1 68 DICTIONARY OF ORGAN STOPS. Tussin— 16 ft. A reed at Konigsberg Cathedral (1721). 4 A mutation stop, pitched at the interval of a twelfth above the unison. Its function, by corroborating this important natural harmonic, is to bind the Fifteenth to the Principal. It is usually made of Diapason pipes. For the ordinary accompanimental usage of a church organ, a Flute 4 ft. is certainly of greater utility than the Twelfth ; in the rebuilding of old organs on economical lines the latter stop is, therefore, frequently removed to make place for the insertion of the former. Both, of course, would normally be included in a new instrument. The Diapason Twelfth is customarily scaled one pipe less than the corresponding pipe of the Octave or Principal. Abroad the Twelfth is often constructed of Gemshorn pipes. See Harmonic Stopped Twelfth, Rauschquint, Quint. Tympani—(Lat.) = drums. Drums were frequently introduced into mediseval organs, and are not unknown in modern concert instruments. u. XJncla IVTaU'is— (Lat.) Unda = wave ; Mare = sea. 8 ft. A stop tuned slightly flat or sharp, and thereby caused to undulate like the Voix Celeste. The name was originally restricted to undulating stops of Flute tone, and the stop was either a Gedeckt or an open Flute of wood or metal. Now in England, and sometimes in Germany, Unda Maris is synonymous with Celeste, e.g., in organs by Messrs. Brindley & Foster. As made by some French builders (e.g., M. Puget, of Toulouse), the Unda Maris is produced by two pipes of slightly pronounced Quintaton character, pulsating together with pleasing effect. See Celestina. Messrs. Norman & Beard have obtained most charming effects from small-scaled Zauber- flutes, arranged under the name of Unda Maris II ranks, to beat together, one being tuned flat, the other sharp. There are instances at Norwich Cathedral, Christ Church, Lancaster Gate, W. (Norman & Beard). See also Bifara. UNTER—(Ger.) = under. A prefix equivalent to Sub. UNTERSATZ—Unterbass. (Ger.) Setzen = to set, put or place. See SUB-BOURDON.
DICTIONARY OF ORGAN STOPS. 169 V. Varitono— (Sp.) = Baryton. VENTIL A valve controlling the passage of wind to any particular department or group of stops. Having cut off the wind supply to certain stops by means of such a contrivance, it is evidently at the option of the performer to prepare any particular combination of such stops as he may desire, bringing them into operatioti by means of the ventil at the desired moment. This ventil control is normally employed in France. One of the main objections to the system rests in the fact that it imposes a constant tax on the player's memory—already sufficiently overburdened. It likewise involves a con- siderable amount of hand registration. The English system, dispensing. with ventils, secures rapid and indicatory stop manipulation by means of pistons. On the Continent, and sometimes in America, the combination pistons serve to throw the ordinary stop action out of gear, indicating this by remaining in when once pressed. The movement of a special negative or release piston (see Ausloser) once again restores the action of the stop knobs or keys. This system, however, is rapidly being discarded in America in favour of the English method of so arranging the pistons as to- throw out the stop-knobs. Mr. Hope-Jones' "Stop-switch," and Messrs. Hill & Sons' " Ventil-switch " are really ventils in the sense that they cut off the electric current from the stop action, thus enabling a combination of stops to be prepared beforehand and switched on at desire. Mr. Casson's Manual Help is also a variety of ventil switch, admitting of two or more departments of the organ being controlled by one manual. VIBRATO—See Tremulant. Viejos—A Spanish stop. Viejos = the eyebrows. The stop is said to derive its name from the shape of the cover or plug" at the top of the pipe. (Hamilton's " Catechism of the Organ "). Former organ at Seville Cathedral. VIENNA FLUTE—Wienerflote. Wien = Vienna. 8 ft. ; 4 ft. Locher remarks that the name Wienerflote lacks all historical andi etymological foundation. See Flauto Traverso. Vigessima-quarta—(Lat.) = Twenty-fourth. Vigessima-nona— (Lat.) = Twenty-ninth. Vigessima-secunda—(Lat.) = Twenty-second. Vigessima-sexta—(Lat.) = Twenty-sixth. Found in ancient Italian- organs.
