John: Difficult lighting. Needs a tripod and lamps switched off and 30 Seconds exposure....
Yes Frank.  Actually it would be preferred if the priest or sexton would lower that hanging candle.  Or go up and use a super-wide ;)

The St. Bavis in Haarlem is so stuffed with chandeliers that only a sideways perspective or an illegal ascend to the pulpit can help with a clear shot of the Müller Organ (see one of my first posts on page 1 of this thread...)

...organs are always a challenge and most of them are worth the effort!

This looks like a very powerful instrument and quite a modern one too. Thank you.

Another Klais organ. I recommend you "cathedral music" composed and played by Gunnar Idenstam on that very organ. Virtuoso, well-crafted, and entertaining at the same time.

The Iceland Organis a Klais. Very cool. If you come here I make sure Philipp Klais will give us a tour of his workshop

sometimes it is difficult to fit into his schedule because he is all over the planet and has 4 kids too.

Walking around town today I snapped this image of a beautiful instrument.

It was built new in 1863 to Tromsø Domkirke. It has recently been restored to it's original form. An expanded modul from the 1950's was removed, and it was returned to french baroque style. It is not big, but it sounds really beautiful. The iriginal builder was Claus Jensen, wich also built important organs in Oslo and Bergen in the same period. As far as I know, this is the only original Claus Jensen organ that is still in full use.
