    A very beautiful meditation by Flor Peeters. This music again fits very well with this fantastic organ!

    It’s wonderful to see how this gentle piece fits this historical instrument so well.❤

      Thanks Vidas. In this case I liked the darker registration, with a flute and principal 8 the best. It gives the piece a nice warm character.

    This instrument and room seem somehow to adopt the needed characteristics to bring forth the loveliness of each piece. Very beautifully played.

      @@aBachwardsfellow thanks. I sometimes believe it’s almost meta-physical. This instrument doesn’t get regular “love.” So if I plan a recording session the organ really comes alive.

      ​@@RienSchalkwijk - I have to agree -- it seems to go beyond being "just" an organ. I think it likes you ... 🙂 In any case, all other things being equal, your mic placement cerrtainly captures a perfect blend of the pipes and the acoustic

    I love the chiff of the Principal in this beautiful piece.

      Thanks! Yes, I think the principal 8 is the best rank from this organ!

      Thanks! I guess that is exactly what I find attractive in the music from this composer. He plays a lot with harmonies and dissonances!

    Is dit een van de composities in je nieuwe aanwinst (stapel)? Mooi dat je de muziek van Flor gevonden hebt, zitten vele pareltjes bij.

      Dank! Maar dit is er nog één uit een oud boek dat ik 30 jaar geleden heb gered uit de kelder van een klooster. :-). Maar as we sprak is er zelfs nog meer muziek van deze componist onderweg naar mijn huis! :-)

      ​@@RienSchalkwijk can you please remind me -- are there copyrights which prevent you from sharing these pieces by Flor Peeters on IMSLP?

      @@aBachwardsfellow It’s quite simple… the composer passed away in 1986. Copyright lasts 70 years after. So it’s copyright free in 2056. In the mean time all his books are out of print, both PDF and physical. The original publishers aren’t existing any longer, they have sold the rights to buyers, to new buyers, to venture capitalists etc etc. The same is true for the American composers who bought rights for the US. There are lots of sellers listing the music on their websites. Even Amazon etc. But if you try to buy it they give an error or after paying you get a message that it isn’t available after all. So as a matter of fact you can’t buy it and you are not allowed to spread it for free. In my case I have spend around 200 euro to buy second hand books from the UK. I’m currently awaiting a delivery from Tim Knight who had some great books in his second hands collection (for a very affordable price happily). But this is exactly the reason why you get forgotten composers! And of course, being a public organist and ethics professional I can’t play from music that isn’t legal.

      ​@@RienSchalkwijk Thanks for that very clear explanation! So -- that being the case, it appears you have your work cut out for you as one of (if not the only) discover-er and performer of the plethora of organ music hidden and "forgotten" by copyright and ghosted publishers. Looking forward to hearing some of those from the Tim Knight collection.
