    1. Welcome to the Mander Organ Builders Forum

       

      Updated 27th August 2020

      F H Browne & Sons ltd is delighted to announce that it has acquired the trading name and intellectual property rights of Mander Organs Ltd. From 1st October 2020 F H Browne (Organ Builders) Ltd will revert to trading under the name Mander Organ Builders for all current and future contracts.
      Both companies are based in South East England, and three of the current FHB employees (including myself) are former employees of Mander Organs, so there are immediate synergies.

      We are delighted to have made this transition and look forward to working with our present and future customers both in the UK and Internationally.

      It is also confirmed that his forum will continue as it is now.

      Stephen Bayley
      Managing Director

    • Is the route by which the former St John's organ will end up in Kennington to remain a mystery then?
    • Nice to see a Larigot!  They seem to be rather unpopular these days for some reason.  After all, it can't be a space problem!
    • The spec` can be found on  the  H & H site; but it does involve a little bit of ferreting around to get at. The  " A _ Z " page of organs on H & H`s site shows the page to be unavailable but if you get their help page up you just type " winchester " in and hey presto it comes up!    
    • Well, this is something of a mystery as I saw it on H&H’s website, fully updated, but today that page is not available. The 1988 specification is here, the only tonal alteration being the addition of a Vox Humana 8’ on the Swell.  All else unchanged, so now an organ of 80 speaking stops.   https://npor.org.uk/survey/N00289 Perhaps I should add that the NPOR link is a little misleading in appearing to refer to Hele as a principal builder.  That was never the case and only two of their 1905 ranks survived in the 1988 rebuild, the Swell Violin Diapason and the famous Pedal Bombarde unit.
