With many of my own improvised pieces, that have an unconventional style, I probably break down some barriers and maybe some listener get excited, I mean, very happy
One that give me inspiration, on Youtube, is Mons Leidvin Takle (born 1942) based near Kristiansand in Norway. A church musician, also a well-travelled concert organist and prolific composer of vocal, instrumental and widely performed organ compositions. I like his organ improvisations much.

I tried to get it magically registrated and Organteq make the piece exquisite. I think it is almost hypnotic.

Cradle Song - Harvey Grace (1874–1944) was an English organist and music writer. Piece is dedicated to ”Molly”.
The piece has a slow swing, from the opening solo melody, right up until the final chord. In the middle section, birdsong is heard, it is essential, and stands out in a unique way. In my opinion Grace’s Cradle Song is just exquisite with Organteq. Enjoy!Restful...and a perfect use of Organteq! Well done.
Many thanks. Very kind. And as I use to say in Covid-time: The more joy we can spread in these difficult days the better

To me, one of the most beautiful pieces by Bach. And wonderful magic Organteq registration. Thank you, Roman!

Peer Gynt, Op. 23, is the incidental music to Henrik Ibsen's 1867 five-act play of the same name, written by the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg in 1875. Grieg later created two suites from his Peer Gynt music.
When I hear Grieg's music, I always remember my week-end trips with the schoolchildren and parents to Norway (about 10 times, from Finland through Sweden to Norway, bus). Grieg’s music is written so close in relation with this magnificent nature. Endless kilometers of nature. The landscape is mysterious. After those trips we always listened to Grieg’s music and made ”paintings”…..listening to Grieg's music.
(and what good contact we got with childrens parents those years)

https://forum.modartt.com/uploads.php?f...mir%20.mp3This is simply wonderful. Didn’t know Organteq sounds so amazing.
Thank you so much, Fleer! This sums it all up - Organteq is Roman’s fascinating masterwork!

]]>An Aria - BWV 508 - from the 1725 Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach which was prepared, gift editing, and published by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750). Could be a gift from J. S. Bach to his wife to celebrate a very special occasion, possibly, either her 24th birthday on September 22nd, 1725, or their wedding anniversary on December 3rd.
The Aria is based on a melody composed by Gottfried Heinrich Stoelzel (1690 - 1749) . The Aria opens with the phrase - "Bist Du Bei Mir”, translated "Be Thou With Me”. ”Bach’s gift music book to Anna Magdalena is a simple song of gratitude, trust, faith in God and faith in his second wife”.
After his first wife died, Johann Sebastian Bach then married Anna Magdalena Wilcken, herself a gifted soprano and daughter of the court trumpeter of Prince Saxe-Weissenfels. They had 13 children, of whom Johann Christoph Friedrich and Johann Christian became significant musicians.
]]>A one minute composition, Fanfare, as a tribute to the New Year 2021 (hopefully a year with a more normal life).
In the short intro, my music describe the troublesome disease Covid, and then comes the relief when the disease is gone. The last chord is the victory. Of course one can experience the music in different ways. Anyway, it’s my New Year fanfare composition for 2021.
Organteq + my own variation and arrangement for Ptq, with a 4-layer sound.
I thought I can try to make same piece with both Orgtq and Ptq one after the other. Because the piece is an organ transcription with pedal, I made my own arrangement and variation on his theme.
To get a bit of the feeling of the sexteenth century, playing with Organteq, I mixed up Recit Drawknob #6 CV (cornet) with 10 other stops.
Strangely enough, I still invent new sounds (registrations) all the time Still love experimenting with registration, never get bored
Hope you like it.
