Organ rota

I was on duty today as part-time organist. Our lovely Daphne who usually plays has not been well recently so she asked me to step in for her. Some lovely hymns today including Love Divine, all love's excelling. How many of you had that one at your wedding?
I am always in awe of anyone that can play instruments. Think I secretly wish I had learnt to play the piano, I could read music at one time, but not fast enough! This looks great .

@carole_sandford Thanks Carole, sadly I don't play the foot pedals though.

Oh beautiful, we did, it must be lovely being able to play. I am so frustrated since my op I have not been able to use my arm to even practice the few songs I can play very badly. I got a keyboard for my big birthday last year.

Stunning capture of this beautiful organ! Brings back wonderful memories as my Mum used to play at our church.

@craftymeg I do hope you will be able to play again soon.

A beautiful organ , ans so good to be able to play this in your church - I used to play sometimes in my chapel at home (a teenager before going to Collage ) two keyboards , but I do not remember so many stops !!

@beryl I don't need to use many of the stops as we have some presets. The previous organist set up three sets A, B and C. You can see the 'A' lit up in the bottom left hand corner. The only one I use regularly is the one to connect the foot pedals to the lower keyboard.

I bought an organ a few years ago. I am learning slowly. Good enough to please myself but not for public playing.

Lovely hymn and lovely to get to use the organ when you get chance.

My sister had Love Divine all love's excelling at her wedding.

Besides the keys, there's so many buttons!

Great capture

@leggzy I don't use the buttons much, it's all preset!

I think most people had Love Divine at their weddings - isn't it almost compulsory? Nice shot!
