  • Pipes of the Past: Registration Practices of Selected Composers for the American Centennial Era Organ
    PIPES OF THE PAST: REGISTRATION PRACTICES OF SELECTED COMPOSERS FOR THE AMERICAN CENTENNIAL ERA ORGAN By © 2019 Ian K. Classe M.M., Pittsburg State University, 2015 B.A., Truman State University, 2012 Submitted to the graduate degree program in the School of Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. Chair: Michael Bauer James Higdon Roberta Freund Schwartz Brad Osborn Susan Earle Date Defended: The dissertation committee for Ian K. Classe certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PIPES OF THE PAST: REGISTRATION PRACTICES OF SELECTED COMPOSERS FOR THE AMERICAN CENTENNIAL ERA ORGAN Chair: Michael Bauer Date Approved: ii Abstract American organ music prior to the twentieth century is a somewhat neglected area of organ study due to biases of early-twentieth-century academia. This lecture seeks to better familiarize the audience with a small section of that neglected study by examining the relationship between the organs, composers, and compositions of the Centennial era (ca. 1870–1900) through the lens of organ registration. This particular period of nineteenth-century American music became the era when American composers developed a quintessentially American culture around the organ—a culture which would provide the foundation for much of what came after it. By examining this period and its contributions, we gain a better understanding of later musical developments in the organ world and an appreciation for what came before. iii Acknowledgements I would like to offer special thanks to Dr. Rosi Kaufman, Director of Music at Rainbow Mennonite Church, for her knowledge and assistance on this project as well as facilitating my use of the Hook organ for the lecture recital.

  • The Organs of Trinity Church (PDF)
    The Organs of Trinity Church The First Instrument In the 1860’s, the Chapel (the original Church) had a reed organ for use in the worship service. After the new church was built (1871- 1873), this organ was used for Easter Services in April of 1873. It was later returned to the Chapel when a pipe organ was purchased for the new building in 1892. This picture is representative of the instrument that probably was in the Chapel, as there are no photographs of the actual instrument. In October of 1915, the Vestry authorized Mr. James Barrow to make some disposition of “the little organ” in the Chapel, and it was later sold and a piano put in its place. Organists playing this Reed Organ included the following: 1867 – 1878 – Mrs. Fannie Blish Horton 1880 – 1883 – Miss Nellie Franklin 1883 – 1885 – Miss Annie Yarnold The Second Instrument On February 11, 1892, through the efforts of the Reverend W. W. Ayres, the Vestry voted to authorize the purchase of a pipe organ to be installed. On February 18, 1892, a complete set of drawings of the new organ were presented along with a proposition to furnish a water motor for the purpose of blowing the bellows. Mr. Ayers was authorized at this meeting to correspond with Hook and Hastings and report at the March meeting of the Vestry their terms or best cash price. At the March 3, 1892 meeting, the proposition of Hook and Hastings to furnish a water motor for the organ was not accepted, but the purchase of the organ was approved.

  • Tracing Seven Hundred Years of Organ Registration 1300 – Present ---SCW (2010)
    Tracing Seven Hundred Years of Organ Registration 1300 – Present ---SCW (2010) . portions used for ALCM Conference workshop, “This, That, Neither, or Both,” June 2012, Bethlehem, PA, So, this all started when a student asked me questions about Spanish music about which I had not a clue . just think what would happen if they asked me about something really complicated!! _________________ 12 th century Theophilus, a monk, documented an organ that contained an ensemble of pipes speaking in octaves and fifths known as a Blockwerk , literally a ‘block of sound’ from which individual ranks could not be separated. 14 th and 15 th centuries – Late Medieval Organs Multiple manuals and split-chest systems enabled separating the Principal ranks from the higher Mixture sounds. By the 14 th century, there were pedals, fully chromatic keyboards, and tripartite façade arrangements accommodating large ‘bourdon’ or ‘tenor’ pipes. By the 2 nd half of the 14 th century, there was the addition of secondary manual and pedals on separate actions and wind chests. For organs built c. 1350-1400 (which can be translated to modern organs): >simple organ would be a Blockwerk of Mixtures, probably based on 4-foot pitch >double organ would add an octave lower at 8-foot pitch >RH would probably feature a decorative treble voice on the Blockwerk sound, while the LH on the ten lowest keys would sound the tenor on sustained Principals >the organ could be played so that only the ten tenor keys of the main manual were doubled an octave lower >4-foot Principal stops on a separate manual is an option >8-foot plenum for the tenor on one keyboard with other voices on the 4’ plenum Organ built in 1361, renovated in 1498, described by Praetorius: >two upper manuals were called Diskant with 22-note chromatic compass >third manual or Bassklavier had 12 keys from B to b >pedal had the same one-octave compass The Principal chorus of inseparable registers is the most heavily documented type of late- medieval organ.

  • Christ Church Cathedral, Cincinnati (Opus 1695), III/54
    Christ Church Cathedral, Cincinnati (Opus 1695), III/54 Walter Holtkamp, Sr., 1957 This organ is one of the last, and largest, to be built by Walter Holtkamp, Sr., a leading figure in the mid-twentieth century American organ reform movement. Holtkamp was a proponent of a clean, neo-classic sound that spoke directly into the room without the assistance of a case. The organ contains 54 stops in five divisions over three manuals and a pedal board, plus a horizontal trumpet in the Spanish style, totaling roughly 4,000 pipes. Recently, a zimbelstern, or “bell star,” was added to the instrument. This organ, an icon of its time, has served the congregation for over fifty years.
