This is a great opportunity to get a closer look at the King of Instruments and how the stops work on the organ. There are, of course, the standard organ sounds, but things get interesting when using ‘mutations’ — and even more interesting with stops that imitate orchestral instruments, including the flute, oboe and even the 15th-century Crumhorn. And then, there are also buttons, or pistons, positioned below the manual keyboards, which can be used by organists to change registrations.
