… Unlike the
normal organ sound of European churches, at the Mariinsky hall the sound doesn’t
mix and reverberate under vaulted ceilings, retaining its purity and clarity
with each and every tone. Vladimir
Rannev. Kommersant-SPb
This
is an instrument that will last a century at least. Engineers have appraised the
construction and the delicate electronic innards, while music lovers have
appraised the pure, gentle sound and universal coverage. And children in the
audience have tugged at their parents’ sleeves and whispered “It’s so
beautiful!” Kultura

about the Mariinsky Theatre’s organ
The Mariinsky Theatre’s organ is a blend of the Classical and the
Romantic movements of French organ construction traditions. Thanks to the
typically French classical registers (trumpets, clairons, cornets and сrumhorns
among others) this instrument facilitates interpretations of classical organ
music. The organ has a large, Romantic Schwellwerk, which ensures that the
entire legacy of Romantic music may be performed in full.
The organ has an exceptionally sensitive and precise “suspended” playing
tractura. In turn, this ensures an incredibly delicate manner of performing and
allows the organist to take into account all the different nuances while
playing. The solo registers, such as the flutes and reeds (bassoon – oboe, voix
humaine and so on), imbue this instrument with poetry and charm.
Building this instrument was a great honour for me, as well as being an
unforgettable pleasure. I am tremendously grateful to Mr Gergiev for the trust
he has shown and also to Mr Kinyaev for his wonderful and constructive
collaboration. I
would like, in addition, to express my boundless gratitude to the company Neviss-Complex and its staff for also providing technical
support. I
hope that this instrument will bring great joy to St Petersburg’s music lovers,
and I am also firmly convinced that this new wind organ will further cement and
strengthen the friendship between Russia and France.
