Like the type of organ that was built in the 17th century, it includes a minimum of really essential stops that can be grouped into two categories: Ripieno stops<em> (full play) <\/em>and <em>Da Concerto stops <\/em>(concert). At first glance, this ensemble may seem limited considering the importance of a good number of French organs of the time, but in reality, it is so coherent and perfect that it is sufficient on its own. Italian organ builders will keep this model more or less intact (while adjusting it a little) until our century, unlike other schools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The instrument has a single keyboard and a drawbar pedal. Tuning fork A = 440Hz, meantone temperament.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/ligneorguesremarquables.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/BELFORT-Ste-ODILE_Girolamo-FRESCOBALDI-Dernier-verset-du-Kyrie-avec-le-Ripieno_Jean-Charles-ABLITZER.mp3\"><\/audio><figcaption>Girolamo FRESCOBALDI &#8211; dernier verset du Kyrie (avec le Ripieno), Jean-Charles ABLITZER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/ligneorguesremarquables.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/BELFORT-Ste-ODILE_Girolamo-FRESCOBALDI-Toccata-avanti-la-messa-de-la-Madona_Jean-Charles-ABLITZER.mp3\"><\/audio><figcaption>Girolamo FRESCOBALDI &#8211; Toccata avanti la messa de la Madona, Jean-Charles ABLITZER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/ligneorguesremarquables.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/BELFORT-Ste-ODILE_Girolamo-FRESCOBALDI-Toccata-per-lElevazione_Jean-Charles-ABLITZER.mp3\"><\/audio><figcaption>Girolamo FRESCOBALDI &#8211; Toccata per l&#8217;Elevazione, Jean-Charles ABLITZER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4278,"template":"","class_list":["post-1198","orgues","type-orgues","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Italian Organ in Belfort - Ligne des Orgues Remarquables<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Buffet peint et dor\u00e9, Ripieno et jeux Da Concerto, G\u00e9rald Guillemin&#039;s organ is designed for very &quot;Italian&quot; concerts.
