The Queen of Organs

The “Wiener Konzerthaus” is a venue as legendary as it gets. Renowned for its stunning architecture and exceptional acoustics, it also houses an extraordinary piece of Austrian musical tradition and craftsmanship: the Great Rieger Organ, often hailed as the Queen of Organs. One glance and one note are all it takes to understand why. Being the largest concert organ in continental Europe, the instrument not only stands tall, but also sounds huge. We were given exclusive access to sample this extraordinary instrument in all its glory, so that you can experience its majestic tones firsthand. Mixer presets and custom settings expand the possibilities of this remarkable instrument far beyond the genres it is normally used for.

Overview

  • Legendary instrument at Vienna Konzerthaus

  • Tailored multi-timbral Vienna Organ Player

  • Easy manageable manuals and pedal

  • Perfect overview with three main tabs

  • Tremulant and Swell options

  • Masterfully crafted mixer presets

  • With 116 stops for its five manuals and the pedal board, the Great Rieger Organ was built by the famous “Gebrüder Rieger” company of Jägerndorf, Silesia, and installed in 1913 – the year the venerable Konzerthaus in the heart of Vienna officially opened its doors. Being installed in such a surrounding – as opposed to an organ in an overly reverberant cathedral – makes it an ideal match for orchestral instruments playing on a scoring stage or in a concert hall.
