In that case, the organist may come close to fulfilling the original intent. More often, however, there are few if any regis- tration indications, leaving the choice of stops to the organist alone. When this is the case, the nature of the music itself, such as the musical texture and its form, are valuable registrational guidelines. MUSICAL TEXTURE refers to the nature of the horizontal and the vertical elements--that is, the lines and the chords--and the way that they interact. In organ registration, one can focus on a single musical element: relative prominence and nature of the parts. The word “parts” usually refers to the horizontal lines—the instrumental equivalent of the various choral parts (soprano, alto, tenor, bass). In some cases, a “part” can also refer to a series of chords. “Relative prominence and nature of the parts,” then, means “should one part be brought out? And is the nature of each part melodic or harmonic?” Each type of musical texture is best suited to a particular type of organ registration. The three primary types of organ registration combinations are as follows: 1. CHORUS registration (all upper parts are played on a single manual, plus a balancing pedal part) 2. SOLO AND ACCOMPANIMENT registration (a part is played on a prominent solo sound on one manual, with an accompaniment played on an chorus-type registration (see above) on another manu- al, and the pedal is balanced to the accompaniment) 3. TRIO/DUO registration (two parts are played on different manuals and a third part appears in the pedal; a duo omits the pedal) The following table will guide you through a process for determining the appropriate registrational type based on: 1. the number of manual parts, and 2. the relative prominence and nature of the parts. 3. A de- scription of the pedal function follows. (Note: read the table left to right.) 2. Describe the 1. What is the 4. Here are some examples of relative promi- Result: Use this 3.

To the casual observer the alphabetical ar- rangement of stop-names would seem doubtless to convey the impres- sion that yet a third dictionary of organ stops has been offered to the public. A closer scrutiny, however, should convince the reader that these pages do not seek to cover the same ground occupied by the ex- cellent treatises of W edgwood and of Audsley, but will, it is hoped, reveal the true aim and scope of the author.

It comprises an historic overview, a survey the organ, a report of existing conditions, and recommendations for the immediate care and ultimate restoration of the Sinclair Auditorium organ. To prepare this document, Jeff Weiler and Jonathan Ambrosino spent August 6 to August 10, and the morning of August 11: • playing the organ, inspecting the pipework, surveying mechanism and photo- The organ contains thousands of pipes, most of metal but documenting conditions; some of wood. These are in the Swell organ. • opening up windchests to determine the state of the internal leather; • creating an inventory of pipes stored in the basement; • removing the non-original Great Trumpet and reinstating the original First Open Diapason, formerly stored in the basement (the Trumpet stop was put into a storage box and arrayed in the basement storage area); • through-tuning all 57 ranks; • meeting with Brett Wolgast, Bill Carson and Dick Harmon to discuss the organ’s history, present and future. This document is a prolonged snapshot of the organ over a week’s visit. Our impressions here blend with experience from other Skinner organs to appreciate and describe its present condition.

  • Instruments of the Orchestra
    INSTRUMENTS OF THE ORCHESTRA String Family WHAT: Wooden, hollow-bodied instruments strung with metal strings across a bridge. WHERE: Find this family in the front of the orchestra and along the right side. HOW: Sound is produced by a vibrating string that is bowed with a bow made of horse tail hair. The air then resonates in the hollow body. Other playing techniques include pizzicato (plucking the strings), col legno (playing with the wooden part of the bow), and double-stopping (bowing two strings at once). WHY: Composers use these instruments for their singing quality and depth of sound. HOW MANY: There are four sizes of stringed instruments: violin, viola, cello and bass. A total of forty-four are used in full orchestras. The string family is the largest family in the orchestra, accounting for over half of the total number of musicians on stage. The string instruments all have carved, hollow, wooden bodies with four strings running from top to bottom. The instruments have basically the same shape but vary in size, from the smaller VIOLINS and VIOLAS, which are played by being held firmly under the chin and either bowed or plucked, to the larger CELLOS and BASSES, which stand on the floor, supported by a long rod called an end pin. The cello is always played in a seated position, while the bass is so large that a musician must stand or sit on a very high stool in order to play it. These stringed instruments developed from an older instrument called the viol, which had six strings.

  • From Basement to Barcheston Paul Hale
    something old, something new FROM BASEMENT TO BARCHESTON Paul Hale This is the story of the organ now to be found in the delightful Warwickshire church at Barcheston. It begins in 1973, when Longstaff & Jones (Telford-based organ-builders and maintainers) advertised in the organ press that they would like to build a new, small pipe organ. Geoffrey Holroyde had yearned for some time for a small house organ for regular practice, so Longstaff & Jones were soon engaged to build for him a compact instrument, using direct-electric action. The successful design consisted of four ranks of pipes (and a quiet electronic pedal Bourdon) providing two manuals and pedals, with no couplers thereby avoiding too much extension with its attendant ‘missing notes’. Tickell case design for Barcheston The carefully chosen vintage ranks of pipes were: A Wooden stopped Gedackt 8ft extended to 4ft 68 pipes B Open metal (stopped from TC down) 8ft 56 pipes C Smaller scale open metal 4ft extended to 2ft 68 pipes D Oboe (for the Pedal Organ) 8ft 30 pipes Specification: Lower manual B8ft A8ft C4ft A4ft C2ft Upper manual C8ft (bottom octave from B) A8ft C4ft A4ft Barcheston Church looking East Pedal 16ft D8ft B8ft A8ft B4ft A4ft C2ft 48 • March 2020 something old, something new The opening recital in Geoffrey’s house was given by the youthful Edward Higginbottom, who before Cambridge had played for Geoffrey’s flourishing choir at St Mary’s Collegiate Church, Warwick. In 1979, Geoffrey and his, by then, large family moved to a spacious Victorian four-storey house.
