 ;) Having seen the Youtube video you posted the link to... You aren't the only one with "crossed fingers"...  I wonder what she could do with a "real" organ 8) 8) 8)

The TV exposure certainly couldn't have hurt her career ;) ;D 8) 8)  One can hope this is a rising tide which "floats all boats"...

Hi!

Sorry to disillusion you.

Since moving to the new server and installing stats -

June 1          25.14%    712    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
June 2          21.96%    622    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
June 3          19.81%    561    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
June 4          11.94%    338    XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
June 5          12.08%    342    XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

We've got a long way to go before appreciation of the King of Instruments goes mainstream . . .

Best wishes

Two things to apologise for - having picked this thread up a bit late, and being totally in the dark about some of the things you mentioned.  So can you elaborate on what the Barn is (is it a concert hall with an organ?), and what's the URL of your website? Also, is there any connection with your Compton console you have shown elsewhere on the forum?  It all sounds interesting.

Cheers

I wish there was a button to register "like" to register approval as there is on facebook . . .

There are many beginnings of interesting subjects on the forum which are well worthy of further exploration!

And this from the BBC online....

Here is the intro text ;)

Quote23 December 2011 Last updated at 18:41 ET

"Tis the season to be jolly" - and many churches around the US are echoing to the sound of organ music and Christmas carols.

But the traditional pipe organ that has been at the heart of liturgy for centuries is under threat.

Production of new instruments is slow, many churches cannot afford to maintain their older organs and electronic music is also becoming more popular as churches seek to modernise.

But, as Jane O'Brien reports, the era of the mighty pipe organ is not over yet.

John Bishop, founder of the Organ Clearinghouse features prominently...
Merry Christmas ;D
