Organs (cinema, theatre, church, etc)

Hi all Quite a test for our music system at my church today. Our pianist is away, so the phantom piano will have the whole day of services to show its mettle as it were. Once the piano is switched on & the default volume set on the piano, all of the control passes from the organ. That is the theory anyway. We meet ages before the start of the morning service so as to have a run through, the above picture from a few weeks ago. The piano now remains permanently coupled to the organ, so our pianist can play his guitar if he so chooses. At other times, I can control whether the note data etc is being sent to the piano from the organ controls.

Some more for Philip - Ribe Cathedral, Jutland

I always enjoyed the theatre organs and singalongs! My first experience l think was at the Gaumont! The Empire, Rex, Lyric, Globe, Savoy, Rialto, all had them!

Inyoni, ABC Minors - Empire, The Lambeth Walk never sounded the same after the organ.

Another for Philip Trinitatis Church, Copenhagen

Post 62: So the old Cathedral organ could not have been played by Handel as is sometimes claimed, unless the Willis build incorporated parts of the original which may be possible. Edited by member, 25th May 2019 6:42 pm

Hi all A picture from 1st April, 2018 (my birthday), where Sam & I are leading the morning worship. I was unaware of the picture being recorded until I saw it on another website - possibly Sam was aware by his outward expression. The time of the picture was 11.08am, but by the markers in the hymn books, it was obviously at the start of the service. Thank you all for your contributions to this thread. ps. I can just make Pam's face in the congregation, further to the back. This before the dreadful illness that she is now coping so well with.
