I imagine the modern "worship ' style has made, in many churches, the poor old pipe organ a tad obsolete. So well done HT Brompton for making the effort and maintaining this rather fine instrument and showing real vision.
Interesting! Presumably this is the instrument on which both Dupré and Demessieux made some recordings in the 1940's when it was in St Mark's. Nice to see that it still has the Septieme on the Choir - the 1939 R&D in Holy Rude, Stirling also originally had a Septieme (now turned into a 1 1/3') which could give an almost bell-like effect when used along with the 8' and 2' flutes
A beautiful, rather rare instrument, especially for Dupre and Demessieux having recorded on it in its original home. It desperately needs to be put on CD, and Hauptwerk'ed.
Wonderful restoration work. Please do consider increasing the production quality of the videos you post in order to showcase your superlative (IMHO) work. Organs are notoriously difficult to microphone and aren't properly captured by the built-in microphones of a handheld camera. Carrying high quality mics, booms, cables, mixing board, etc. is a grisly nuisance but will let UA-cam put your best foot forward. The world deserves to hear the sonic magic instruments built or touched by your firm can conjure.
How do you tune the Diapason 16 foot bass wooden pipe ? There are no stoppers on top of the pipe/ I also noticed a small pin by the mouth of the pipe at the bottom....... may i use that to tune it ?

Some beautiful and unusual tone colours! Thank you for sharing.

Sounds lovely!
This is a gorgeous instrument with subtlety unlike some modern instruments :-(

Well, that should give the worship band suitable competition 🤣 Lovely to hear and learn about such a rarely displayed instrument.

Lovely organ well played. The space would better serve as a classical concert hall rather than what they do with it.
Good organ. Shame the church has desecrated the sanctuary with that hideous projector screen, and a drum-kit I think I can spot too.
Absolutely agree.
Is it possible to contact you by email or other ?
