Thanks so much (AGAIN!!!) Takes me back to when I decided I wanted to be a pipe organ builder..... Even at 11 years old, I had made my decision. I'm 66 yrs old now and doing just that!
Helps being on the same trem as the Tibia. A unusual instrument that went through a number of changes in its life. A rather loud (for Wurlitzer) Tuba. The French Trumpet was an unusual Wurlitzer stop, but a number came over to the UK. More effective in building the ensemble than the brass trumpet, but I think you will understand that better than I! The copies of the original installation drawings are proudly posted up in the chamber so no one loses sight of how it is meant to be.
This Wurlitzer was originally built as 3/11 for a private residence in the USA as it's been said . But came as 12 ranks with roll player. A beautiful organ with a unique sound and highly regarded as one of the best sounding Wurlitzer organs out there?
Agree with that regarding this Wurlitzer Organ. Dear Les Rawle showed me the organ in great detail when in the church music museum in Brentford where I heard it played many times. Never heard it as yet in person in the new museum but looks amazing! Thanks, Kev.
@@BramleyProductions The organ sounds great .I believe they went to great lengths to achieve the sound that it made in the Regal with chamber layouts? I do like Chris Barber as he plays in the Joseph Seal style!
