First Baptist Church First Baptist Ch First Baptist Church New Orleans, Louisiana Our firm worked diligently with the church architect and other professionals to engineer a successful installation of this organ while balancing other needs within the sanctuary inclusive of acoustics, site lines, placement, etc. The organ actions and mechanisms have been completely rebuilt. This includes but is not limited to the windchest, winding system, blower, wiring, tremelos, expression motors. The organ's DC circuits were rewired to conform to the National Electric Code. The solo division has been placed on its own wind supply to provide sufficient volumetric capacity of air at the correct wind pressure for this division.

  • PIERRE COCHEREAU: a LEGACY of IMPROVISATION at NOTRE DAME DE PARIS By
    PIERRE COCHEREAU: A LEGACY OF IMPROVISATION AT NOTRE DAME DE PARIS By ©2019 Matt Gender Submitted to the graduate degree program in 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. ______________________________ Chairperson: Michael Bauer ______________________________ James Higdon ______________________________ Colin Roust ______________________________ David Alan Street ______________________________ Martin Bergee Date Defended: 05/15/19 The Dissertation Committee for Matt Gender certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PIERRE COCHEREAU: A LEGACY OF IMPROVISATION AT NOTRE DAME DE PARIS _____________________________ Chairperson: Michael Bauer Date Approved: 05/15/19 ii ABSTRACT Pierre Cochereau (1924–84) was the organist of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris and an improviser of organ music in both concert and liturgical settings. He transformed the already established practices of improvising in the church into a modern artform. He was influenced by the teachers with whom he studied, including Marcel Dupré, Maurice Duruflé, and André Fleury. The legacy of modern organ improvisation that he established at Notre Dame in Paris, his synthesis of influences from significant figures in the French organ world, and his development of a personal and highly distinctive style make Cochereau’s recorded improvisations musically significant and worthy of transcription. The transcription of Cochereau’s recorded improvisations is a task that is seldom undertaken by organists or scholars. Thus, the published improvisations that have been transcribed are musically significant in their own way because of their relative scarcity in print and in concert performances. This project seeks to add to this published collection, giving organists another glimpse into the vast career of this colorful organist and composer.

  • EN CHAMADE U the Newsletter of the Winchester American Guild of Organists
    u EN CHAMADE u The Newsletter of the Winchester American Guild of Organists Daniel Hannemann, editor [email protected] Our website: http://www.agohq.org/chapters/winchester June ~ July ~ August 2016 From the Dean - - - The recital series proposed by the board for the Lutheran retirement community at Orchard Ridge was enthusiastically accepted by administrators at Orchard Ridge. Judy Connelly, Daniel Hannemann, & Steven Cooksey met with officials from the village in late March. Below are excerpts from the minutes taken by the Director of Activities at Orchard Ridge. Hopefully, they provide a clear picture of our series. Examination of the instrument has shown it to be first rate and quite versatile. Guild members are encouraged to come and practice on it, provided the room is free (it is best to call ahead). A receptionist has a list of our members and will direct you to the chapel. Steven Cooksey, in consultation with several of the members, has arranged for the first seven concerts. Each will be shared by two or more musicians, with occasional orchestral instruments or piano. If you are willing/interested in playing on future programs, but are not scheduled for any of the first seven, please contact Dr. Cooksey. We are interested in having a large number of our members perform. - Minutes from WAGO/Orchard Ridge Meeting - Concerts are scheduled for the second Monday monthly beginning with Monday, June 13; concerts will begin at 7 p.m. • Concerts are scheduled through December 2016, with a review to determine continued coordination for additional months/second part in 2017. • Concerts will be theme-based with either a single performer or multiple performers.

  • Organ Registration: the Organist’S Palette—An Orchestra at Your Fingertips by Dr
    Organ Registration: The Organist’s Palette—An Orchestra at Your Fingertips By Dr. Bradley Hunter Welch I. Basic Review of Organ Tone (see www.organstops.org for reference) A. Two types of tone—flue & reed 1. Flue a. Principals (“Principal, Diapason, Montre, Octave, Super Octave, Fifteenth”) & Mixtures b. Flutes (any name containing “flute” or “flöte” or “flauto” as well as “Bourdon, Gedeckt, Nachthorn, Quintaton”) c. Strings (“Viole de Gambe, Viole Celeste, Voix Celeste, Violone, Gamba”) 2. Reed (“Trompette, Hautbois [Oboe], Clarion, Fagotto [Basson], Bombarde, Posaune [Trombone], English Horn, Krummhorn, Clarinet”, etc.) a. Conical reeds i. “Chorus” reeds—Trompette, Bombarde, Clarion, Hautbois ii. Orchestral, “imitative” reeds—English Horn, French Horn b. Cylindrical reeds (very prominent even-numbered overtones) i. Baroque, “color” reeds— Cromorne, Dulzian, some ex. of Schalmei (can also be conical) ii. Orchestral, “imitative” reeds—Clarinet (or Cor di Bassetto or Basset Horn) Listen to pipes in the bottom range and try to hear harmonic development. Begin by hearing the prominent 2nd overtone of the Cromorne 8' (overtone at 2 2/3' pitch); then hear 4th overtone (at 1 3/5'). B. Pitch name on stop indicates “speaking” length of the pipe played by low C on that rank II. Scaling A. Differences in scale among families of organ tone 1. Flutes are broadest scale (similar to “oo” or “oh” vowel) 2. Principals are in the middle—narrower than flutes (similar to “ah” vowel) 3. Strings are narrowest scale (similar to “ee” vowel) B. Differences in scale according to era of organ construction 1. In general, organs built in early 20th century (1920s-1940s): principals and flutes are broad in scale (darker, fuller sound), and strings tend to be very thin, keen.

    N A M A I G C N I I S F U I C M E N E T T I S S I P A U C Q E X . E THE ORGANS OF PEACHTREE ROAD UNITED METHODIST CHURCH PRUMC ORGANISTS SCOTT H. ATCHISON DIRECTOR OF MUSIC AND ORGANIST OLIVER BRETT ASSOCIATE ORGANIST & CHOIRMASTER LAKWAN BAIN ASSISTANT ORGANIST ROBERT COULTER CURATOR OF THE ORGANS THE ORGANS Peachtree Road is extremely fortunate to have five organs used daily for practice, teaching, accompanying, recording, and most importantly, for leading the faithful in their songs of prayer and praise during weekly worship. 1 THE GREAT ORGAN The Great Organ of PRUMC, installed by Mander Organs of London, England, is the largest mechanical action organ ever built by a British organ builder. With mechanical action, the oldest type of organ action, the motions of the player are translated to the pipes through long wooden strips made from cedar, commonly called “trackers.” This provides a direct mechanical link from each note on the keyboard to the different divisions of the organ. Organists prefer this type of action due to its extreme responsiveness and sensitivity to the touch of the player. The Chancel instrument is divided among twin 40-foot cases towering over the High Altar and Chancel. The three primary manual divisions (Great, Swell & Choir), played by the organist’s hands, are located in the left-hand case, facing the altar. The Pedal division, complete with two full-length 32-foot stops, is in the right-hand case and controlled by the organist’s feet.

  • THE AEOLIAN SKINNER ORGAN History of the Organ
    THE AEOLIAN SKINNER ORGAN History of the Organ The first organ in Saint Paul’s present building was designed by Charles Courboin, organist of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, and built by the E.M. Skinner Organ Company of Boston. The instrument, three manuals with 43 ranks, was situated in the space behind the reredos and in an attic chamber high above the nave, with sounds coming through openings in the wooden ceiling of the church. It was a superb example of the Romantic orchestral organ, possessing a warm sound, rich in color. It was at its best in transcriptions of music writ- ten for orchestra and organ music of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. However, like most organs of the period, it lacked the clarity necessary for the performance of Bach, and the intensity implied in the great French school of organ composition. In the early 1950’s, Saint Paul’s Vestry began to address the deteriorating mechanical condition of the Skinner organ and its musical limitations. A contract was signed in 1953 with the Aeolian-Skinner Organ Company of Boston to re- build the instrument as part of the church’s centennial cele- bration. G. Donald Harrison, president and tonal director of the firm, worked with Thomas Dunn, organist at Saint Paul’s, in developing a completely new instrument of “American Classic” design. The “American Classic” concept, Harrison’s own creation, was eclectic. It combines the best elements of several traditions: the seventeenth-century German organ, the nineteenth-century French symphonic organ and the English cathedral or- gan for which so much Anglican church music is written.

  • Organ Registration
    Organ Registration By Dr. Ina Grapenthin As a clinician, I'm often asked by beginning organists for suggestions on how to use registration. This is a complex subject to address, because the “right” selection of stops for any given composition depends upon two things: the first is the type of sounds appropriate for that particular composition; the second is the organist's understanding of how the instrument works to create these sounds. Much of the terminology used in registration is confusing until you understand that it refers to the way sounds are produced on a pipe organ. This terminology is always the same, whether you are playing a pipe or an electronic instrument. A good example is the way we express the pitch of the stops. Pitch Levels The pitch level of a particular stop is indicated by a number which refers to the physical length of the longest pipe (lowest note) in the rank of pipes controlled by that stop. ( A “rank” is a row of pipes that is voiced as a unit.) A stop marked 8', for example, controls a rank of pipes the longest of which is eight feet long. An 8' stop always speaks at a “concert” or “piano” pitch. A 4' stop sounds an octave higher, a 2' stop, two octaves higher, and a 1' stop three octaves higher, Conversely, a 16' stop sounds an octave lower, and so forth. Mutations Stops that are indicated by numbers that include fractions (2 2/3', 1 3/5', 1 1/3') are know as mutations. When you use a mutation stop, you are not hearing octaves.

  • The Organ Works of César Franck, and the Complete Organ Works of Olivier Messiaen
    Church of Saint Ann City of Washington 150th Parish Anniversary Year Beauty, In all its material and practical expressions exits to draw humanity into the redeeming beauty of God. Churches do not hold organ recitals, arts festivals, and concerts simply because these are nice, inspiring pursuits. Commitment to the beautiful is intrinsic to the Church’s life for the reason that the Church’s vision s the eternally beautiful city. This commitment, it may be argued, is especially incumbent upon large urban churches. The Church today can play a role in bringing the arts back from alienation from the transcendent - an alienation that has led the arts themselves into severe disorientation and crisis. Church art programs can elevate and ennoble what beauty exits in the human city and among its artists and poets. Msgr. M.
