The best version on YT so far: the right sound, solemn play and an interesting mechanism.

Thanks for the tour of the inside of the organ with the music.

Jason - this is gorgeous ! This Apollo looks suspiciously like Phil and Pam's old example from Saltaire ! We've got two in storage at the moment, one for the museum and one for myself at home as I quite fancied getting a practice organ again, fabulous instruments and far superior to an electronic instrument for serious practice.

I am surprised by the nice clean sound of this Apollo as some models have a very reedy sound. Much more impressive looks of the casework than actual sound. Very nice and suitable for solemn music.
