The Musical Secretary
Playing outside the Salzburg Hornwerk
7 o'clock in the Evening
LE LUDION - Eve & Philippe Crasse
The Lady in the "boudoir" of her mansion is sitting in front of the fine period secretary, thinking to the letter she is going to write, may be a poem. Now she is listening to the organ housed inside the furniture and she draws the inspiration from the music, the Ballet of Scheidemann, Kinder symphony of Leopold Mozart or Tarentelle of Ricci.
The organ is devoted to the music of this epoca; the pipes, one row of tin flutes, one of wooden bourdons and doubles basses, are voiced for the best rendering of chamber music. The music arrangments are stored on microchip with all the music parameters - effects of stops. This is the alliance of modern and traditionnal technologies for a great music organ enjoyment.
