- We told the folks at Temple Square that Doug Wright Show has "live from the Salt Lake Tabernacle" on his broadcast bucket list, and they not only gave him the go-ahead to host his show there, they gave him a personal, behind-the-scenes tour - complete with the opportunity to play the organ!
What a wonderful treat! So grateful for Doug and KSL for taking the time to put together this video.
I am an organist and still taking lessons and now have been taking lessons every week from my 2nd instructor Blaine Gale for 43 and appreciate all the things that he has taught me. This is an amazing clip of the organ at the Conference Ctr and the SL tabernacle with the history behind pipes and also how it works all organists and music lovers should see this clip IT'S AWESOME and gets a thumbs up!
What an honor for me to have played a concert there on this magnificent instrument it was indeed an unforgettable experience!
It's always amazing to watch videos like these,it's rather soothing and enhanced ones peace of mind.
I've played this organ twice in my life
Lucky you.
I got to sing in a choir in the tabernacle once as part of a multi-stake conference. (There were 3 Stakes when the meeting started and 5 Stakes by the end!) The organ was amazing! From the choir seats, you can totally tell what pipe each sound is coming from.
I have always loved this organ. Still prefer it over the Conference Center organ.
I think the Conference Center instrument suffers from inferior acoustics compared to the Tabernacle. Of course, any room suffers from inferior acoustics compared to the Tabernacle.
@@bobareebop I believe the Conference organ also has fewer ranks, but the ranks it does have are likely scaled larger.
Doug's happy smile is so telling...like the proverbial kid in the candy store
32 foot pipes are known as "expensive drafts" and are a joy to any organist's heart,
ForHow nice to see Robert Poll in this video. Many years we worked together on the standard LDS church organ we supplied all over the world. A very skilled curator of the organs in SLC.
I always loved the organ!
It's just amazing and mind boggling.
you should check out a mechanical instrument. TALK ABOUT MIND BOGGLING!
This is unbelievable stuff I wish they would let members through on tours
Of coarse they do ,!!!
Where in the world did you get the idea that members can't go on...
That's absolutely ridiculous...!!
The organ looks like The Count’s Pipe Organ in “The Number of The Day” segments on Sesame Street. The pipe organ has 20 pipes and The Count plays on his organ to get to the number of the day. The odd number pipes have male voices and the even number pipes have female voices. If the number of the day is 0 then the organ disappears in a puff of smoke.
Take a look at the 12 days of Christmas with the count and Richard, it’s fun
Amazing building!
Wow!!!!!!!! Thank you to Doug Wright and Richard Elliot and this Ron Paul, is it? Sorry if I got your name wrong!? Fabulous tour!!!
An exact duplicate of that console that's either built by Allan or Rodgers Organs that have taken sampled acoustic sounds from the Mormon Tabernacle conference center pipe organ console with the exact same dimensions and specifications would look great in my living room ☺️
Wow, I know Doug not well. But to see him play, wow.
That mixing console!
This is very interesting
One time I was sitting in the back on the balcony, the organ was playing. I didn't know about the pipes in the back, Suddenly they started playing, I was startled. I looked behind me and saw the pipes. TIL
If the Great Tabernacle Organist (Alexander Schreiner) was the king, then the Great Conference Center Organist (Richard Elliott) is the Prince. Mr. Elliott! Please do not retire until the Lord wants you to. You will be sorely missed.
When I began listening to The Choir, Richard Evans was the narrator, and Frank Asper was one of the organists, along with Alexander Schreiner. Probably back in the 1950's and 1960's. Lots of memories.
I LOVE THE STORY!!!
I swear I could hear the choir singing when you were in the attic.
I am racking my brain, what song is he playing at time 3:28?
"A mighty Fortress is our God" is the name of the hymn
@@Pfeifender Thanks
Very interesting,,like sub marine 👍
Το Tempernacle Choir's House είναι ένα εξαιρετικό κτήριο "πρότυπο" και το όνειρό μου είναι να μπορέσω να φτιάξω ένα αντίγραφο στην Ελλάδα στη Θεσσαλονίκη ως έδρα της ομάδας μπάσκετ του Άρη Θεσσαλονίκης. Είναι η αντίστοιχη ομάδα της Utah -Jazz περίπου τα ίδια χρώματα (κίτρινο - μαύρο) αντί κίτρινο - άσπρο - μωβ...
Hey KWL
Great choice 18:01 -human ears are not digital, they are analog. Music demands analog. Hi-Fi analog.
There's money in GOD!
2 bad they couldn'tfi show how the statue was put on.
