Here we demonstrate the wonderful romantic organ of the Herz Jesu Kirche in Graz. Many thanks to my good and talanted friend @TheMikeOrganist for doing this tour of stops together with me.
This is Part 2, which demonstrates some of the possibilitis in combinations. We tried to show as much of the organ as possible, but of course there will always be some things missing. So it's best to try out the instrument in person, also to enjoy it to your fullest :)
As a very powerful and versatile instrument it is considered as one of the most important organs in Graz. Situated in it's most beautiful setting, the neogothic church gives the instrument a very wonderful touch with it's accoustics. At the same time, it is the biggest church in Graz, also having the highest church spire of styria, and 3rd highest in all of Austria, only being topped by the Stephansdom in Vienna and the Mariendom in Linz.
The organ was built by Walcker in 1891, and enlarged by the same company (Rückpositiv was added and some stops changed/added) in 1941 and 1991. In 2013 a restoration by Rieger Orgelbau also took place, which added a modern Setzer combination system, better swell shades were installed and the electrics were modernized.
