• 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.

Here's a couple questions about another organ in Poland. Mat, you might be able to help with this one, too.

I've watched a few clips, on youtube, of the organ at Swieta Lipka. I enjoy the moving statues, especially the moving cluster of tiny bells on the short central tower. Very cute!

But the organ sounds really good, too. Is there a stoplist out there for this one as well? Any CDs done on this organ?

Thank you.

About CDs. Go to this (Polish) site: http://www.musiccorner.pl/pp.php?p=81912. There are also some CDs available in a gift shop in the city of Święta Lipka - http://www.jezuici.pl/swlipka/page_pl/pam_pl.htm. Yes, I know. That won't help you.
Couldn't find anything better, but there must be some other recordings of this organ.

Yes sir, there she is! That's the organ. A very rich 2-manual tonal design.

I think I might be able to order a CD from the gift shop. I work with a woman who was born and raised in Poland, so she could help with the language. We have a large Polish community here in the Philadelphia area.

I noticed a video, which would be a good thing to have, as well, since the moving statues are a major part of the entertainment.

You've been a big help, mat. Thanks.
