I know that "me too" posts are verboten, but I guess a "not me" would be okay
(hopefully)...
I really do enjoy the unique "organ only" sounds from the short-resonator
reeds. They provide sounds unique to organs and work well, although
not authentically in most all literature. I recall how beautifully Bill Weaver
played the Franck Chorales on a 3/32 Flentrop with on a Trompet on the Great and
a Dulzian 16 on the Swell. It was different and unique, but it worked.
Weird little reeds like the Trompetregal and Musette, especially when placed
horizontally in the case for the purpose of colour and not volume are amazing in
their ability to blend and form new colours with other stops in the
organ. These reeds are not as successful when grafted on to an "American
Classic" instrument which has them separated tonally from the rest of the stops.
A small two manual instrument with Principal and Flute choruses and
Trompetregal, Musette, and Holzregal would offer amazing possibilities.
