• 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

PS was the above link a deliberate joke? Hilarious! At first glance I thought they'd mis-spelt "diary" :D:D

I loved their version of Faure's Apres un Reve. I believe the piano/harmonium duo was very popular in the 19th century (when the harmonium was cutting-edge technology!), and was actually used in the original version of this well-known piece ...

It also features in the excellent film "Topsy Turvey" which tells the story of how Gilbert and Sullivan came to write The Mikado. At one point in the film Sullivan's song "The Lost Chord" is performed with piano/harmonium accompaniment.
