I doubt there will be any major problems. Pipe organs vary more than pianos (according to the temperature). You'd have problems matching the organ to the piano even if both were tuned in ET.<div><br></div><div>Then, add the choir to it.... You'll have so much going on that it will all blend in.</div>

for a local community chorus. They are doing the Kyrie from Vierne’s Messe
Solennelle at a local church. The problem is that I know the organ at the
church was built to be tuned to Werkmeister III. The piece is in c# minor and
is for 2 organs. The second part is going to be played on a keyboard (it mostly
just doubles the choir). That instrument will most likely be in Equal Temperament
and most likely will not be adjustable to Werkmeister III.</span></font></p>

Werkmeister III to let me know if you think that we are headed for a major

minor if they would work better.</span></font></p>
