Excellent video of a fine instrument. There are a number of fine Spanish organs in good condition these days. Great to see the unusual features of this organ which are typical of the 18th century Iberian organ. The two 18th century organs at Segovia Cathedral (built by the Echevarría family) are particularly outstanding and worth visiting, as are the "Emperador" and Verdalonga organs at Toledo Cathedral.
A fascinating comprehensive demonstration, showing how vastly different were national preferences of the time as this organ is an exact contemporary of the Muller organ of St Bavo and similar works of Batz and Hinz of the Netherlands.
Just love the sound of Italian and Spanish baroque organs! I wish someone would do a Hauptwerk sample set of this beautiful organ 😊 Thank you for such a great video of this organ!
The Mallorcan organ builder Jordi Bosch, who also built this instrument, is considered by organologists to be the inventor of horizontal trumpet stops, among other things.
Gracias Balint por este nuevo vídeo en el precioso órgano de Santoyo. Es verdad que en España hay algunos instrumentos históricos en buen estado, pero aún los hay más en estado de olvido y abandono. Testimonios como éste ayudan a crear conciencia de este importante patrimonio, lo que merece un enorme agradecimiento en nombre de los que amamos el órgano. Espero que también pudieras hacer una demo en Támara y que puedas volver pronto a España.
What a magnificent organ, those reeds give the sound such a majestic appearance, also pretty loud. How was it sitting with your head right under these trumpets?
Bass-driven harmony started to emerge in Spain and Italy significantly later than in Germany or the Netherlands partly because of the lack of 16’ organ pipes
Imagine building an instrument, which almost 300 years later, gives people (like me) chills !

9:59 "It's just so cool!"
It really is! Nice job!!!

Now there is an instrument full of clear sound. I love it
The voicing of this organ is breathtakingly impressive!
That is the most beautiful organ I have ever seen or heard. What a wonderful warm rich tone, and the reeds are astounding!
What’s wonderful about these reeds is their tone and clarity!
What an amazing sound for a single Keyboard instrument. The Pedal slides in sound is like a waveform enhancer found on some synthesizers.
Yeah. What an incredible feature to find in a mechanical instrument, from nearly three hundred years ago...!
What a beautiful demonstration of an instrument lacking pedals. The voice is truly amazing.
Couldn't agree more!
Crikey! Those Spanish reeds are quite something.
Is there a historical reason why Spanish organ builders were so into these really intense trumpets?

Bravo. Bravissimo. Magníficos órganos históricos en España. 👏👏👏👏👏
Is the batalla improvized or no ?
Loved the demo, I hope you can come to Portugal one day to try the organ in the church of São vicente de Fora

I almost got to try Támara, but the church was closed on Mondays and they wouldn’t open it.
Gracias Balint. Triste y lamentable. Cosas que pasan en España y que no deberían pasar.😞 @@bkarosi
Having seen organs throughout spain, it is nice to finally hear one in use. Thanks for the treat
Afortunadamente se han reconstruído muchos y suele haber conciertos en muchas iglesias.
Wow! Pedal sliders is so interesting solution! I never seen it before
This is a tremendous demonstration, Balint. Thank you.
Beautiful church and organ! Interesting video too.
No where in the earth emanates such a sound.
well THAT got my attention!
What a magnificent organ, those reeds give the sound such a majestic appearance, also pretty loud.
How was it sitting with your head right under these trumpets?
Lovely! 💜
Brilliant to hear this organ, and in your hands!
Bravissimo mister Balint.😊🙂
Batalla de clarines improvisada ,preciosa❤❤
Bellissimo strumento nel paese dove si è sviluppato l'organo a canne.
that sound just gives me chills down my spine :D
when the reeds are activated :D
Very Welcome to Spain, Máster!
Gyönyörű!
I enjoy very much the didactical way you show the organ stops, Balint. May I know who was/were your organ master(s)?
I have studied with Lionel Rogg, James David Christie and János Pálúr
You gotta love those trumpets, man.
Thankyou for this. ❤
it takes a genious to play this organ. OMG such sound.
Excellent video, next time I hope you are able to demonstrate the levers and pedals, which add so much character to the Spanish organs!
Thanks for making this video
I wonder, since there are no pedals or other strong bass voices, did the Spanish bring in other instruments to support the basses?
Bass-driven harmony started to emerge in Spain and Italy significantly later than in Germany or the Netherlands partly because of the lack of 16’ organ pipes
Do you know what temperament this organ has? It sounds very “mild”, yet the major thirds still ring nicely. Maybe a circulating temperament?
Yes, Vallotti
Can anyone explain what does number 13 in Flautado 13 (and many spanish stops) refer to?
I think that "13" represents an 8' stop. Unit of measurement ?
"13 Palmos" or 13 Palms, = 8 foot stop "26 Palmos" = 16 foot stop etc. "Lleno," or "Full", simply means mixture.
@@hismajestysmen Thank you. I appreciate the explanation.
It was not as loud as some modern organs’ chamades
indeed, but there is a "clang" to the old ones. Kind-of like the Chicago Symphony brass of the 60s-80s
my very soul struggles to stay together when i hear it
❤❤
It looks like there's only a single manual and no pedals. Is that typical for Spanish organs?
Yes, just like Italian organs but with lots of horizontal reeds
Does anybody know good recordings of this organ or another spanish organ from around that time? And which composers composed for these instruments?
You should listen to Juan Cabanilla's music
🎹🎼🎵🎶
Különleges.
God help me.
Лучше бы на испанском!!
Love the way Spanish reeds SNARL 😄
