Historical characteristic structure of organs
Among keyboard instruments-in fact, among all instruments-the organ is the most unique. Its history can be traced back to more than two thousand years ago, and it is the oldest musical instrument. It is said that it evolved from the hydraulic organ keys used in ancient Egypt and ancient Greece. The hydraulic organ was invented by the engineer of Alexandria, Egypt in the 3rd century BC. But the principle of organ sound has not changed so far; Modern organ, like the oldest organ, has bellows to let air into vibrating tubes. Although the principle seems simple, the operation of modern organs is extremely complicated. Most of today's organs are electronically operated, but older organs are controlled by the mechanical principle of traction or lever. A high-scoring organ has a pedal and at least two keyboards-some as many as five, six or seven. Each keyboard controls its own "zone"-the keyboard itself is a small organ. The timbre of the organ changes through the expansion and contraction of the airway, and the timbre depends on the type of nursing. There are basically two types of air pipes-lip pipes and spring pipes. The lip tube sounds like a flute like a big tape recorder, and the spring tube has a single jump spring, which is sharp and high-pitched. It mainly relies on the sound tube to make sound, and the player controls the air supply. Because it is played on the keyboard, it is classified as a keyboard instrument. Five hundred years later, the Romanesque organ was widely used in theaters and various places of entertainment. In the 14 and 15 centuries, the structure of the organ was more perfect after the improvement of timbre and mechanical production. /kloc-in the 0/7th century, the development of the organ was almost completed, and the body became huge, with more decorations. Organ produced in France, northern Germany, Italy and Spain all have their own unique styles, and each style reflects their different musical and architectural traditions. To skillfully operate the complex structure of organs, it is necessary to have eyes, heart, hands and feet, and the four must be coordinated, so this is a challenging job. Because there are so many kinds of organs and different methods of operation, few musical instruments are as complicated as operating an organ. In the manufacture of early organ, the first thing to face was the problem of size and function, which was closely related to the popular music style at that time. The most famous musical instrument is probably the Baroque organ, which is usually very small, with two or three keyboards, a pedal and twenty to thirty-five beats. Baroque organ is most suitable for Bach's organ music. Romantic organ is a large and elegant one of all musical instruments, with various plugs and many other peculiar designs. Most romantic composers find that the organ is not an ideal instrument for playing their works, because they feel that some complex and diverse timbres are better performed by symphony orchestras. ......................................... organist Jacques? Tati is currently the president of the National Paris Regional Conservatory of Music, the director of the Paris Saint Art Festival, and an authority on organ works by Bach, Liszt and Franck, Cesar. He is a famous performer who loves organ music, and the expressive force of improvisation is unparalleled! The first time I was invited to perform in Taiwan Province, I brought the most classic organ music, so that I could only see the organ I couldn't hear and make a beautiful sound! Bach's "Touching Music and Fugue in D Minor" often appears in movies as a vampire, showing the changeable personality of the organ and some gloomy flavor in solemnity! It is also very popular, because it appeared in Disney's classic music cartoon Mickey Mouse Fantasy and piano player Michaelson's album! Bach wrote works that have been celebrated through the ages with gorgeous counterpoint. This time, Jacques? Tati's wonderful interpretation! ■ Performer: Organ/Jacques? Jacques Taddei ■ Introduction: Chen Guanzhou ■ Track: Gandel: Concerto in B flat major, Bach No.2, Op.4: Two hymns Homme Pleure Surtes Lourdes Peches, Choral du Veilleur, Touching and Complexity in D minor Liszt: Fantasia and Complexity according to B.A.C.H Tati: Impromptu One is a device for forcing air into the pipeline, the other is a series of sound tubes, and the third is a mechanism connected with the keys to control the air in and out. There are hundreds of sound tubes in an organ, which are made of wood or metal. Some are equipped with reed pores, which are called reed tubes, while others have only one pore, which is called trachea. The length of the sound tube controls the pitch, and the longer the sound tube, the lower the sound. Even sound tubes with the same size produce different timbres because they belong to different sound tube groups. The sound tube stands on the bellows, and the lower end of the bellows has compressed air. The control key on the piano is called the sound plug, which is used to select the sound tube group. The lower end of the sound tube is provided with two parts for controlling sound production; One is a flute and the other is a reed. Compressed air must be found through one of the metal "tongues". There can be three or more keyboards controlled by both hands and pedals controlled by both feet in the organ. 2006-12-0213: 33: 20 supplement: instrument name: organ clef: treble part: treble clef, no shift notation; Bass part: bass notation, no shift notation; Bass: (used for pedal bass keyboard) Double clef in bass without moving notes. Structure: It is the largest musical instrument in the history of the world, with extremely complicated structure and no fixed specifications. Generally, it consists of a keyboard system and a sound tube system. Musical Instrument Features: It is a free reed instrument in the reed instrument family, with the widest range, great momentum and solemn atmosphere. Its rich harmony is by no means inferior to that of an orchestra. It is an instrument that can inspire people's awe of music, and it is also the most religious instrument. 2006-12-0213: 33: 54 Supplement: The organ is an ancient musical instrument with a long history, which was produced around 200 BC. There are many kinds, but their common feature is that the bellows injects air into the piano box, and the player uses his fingers or feet to operate the keyboard to exert pressure, so that the air enters metal or wooden sound tubes with different lengths and diameters, thus playing music. The organ used to be a purely religious instrument. In many European countries, there is an organ in the church of every ordinary village. It is a typical solo and harmonic instrument, which is usually only used as accompaniment for religious songs, even less in orchestras and symphony orchestras. This organ is very big, and the largest is more than ten meters high. It has more than 30,000 sound pipes and seven-layer keyboards, and it makes a grand sound when playing. Roman? Roland wrote that Christopher heard the organ for the first time. "shivering is like being baptized from head to toe." 2006-12-0213: 34: 21supplement: the function of the plug valve is to enrich the timbre of the organ. The application of plug valve is as rich and interesting as an artist's palette, and everyone can bring out different flavors. 2006-12-0213: 35: 23 supplement: more:1.hongen/art/gdyy/fqysj/gf4022.sciam/circuit/circusshow?

Generally speaking, it is unlikely to be seen in the market now. Most of them were often used by the early Catholic Church. Unlike pianos, most of them are made of copper pipes. Personally, I think the sound is louder than percussion. The piano is pointed and has some metallic sounds. 2006-12-0213: 39:18 supplement: among keyboard instruments-in fact, the organ is the most unique. Its history can be traced back to more than two thousand years ago, and it is the oldest musical instrument.

The difference is that the organ vibrates the reed by blowing it with a pedal blower. Early organ performance usually required two partners, one playing and the other playing (usually the little boy in the church). This method lasted for more than 2000 years. Later, the scale of the organ became larger and larger, and it was too much for human to blow, so it began to blow with mechanical equipment, and thus developed a more complicated keyboard mechanical structure-because of the huge wind pressure, pure human can not press the keyboard. At present, the common organs are mechanical organs, electromechanical organs and electric compression organs. [Editor] The historical organ first appeared around 250 BC. It is the most complicated, bulky and expensive instrument in the history of musical instruments. This is a magnificent and terrible machine. The organ is a purely religious (Christian) instrument, which is usually built at the same time as the church or opera house that owns it-because the structure of the organ is directly attached to the building structure. Therefore, there is no clear specification limit for the organ. The size of the organ is determined according to the size and economic strength of the church or opera house itself. Organ is a free reed instrument among reed instruments, and its playing method is similar to other keyboard instruments. The range is extremely wide, usually with several layers of keyboards, and there is a pedal keyboard at the foot. The specific pitch is controlled by many plugs. The treble part is recorded by treble clef, the bass part by bass clef, and the pedal keyboard part by bass clef. Organ has a loud sound and full timbre, which is especially suitable for playing serious and sacred religious music in a solemn atmosphere. In medieval Europe, almost every town had a large or small organ in its church. During religious festivals, melodious music can be heard floating around the town. Being an organist in a famous cathedral is also an honor that musicians are proud of. The organ installed in a medium-sized church has about 1200 sound tubes, 16 plugs (different tones), two sets of keyboards and pedals, and it takes two years to manufacture. The acoustic effect should be adjusted according to the acoustic characteristics of the room in the performance place during the later assembly. At present, the largest organ in the world is in an auditorium in Atlantic City. /kloc-before the 0/8th century, the organ was designed separately for each church and assembled on site. 18th century, French engineer Aristide Cavari-Cole.

1811-1899) began to test the factory production of the organ. He greatly improved the production technology of the organ. The organ he made is of good quality and has a huge volume when playing strong notes. It can make a thunderous sound that the previous organ can't match, and it can also play a whisper-like timbre to express subtle emotions delicately. At present, the organs of more than 20 churches, such as Trinity Church and Strasbourg Cathedral, are made in Cavailher. [Editor] Since the 20th century, people have been able to make the organ simulate the sounds of all musical instruments. By adjusting the stop, the organ can imitate all kinds of musical instruments realistically, from piano to violin. Nevertheless, people still appreciate Bach-style organ music in Baroque period.
