The complete description

FIRST CYCLE / INSTRUMENT KIND
FC09
Pressure organ
The Stormglass Stair
Kind #55 / weather-organ-pressure-organ
Low air columns
A compact bank of columns suggests
the organ's low, slowly opening voice.
Paired mouths
Two adjacent openings make a visual
study of the paired tones.
Pressure released
A quiet open column and softened light
suggest the movement's final release.
Three illustrative views of one imagined kind; not life stages. Images are not to a common scale.
Habitat
Appearance & role
The middle register of the Stormglass Stair's imagined
pressure chamber, between the low stair pulse and the
high static-lark melody.
A slowly opening air-column voice. The pipe bank shown
here is an editorial interpretation of its low dyads and
quiet breath, rather than a working city mechanism.
Character & musical voice
The organ enters after the stair, opens its paired tones gradually, and releases into the final octave. Dark fundamental,
restrained breath and little vibrato; E Phrygian, 90 BPM, 5/4.
