Thanks so much for posting more of these shorts on the great organs of our past ( and most still with us by the way). Hope you don't mind me making a special playlist with them all. I have dedicated my channel to mostly organ music and I have a collection of 11 electronic organs which I play regularly. I hope to have an organ museum some day. The organ is often thought of as a dying art form, but really there are more players than ever who are serious about the craft. I am partial to the tone of the analog electronic organs more than the ' Hauptwerk ' virtual organ software. Although impressive it just doesn't have the same warm, up front character of the 1935-1972 organs ( and some between 72'-82', but this is when they switched to the integrated circuit models which increased features, but decreased tonal character...except the very top models).

"electronic" organs dont sound anything like pipe organs as they base their sound on synthetic tones. Hauptwerk organs use real sampled pipes and sound closer to the real thing.
