Too bad a so important job like the Toccata in F is "cutted" by the pedal extension limitations of this modern (1999) instrument. Better to play it on the Hinsz organ.
Sorry! the pedal extension limitations of this modern (1999) instrument are the same as on the Hinsz organ. So what?? Our choice was based on early baroque organ. Bach would be very happy with this organ, we think! Romantic music can be better played on other instruments. Not on this one for is has a Kellner tuning. Romantic music does not like that. And we find this not at all a problem at all for we made choices!

The whole concert by Gerben Budding was on the Reil choir organ!😂

The Hinsz organ has the same pedal compass. JT Krebs made a version for 27-note "D compass" pedalboards in 1714. So there's a historical precedent.
