Our client purchased this instrument for rehearsals at his holiday residence in Spain. We were asked to deliver it initially to his residence in Cardiff. Upon arrival, we were directed to his music quarters where an additional 3 Organs were installed and 2 were fully functional! We stood in amazement as he demonstrated two of them for us.
The first is a 4 manual Compton Console with a superb retrofit by Phoenix Organs. This spoke very well through the 12 channels of amplifiers and the 16-foot tall isobaric bass speaker located in the corner of the room!
The second was a Laycock with walker pipework circa 1842. Initially restored by John Banfield and some of the finest ornate cabinetry all hand-restored by the current owner. The third instrument built by the Bishops of London dated 1851 was still undergoing restoration.
It was a privilege and a pleasure to witness and hear these instruments all at one location! Also taking into account this was a private residence makes this a remarkable delivery.
