Tibia Rex Latin

Listed only by Irwin, who says:

A Flute of open construction, at 8' on the manuals, yielding an unusually powerful and heavy tone from either metal or wood pipes. It is a rare stop-name, and indicates a louder form of the Tibia Plena. It may be used in contrast with a Tibia Plena of less volume.

Rex, of course, means “king”. See Tibia.

Examples
