Thank you to my subscribers and fans for the very generous comments! I am sorry I have not uploaded any videos for a while. I promise there will be more to come that are not just slide shows! Enjoy.
This video was recorded live at a recital I gave last summer at the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam. This organ, by Vater/Müller, is in need of restoration. You can see how stiff some of the stops are to pull. The key action is also a challenge. Enjoy! www.josephripka.com
My first time playing a Cavaille-Coll organ. This recital is what the French call l"Audition. It is a half hour program between the masses at St. Sulpice. This is the first of three pieces I played on the program. I must give generous thanks to Daniel Roth for being so kind. This would not have been possible if not for him. Enjoy! www.josephripka.com

This is one of the oldest organs in Texas. Built in 1865 by Johann Traugott Wandke, the organ contains all hand-carved wooden pipes made from local knotless cedar.
