Church of St Thomas (Great Organ) - Strasbourg
Work on the Grand Orgue Jean-André Silbermann 1741- Alfred Kern 1979 of the church of Saint-Thomas in Strasbourg
For our company, the overhauling of this organ was the first milestone in the great history of the Silbermanns. When we got our hands on the first instrument of this dynasty, we had no idea of the path we were about to follow in the footsteps of these organbuilders.
It was also the beginning of a great admiration for the works of Alfred Kern.
It was also our first collaboration with Jean-Marie Tricoteaux, who worked on the voicing of the reed stops.
The entire organ was rebuilt.
Two gigantic new cuneiform bellows were installed. These bellows were made in collaboration with Manufacture Laurent Plet.
