Biography

Organist, musicologist and inventor Hans Luedtke developed special Oskalyd extended organs and keyboards that could be used with any desired tone system. Rounded edge hexagonal shaped keys were to be arranged like honeycombs in such a way that intervals would be represented by unique vectors (i.e. a Generalized keyboard). He mentioned tunings with semi-, third-, and quartertones, methods for playing special glissandos, electronic switching between tunings or registers during performances, and he also outlined a notation system analogous to the keyboards and a direct opto-electric recording system.

  1. Unusual sounds coming from Oskalyd op. 2113 installed in 1926 at Odessa, Ukraine: Große Trommel, Kleine Trommel, Gong, Tamburin, Holzblock, Retgen, große Kirchenglocke, kleine Kirchenglocke, brechendes Glas, Schlittenglöckchen, Turmuhr, Lokomotivenpfeife, Donner, Vogel 1, Vogel 2, Kuckuck, Telephon, Automobil, Jazz (ref. orgelforum post 8868)
