Begone, Unbelief - Pitshanger Methodist Church, Ealing, London

Me playing the organ at Pitshanger Methodist Church in Ealing, London. br br The organ was first built in 1921 by an unknown organ builder for a cost of £321. In 1955 the John Compton Organ Company Ltd completely rebuilt this instrument which included a new detached stopkey console, electric action, new casework and the addition of a 'Fagotto' reed stop. In 1995, the organ had new electric action installed by Rushworth and Dreaper. The specification reads: br br PEDAL br Acoustic Bass 32' br Bourdon 16' br Flute 8' br Fifteenth 4' br Fagotto 16' br Great to Pedal br Swell to Pedal br br GREAT br Open Diapason 8' br Stopped Diapason 8' br Dulciana 8' br Principal 4' br Stopped Flute 4' br Contra Fagotto 16' br Fagotto 8' br Clarion 4' br Swell Sub Octave to Great br Swell Octave to Great br Swell to Great br br SWELL br Lieblich Gedact 8' br Salicional 8' br Wald Flute 4' br Contra Fagotto 16' br Fagotto 8' br Clarion 4' br Sub Octave br Octave br Tremulant br br ACCESSORIES br 4 double touch thumb pistons to Great and Pedal br 3 double touch thumb pistons to Swell and Pedal br 3 reversible thumb pistons br Double touch canceller to each division br 2 ventil switches br br For this first video I am playing the hymn 'Begone, Unbelief' to the tune 'Laudate Dominum (Gauntlett)'. br br Many thanks to the church officials for allowing me access to this beautiful Compton organ.
