor. I firmly believe that JSBach, had he the resources of some of todays "mega-organs" and "virtual" organs, would approve most heartily. He chafed at Church Councils and other Organists for being so limited and provincial in their views and creativity.

Humbly,

CD :tiphat::tiphat::tiphat::tiphat:

J-S Bach is my idol. Do you think that he would have liked this baroque prelude recorded with a virtual organ ?

No question he would have approved. He seemed to always be searching for new ways to express his and other's music.

This baroque work of yours is refreshing much in the same way as Bach ... I can see why he is your idol ... well, mine too, along with Buxtehude, Pachelbel and Mendelssohn.

I have a new appreciation for your music now that I've recently upgraded my PC sound system with better desktop speakers and a sub-woofer - finally able to enjoy all the nuances of your splendid compositions.
