What a gem of a post! This brought back so many memories of me as a fourteen year old being asked to play organ for Sunday-School years ago. The only instruction I remember receiving from the ward (parish) organist was to “glide your fingers like an octopus over the keys to obtain a legato or sustained sound. Haha! What a shame I didn’t have Tim Topham on UA-cam way back then! I had to rely on a lot of hard practice each week. And a lot of prayer to calm my trembling hands on Sunday morning! I substituted recently for our regular organist too! Thanks for sharing, as always, Tim! 🥰🎶
Hahaha love the octopus reference!
Thank you,thank you! Yes, I'm a piano player, and my new church had an electric organ, and assumed I could play it,lol so I'm very excited to have found your site!
Awesome shawna. Have fun with it!!
First look at organ playing, this is AMAZING and very realistic and practical. Thanks so much!!
Thanks, Tim! Great, great, great video!
Exactly the type of video I was looking for! Thank you so much 😁
Glad it was helpful!
Me too!
This is a great into, thanks mate
No problem 👍
Thank you Tim this is great! I know Melbourne offers lots of magnificent churches and musical infrastructures and I’m glad too see someone showing us around the operation.
I know right!? Melbourne has fabulous organs. Wish I could play more of them.
I was asked to play keyboard for a funeral. It turned out to be an electronic organ. I had no idea how to play an organ. I couldn’t change the volume, and had to nod to the minister so he could let the mourners know when to stand for the hymns, and when they finished! When the family tried to pay me, I felt so bad that I refused! Needless to say, I now ensure that a keyboard means a piano keyboard before I agree to play.
It’s so common that we’re just thrown in and expected to make it work, right? Thanks for sharing your story 👍
