• 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.

Sullivan's organ use (not so uncommon)

Well, I have no shame in the fact that I'm a big fan of Sir Arthur Sullivan's music (whether it be The Mikado, his Irish Symphony, or his oratorios). Attached is a case where he uses the organ in the Prodigal Son. I can just hear the rumble, especially if the player uses at soft 32' flue tone.

It's not a "playable" file ... it's a "PDF" music written score. You need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) in order to view pdf's.

and, I just got the whole thing back from the printers, can't wait to take it home and salivate all over it (244 pages, tabloid size).
