• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

    In order to post a new topic - or reply to existing ones - you may join and become a member by clicking on Register New User.

We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

Hi people!

I've been unable to find a stoplist, anywhere, of the big Marcussen at Lund Cathedral. Could somebody give me a lead?

Thanks.

[/FONT] [FONT=&quot]Organs in the Lund Cathedral[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The big organ is built 1934 by the organ builders Marcussen & Søn, Aabenraa, Denmark. The organ has 102 stops and four manuals. About 20 stops remain from older organs.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The choir organ with 23 stops. two manuals and pedal, was built in 1977 by Poul-Gerhard Andersen, Copenhagen.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]By the same organ builder are the two positives with 4 stops each. A fifth organ is the little regal which is part of the astronomic clock.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The cathedral had an organ already in 1237. From 1626 we know the specification of the organ, which then was built, probably by the danish organ builder Johann Lorenz, and which had its place where the big stairs are now.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]ln 1836 an organ with 61 stops was built on an organ loft in the western part of the church. It was then the largest organ in Sweden and the first with a swell organ.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]ln 1 876 the organ was rebuilt. In connection with the big restauration of the church, the architect H. Zetterwall wanted to divide the organ prospect so that the light from the new windows could come into the church.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]About 1920 the organ was in a very bad condition, and after ambitious preparations, with participation of advisers like Ernst Schiess, Albert Schweitzer, Christhard Mahrenholz and the Swedish organists Otto Olsson and Oskar Lindberg, the organ was completely renewed in 1934. About 20 stops from the earlier organs were reused. The organ got 101 voices with electro-pneumatical action and with slide chests. Through the synthesis with 19th century registers and the ideas of the new organ movement with baroque models, the organ has became extraordinary well suited to music of different times and styles.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The organ builders Marcussen & Søn had rebuilt the organ in 1876 and 1934 and also got the responsibility for the restoration 1992. A new console with 256 setzer combinations is built, and through thorough reparation of all technical parts and an excellent voicing work, the organ now again sounds as beautiful as the masters wished. who worked on this magnificent instrument before.[/FONT]

Talk about getting an answer to a queston!! Sounds like a pretty substantial organ, even if I can't understand half of the stop names. But only two 32s??

Whenever I see something about a cathedral I haven't heard of, I head for Wikipedia and Flickr - mainly to see if I can find photos. Yep, I did here.

There is one question that I keep wondering about: Why do most cathedrals seem to lack permanent pews? Why all those chairs, and who has to keep them all arranged?

IT is cheaper than pews:but most important it allows you more freedom with the seating capacity of the cathedral and use of space.... as well as many have marble or stone flooring and pew installation would ruin the overall appearance of the flooring. I have been organist at 2 and the maintenance psople do most of set-up.. but also have been choirboys, priest, even me at times helping out for some .
