Església Sta. Maria d'Elx

Project and description >> Stop List

Since 2006, the new organ in the Basilica de Santa Maria in Elx, apart from carrying out its role as a liturgical and concert instrument, has made a significant contribution to the performances of the Misteri dElx, the mystery play which UNESCO declared worthy of a Human Heritage designation. This instrument has 47 stops spread over three manuals and pedal, and an impressive set of horizontal façade reeds.

The aesthetic approach which underlies this instrument is closely related to the organ Leonardo Fernández Dávila built in 1754 which was destroyed in the 1936 fire at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. Its voicing facilitates a mixture of sounds and sonorities and allows us play a wide variety of literature, from the Renaissance to modern times, as well as Baroque and Romantic literature.
