In this channel you will find video recordings made by me of more than 100 South African organs. That includes historic organs, mostly of English origin, as well as more recent organs built during the second half of the previous century. Furthermore, you can listen to compositions by South African composers like Jacobus Kloppers, Isak Grove, Roelof Temmingh, Albert Troskie and Johan Greyling. Included in this channel are video recordings of piano music and some piano improvisations. I also got permission from friends to upload video recordings of them playing instruments like the organ, marimba, cello, piano and harp. The sound quality is not perferct, neither are the video recordings, but I hope you will enjoy the variety of music presented here.
