FLUTES AND BOURDONS

GRANDE ORGANO I
Bordone 16'
Flauto a camino 8'
Flauto in VIII 4'
The family of Flutes and Bourdons ranks next in importance. The sounds of these stops move from
the round and mellow tones, at 16' and 8', to the higher-pitched and more brilliant voices.
Flutes 8' and 4' on the Great offer an excellent basic accompaniment for solo Swell registrations.
Numerous solo registrations are obtainable with the stops of this family on the Swell:
RECITATIVO II
1) Bordone 8' + Corno di notte 4' + Nazardo 2
2) Bordone 8' + Nazardo 2
3) Bordone 8' + Nazardo 2
4) Bordone 8' + Corno di notte 4' + Nazardo 2
5) Bordone 8' + Nazardo 2
6) Bordone 8' + Nazardo 2
7) Bordone 8' + Flautino 2'
8) Bordone 8' + Corno di notte 4' + Terza 1
etc.
The importance of Cornet V (Ex. 1) and Cornet IV (Ex. 2) should be noted; they were frequently used
in ancient music. Flute Sesquialtera (Ex. 3) may be a good solo registration. In Pedal, Subbasso 16'
and Bordone 8' offer a perfect support for all mf combinations obtainable on the Manuals.
To the registrations described above, more may be added if Flutes and Bourdons are combined with
stops from the Foundation family. Some examples follow:
