Archetypes - A Thought about the Organ as a Time Machine

The Hauptwerk instrument on which I play pieces from the traditional repertoire and my own music (which I hardly consider in terms of Western classical music) may be regarded as a time machine which brings the sound of ancient instruments and the refinement of the clavichord to the present age. Consequently, a piece like Archetypes can be played in the spirit of ancient organs and the clavichord:

'Time's a strange thing,' Father Crompton said.

'Of course the child wouldn't understand it was all done in the past.'
'St Augustine asked where time came from. He said it came out of the future which didn't exist yet, into the present that had no duration, and went into the past which had ceased to exist. I don't know that we can understand time any better than a child.'
(The End of the Affair, Graham Greene, 1951)
