Well, I found using bellows pressure for Schweller quite unsatisfactory

So I expect nothing overwhelming here unless you find one-fingered organ
playing interesting. Ok ok, Bach turned the "monophonic" prelude of the
solo violin partita 3 into an organ prelude, but even on organ you'd
probably want to play some phrases over more than a single manual.

I wonder how it would work with a breath controller like an EWI?
