| | Pipe organ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Even with non-speaking pipes, the facade is considered an important part of a pipe organ, much as the scroll of a violin is considered part of that instrument. | | | In some cases, groups have sought out the sound of the pipe organ, such as Tangerine Dream, which combined the distinctive sounds of electronic synthesizers and pipe organs when it recorded both music albums and videos in several cathedrals in Europe. | | | Church-style pipe organs are very rarely used in popular music. |

| | The main organ is framed by nineteen acoustical clouds suspended above and in front of it, and by choir seating and the large rostrum beneath it. | | | Although the organ boasts a variety of classical stops, it is a decidedly Romantic organ whose sound envelops the listener. | | | The room’s shape and its spiral, which ascends to 195 feet above the floor, contribute to an extraordinary acoustic with four seconds’ reverberation, providing bloom and grandeur to the organ tone and music, and drama to the spoken word. |

| | Pipe Organ - Bulletin Insert from Modern Liturgy 2/98 |
| | The pipe organ, an acoustical instrument, uses natural products - wood, metal, leather and wind, to produce a sound which the player changes from placid to piercing, from penitent to playful. | | | Acoustical instruments in live performance create an experience that captures the presence of the musician, the instrument, the listener nd even the weather. | | | The council permitted the use of other musical instruments as well, enhancing our liturgy with guitar, piano, flute and bongo. |

| | The tuning that matters most for the organ, and also for the MIDI that hopes to sound like it, is that mutations are tuned to their just intervals. | | | As examples of what is possible, I must give special mention to Philip Goddard's beautifully crafted compositions and their MP3 recordings, and the organ music of Bach and other delightful confections of the "Lorin Swelk Orchestra". | | | If we had a simple way to accomplish meantone temperament in the MIDI world, the tierces of the Grand Cornet and the Grand Jeu would be far more resonant in most of the intervals encountered in music of the 17th and 18th Centuries. |

Pipe organs existed throughout the ancient world although they were quite different from the organs of the 16th century and later, which are the organs familiar to us today. |
