• 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

Hi Unda Maris,

Welcome to MIMF ...
There is a wonderful PD (public domain) site IMSLP where much of this can be found.
That site has been a very valuable resource and part of my 'virtual' organ music library.

Happy hunting ... and we do hope that you will continue to be part of this forum community and enjoy conversing with fellow organists.

Thanks for the welcome, and sites..
I have one more question: where can I get "Rigaudon" (the fourth movement of Gordon Young's "Cathedral Suite") for free?

Thanks again!

. . . . . I have one more question: where can I get "Rigaudon" (the fourth movement of Gordon Young's "Cathedral Suite") for free? Thanks again!

Hmmm, Gordon Young is a contemporary (meaning, still living) so his works will be in copyright protection untial at least 70 years after his death. You'll just have to buy the copy I'm afraid.

MIMF does not support the illegal acquisition of "pirated" copies of copyrighted material - This forum is bound by Danish law, since it originates from within Denmark itself.

I must say that I greatly enjoy all of Gordon Young's organ compositions and have several of his compilations.

Sadly, it seems that Gordon Young died in 1998 – see this Wikipedia entry.

Nevertheless, there's still a sixty year wait before his works are due to come into the public domain.
