| Type of installation |
A
5 rank studio organ with Bourdon 16’ extended from the Gedeckt,
this all new instrument is designed for a small studio whilst retaining
the generous sound proportions of a larger instrument. The wide scaling
and gentle voicing impart a warmth and intimacy of tone. The touch is
precise and secure with a gentle pluck and quick repetition.
