Notes

2016-09-19 - Organ relocated without any change. Identified by Len Levasseur, based on personal knowledge of the organ. <br>The organ is based on late 17th century English chamber organs, with mechanical parts and keys based on the mid 18th century chamber organ of Calke Abbey in Derbyshire. <br>The Stopped Diapason is wood, the rest metal. The late 17th century chamber organs at Compton Wynyates and Belchamp Walter were used as models. <br>The compass is C- d³, with four available pitches. The pipes have tuning slides, for different pitches and tuning systems. <br>The case front with its gilded dummy front pipes is based on the late 17th century consort organ at Belchamp Walter in Essex. -Database Manager
