- Pedalexercitium in G minor, BWV 598
[2:4]
Written for a student to practice the pedals, it is also a stunning display of the pedal resources on the Marcussen organ. Beginning on Principals
16+8, there is an echo on the Pedal 8 Principal alone, then the 4' Octav is added and for the echo the 8 Principal is withdrawn; then the Mixtur is
added as well as the restored Principal 8; for an echo effect the Mixtur is withdrawn. There is no mistaking the pedal reed entrance - restored
Mixture + 16 Dulcian + 8 Trompet, with an echo which withdraws the Trompet. Finally, full pedal: the Skalmeje 4 (this is usually called a Schalmei)
crowns the entire division. No couplers were used in this demo.
