    he plays better than I do, of course, he's probably been playing longer and taking lessons longer. He'll have loads of fun when his feet really start to grow, organ shoes aren't the cheapest things in the world.

      Take a listen to his playing here:</p>

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWFmO254ICo&amp;feature=PlayList&amp;p=ACB 80F88F030B4FC&amp;index=2</p>

      He sounds very much like Virgil Fox! Very impressive. </p>

          Well, one is ostensibly an Austin, or an organ with an Austin console, one is obviously a tracker of some sort, the third, I know nothing of, and finally there is the video of him on an Allen pipe/digi hybrid. I wish I knew more, but without knowing where he's from, I can't find out anything. If I knew where he was, thenI could hunt down that Austin, provided that there's only one Austin in his area of three manuals. I could then also check out that Tracker, maybe see if his local AGO chapter had any info on the local organs, preferrably a gallery of local organs.

              That Austin is very similar to the one at St. John's Mayfair (ELCA) in Philadelphia, PA where my aunt is organist. Biggest difference is that at St. John's, Man. I is Choir and not Positiv (it has the absolute LOVELIEST Dolce + Dolce Celeste) and there is no pedal 32', although when I played there I used the old trick of playing pedal fifths to imitate a resultant and it sounded pretty good.

                Thank you, Austin, for the stoplist of <SPAN>St. Mark’s Episcopal ChurchAustinOpus 2628. It is not unlike our Schantz III/72. Your Positiv is much like our Choir. Our floating Positiv is below. We also have a few other 'goodies' such as a Kontraposaune 32 and a full-compass Grand Cornet V. (N.B.: In this context, the word 'sanctuary' means 'chancel' because the main organ is in the loft.)</SPAN></P><SPAN>

                  Re: Young organist on youtube

                  Just a word of clarification, I'm in Ohio, that Austin is in Arkansas. I could post the stop list of Austin op. 1576, a 4/55, but, tht'd be kind of a pain.

                    Well, I suppose the budding organist is an Arkansas kid. Makes me rather proud!</P>


                    We've identified the Austin organ atSt. Mark's in Little Rock,and the 4-manual is theRuffati at Immanuel Baptist in Little Rock. I'veplayed that organ once, but I see so many that I didn't recognize it untilmy partner pointed it out tome.</P>


                    Guess I could do some detective work and find out who thelittle guyis, but I thinkit would be best to let him remain anonymous until he chooses to identify himself. Nice to know that we have someone like him coming along.</P>

                      I actually do know who it is, and he is in fact from Arkansas. For his sake, however, I'll keep his name private. One of the organs on his page (the "Hymns/Arrangements" video) is Letourneau op 39 at Baylor University in Waco, Texas.</p>

                      He is doing quite well with the organ and is very enthusiastic about it. He was working on the Lemmens Fanfare earlier this year and was going a marvelous job.

                            Youtube, my friend, on Youtube, I go by Fozzymaple (the origin of the name could be quite a story in itself, but we won't go there). But I asked in what church I might find that Austin. And was given not only the name of the church, but an (incorrect) opus number, a year of installation and a stop list to boot.

                              Hi there OctaveBasse8,</p>

                              I just wanted to welcome you to the forum and introduce myself. I live in Rochester, NY, and I'm 15. I am taking organ lessons at the wonderful Eastman Community Music School (the prep department) with Stephen Kennedy and piano lessons through an equally marvellous private teacher. I am playing organ for all services at the Old Paths Bible Baptist Church (about 400 +/- 25 worshipers on a Sunday) and freelancing where I can. I am also the oldest of 11, soon to be 12 children and homeschooled to boot.</p>

                              Enough about me. I am assuming that SBD is your teacher? I haven't been to your YouTube page yet, but from what comments people have been leaving, you seem to be the next Felix Hell? [:D]</p>

                              You may also want to meet Brandon Tunomikoski.</p>

                              He lives in Omaha, Nebraska and plays at St. Cecilia's Cathedral,</p>
