Lightly polychromed solid oak mouldings go all the way around the organcase


The organ of the "Conservatoire Supérieur", Paris
   Show CD recordings made on this instrument

Project >> Description >> Stop List

The case is made of solid French oak, discrete gilding and painting is supposed to give its appearance more vitality.

The wind system is made with three parallel one folded bellows, great and recit with common soundboards. Positive and pedal have individual bellows.

The stop action is both mechanical and electric, with 256 combinations and memory card.
The key action is directly suspended offering quick and secure repetition.

Grand Orgue

Positif

The organ is positioned about 5m below the entrance, which was important both for the case design, its proportions (taken out by Simon Platt) and the voicing.
The intensity of the sound is very different from the keyboards or in the audience. The only resonating structure of this room is the case (the panels of ceiling and walls are of materials with surfaces partly sealed ).


The console

Taking into account these circumstances we have chosen a wind pressure of only 55mm WG. The pipe shades are completely closed. The difficult struggle between evenness and vitality was often sorted out in favour of the natural pipe speech and sound.
