I really like this organ. Great sound!
What a stunning sound!
Elegant. Bob Sipe was an unsung hero.
Thank You for featuring the St Lucas Organ. I am a lifetime member of St Lucas and the organ is definitely a gift during worship. I believe Ryan Mueller played the organ for Milwaukee Doors Open in 2016. It was a great time. We still try and feature organists during the Doors Open event. Again Thank You for the visit.
For 8 years, I had the privilege of playing this organ for the wonderful people at St. Lucas. This organ has everything an organist really needs, in a church with great acoustics. Its sound and console combine to make this one of the friendliest organs you can play.
If I may offer a correction: the reed unit at the back of the Swell is the Bassoon/Oboe, not a trumpet. And the 16’ Posaune is more properly an extension of the 8’ Pedal Trumpet. The 16’ octave has wood resonators, while the 8’ rank is metal, which explains the color change in the middle of the Posaune’s range.
Những cây đàn Đại Phong Cầm và những bản nhạc cổ điển, quá tuyệt vời.
Every stop on this instrument is excellent, even the tremulant is excellent. This organ is more pleasing than many larger instruments.
The best audio I have heard in a long time!
Very nice small organ that is very well voiced.
WOW! I THOUGHT that was Ryan Mueller just from his voice and manerisms but the beard threw me off! yeah, congrats to Ryan, we worked together at Dobson, he's a fantastic individual and organ tech/builder, I was sorry to see him move away.
It was really nice to hear different combinations of ranks! Well done by everyone and it's quite the instrument.
I like that the guy on the keyboard is playing music, not just playing cords like some do in these demo's
Beautiful video. Thanks for sharing.
Nice demonstration!
I like what I hear on this organ so far!
When I visited Salt Lake years ago Richard ELliot showed the Sipe organ to me, and there was an 8' Regal stop that really surprised me, he opened the front case doors and showed the Regal pipes to me, they were really odd looking affairs!
Nicely done and well-presented video. From what I understand, the Sipe featured here is wonderful for North German organ works. St. Lucas is a wonderful space. Also, another Sipe in the city is at Ss. Peter and Paul Parish on the East Side. That instrument was installed in 1998 to replace the Wicks instrument of 1952, which was falling apart. The original organ at Ss. Peter and Paul was also a Scheulke from 1891. My guess on the case with that organ was that it looks closer to this one and Old St. Mary, which is located in Downtown Milwaukee, which also had a Scheulke from 1893. Old St. Mary had a fire in 1892, and that was when the Scheulke organ was installed. It was rebuilt by American Organ Supply in 1948 and revoiced by Wicks sometime in the late 1990's. Getting back to Ss. Peter and Paul, the original Scheulke console would have looked close to that of St. Francis. Ryan and Andrew, excellent presentation and very informative. Would love to hear more about the Old St. Mary and Ss. Peter and Paul Scheulke.
It's always fun to hear and see another good pipe organ. In this video I especially like that the playing excerpts seemed longer and more varied than in most of your videos. To me it gave a better idea of what the stops and the combinations of stops sounded like. Great video. Maybe you can make it to southern California some time in the near future. There are many fine organs out here several of which are in my home town of Pasadena.
...surprised to stumble across this while I was looking for information on the old Avalon CInema organ
St Lucas was our family's church My mum and one of my uncles was married there, my brothers and i confirmed there, and the funerals for my grandmother and mum were held there.
I remember being in the school choir in the 1960s when the choir seating was at the front of case's base. Sitting in the back row against the case I could feel it vibrate from the pedal pipes. As I remember he original console had two rows of stop tabs instead of the rocker switch stops.
Interesting to see that the interior of the church has changed little from when we used to attend services there decades ago The two paintings on each side of the altar area are as I remember them though the back wall behind the altar was a light blue instead of cream coloured I still remember German language services being held a couple times a month. The biggest change was the cleaning of the exterior which was made of the famous Cream Brick from which Milwaukee got it's nickname the "Cream City". When I was still living in MIlwaukee the church (like most buildings in the city) was coated in grey soot which gave it an almost foreboding appearance. Seeing images of what the exterior looks like now it now are remarkable.
Every holiday season there was the big Christmas eve service where the entire school participated with each class reciting a portion of the nativity story. IS still remember the tall tree that nearly reached to the ceiling which was brought and decorated every year.
As to the school I notice it is an entirely new building from the 1960s one I attended. he first year I was there classes were held in the church basement while the previous building was being constructed. As St. Lucas school didn't have it's own playground, we shared the one with the former Dover Street School across the street.
I also remember hte four bowling lanes in the school basement (not sure they are there any more) where the church's league. practised and held matches (on a number of occasions a couple students including myself were called to perform pinsetting duties after school).
Nice demo Love the swell strings Upperwork is a bit bright for my taste but very "Lutheran". Cornet effective.
8' pedal principal excellent
Install is super clean
Overall good work!
Amazing video! Does anyone know what hymn is used to demonstrate the 16' Bassoon at 12:41? It's lovely
Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Milwaukee also has another Sipe organ at St. Peter and Paul Catholic church. That organ was apparently built in 1999.
👍....not far from home!
Was the case built by Schuelke, or Breilmier?
Các nhà thờ ở Việt Nam 🇻🇳 , hầu như không có loại nhạc cụ này ,vì kết cấu phức tạp, chiếm nhiều không gian, vì đa số nhà thờ nhỏ , chỉ có loại đàn nhỏ như ( electone , Roland AT, technic GA vvv..)🤷♂️ âm thanh của các loại đàn này ko thể sánh với các loại pipe organ được. 🎹
Cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ video, chúc bạn và gia đình thật nhiều sức khỏe , bình an 🙏
I would have much rather had the Schulke or Wangerin. The present organ sounds like something from the 1980's........Sipe is stuck back in the neo Baroque era. An 8' Principal added on the swell and several days with a nicking tool would improve the instrument.
I really like the string and string celeste. The celeste is not so wildly out of tune with the normally pitched rank, as is the case with too many string celestes. At a certain point, this becomes irritating and unmusical. This particularly bad with Continental European organs. Very nice Principal chorus in the Great.
