Really a Great job!
The organ's voice is wonderful and poignant in these meditative pieces you played.
BRAVO!

Thank you so much J.  Unruh for sharing such a beautiful hymn!  Really enjoy your music! And after the first minute when the new registration started - That’s incredible! I couldn’t first believe that it’s Organteq 2!
I genuinely express my admiration, amazement. Wonderful registration. Which stops are combined here? After I have been making many different sounds so far, this was something new. Congratulation! Well done.

Best wishes,

Stig

Hello Stig,
thank you very much for your nice comment. I have tried to find a very romantic sound for this recording. The sound should also match the lyrics. I have chosen the following organ stops:

Prelude:
SW: Bourdon 8
RP: Flute traversiere 8, Nasard 2 2/3, Tremulant, Expression Pedal
Ped: Bourdon 16
Coupler: SW/Ped

Choral:
SW1: Bourdon 8, Voix celeste 8, Gambe 8, Tremulant, Expression Pedal
SW2: Bourdon 8 (I have dedoubled SW!)
Ped: Bourdon 16
Coupler: SW2/Ped

Best regards
