Hi, Gang.
The Bone Doctor here, congratulating Lee Christopherson for doing
such a wonderful job making music on his giant 5-manual Hauptwerk
organ!
I finally got time to check his site out and it is impressive. Here
is the link that will take you back in time to when the pipe organ
was majestic and huge:

No it is not TPO. It is classical. And it is truly awesome. The
voices sound so real it is scary. This is the stuff that would lay
the foundation for the Unit Orchestra hundreds of years later.
Lee plays with uncanny precision and the recordings are incredibly
life-like. You can hear the laguids of the Diapasons chiffing at each
note. The Pedal is a tangable woof that will stir your very soul.
There are Salicionals that travel to the stars and back again. And
the Reeds are fire filled marvels. The Flutes are sweet and detailed.
You owe it to yourselves to go out to Lee's site and give his
material a listen. If you want to hear a really BIG organ, this is it!
Lee is very generous, listing over thirty songs that open up in
Windows Media Player as MP3 files that are of fine quality.
Visit his home page to see all the good stuff for Hauptwerk artists
that he has assembled. You'll be glad you did.
