Einiges zu diesem großen Projekt:

 

John Brombaugh, bekannter Orgelbauer aus Oregon, bat mich 1999 mit Ihm ein großes Projekt zu machen. Das hat mich damals sehr erstaunt, da unsere Werkstatt gerade 2 ½ Jahre existierte. Nun, wir lernten uns kennen und machten gemeinsam einige Orgelfahrten, so landeten wir auch in Göteborg und konnten damals das gelungene Projekt in der „Örgryte neue Kirche“ bestaunen. Näheres zu diesem Projekt finden Sie auf der Webseite: www.goart.gu.se. Hier lernte ich auch Winold van der Putten kennen, der sehr um den historischen Orgelbau bemüht ist. In dieser Zeit baute er gerade eine kleine gotische Orgel (heute zu sehen in Marsum / Niederlande). Auf der Rückfahrt von Göteborg machten wir mit einigen Orgelbauern in Roskilde (Dänemark) halt, wo man damit befasst war, das Dach des Domes wieder mit Bleiplatten zu decken. Winold van der Putten und ich waren von diesen Methoden in Göteborg und Roskilde so beeindruckt, das wir beschlossen unsere nächsten Orgelprojekte mit auf Sand gegossenen Pfeifen auszustatten, da wir erkannten, das diese Methoden doch früher im Orgelbau oft angewandt wurden.

Electric stop action with adjustable solid state combination system with multiple memory levels

Mechanical control of Swell division louvers

Metal flue pipes of finest lead/tin and/or copper alloys, hammered and voiced for vocale sound

Cone tuning for small flue pipes;     soldered hats for stopped metal pipes; all reeds tunable by resident organist

Tuned using mild unequal temperament (Kellner’s “Bach”), nicely suited to music of all periods

Wind system with wedge bellows and electric blower;  stable, but flexible

Organ to have fumed Appalachian white oak and Western red-cedar casework with appropriate moldings, gilding and other ornamentation following historic European traditions as exemplified in Builder’s work such as Brombaugh- organs Op. 26, 33, etc, but simplified so as not to clash with concert hall decor.

The Positive Left and Positive Right divisions to be in two mirrored cases at either side projecting forward from organ gallery above and behind the main stage with arrangement so performer is nicely visible to audience.  The Great and Bombarde divisions and smaller Pedal pipes will be placed in the upper Main Case.  The Swell division will be located behind nice appearing Swell shades in the central space above the Keydesk in the lower Main Case.  The larger Pedal pipes and bellows & blower of wind system will be hidden from view behind organ or be located in acoustically isolated room nearby rear of organ with floor level of organ gallery.

About this project:

John Brombaugh, a famous organ – builder from Oregon, in 1999 he planed to realise this organ together with Harm Dieder Kirschner. Kirschner was really astonished, because his shop exist since 2 ½ years. Brombaugh and Kirschner visit each other and travelled to different organ – places like Göteborg in Sweden. There they watched the new organ in the “Ögryte new church”. More details you can find on page: www.goart.gu.se. . In Göteborg Brombaugh and Kirschner met Winold van der Putten . He is a very busy person in building historical organs. He was working on an gothic instrument (you can see in Marsum / Niederlande). On the way back from Göteborg they stopped in Roskilde (Denmark). Roof maker just were busy with casting the 4 food long plates for the roof of the cathedral. They casted pure lead on sand. They took over this tradicional way fom their fathers. In the times of Arp Schnitger (*1650 +1718) organ builder used such plates for making pipes. Putten and Kirschner were really enthusiastic about this methods in Göteborg and Roskilde, so they wanted to start this methods for their following projects.
