A tour of the Johannus organ room (and more!) | Bernies Music Land, Ringwood | Australia

On the weekend I had the pleasure of visiting Bernies Music Land in Ringwood (VIC, Australia), again, to see the current stock of Johannus organs, Schimmel and Bernstein pianos and more. It's always plenty of fun visiting the store as I'm good friends with Craig Douglass (organ department manager) and Bernie Capicchiano (owner). In fact, my current Studio 370 console was from this very store and my earlier Studio 170 as well. With Bernies permission, we filmed a little tour video with a focus on the organs and a little peek into the piano section. I was also accompanied by my good friend, ‪@ThomasSummerfield‬, who thoroughly enjoyed the visit too. We were like two kids in a toy store. Bernies Music Land are also a local stockist for OrganMaster shoes.
For Australian residents, I can highly recommend Bernies Music Land for all your musical needs, especially with all things organs and pianos.

Great to see you, James, and Tom, having plenty of fun trying out organs and pianos at Bernies Music Land. I particularly enjoyed hearing Tom at the various pianos - made me wish he would upload more! Thank you both!

[@james.flores]

I tried to get a lot of footage of Tom (much to his dismay), but hopefully he will upload soon. I’ll be on his back about it.

great information and wonderful to see you laughing and Thomas smiling - he will win when he wears that jacket to the performances. Thanks for posting this.

[@james.flores]

Thanks, Michael. I do love that jacket he wears.

Hey, very nice video! Exploring an organ shop! I recently had the opportunity to play in a prayer service on a Johannus organ in a small abbey chapel. The organ was almost too powerful for the small room, 46 stops, I think!
And wow... a piano for more than 350.000 $... puh... my e-piano was about... 550 €? lol
I can imagine how nice it was for you.

It’s a toy shop for organists!
