If you happen to be in #London today and have a bit of time on your hands, go to London Bridge station and hear my friends and colleagues of the "Society of Women Organists" play on the Henry Jones #PipeOrgan there.
13 hours of #OrganMusic 🙂
I'm sure there will be works by #WomenComposers, too. @womeninmusic @womencomposers
Idea, while procrastinating on cleaning out the lab vault sump pump. Take a pipe 8' long, instead of a closed end drive a piston in a sinewave at 1/2 frequency. so a 16' pipe in 8+epsilon feet? Can you do the same with a vibrating string? Probably is it worth it? probably not. Back to the sump pump. #Organ#PipeOrgan#SymSat#Piano@analgesicsleep
How about some #pipeorgan music?
Here's a recording I made this afternoon - sight-reading a prelude and fugue by German composer Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow (1663-1712), played on the 1858 Keller organ.
Comments on sound quality welcome. I'm still experimenting with my small audio recorder.
The Kelvingrove Pipe Organ. Originally commissioned for the 1901 Glasgow International Exhibition, it was later moved to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. It has 2889 organ pipes, but the ones you can see are just part of a decorative facade. The actual sound-producing pipes are hidden behind it.
