With the ECHO Tutorials, we want to share information. Because not everyone has the privilege of having easy access to a historic organ. However, it is important to get in touch with historic organs. Because those organ tells us exactly how literature should be played: through its construction, the type of stops, mechanical devices, tuning, etc.

In the tutorials the organist teaches in his mother tongue because there is a direct link between language and music. English subtitles are always provided.

We hope these tutorials can inspire and motivate you.
