DHM Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 According to a post on the German-language Orgelforum a new organ is being built in St Josef's Church in Solingen, where the organist suffers from multiple sclerosis. The console is being adapted so that the pedal department is playable from one of the manuals, and the swell operated by a touchscreen. http://orgelforum.info/orgelforum/index.php?mode=thread&id=24642 http://www.solinger-tageblatt.de/Home/Solingen/Orgel-jetzt-behindertengerecht-d2804cad-a3bf-4fcb-a562-84dc83c2bc34-ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
