Bach/Vivaldi 3/3 

It's called claviorganum

Another interesting instrument is pedal- harpsichord. J.S. Bach constructed also instrument called lautenwerk: gut - stringed instrument sounding similarly to lute.

@@wamix58Actually his Friend and Organ Builder Zaharias Hildebrandt built the two Lautenwerke (lute harpsichord).

I tried both, lautenwerk and pedal harpsichord, beautiful instruments!

Claviorgani are documented in the inventories of the instruments available to the "oratorians" of S. Filippo Neri, in Rome, at the end of the 16th century

So rich in detail, and every detail bursting with beauty!

💯 agreed

Просто Бах - гений, величайший композитор

@OxideManganese agreed! But in this case, Vivaldi writes the music:)

@@organiste Thank you.

Merci pour votre message. Je suis moi même surpris, ces derniers jours le nombre de vues a explosé.

@@organiste Et oui... Impénétrables ! Parfait, c'est mérité.

Merci!

Thanks! two feet too😅

@@organiste You've got a pedalboard? I realize this is one of his "organ concerti" and that there are "piano" transcriptions of it. "It is generally accepted that this Vivaldi arrangement is the work of J. S. Bach; however, it was previously attributed to both Wilhelm Friedemann Bach and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach" -- IMSLP.

@scronx I use JS Bachs transcription yes, with pedaliter.

For now, I just have pedal couplers. In a few months, the instrument will get 3 independent pedal stops !@@scronx

@@organiste In my church work I've MIDI sequenced the Vivaldi guitar concerto complete, and am methodically using up Bach's much-overlooked 16 Konzerte nach verschiedenen Meistern -- his solo clavier transcriptions of Marcello, Telemann, Ernst etc.

Merci!

Thank you so much!

It's called claviorganum

@@bendeguznemes9871 I know, but there are many different kind of claviorgans since every country has a different kind. And within that, there are many sorts. So that's what is fascinating.

I think it’s one of the three biggest in the world. I know only two with 3 man and pedals and my instrument is one of them. The disposition is not very authentic, I conceived this instrument in a practical way. It’s supposed to be moved very often and possible to play all the organ repertoire from the renaissance to Mendelssohn. In the disposition, it was important for me to have 2 man on the organ, an open principal 8 and a 16’ reed. The dimensions had to be small. The organ with 5 1/2 stops is in fact just 63 cm deep! The only compromise is the electrical transmission to the pedal.

Many thanks!

Merci! En fait cet assemblage bien que très peu courant de nos jours est déjà mentionné par Prætorius. Dom Bedos le décrit également dans son traité L’Art du Facteur d’Orgues.

Welcome to Norway!

Each day with my instrument is a dream:)

surely it's a blessing from God @@organiste

Merci, à Stavanger, en Norvège, mais je viens régulièrement en France. Où habitez vous?

Thanks. The harpsichord give a more orchestral dimension. The principal 8 form the organ is also coupled. The flute 4’ as solo is like a recorder and in a historical perspective not so bad as solo. There’s a lot of possibilities with this instrument. Certainly other ways to do this, but at this moment I think it is the best solution.

No time to waste, just buy one! You will never regret it!

The best one:)

You are welcome in Norway:) The price is confidential, but you can ask the organ builder:)

Merci pour votre commentaire! L’idée était de mettre un peu de brillance à la fin en ajoutant le 2’ La quinte n’étant qu’un dessus, elle disparaît pour les dernières mesures. J’aurais probablement pu gérer le flux un peu mieux.

@@organiste Content que vous ne l'ayez pas mal pris, ce commentaire est sorti tout seul, entre l'enthousiasme de découvrir votre interprétation et la petite déception à la fin. Bonne suite de découvertes !

@jipespi6507 dans cette profession, il faut savoir rester humble et accepter les retours. Après on peut être d’accord ou pas, pour le coup je suis assez d’accord avec vous:) Ces vidéos ont été enregistrées à l’arrache peut de temps après réception de l’instrument. Je m’étais lancé dans un calendrier de l’avent, avec un nouvel enregistrement par jour. Tout n’est pas parfait, mais le but était de partager mon instrument avec le plus de monde possible :)

Thanks. I like the position of the mics. Very close result as you will listen if you are in a concert. The mics are about 3 meters away from the instrument.

60’ for the organ. 10’ for the 8’8’ of the harpsichord. In fact it’s really easy to tune the harpsichord with the principal of the organ.

Hi! What Are you meaning? Price?

@@organiste such musical instruments 2 in 1, harpsichord and organ, pianoforte and organ, are not produced in my country

Where are you living ? Claviorganum are not very common in any place... This instrument is specially built to me. The price is the same as a chest organ + harpsichord + little bit more for the mechanical connection between the two instruments.

@@organiste thanks for the answer. In Sanct-Petersburg Russia pianoforte very very high price. And good guitar little price. sorry my bad inglish

I’m very happy with this instruments and I know how lucky I am to own such instruments. I get a very good price for both of them. I return, I used them as often as possible. My students are also playing on them regularly. Best regards, Ghislain

Yes, a claviorganum

It’s my baby:) a claviorganum!

And did you like it? Although uncommon these days, the claviorganum is not new. Handel had one, Monteverdi played one...

​@@organiste. very very beautiful . . . . ♡

Thank you so much🙏🏻
