NEWS FROM OUR WORKSHOP

Shires pipes shine in more American churches

4/6/2018

0 Comments

 
​An increasing number of our organ pipes are finding their way across the Atlantic.

​We were delighted to be asked to make the polished and lacquered zinc display pipes, top right, for Austin Organs of Hartford, USA.

They were made for the new, four-manual organ in the church of St John Vianney, Houston, Texas.

The polished and lacquered zinc display pipes below them were made by Terry Doyle in our Leeds workshop. They will grace the two-manual organ in First United Methodist Church, Henderson, Kentucky.

The instrument has been made by organ builder M P Rathke of Indiana as its Opus 10. We were also pleased to supply a IV-V mixture made by our mixture specialist, George Fowler.
