Sometimes all that is needed ... ... is MUSIC!!! During this stressful time it is becoming apparent to all how important music is to our well being, all the more so for people living in assisted living and nursing homes. Whether it is to revive a skill learned in youth, or to support in-home worship, consider giving the gift of music in the form of a Cantorum portable organ to your local residential home.Cantorum DuoThe new Cantorum Duo is a 2 manual portable organ by Viscount.

(Chicago) on 01/10/2020 I absolutely love my new portable Viscount Cantorum Duo organ! It feels very nice to have an organ at home and I have always wanted an organ at home since I started learning how to play 12 years ago. I really like the variety of colors and sounds it has, particularly the Trumpet 8 on the Great with the Symphonic style, as it sounds like a cathedral organ. My favorite pedal stop is the 16 Posaune for the Barok and Baroque style, as it has a nice rich strong sound. I live at Misericordia Heart of Mercy in Chicago which is a home for people with special needs, and I have access to Blessed Stepinac Croatian Church in Chicago that has a three manual Wiener, but it needs major repairs. So, it’s great to have the Cantorum Duo organ that has far more colors on it than the Croatian Church organ. In closing, my life is very fulfilling now that I have organ freedom both at the Croatian Church and at my CILA (Community Integrated Living Arrangement) Misericordia home. As the owner of a Cantorum VI, I was happy to see Viscount’s introduction of a two-manual instrument that would offer more playing flexibility. It’s a vast improvement over the older one-manual instrument. Some of the new features I like are the extra voices (esp. the 16’ pedal reed), the ability to change voicing parameters on each piston, actual pistons under the lower manual, better speakers that provide more heft to the pedal stops, and smoother feel to the keys. And I paid less for the Cantorum Duo than I did for the original Cantorum VI! My thanks to Henry and his team for helping me acquire a fine instrument that sounds great and has a lot portability. |
