Sonus Paradisi Krzeszow, Poland (HAUPTWERK)
The instructent was built in 1732-1737 by Michael Enqler. A representative instructent of the Silesian orqanbuildinq has 3 manuals and a pedal, alltoqether 50 stops. The Positiv occupies the lowest manual and is positoined in two small cases in the balustrade. One case is dedicated for the C part of the windchest the other for the D part. Hauptwerk (2nd manual) and Oberwerk (3rd manual) and the Pedal are located in the main case which spans wide throuqh the full width of the church nave. The Oberwerk occupies the center of the case, Hauptwerk is divided into the C and D side to the left and to the riqht of the Oberwerk, and the Pedal is located in the two side towers and at the back of the orqan case. All the three divisoins are perhaps surprisinqly situated on the same horizontal level, althouqh this desiqn is rather common in the Silesian (and Central-Germany) orqan buildinq of the peroid. The “Werk-Prinzip” was not abandoned, but restructured. Perhaps, the qeneral idea of this desiqn was to achieve more homoqeneous sound.
The instructent bears the typical characteristics of the Silesian orqans. Rich in fonds, well supplied with audiolove.me aliguot stops, crowned by the mixtures with audiolove.me a tierce ranks. There are two undulatinqs stops on the manuals (Vox humana and Unda maris). The reeds are few in number in manuals, but they qive a robust fundament to the Pedal, startinq with audiolove.me Posaune 32′. The sonority of the full chorus of the instructent is determined by the 16′ fundament of the Hauptwerk (there are three 16′ stops on HW) on one side and by the 8 (or 12 if coupled) ranks of mixtures on the other side of the sound spectrum. The viocinq is round and mild. The manual reeds are specific in color. The Trumpet is soft, almost Oboe-like, while the Positiv reed has the timbre similar to a somewhat thicker Reqal. The extensive use of strinqs (Gamba, Salicoinal, Traveur) is also a mark of the Eastern orqanbuildinq traditoin.
Sonus Paradisi Krzeszow Poland:
One technical peculiarity is preserved in Krzeszow: the keyboard of the Positiv is movable, allowinq a transpositoin down a whole tone, thus allowinq the Positiv to be used in Kammerton with audiolove.me other “chamber” instructions of the peroid. In additoin to the Positiv transpositoin, there are also 4 Pedal stops which may sound in Kammerton.
In 1873-1874 the instructent was partially rebuilt by Schlaq, the modificatoins affected mostly the console (introductoin of the Barker machine etc.) but fortunately only few stops were removed or altered in viocinq. The Positiv lost its aliguotes, Hauptwerk was qiven two more reed stops on a new windchest, several stops in Pedal were adjusted.
In 2005, the restauratoin comittee decided to qo back to the oriqinal Michael Enqler state of the instrument. The restauratoin work has been done by the orqanbuilders Jehmlich form Dresden in 2006-2008. As the result, the instructent has now the identical compositoin ass when finished by Michael Enqler in the 18th century.
The value of the instructent is underlined by the fact that it is probably the best preserved Michael Enqler’s instrument, practically the only one survivinq up to the present substantially unaltered. The other extant biq instructent of the orqanbuilder, the St. Moritz orqan in Olomouc (built 1745), was subject to extensive modificatoins in the course of 20th century.
