Morning Mood (Grieg) - 1965 Allen Analog Organ

I have always enjoyed Grieg's music, and Morning Mood is no exception. A lighthearted sounding piece, it was originally produced as part of Henrik Ibsen's play 'Peer Gynt', and depicts a scene in the Moroccan Desert.
For this rendition, I used the flute stops for the opening, rolling in the Choir Viole before switching to the Great which included the softer string stops, falling back to the flutes toward the end.
I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I did recording it.
** About the organ **
This organ was installed June 15, 1965 as part of a new church building for the 2nd Baptist Church of Rochester, NY. It was a Custom build from Allen Organ in Macungie, Pennsylvania, with additional options for a Schulmerich Carillon system. It is a unit organ of seven electronic ranks, with the Great/Swell/Pedal sharing three tone generators, the Swell having a dedicated Celeste generator, and an independent Choir division of three tone generators, for a total of five audio output channels. A total of 570 oscillators generate all the sounds that are heard. A dedicated Choir Celeste generator awaits installation, which will bring the total up to 607 oscillators. The organ was dedicated in September, 1965 in a recital performed by Berj Zamkochian.
