New set of recordings for Eminent UK

In February 2018, organist Simon Lumby recorded an exciting and unique programme of organ music for Eminent UK.


Featuring a broad range of organ repertoire from Bach to Vierne, the recordings show the outstanding clarity of sound that can be generated from the Eminent system. 

 

The organ used was a Cantata III with sixteen channels of sound. The speaker and amplifier systems were the result of a year’s research and consultation to develop the systems that Eminent produce. 

 

The series of videos will be published in the Listen>> section of the Eminent UK website via our YouTube page>> which can also be subscribed to.

“The form of synthesis that is used in Eminent’s system is versatile and allows us to mould precisely the sound we wish to create. Having worked in the music industry as a freelance musician for many years, I have high expectations and a clear vision of what I believe an outstanding organ sound should be. It was a great pleasure to spend several days voicing the organ which was used in the series of recordings which are to be released over the next few months for Eminent UK. Every harmonic of every voicing point on every stop was painstakingly justified both within its own rank and against the neighbouring ranks. Any organ rank whether it be pipe or digital needs to work sympathetically with its neighbours. Additive Synthesis gives me the sense of control that no other sound synthesis system can. The result is a three-dimensional sound which has plenty of guts. I am so grateful to the team at Eminent UK for developing the amplifier and speaker systems. The combination of their technical knowledge and my musical background has proved dynamite in terms of the quality of sound.”  SHEA LOLIN

A huge thank-you from Eminent UK to the 50,000 people who have liked, loved, commented, tweeted and watched the first in our new series of recordings within the first 14 days of release across a number of social media platforms and at the Music & Drama Expo at Kensington Olympia!
