The organ is the first polyphonic instrument, first orchestra even before the orchestra. Its sound seems to be never-ending, and its musicality evokes the idea of philosophical duration through its eternity.

The organ was the first mechanized instrument, and can be an immense machine which has existed for almost twenty three centuries.  The instrument has progressed technically in the design of  bellows, acoustics, key action transmission, and even  nowadays in the areas of electricity and electronics!
All of this is explained and detailed for you in our shop tour, which also gives you an occasion to appreciate all the techniques used at Williamson Warne & Associates, techniques which give us our reputation of quality recognized by our clients.

For those who cannot participate in a shop tour, this part of our site offers you a summary of organ history, bibliographies and discographies, links to complementary sites, and glossaries to find definitions needed in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Scandinavian.
