Short presentations of individual stops recorded life by myself using the Hauptwerk 1 version of the sample set imported into the Hauptwerk 2. I advice to listen carefully to the expressive speaking of pipes, to enjoy the complex stereo panning of the windchest layout -it is original!- and to admire the mastery of the anonymous Renaissance organbuilder and that of the modern restaurateur: Dusan Doubek.
