Back & forth with the Robert Huw Morgan performance
[edit]The video showing Robert Huw Morgan performing BWV 542 on the Stanford Memorial Church's Fisk-Nanney organ has been removed several times (by various IP users) - many times with out reason given, but most recently with the reason that it is a "controversial performance displaying inappropriate style and technique".
I'm going to re-add the piece for this reason: The musician is a highly celebrated organ scholar; the instrument is a large and important example of a pipe organ at a highly notable location; the piece being performed is a notable composition by a notable composer. Additionally, the organ is said to reproduce the sound of Baroque music as authentically as possible, and this is an excellent performance with high quality sound recording.
Even if it were true that it was controversial and the style & technique are inappropriate, that doesn't merit deletion. This isn't an article about organ style and technique. If anyone still thinks that the video is inappropriate, please give detailed reasoning here. I'd like to see a source detailing why the performance was controversial. – jaksmata 17:30, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
The performance by Robert Morgan has again been eliminated. The organ is an important instrument and other recordings of it are important contributions to the field. This recording violates the historical principles of performance in Kittel, C.P.E. Bach, Sorge, and others. Such a discussion page is too small to quote them all and no sources have been given in support of this performance or in support of other statements made by the person initiating this discussion. In addition, the video is harming the reputation of Robert Morgan and it would be to his advantage for it to disappear.
If you want to put a video there, find another one. This is a page to promote the pipe organ and a section to promote Bach. It should not be used to promote or damage the reputation of anyone or anything else. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pipe Fan (talk • contribs) 17:13, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- The page is not here to "promote" anything, it is an objective encyclopedia article on the instrument. The video depicts a piece of organ music being played on a pipe organ; both of them are both notable in themselves, and not so hugely atypical of the music or the instrument that they will mislead readers. The person we should be thinking of when choosing a video here is someone who is wondering "what does pipe-organ music sound like" and so on, not someone who is seeking advice on historical principles of performance.
- By all means, replace it with a better video that does the same job, but the bottom line is that in the absence of such, the article is better off with it than without it. Barnabypage (talk) 17:51, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- How is that video harming the reputation of Robert Morgan, the performer? Is he ashamed of it? Are the various accounts that have been removing the video related to Robert Morgan? If so, please read WP:COI. – jaksmata 14:46, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- The latest removal of the video called it an "offensive bare-foot performance" and a "universally despised" practice ([1]). I'd like to call the editor's attention to WP:CENSOR - an official Wikipedia policy - just because you find content objectionable or despicable, that doesn't mean it should be removed. – jaksmata 20:25, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'd echo BarnabyPage's comments. Presumably Robert Morgan knows it has a license for usage in the public domain? So there shouldn't be a problem there. For the purposes of this article, all a reader would want to see is how is the instrument played, and what does it sound like. They won't know enough about technique to glean anything positive or negative from this video; nor will they be looking for authentic performance practise. Some of us may not like the video per se, but it's probably better than nothing. What would be more valuable would be one displaying more things like registration changes and using different manuals for different tone colours etc, or maybe not a piece, but some sort of technical overview of the instrument, that sort of thing. Until something like that turns up, we cannot remove this video for some sort of censorship, because we don't like it.—User:MDCollins (talk) 22:27, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- The only thing I hear that is objectionable in the video of Morgan playing is because he does it barefoot. How stupid is the objection? Very much so. I don't think you can really object to how the organ is played as long as it is played well. There are people without hands who play the piano with their feet. There's a guy from China who does that. You can do a search on YouTube for that. Playing the organ barefooted while not the typical fashion it's played can certainly be done. Furthermore, the person who removed it argued that the video is "not a representation" of pipe organ performance but rather a "showcase of one". That's an untenable argument. Notice, the meaning of representation means that it is an example of the thing itself and not the entirety of the thing itself. That's what representation means. It represents. It doesn't give you the whole thing itself. Giving you the entirety of the whole thing is not called representation. That would be the whole thing itself which in any case any video wouldn't be able to do. Yes, playing barefooted on the pipe organ is a representation of playing the pipe organ. There are many other ways to represent it too. Thank goodness that the video hasn't been removed as of this commenting! --69.134.24.167 (talk) 03:47, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Masonism & the social history of the organ
[edit]This bit on masonic organists was tacked on to 20c repertoire before being deleted:
- Organ music plays an important role in Freemason ritual such as the installation of a new Master of the Lodge, initiation of candidates, passing to the second degree and raising to the third degree[1]. Johann Christian Bach was a Freemason. [2] Sir Arthur Sullivan, Sullivan of 'Gilbert and Sullivan', was a Freemason and the Grand Organist of the United Grand Lodge of England in 1887.[3]
I disagree with the OR rational, though I agree it would be preferable to give the original references buried in List of Freemasons directly:
- Johann Christian Bach, Composer. Lodge of Nine Muses No. 235, London.[4]
- ^ http://www.freemasons-freemasonry.com/organistintro.html
- ^ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Freemasons#M
- ^ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Freemasons#H
- ^ "Johann Christian Bach". Grand Lodge of British Columbia and Yukon. 2001-03-19. Retrieved 2010-01-12.
As I see it, the issue is where the material belongs. We already have a twofold history of construction and repertoire, so maybe a third section on the use of the instrument is called for: a general reader might well be interested in how an instrument that once accompanied the screams of martyrs came to have pride of place in the Western church, the origin of Organ recitals, how and when organ playing crept into Synagogues, whether indeed Johann Gottlieb Naumann wrote the earliest organ music for Masonic rites, the rise & fall of cinematic theater organs, etc...

Builders section
[edit]In September 2011, an IP editor added a 'Builders' section. Besides lacking substance, the section favors living pipe organ builders, bordering on promotion. Per WP:NOTDIRECTORY, Wikipedia is not a trade directory or a resource for conducting business. I propose that this section be removed. Perhaps a 'See also' section could be added under which would a appear a link to List of pipe organ builders. —Waldhorn (talk) 03:12, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
- Lacking responses to the above, I've gone ahead and removed the Builders section. Please discuss concerns here. Thanks! —Waldhorn (talk) 20:29, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
Pressure
[edit]Many descriptions of pipe organs mention air pressure in ″ units (e.g. 100″ or 50″). May I ask, what is this unit and how to convert it to standard SI units? Is it inch of water? Or inch of mercury? Thanks! --Xth-Floor (talk) 10:43, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
- It is inches of water. --Danmuz (talk) 11:19, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
Stops
[edit]As a newbie trying to follow how all these parts work, I find this bit ambiguous:
- Sometimes, a single rank of pipes may be able to be controlled by several stops, allowing...
Does this mean the rank in its entirety can be activated by multiple stops (for example, singly by 8' Diapason, and in combination with others by Mixture V)? Or does it mean that a portion of a rank can be controlled by a stop? I think the paragraph is trying to illustrate the latter.
If correct, something like this may help:
- Stops can be used to control portions of a rank, allowing... For example, a portion of an 8' Diapason rank may also be made available as a 4' Octave. When both of these stops are selected...
Written that way, the rest of the paragraph follows easily.
Pbyhistorian (talk) 19:25, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- With a borrowing scheme, in addition to there often being more stops than there are total ranks, the ranks themselves are generally extended an octave in the direction of the additional desired borrowing. Thus, an 8' Diapason rank can be extended an octave from, say, 61 notes to 73 to provide for the final upper octave needed to borrow for an 8' Octave. Moving in the other direction, should you desire to borrow a 16' off a core 8' rank, you would extend the 8' down an additional octave, although many builders when extending down leave off the final octave or borrow the final octave from another existing 16' in order to save material and space. For a thorough discussion of the many flavors of unification/borrowing/extension/duplication, try giving the following books a read.

also known as
[edit]Apologies if this has been discussed before; I've been away from Wikipedia editing for a while. But the choice of "also known as" synonyms seems a bit random to me. We currently have "church organ, chapel organ, grand organ, or Baroque organ" but in that case why not "concert organ", or "cathedral organ", or "classical organ" or any of several other terms? Personally, I'd be tempted to leave it at "church organ" - of course church organs aren't strictly speaking necessarily pipe organs but it's probably the most widely-used alternative term in general parlance. Barnabypage (talk) 17:27, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
The dude who pulls the stops (assisting the organist)
[edit]How is that dude called in English? I wonder why the article doesn't mention the fact that with complex arrangements, the organist him-/herself can't be bothered with pulling and releasing stops, because organ sounds might be required to change rapidly. That's why there's an assistant to the organist, who does this (and who has preferably a little knowledge about organs as well). In my native German language, this dude is called a Registrant. But even with a small r, this term is virtually unknown in English---or, at least, extraordinarily rare. -quintaton- 2.242.182.127 (talk) 17:11, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
- "Registrant" is the term I've very occasionally heard in English when I've heard the role given any specific name at all - otherwise there's generic "assistant" or, of course, "page-turner". :) Barnabypage (talk) 00:33, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Change of BC/AD to BCE/CE
[edit]Autodidact1 has changed BC/AD to BCE/CE on the article without reason, contrary to WP:Era. They did this in an edit on 22 July, and it was not mentioned in their edit summary. I reverted last night, pointing out WP:Era, but they've reverted that. Looking through their edit history, they seem to be doing it on more pages, these examples with not so civil edit summaries. --Inops (talk) 17:32, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
Not so; I said that the BCE usage was now the preferred one, at least among rational people who reject the Theocratic usage, "BC". Autodidact1 (talk) 18:36, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
- WP:Era links to MOS:STYLEVAR which says "When either of two styles are acceptable it is inappropriate for a Wikipedia editor to change from one style to another unless there is some substantial reason for the change." I don't think your personal preference against what you see as a "theocratic" usage is a good enough reason. You're welcome to bring it up on Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style, if you think otherwise. We're likely to get other people involved that way. --Inops (talk) 19:52, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

Names
[edit]Per this edit by an IP, I understand the motivation for this change, but it seems like a tautology to me, and quite wordy, considering it's inside the infobox.

Italian Baroque organs
[edit]I've added a brief summary of the Italian Baroque organ as I felt it has an important place in musical history, and is quite different to organs across the rest of Europe. My single reference is a book by Peter Williams. I'm painfully aware that generalisations can so easily knock up against multiple exceptions, so, for example, I've written that these organs were often single-manual affairs, based on Williams' statement "Second manuals remained exceptional..." even though plenty had them. Please do let me know if you disagree with anything I've written. I wanted to add something on pitch and temperament, as there seems to be an Italian flavour here (Williams quotes Antignati as saying that the pitch of an organ can be "come si vuole", "as you like", i.e. at the builder's discretion, depending on the local taste). But the matter of pitch and temperament goes way beyond Italy and is a huge subject, so I've kept out of it. But if anyone has any thoughts... Elemimele (talk) 18:33, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
Organ range
[edit]I just can't make sense of the graphic on this page that shows the organ range. The center staff says "range of a typical organ with 2" to 16" pipes" and shows a range of C1 to C9 -- that's pretty clear. Then, to the right, there is a staff of "sound possibilities" with each C labeled with a pipe size, the implication being that the range of an organ with given min and max length will match the diagram. If that's the case, why is C7 marked as a 1" pipe when the middle staff shows the 2" pipe reaching C9? Similarly for the lowest note; the staff on the right has C1 for the 64' pipe, but the center graphic shows C1 for the 16' pipe.
Possibly I am just misreading it, but I can't be the only one. What is the actual range of a 64' to 1' organ? Assuming the middle graphic is correct for 16' to 2', then would it be C-1 to C10? 217.180.201.122 (talk) 18:55, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
Action description

- There is an extended "Further reading" section: can these be used as sources, or should they be removed?
- Many citations quote the source: this is usually no longer necessary and could cause copyright concerns. Can these be removed?
Is anyone willing to address the above concerns? If not, I may nominate this article at WP:GAR. Z1720 (talk) 02:06, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
