I have heard Bradley play twice at my Alma Mater, Emory & Henry College in Virginia. He is amazing!

Now in Austin, I miss "The Mort" six blocks from my Dallas home as I watched it being built. I've heard nothing, NOTHING better. Also thanks to Mary Preston. You both rock my world!

agreed, the mics picked up the low pedal tones quite well at 10:52 and 20:35 if you have capable headphones or subwoofer you can actually feel them. :)

Great presentation and nice to get a chance to hear the Resonance division by itself. Still is funny to hear how when close to the organ, it sounds like being stuck in a traffic jam of honking cars (but sounds majestic out in the venue)

I was playing The Planets at the Meyerson center with the UT symphony when I was in undergrad when I first heard this instrument. it startled me a great deal because it felt like the earth shifted when the organ first entered. I had entirely forgotten there was even an organ in The Planets because I had only played it with the comparatively wheezy organ in the hall at UT

The many D.C. power supplies are needed for the stop action. It takes quite a bit of current to drive a slider board back and forth across a windchest.

So that I understand this organ a bit more, the Resonance division is electric-action but the pedal is not. Also, when looking at the specs, I see the couplers labeled "...to Resonance" and "... to Great". What are the differences between the two sets? Finally, how much of the organ does the General Tremulant affect?

For those LOW NOTES a better microphone is needed as it could barely reproduce/capture those low frequencies. I have really good headphones that go down to 5Hz and I could barely hear those low notes

It shouldn't matter whether he's married to a woman or a man. It's rude of you to speculate and cast your narrow-minded stereotypes onto someone because you're either jealous of them or your bigoted worldview doesn't allow for variations in talents and skillsets across the gender spectrum. I'm sure that he, his wife, and their family, friends and fans will be just fine carrying out their beautification of this world without paying any attention to your sad ignorance. Hopefully you'll grow out of it someday and learn to appreciate the worth and value of every human being whether or not they conform to your expectations.

I think you are saying this, Tim, because of his shoes. Keep in mind, playing organpedals involve an elaborate technique of alternating heel and toe. So the shoes might look a little feminine, rest assured it´s about technique.
