Martin Cooke Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 ... posted in error! Ugh! Seem to have made massive blunder in the process of posting what I hoped would be something useful and mildly interesting. My first attempt has now appeared, it seems as a 'reply' to this apology. I'm going back to bed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Cooke Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 Just now, Martin Cooke said: I am taking the liberty of posting a revised version of this with a few 'notes in the margin', as it were, and a couple of additions. Not quite sure how to keep this up to date but very happy to try from time to time! Do contribute! I was hoping to keep this to 'well known places' but realise that that may defy definition! Projects underway: Norwich Cathedral - well underway by H&H Magdalen College, Oxford - Eule instrument is in advanced stage of installation - on a recent visit to Oxford, chapel entry was not possible because of organ works. Photos and specification have emerged via British Pipe Organs facebook site - but are available here. Brasenose College, Oxford - new instrument by Orgues de facto in advanced state of installation Known imminent/future projects but no/sparse/basic details known: Bristol Cathedral - nothing new to report as at 25.10.22. Three manual viscount has been installed on a 'stand by' basis in case of breakdown. Wells Cathedral - nothing new to report Winchester Cathedral - (scheme is published - rebuild etc with Vox Humana to be added) Charterhouse School - nothing new - Nicholsons have announced new organ to replace H&H using minimal pipework from this instrument, but no actual scheme announced Gloucester Cathedral - things HAVE moved on. Organ has broken down and is out of use until Nicholsons can refurbish and renew. Imminent conclusions of schemes: Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral - H&H work ongoing Bristol Beacon - H&H work ongoing Leeds Town Hall - Nicholson work ongoing Manchester Town Hall - combined project with Flentrop - ongoing Projects (mostly) from original post now complete: St Mary, Portsea - now complete (Nicholsons) Wimborne Minster - now complete (Manders) - has anyone seen photos or comments about this? Shrewsbury Abbey - now complete (GO Organs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
