Performed on the Elizabeth and David Koop Memorial Organ-a four-manual digital AEolian-Skinner organ built by the Walker Technical Company of Zionsville, Pennsylvania.
Elegant and dramatic!!! Wish I could have been there!!
Music that stirs the soul. Great installation! Made me day hearing this!
This was beautiful
Thank you for not playing this hymn too fast!
Amen - "True to our God, True To Our Native Land."
I think the sound is magnificent. Good work. I like some of the gospel “licks” you added. Stylistically appropriate and exciting playing. Good tempo.
Thank you for this beautiful interpretation
Very beautiful pipe organ magnificently played
Awesome playing and an awesome organ!!
I loved it! I sure miss playing.
That full choir just gets me. God bless us all.
Beautifully played
Please keep in mind that this instrument is unknown to many outside of Philadelphia and that it would be nice to at the very least identify the instrument and possibly put the specification of it in the description but again, at the very least identify the builder. Thanks, well played indeed!
Judging from the monster console & suspicious-looking grill clothes on the sides, I would guess that it's a hybrid,
mostly digital, but with some ranks from a previous pipe organ. I think the smaller plaque says Aeolian-Skinner, "digitally remastered".
It sounds very electronic to me, and I think the console was built by Colby.

You secretly know something about this instrument! Last night (4.14) I spoke to a friend who happens to be the Philadelphia AGO Dean to request a stoplist since the organ isn't even mentioned on the church website and low and behold much to my great surprise, I've been fooled! This organ isn't a hybrid, it's 100% a full digital Walker Technical Organ and yes, that's a Colby console. Bravo to Bob Walker and company! The stoplist is impressive. Walker Technical is the finest digital organ in the world and definitely in this country. This is a must play for me.
@@bhigdaddymark I was only guessing,
but I WAS right about the sound!
I find it incredibly tacky that they have an Aeolian-Skinner plaque on the console, when nothing from that venerable company is still there.
It IS a nice console though, other than that.

My eyes wouldn't allow me to read the name plate. Walker owns the Aeolian-Skinner name and their organs are largely Ernest M. Skinner and Aeolian-Skinner sampled and the Aeolian-Skinner samples are probably 80%-90% samples of G. Donald Harrison era organs from 1946-1956 hence their sounding so good and eons ahead of their competition. They're the best option when the church doesn't have the space, funds or maintenance funds for a pipe organ despite whatever the "purists" think and say. If I HAD to go digital, it would be Walker.
@@bhigdaddymark Oh, okay;
I had no idea they owned the A-S name!
Fantastic! Whose arrangement is that? I'd like to get the music myself!
The arrangement is this one. musescore.com/user/30522520/scores/5685418
Are there pipes behind the minimalistic grill work to the left and right of tht console on the walls?
Most likely.
Tut mir leid. Aber aus dieser Orgel kann man ein bisschen mehr rausholen.
DEAD acoustics! Middle of the road playing...
