Hi

In response to a discussion on a Facebook group, I've dug out some recordings I made on a Gregorian reed organ about 15 years ago. This instrument has 2 manuals & pedals, and uses resonating tubes to modify the sound of the reeds. Sorry, no pictures, just audio on this You Tube presentation.

Hello Tony, I had a reed organ, it was only one keyboard and in an awful state when I got it. Took out all the reeds, cleaned the reed holders then re-waxed them. Then got the bellows working, (pedal thing) let the spiders out into the yard and eventually, after playing it for a while, I gave it to a congregation of a free church. They were very pleased.
Loved the music, the sounds and the harmony. Strange as it may seem, I have tried to get my Tyros to make that sort of sound. It is the old fashion traveling Gospel sound. Thanks for posting. Regards, Den.
