Palestrina Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 Does anyone know whether blueprints exist anywhere for the Compton Miniatura series of organs? I don't want to go through an organ documentation process if they already do!
Barry Oakley Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 Doubtful. Several years ago I contacted the late Alistair Rushworth whose company had acquired the John Compton pipe organ business. I was horrified to learn from him that apparently all the Compton records had been discarded. I guess this also included drawings
Rowland Wateridge Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 MusingMuso is the in-house expert on all matters Compton. It’s a while since he commented (hope he is well), but maybe a private message to him would be a good idea.
john carter Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Although to the best of my knowledge he does not subscribe to this board, Chris Lawton is an enthusiast who has in-depth knowledge of, and has played, many of the Compton organs around the UK. If you search for Compton Miniatura on YouTube, you will find Chris's channel, which has contact details.
