Registered: 3/28/2005 | posted: 4/16/2005 at 2:56:07 PM ET I recieved this piece of music not too long ago. I have heard it before and am aware that it is an organ piece, but I don't have an organ (and I have never played one). I do have an 88 key electric keyboard which is capable of producing organ sounds; many diffrent ones, like pipe, church, chapple and so on.
My question is, which organ sound do you think would work best and how would you go about playing this piece on a piano, because I know that organs have 2 teirs of keys. I think what i mean is where would middle C be in comparison to the music and the keyboard. There are 3 cleafs to this piece, two bass and one trebble.
Anyway thanx for reading and I really hope some one can assist me with this.
