Echo Fantasia 4 (Ionian) Click to Listen, [7:27]
The literal echo section comprises less than a page of this 6-page score. Sequences and repeated notes and scalar passages comprise the rest, much like a keyboard improvisation, but there is a great deal of octave shifting on the same manual, which serves as another kind of echo. Registration: Récit.: Viol de Gambe 8'+ Cor de Nuit 8' + Flûte Octaviante 4'; G.O. Flûte Harmonique 8' + Prestant 4' + Nasard 3' + Octavin 2'. Uses the extended set. Midi File available. Instrument: A. Cavaillé-Coll Organ, originally Paris, France, moved to Mainz, Germany (1877) - Samples by Prof. Helmut Maier
