    I have been in that church many, many times in the 1990's when I used to work for a company based in Luebeck, a beautiful city. This is the first time I have heard the organ it was never played when I was visiting. I was fascinated that Bach had visited Luebeck and send 3 months I think it was there and Buxtehude was resident and many of his compositions where probably played for the very first time there.

      Buxtehude was appointed "Kantor" at the Marienkirche and remained in that position for many years. This church was in that time an important musical center. One of his pupils was JSB (circa 1703)

    What lovely sounds! Having visited there, though, it's as much about the acoustics of the place, and how they blend with the organ. This "Little Organ" is the gem -- there's also a bigger organ, and it sounds wonderful too, but the Stellwagen is the one with character.
    Thanks for showing that character here!

    The Trechterregal/Trichterregal and the Schalmei would blend well together. What beautiful early stops. I believe it would work well as a chorus trumpet for a home organ; especially if mounted en chamade or mitered forward to project their sound. They may not be ideal at 4' pitch though, due to their subdued tone. When combined with the brightness of the Regal Length Schalmei (Especially a Rohr Schalmei), at 4' pitch, you get a very good approximation of a trumpet stop without as much in your face growl of a normal regal while still having a shorter resonator compared to a full length reed like a trumpet. Heck, I've gone through many revisions of a future home organ project that seeks to reacquire and expand my father's Wicks 3 rank unit organ to 14 ranks for a basement and even though I wanted something like a Bombarde, the full length resonators and the very loud volume is a detractor, even on low wind pressure. The brassy yet also reedy sound of the Trechterregal combined with the brightness of the Schalmei is a perfect compromise for me.

    What an amazing sounding instrument!! I saw in the comments that it is tuned to A=440? That's kind of unusual for a Renaissance era organ, since most of them were tuned to A=432 or lower. Regardless, it sounds beautiful, and the stops added over the years fit right in with the nature of the organ.😍😁👍🎵🎶🎵
