Jack Bethards and Nigel Potts demonstrate the 15 stop, 17 rank Schoenstein organ at Christ & St. Stephen's Church in New York City. Jack, president of Schoenstein, explains the tonal characteristics of each stop and Nigel, organist and choirmaster of the church, plays short examples from the organ and transcription repertoire.  You will see and hear how the stops fit into tonal families and then combine to create a musical color palette that the organist uses to “orchestrate” the music.  The Schoenstein Double Expression system is illustrated.  Other organ design principles that can make a small instrument sound like a much larger symphonic organ are explored.
