Hi All,
Curiosity has got the better of me as I have searched the web and can't find any references to this apart from this particular organ. There is a new pipe organ in the town of Azzio in Northern Italy built by the Mascioni company (and recently released as a VPO sampleset). It has been built without the lowest C# on either of the two manuals or pedal. I can't figure out any reason why you would do this? Is it an historical or traditional practice and even if it was why perpetuate it in a modern organ? Surely it would limit the usefulness of the organ to some extent. Thanks in advance!
