Just a few weeks ago we were delighted to announce another Copeman Hart organ rebuild for the parish church at St Ives near Cambridge. This week we are equally delighted to announce the next scheduled rebuild of a large Makin instrument at the Crown Church in Inverness.
We collected the organ a few weeks ago and provided the congregation with a loan instrument whilst all options from a new instrument, a small rebuild or a fully rebuild to a similar size of instrument were considered. Following a meeting of the Session, a major rebuild has now been fully approved and will now proceed with some urgency.
The console is a large Makin Drawstop console which allowed us to use the basis of our Windermere 3-53 specification, as designed by Ian Tracey and Keith Harrington, as a starting point and then to fill the jambs with additional useful stops to deliver a truly bespoke instrument.
